Rex's POV

I pulled my phone out of my pocket as I started the cold walk home. I didn't really want to go home at all, it was always a creepy place when Dad went away. I looked back down at my phone and was just about to ring Lexie when it vibrated in my hand. I tapped the answer button and held it to my ear.

"Aaah, so you are alive then?" I head Jackson say.

"Why wouldn't I be?" I asked, slightly confused.

"Well, I've been waiting at your house, because I know you don't like being here on your own and you never turned up. I assumed Mr. Rogers had whisked you away" he said, and I could hear him trying not to laugh.

"Well he didn't, but he did help me with Chemistry, I understand it now" I said smiling, thinking back to his calm voice carefully explaining anything.

"Wow, he must be a miracle if he got you to understand Chemistry" he said, laughing. I sighed, but I was smiling as well.

"I'll see you in a sec" I said, as I hung up, put the phone in my pocket and walk the few meters to my house. I opened the door and walked into the living room. I smiled at all the duvets that were on the floor, ready for me and Jackson. I really did love Jackson as a friend.

Just as I was thinking that he walked through the door from the kitchen holding a big bag of Malteasers.

"Oh, you know me well" I said, grinning. I kicked my shoes off and sat down on the soft padding beneath me as he chucked the bag to me. He walked and sat down next to me just as I popped one into my mouth.

"So, seriously, do you like him?" he asked, for once his face serious. I sighed.

"It doesn't make any sense, I've only known him for a day, surely you can't like someone as soon as you see them?" I asked, desperately wanting answers. Jackson smiled slightly.

"Ever heard of 'love at first sight'?" he said, resting his head against the sofa. At that, my stomach twisted itself into a knot.

"I'm not in love. I can't be in love." I said, panicking slightly. "I don't want to like him, hopefully it's just a crush and I'll get over it soon" I said, hoping.

"I thought that" he said, sighing.

"What do you mean?" I asked. He looked at me and smiled sadly.

"That's what I thought when I first saw Lexie; that I'd get over it, but I haven't" he said. I moved over slightly and put my head on his shoulder. I knew how much not being with Lexie hurt him.

"If it's any help, at least you know you've got a chance with Lexie" I said. He smiled at me and then sat up.

"Come on, this is way too depressing for us, we're meant to be the fun ones" he said, grinning. I laughed.

"Alright, alright, movie?" I asked. He nodded eagerly and we sat down to watch a movie.

Mr. Roger's POV

I was sat in the pub, a pint of beer in my hand but there was something still bugging me. I knew what it was but I just didn't want to think about it. I shouldn't think about it. Or her.

A woman sat down next to me, and I could see her looking over at me but I didn't respond. It almost felt like cheating. Which was so stupid. I could see her getting ready to talk to me so I got up and walked out the pub. I didn't want to go through with rejecting her.

I walked to my car and sat in the driver's seat. I leant over and put my head in my hands. I let myself think about Rochelle now. How she smiled earlier, and how she shivered when I touched her shoulder. Holy shit. I really liked this girl, why can't she just be older. I can't risk my career for this.

I sighed and sat up. I started the engine and started to drive, I didn't know where. I was looking out the window when I caught a glimpse of a figure in the window. I stopped the car immediately. I looked into the window and couldn't help but grin at my luck. Rochelle was sat down on some duvet's smiling. She was eating Malteasers by the look of it and I shivered at how pretty she looked.

I suddenly felt guilty. I shouldn't be doing this at all. This was wrong. She was only 15, and I was 27 but I couldn't help it. I shook my head and started the engine again. I drove home and climbed instantly into my bed.

I was going to need lots of sleep if I was going to be able to cope tomorrow. I slipped into sleep easily and soon found myself dreaming of her.
