Part 19 - "Princess, You Look Gorgeous In My Shirt"

Aliyahs POV:
Realisation hit me when today's Thursday.

Meaning I've just slept through half a day of school. Again.

I huffed as I nibbled on Ben & Jerry's fudge ice cream which Leo gave to me. Only because I got out of bed.

He also made me wear his shirt.
Which smells amazing.
But it's embarrassing.

I'm currently sat in his kitchen on one of his stools, beside a table. Leo sat opposite me putting big scoops of ice cream into his mouth, swallowing it without trouble. I rose an eyebrow at him, a smirk plastered across his face.

"What?" He spoke innocently, half finished the bowl of ice cream.

"Nothing..." I slowly spoke, blinking a few times as he swallowed down a few more spoonfuls of ice cream.

"How can you eat so quick?" I asked, getting straight to the point. Leo chuckled, his grin widening,

"I'm amazing. That's why." He winked playfully at me. I rolled my eyes again.

"So full of yourself." I muttered, digging the spoon into the ice cream and placing a load in my mouth. I peered down at the ice cream bowl, which I had ate most of.

"So about school." Leo started, a small smirk on his face. I rose an eyebrow, peering up at him.

"What about school?" I questioned, curious to know what it is he'll talk about.

"We're going to ditch school." He spoke simply. I furrowed my eyebrows together,

"Uh, why?" I questioned, putting another mouthful of ice cream into my mouth.

"Because there's no point in going to school for half a day." He stated, shrugging as he did so. I bit my lip, nodding in agreement.

However I dislike the idea of skipping school to hang out with Leo.

"So what will we do instead?" I questioned, biting my lip, carelessly playing with the ice cream, it now partly melted.

"We..." Leo grinned, his eyes glistening in excitement, "are going on a date." His eyes gazing at me. I instantly snapped my head up, my eyes opening in pure shock, my jaw dropped to the floor. Suddenly choking on my ice cream.

Which - I had no idea was
possible till now

"A what?!" I shrieked, after my choking fit had finished.

"A date. You know, where 2 people go out and do something together and then-" he rambles, his eyes filled with pure humour.

"Yes, you jerk face. I know what a date is," I cut him off, glaring at him as I dug the spoon back into the bowl, frustratedly placing the ice cream intk my mouth.

"So, now that you know what a date is. You. Plus. Me. Equals. Date." He proudly smirked. I rolled my eyes, letting out a huff,

"Why?" I groaned.

I'd much rather stay in bed watching Netflix crying over cliché films.
