*A/n Talia has ofcourse aged since the last book, in this one she is 16. Just thought i'd point that out
(Talia's P.OV.)
Standing by the front gate was the guy who makes my heart flutter. His hair was neatly combed, it wasnt too long or to short, He wore black skinny jeans with a shirt that went from dark blue and faded into light blue and he leaned against the school post with aviators sitting on his nose. Ohmygod. Hear that? yeah, thats my heart. Why was i so nervous? wait..what am i saying. I still like him obviously. Just as i approached him Chelsea appeared out of no where.
C - "Hey Babe." Babe?
B - "Um, Hi Chelsea."
C - "Ew whats SHE doing here."
- "Excuse me i have a name."
B - "If you would like to know Chelsea, Talia and I are going to hang out. Now if you dont mind."
I giggled as Chelsea's jaw hung open.
- "Close your mouth sweet cheeks, dont wanna catch flys.'
Ben loosly threw his arm around my shoulder as we walked off. I followed him to this flash ass car.
- "Wooooh is this yours?" i looked at the logo trying to figure out the brand i think its a Mercedez, i cant tell.
B - "Yep, she's my baby." giggling i walked around to the passenger seat in which he had kindly opened the door for me.
- "Thanks Ben."
He sent me a smile before hoping into the drivers side and driving off. We sat in silence for the first couple of minutes, before he spoke up.
B - "You know Talia, you have guts to stand up to Chelsea. No ones ever done that."
- "Well, its about time someone does stand up. I want to give her a run for her money."
B - "You know, im proud of you Talia."
I looked at him with a confused expression.
- "What do you mean?"
B - "The last time i saw you, you were struggling and i could see pain in your eyes, and you were definately really...um, skinny. But now looking at you, i can see a sparkle in your eye and you look better than ever."
blushing at his comment i thanked him shyly . He turned up the radio and ofcourse, they just HAD to play Neon Lights (a/n sorry i know it happens alot but i had to) Ben began to sing along, but all i could think of was how Demi hardly spent any time with me lately or how she was always arriving home from work late. To be honest, i hated it. Ben must of noticed my change of emotion as we pulled into a frozen yoghurt place.
B - "Are you alright Talia?"
I looked up at him and gave a fake smile.
- "Im fine"
He looked at me unsure if he should quesion further or not, thankfully he let it slide and we both stepped out of the car. Walking into the shop people were whispering and staring as we both walked in. Taking a side booth we both ordered our yoghurt and spoke about school. Soon enough Paparazzi had shown up outside, there werent many, but there was still heaps. I sighed and buried my face in my hands, i had been having so much fun with Ben and they just had to show up. From across the table Ben grabbed my hand and rubbed it softly.
- "Im sorry about them, they always turn up at the wrong times."
B - "Talia, its fine. Im not worried about them. Im more worried about you, are you sure everythings okay?"
