Run (book one) 🚬 a.a #WATTYS2017

Two.

I put Angelo down for his nap before I decide to call Simon, I make sure that my bedroom door is locked so that my mother won't walk in.

It rings twice before he picks up.

"Simon Konecki, how may I be of service?" He says into the phone and I have to bite my lip to stop myself from laughing.

"It's Adele, Adele Adkins." I say simply and there's a moment of silence.

"Oh yes, Ms. Adkins. What's up?" He says and I roll my eyes at the way he's speaking.

"Why'd you give me your number?" I say and he chuckles.

"You look like a girl who wants to get into trouble." He says and I shrug my shoulders, even though he can't see me.

"I guess so." I say and again he chuckles.

"Meet me at the folly at 9:00pm tonight." He says and I gasp.

"Simon, you do realise I'm 17 years old, my mother still gives me a bed time.

"Yeah and? Sneak out." He says and I roll my eyes.

"I'll think about it Simon." I say and then hang up.

God that boy is going to get me into serious trouble. I can't help but feel excited.

My phone beeps with a message and I expect it to be my mother but it's Simon.

"Don't leave me hanging tonight Adele, we can have some fun."

I throw my phone back on my bed and once again roll my eyes, if he's on about sex he has got another thing coming.

I lay down on my bed and stare at the ceiling for a while, I think about going but every time I almost decide to go I change my mind.

I need to let loose. I really do.

I check the time, shit it's 4:00pm already, my mum will be home soon, I sit up in my bed and look over to Angelo's crib, he's beginning to stir so I get up and walk over to him.

When I get to his crib his eyes open and I smile.

"Hi baby!" I say and he looks up at me sleepily.

I pick him up and I place him on my hip, I walk to my door and unlock it, I walk out into the hallway and I can already smell my mothers strong smelling perfume.

I walk into the kitchen and smile at her, she gives me a tight lipped smile back and I fight the urge to roll my eyes.

"How was your day mother?" I ask her as I set Angelo down on his chair.

"It was good. You?" She asks and I nod my head.

"It was good." I simply say and she nods.

That's just the general conversation with me and my mother, even when I was a child.

It got even worse when Angelo came along, I was a disgrace to her, I still am.

"I like Angelo's outfit." She says and I smile at the fact she acknowledged him.

"It's cute isn't it?" I say with a smile and she smiles slightly.

"Will I make dinner tonight mother?" I ask and she shakes her head no.

"I'll do it, it's ok." She says and I nod my head.

••••••••••

I get Angelo into his pyjamas and place him in his crib. He smiles up at me and I smile at him.

"Love you mumma." He says as I smile.

"Love you baby." I say and he smiles as he gets comfortable and closes his eyes.

I sit there for a while, keeping an eye on the time, it's almost 8:30pm so the moment I know Angelo is asleep, I start to prepare myself to meet Simon.

I decide to text him before I make my escape out of the house.

"See you at 9:00 Simon."

I simply say, I put my shoes and coat on and place my phone in the pocket.

I give Angelo a kiss on his head and slowly make my way out of my bedroom.

Remind me why I'm doing this again?
