Fix me. (Miniminter)

Falling.

I look up to him as he ponders on what we should do, the concentration in his face made me smile. It's weird someone actually wanting to spend their time with me.

"I know where I'm taking you." He smirks towards me finishing off his drink and taking my empty cup into the kitchen. "You better go and get ready quickly, don't wanna waste the entire day, it's already 4." He tells me as if he was my father. "Okay dad." I say sarcastically and stand up walking upstairs to my bedroom.

I had a quick shower, drying my hair and putting on some light makeup. I wasn't sure on what to wear, I didn't even know where we were going. "Simon where are we going so I know what to wear?!" I shout down the stairs as he just laughs. What?

"Wear something casual, but you wouldn't mind getting a bit dirty." He tells me, we better not be doing anything stupid.

I just throw on some old leggings and a black top, if I get cold I'll just put Simons hoodie on.

I jog down the stairs as simon looks at me and smiles, he was just wearing the same jeans as yesterday and a blue SDMN top.

"You look beautiful." He tells me.

Hardly beautiful, I'm barely wearing any makeup, I'm in old baggy clothes. My hair has natural and slightly damp and my skin slightly spotty and discoloured. But somehow he made me feel like I was in fact beautiful. I felt my heart ache, what is this boy doing to me?

"Thanks." I simply say quietly, walking past him and putting my shoes on, just some old plain black vans. "Ready?" I ask unlocked the door, not realising he was standing right behind me, towering above.

"Yep." He smiled as we both walked outside towards his large red car. I hop into the passengers seat and fasten my seatbelt, looking over to him as he gets in after me, doing the same. "Where are we actually going then?" I asked crossing my arms over my chest.

He turned to me and smiled, starting the engine before pulling out of the drive. "We are going go karting. So hopefully you can at least drive a go kart." He told me as we pulled out on to the main road. "I've never been before." I told him with a chuckle.

I could honestly say I was excited, I liked doing things like this but my family never really get round to doing outdoor activities.

I texted my mum telling her that I was going to be out when she got home and that the key was underneath the door mat.

The car journey was about half an hour down the motorway and it was fun, we both talked about random stuff getting to know each other better. I know more about his youtube channel and how it has grown, I didn't speak much about me. I was more of a listener, although I did tell him the story of how my dad wasn't actually my dad. My real dad is some drunk who lives in a studio apartment somewhere in America, he left me and my mum when I was very young, just before she met Adam. He is my dad, that's how I see him.

We arrived at the venue and got out of the car, he must have booked it whilst I was getting ready because they seemed to be expecting us.

"Ahh here's the young couple, your ten minutes late!" He said walking up to us at the entrance. "Oh no we aren't- Um, we aren't together." I awkwardly tell him scratching my head. "Oh okay, not a couple yet. Got it." I could tell what he was implying and just chuckled shaking my head. "Your karts and helmets are around here."

He led us both into a back room fitting on our helmets and suits. I tied my hair up and pulled the helmet over my face as the man did it up for me. We were then led out to the track, our karts sat at the entrance. We were assigned to the right one, tackled up and told how to drive with the controls, it was simple enough.

"You have 30 laps, should take around 15 minutes. First to finish wins, simple enough?" He tells us standing in front of us both. Simon starts revving his engine up, trying to tease me. I just do the same back with a smirk.

"3..2..1......GO!" We both hear and zoom off to the first corner, Simon was in front being a bit of a show off, I just chuckle to myself following closely behind. It was pretty neutral for a couple of laps until I found a gap and quickly overtook him, laughing hysterically to myself as I sped off in front. I could guarantee he was angry he wasn't winning.

We eventually get to the last lap and I was miles in front, going past the finish line a good ten seconds before him.

I jumped out and handed my helmet back to the man, watching Simon exit his kart. "She cheated!" He laughed, finding any excuse for him to be able to come first.

We finished up at the venue and walked out towards a local coffee shop, just ordering us both a regular latte and some fries to share between us both. We sat next to the window, admiring the people walking past.

"Still can't believe you won." He smirked down to his coffee cup that was a few inches away from his lips.

"To be honest neither can I." I laugh along and hold my plastic cup in my hands, heating them up. "I really did have fun today." I smiled up to him, genuinely meaning it. It was one of the funniest days I've had in a long time.

We sat talking about the race for a few more minutes until I looked down at the time, realising it was already 7pm. "Wow, time really has gone by quickly." I say locking my phone.

"Fancy going to see a film?" He asks with a casual expression. That seemed to me like a date, a normal date. I hope thats how he saw it too. I look down to my hands and smile softly nodding my head. "Yeah that'll be nice." I say looking back up to him as he finished off his drink. I didn't finish mine but just left it in front of me as Simon put down the money needed to pay for our table.

We walked outside to the streets of London and looked around at all the people. "There's no point driving the traffic will be brutal." He tells me, which is true. It's only a ten minute walk to the cinema anyway.

We head off on our journey, scooting past people walking in the opposite direction rhythmically. Then he did something I'll never forget, he reached over, grabbing my hand and intertwining our fingers together. He didn't even look at me, he just did it. It felt like my heart was beating through my chest, the feeling of his skin against mine was incredible. I don't even know why he did it. I mean it's not like we are a couple, we aren't even together. I'm not even sure if this is even a date. But I didn't care.

I squeezed his hand tightly as we walked, our steps in sync even though his legs were a lot longer than mine. I swear I was already in love with this boy, which was a bad sign. It scared me a little.

My relationship with Chris was never like this. I never felt this way about anybody. I hope this doesn't fall apart, I needed to make a decision about where my heart was going. I don't want to get hurt, what if he doesn't feel the same way? Am I just wasting my time feeling this way?

What if he turns out to be another Chris? I need to give him a chance. If my heart gets broken I guess it will be my own fault.
