Safia's POV

Brody was keeping his word and walked or drove me home whenever nobody could take me home. We didn't hang out that much, only that time of the day he took me home.

I noticed a book on Brody's car seat as I jumped in his car at the passengers side. I was looking at the book and was only able to read the first word of the title until Brody grabbed the book and placed it on the backseat. The first word I read was 'The'. Yeah I know, nothing too special but something about how the book looked seemed different.

"Oh, I probably forgot this here." Brody said about the book.

"Wait let me see." I said trying the reach for it.

"No." Brody said also trying to reach for it.

And you can already figure it out, little gap between the driver and passenger seat and our 2 faces against that gap trying to reach for the book with our hands. We haven't been that close with our face to each other than that time he almost kissed me. One move and our lips would touch. That book wasn't worth it, so I let go of the book and sat back normally in my seat. I faked a cough because of the awkwardness.

"Why can't I see that book?" I asked. What was this guy hiding?

"Euhm euhm." He said avoiding eye contact.

"Well?" I asked.

Brody's POV

What the hell do I say now? 'Hey Safia I'm interested in Islam and I'm reading about it'. Lol heck no, what if I lose interest after a few weeks. I need to say something so she would drop it immediately. Oh I know..

"Well?" She asked.

"It's.. a euhm.. a you know.. man book." I lied. If it wasn't awkward enough already..

"A what? What do you mean by a 'man book'?" She asked.

Is she serious? Where does this girl live?

"Seriously?" I said looking at her.

She raised her eyebrows and waited for an explanation.

"It's a book with naked girls in it, you cave girl." I said whilst I felt my cheeks turn red.

As so did hers and she broke eye contact. I thought she would drop it, but hell was I wrong.

"Why the freaking heck would you buy sh.. I mean trash like that?" She was angry, why was she angry. I actually found it funny, she was angry because I owned a book with naked girls in it. To be clear, I do not have a book with naked girls in it, I maybe used to have it when I was younger like any other guy but I don't own one now.
She probably things I'm a creepy oversexual dude.

"Relax it's not mine." I said trying to sooth her. I actually didn't lie, it wasn't mine.. It was Malik's.

She seemed relieved and relaxed again.

"I will kill you if you ever buy a book like that!" She said.

Cute..

"Okay promise, but if you ever bring a book out like that I would be the first-.." I couldn't even finish my sentence or she had smacked my upper arm.

"Auww" I shouted whilst rubbing the sore pot.

"Don't you dare say that again." She threatened.

"Or what?" I whispered and leaned in closer. I loved teasing her.

"Just drive you weirdo." She said pushing my chest away.
