I Like Your Eyes

1

Hi I'm Gerard, I'm 17 I'm school drop out, I have no parents they both died on a boat accident when I was 12.
I live with my auntie and her dog, she has no kids nor is she in a relationship. I don't really have friends I've just got one great friend, I've known her since I was 6 and she was 5, if I didn't have her I'd probably be dead by now.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The crashing waves rumbled as they pounded against the sand, relaxing the boy who sat close by on a bench, in a sense this place was like a burial ground to him as his parents had died there, and there bodies still lay somewhere out there surrounded by the ocean.
Buzz. Buzz. His phone vibrated in his pocket he pulled it out to answer. He takes in a breath before he talks "hi" he says glumly. "Hey" Ash's voice comes threw the speaker.
"Is this a bad time?" She asks, "no," he says "shouldn't you be at school though?" "Nah I just woke up" she says.
I bet she doesn't know what time it is yet. "Do you know what time it is?" He asks. He doesn't expect her to say goodbye after she checks the time. "Oh sugar honey ice tea-" Beep! Beep! He here's coming threw instead of her voice. He chuckles to himself.
Well better get to work then. He thinks.
It's eleven forty five o'clock, he grabs his skateboard and rides to the other side of town to the rocket coffee and cafe, as he walks in the door a little bell above him rings. As it does Jennifer his boss sticks her head out from behind the coffee machine,
"Hi rardy" she greets him with the nickname she gave him. "Hey Jessica." He replies.
"Can you take the till please" she smiles. as he goes to the counter she disappears into the back room.
After ten minutes of waiting behind the till 5 girls walk into the cafe they all look at him then go to sit at a table, after a few minutes of looking at the coffee board, one of them walks over to the serving bench she's still looking at the board before she talks. "Can I have a mochachino, two latte's-" she begins, Gerard start to write down her order. "A flat white and chia-latte. All large." She smiled at the end, and when Gerard looked up she looked into his eyes. It actually made him feel very uncomfortable.
"Ahem" he coughed to brake the awkward moment. "Is that all?" He asked the girl, "yes thanks." She said still looking at him. "Ok you can umm go sit down now and I'll bring the drinks over soon." He nodded and then turned to the machine.
She went and sat down with her friends. He could tell they were all looking at him, every girl did, even some guys, he's been told he has the nicest eyes and an amazing jaw line but he didn't see it when he looked in the mirror he was disgusted and sick of seeing his face but hey, he thought, I'm aloud to be sick of my face. It's my face.
He finished the order and went over to the table "one latte-" he handed out the drinks to them and as he turned to walk away he heard someone talk to him. "Wait up!" She said. When he turned around he saw it was the girl who had ordered, she looked at his name tag. "Ah, my friend wanted you to have this." She lifted up her hand and between her finger tips there was a small note, Gerard took the note then looked at the rest of the girls one of them smiled and waved at him, she had dark skin and dark curly her. He smiled back even though he wasn't interested. "Thanks." He said and turned back around and walked away. The girls left shortly after that.
He worked until four thirty then headed home. He got back to the small house a little while later and he went into the backyard were he found scruffy his dog, he named him when he was seven.
He lay under the tall oak tree while his dog jumped around. Then he stood up and threw the dogs ball then went inside the house were he found his auntie in the kitchen cookie dinner.
"Hey aunt Cassy." He says. "Hi Hon." She says. "Good day?" She asks. He puts his bag on the table and his skate board by the door. "Eh, probably just as good as yours." He answers. "Oh that boring?" She answer. ''Ah yea." He says, "I'm gonna have a shower Kay" he says while walking down the hall. "Okay." She says.
He gets in the shower and turns it onto hot, the hot water runs down his back and relaxes his whole body. After his shower he goes to his room and lies down, he calls his best friend after some piece and quiet. It rings three times before she picks up. "Hey Gee." She says after she answers. "Hey Ash. How was your day?" He asks. "Well." She begins. "Ya know Sandra!?" She asks sarcastically but continues before he can reply "that bitch was teasing me all day about how I broke up with Jeff and now that dick is going out with her. Man whore. And every time I see them she makes out with him, and it really hurts that he's doing that to me-" she talked for another five minutes then finally asked him what his day was like, he explained everything that happened.
"Do you wanna meet up?" Ash asks "yea sure, were?" He asks. "Meet me at the main beach in that cave we found, my parents are doing my head in so bring some alcohol k?" She says. "Kay" he said. "I think auntie just bought cider so we're good." He says. "But I'll have to wait till she goes to bed cause she doesn't like me going out at night." he says playing with the draw strings on his hoodie. "Sweet as, when will you get there?" She asks. "One AM" he says. "Ok see ya then." She says. "Kk" he says then hangs up.
After dinner he waits until twelve thirty until the house falls silent then he goes down stairs and into the kitchen he looks threw the big cupboard until he finds four bottles of cider at the back of the little room, he grabs one, and checks the flavour, strawberry and lime, yes my favorite, I thinks to himself.
20 minutes later he gets to the beach and walks around to the cave they found a few years ago. When he get there she's already there holding four beers. "Found these in dad's room." She says. "They were arguing to much to notice me leave." She smirks at her victory. "Hah! Great I got this." He pulls out the cider from his jacket, "great!" She says, "I need to get drunk." She says He sits down and they open the drinks and stay there the rest of the night.
