I didn't knew that I was Starving,

Until I tasted you.

Chapter 13

Anxiously I stood in front of his doorstep. I had no idea why I could have been this nervous, but it did bother me a lot. We would just go to the fair like two classmates. In the end I was even the one who asked him to go tonight.

I rang the bell whilst I played with my clammy fingers. After a couple of minutes the door was opened by a short and small woman, probably Skylar his mom.

She had the same eyes that Skylar had, but did have long brown hair instead of Skylar's platinum blonde color. The woman had this friendly aura around her and smiled warmly at me, she was honestly a beautiful mother.

"You're probably here for Skylar" She said which made me nod right after that.

"He will be here in any minute, do you want something to drink or eat in the meanwhile honey?" She asked very politely.

"No it's fine, thank you a lot miss. I will just wait right here" I answered fast.

"Oh honey, you can call me Cheryl" She laughed.

"Sure mi- uh I mean Cheryl" I said.

As if it was the perfect timing, Skylar came downstairs who instantly shot an unforgettable smile at me.

My heart skipped a beat.

For a second I didn't know what to say and I only could stare at him like a fool. His hair was perfectly styled back with a bit of gel. He wore a basic black shirt with a brown leather jacket and a dark jeans. The real smile he wore, made his colorful blue eyes practically shine like the sun.

He looked so different than usual.

"Cam?" Skylar interrupted me from my thoughts then.

"Yes?"

"Are we going? Or is something wrong?" He asked suddenly a bit paranoid.

"N-no, we can go.." I said while pointing at my bike.

My eyes fell on Skylar's mom for a second, who suddenly started to smile in the creepiest way towards us.

Huh.. Did I miss something?

"Have fun you two and don't do something that I wouldn't do" She smirked while winking.

"Mom!" Skylar yelled.

Confused I shook my head while letting out a soft laugh. I said goodbye to his mom before Skylar and I started to bike our ways to the fair.

Once arrived, we walked a bit around the place. There fell a painful silence between the two of us and I didn't know what I should say without making it any more awkward than it already was.

"Can we go in there?!" Skylar suddenly asked with wide eyes.

I looked towards the way he was looking at and noticed what he meant by that. A smirk erupted my face as I looked at him and nodded very fast. He grabbed my hand whilst laughing and dragging me to the paying booth.
