"Stop doing that!!!!" i shout in anger.

"You know, we better get going home" Changing the subject once again, but this time i let it slide.

An awkward silence passes us by

"Yeah about that... i don't have a home, well i do but i can't go back" i say stumbling on my words

Charlie stands up with his arm reaching out to me. I connect my hand with his and pull myself up. He drags me back into the forest, walking back to i assume the skatepark, pulling me with him.

He remains at mute.

Trying to keep up with him whilst avoiding bumping into trees or tripping up on Charlie's feet we get to the skatepark...but we carry on walking.

Out of the entrance gate

Crossing the road

Turning a corner

Walking up a narrow street

Down an alley with a single dim flickering lamp post

Turned a sharp right

Walking onto the main road

"Where are we going?"

We stop.

He stands still, no movement, no words .

I'm not sure whether he is mad or just being awkward

"My place" he says while proceeding to walk on i speak

"Why are you taking me with you?"

He shook his head; still walking he replied

"You need a place to crash right? so you can stay at mine"

"1. You can get let go of me, it's not like i'm going to run away from you" he slowly unwraps each finger, dropping his hand back to his side, still walking ahead with concentration on the path ahead, not looking back at me even once

"And 2. What are your parents going to think? They'll probably think i'm some sort of hooker!" i exclaimed

Finally turning around to face me

"My parent is out of town." Emphasising 'parent' shit.. how did i forget! As i was about to apologise he continues talking discarding my error

"I have the place all to myself for the week" he winked

---------- next day---------

The sun peaked through the cream curtains, shining into my eyes. Squealing i jump onto my side and shove my head under the covers hitting my head onto something...human like?

I open one eye, close it and reopen making sure what i have seen was actually there then suddenly both eyes shoot open!

Now thats not what you see everyday!

A tanned, clearly worked out body was laying right next to me.

I come up from under the covers to find Charlie rubbing his eyes whilst smirking.

Seriously. Charlie though. Oh come on!

"Morning babe"

"Don't call me that!" i snap in disappointment. I thought the dream i had last night came true. Yes i dreamt that me and Blake had something 'special' going on. Don't ask.

Coming to a realisation that i was in bed, with Charlie, in a room i've never seen before. It hit me like a ton of bricks! I completely forgot about yesterday.

Charlie let me stay the night, i was crashed onto his bed whilst he was making his mum's bed for me to sleep in. He told me that he can never fall asleep unless he is in his own bed or Blake's bottom bunk bed, weird right?
I ended up dozing off and here i am. In Charlie's bed. No, not like that!

Getting out of bed, i do a 5 minute stretch. Sleeping in your clothes is not comfortable!

"Um, thanks for letting me stay the night, i better get going" i hug him and follow the spiral staircase downstairs

"Taylor"

I close the door behind me

"Taylor"

I look up to see Charlie half way out the window

"Go to the skatepark, now. Don't question me, just go"

Sorry this chapter sucks. My mind has been blank lately, sorry. Oh and sorry if there's any mistakes. Next chapter should be good.
