Until I Met The World

Chapter 9

I don't want to be but I can't help but be curious about them. Harry, Dylan, and the others in their group, I mean.

Why is Sebastian so intimidated by them? They really can't be that bad given the impressions they gave off when I talked to them.

Sure, Harry started off rude but he was drunk and the second he sobered up he became a complete gentleman. He apologized to me and also took care of Ariana in her sloppy incoherent state.

Although, I did chose to ignore the fact he had sex with her moments before while she was not completely in the right mind set.

Nonetheless, he seemed decent. Just a normal teenager. That sells drugs.

Maybe that's what Sebastian knows. I can't believe I neglected that thought from occurring. Bash has low tolerance to people who are in anyway involved with drugs, maybe he doesn't like them because they're all potheads or something.

Yet another reason not to let him know about that side of my life.

"Hello? Earth to Em? Damn, you're in your own world today," Sebastian breaks through my thoughts to bring me back to reality in a nice tone "What are you thinking about?"

"Oh um nothing.. just trying to make sure I have everything I'll need for Greece." Thinking about it now, I'm really not sure if I have everything id want to bring.

"Do you? We can run by the mall or something if you need to get some stuff." Bash suggests.

I can't think of anything at the moment and I don't want to make him wait for me to try and decide so I decline.

"No that's fine, thanks though" Looking over at Sebastian, his eyes are blazing blue in the sunlight and he only has one hand on the steering wheel. He catches me staring at him after a few more seconds of taking in how he is right now, carefree and honest. I turn my attention outside and begin to wonder where we're going. I didn't feel the need to ask earlier but these streets are looking less and less fimilar and I assumed he'd take me home or let me know.

"Where are we going?" I say out of curiosity still watching as the trees move fast behind us as he drives down the open road.

Sebastian slightly chuckles and I'm more confused than ever. "You really are in your own world, aren't you?" No judgement in his voice, only amusement. "To Nicks, only real fast. You can stay in the car if you want. I just have to pick something up."

"Oh okay, what is it?" I can't help that I'm a nosey person and if that bothers him, he never shows it. But right now, he looks as if he'd rather me ask any other question besides that.

"Just some money, I did some work for him awhile back and he never got a chance to pay me," Some work? I didn't think there was anything in Sebastian's life that I didn't know about. And as I watch him, he shifts uncomfortably on his seat a little and blinks a couple times. Something he only does when he feels guilty. So being the bitch I am, I make it my goal to get some answers out of him.

"What kind of work?"

Shaking his head a little knowing id keep pestering him until I found out, he answers. "It's not really important. I just helped him out as a friend. He doesn't really want me talking about it"

"Well that's okay, you don't have to tell me.... your bestfriend... that has told you almost everything there is to know about her very interesting life," making sure I say 'almost' to avoid a lie.

"Also you know... your bestfriend that ALWAYS always always tells you things you want to know when you ask. But no, it's fine. You can have your secrets too, I get it." I can see him questioning whether he should answer truthfully or give me some bullshit to get me off his back.
