Lets Talk

I open the door the sun is setting and the sound of my dad watching SpongeBob fills my ears. At the end of the driveway stands Luca with his hands in his jean bottoms which hug his slim stems his hair is also freshly washed and his curls tousled around his head like a bowl of spaghetti. I walk towards him and we begin walking,

"War' are we going?' He asks as we head down the street.

"I don't know, just a stroll to talk," I say staring at the pavement as he stares at me.

"Do you like Bethany?" I go in strong

"She was quite, what do yu say cagna?" He says smirking at me

"Bitchy?" I say with a slight giggle

"Yeah, she's not the type of person I want to be with," He says we both look at each other and smile.

"Hows your stay been?"

"Alright, I want to hang out with you more,"

"Your a strong one aren't ya,"

We finish our walk and head back to mine it's late now but we don't care our chats were deep and meaning full. I can't believe I had only just met this boy a day ago and now I think I really like him he makes me feel fuzzing and he is relatable and he is like a sponge he just sits and listens, I don't feel alone anymore.

"Where is your momma?" He ponders as we lay on my bed my head resting on his leg, the only light illuminating his face being the fairy lights hung up around the room.

"She died a few days ago," I answer curling into the crook of his knee,

"Sorry I shouldn't have asked," He says with a sad tone feeling bad.

"It's ok," I reassure him smiling at him.

After that, we lay there together, intertwined.

8:00am

"Shit!" I curse to myself, We're late, I yell as I throw Luca's hand off my waist and spring up I rush around my room grabbing any possible outfit I could find anything that someone wouldn't think I just spent the night with a guy type of outfit. Luca groggily scratches his eyes and gets up he was still wearing his jeans and shirt from last night and his hair was tousled and sexy so he was ready but for me, I had to pile all the troops up to beat this face and bod. After a hasty few minutes, I go running down the stairs into the kitchen where Luca is sitting on the couch, he such a lost puppy.

We get into my car turn on the engine and drive to school, sign me up for fast and furious cause dam.

I drag Luca along with me to our first class and we break into the room full volume and as we walk in were still holding hands but I let go as soon as realise their all starting I walk down the benches and stools and take my seat hearing the oohs and ahhs of people suspecting what me and Luca have done. God we just talked.

We take notes off the powerpoint as Luca just sketches over his book, he doesn't really understand all of this much so he just stays quiet and draws.

"Tiger," He whispers to me and points at a tiger wearing a bow tie he has drawn instantly a wave of grief falls over me I fall off my seat and hit my head onto the floor, all I hear next is the scurring of Luca to my aid. In my unconsciousness state, I feel dizzy,

Flashback

"Thanks so much mum for bringing me here," I say as we the walk down the track track and we see the rainforest and all the surroundings.

My Mother is a  Herpetologist meaning she studies frogs and right now she's studying an Indian tree frog that they thought was a myth, she invited me to come and she brought me out to go exploring with her in the Indian rainforest.

We keep wandering down the tracks as we hear some rustling, like the sound of paws. My heart begins racing, is it a child, a snake, an iguana?

After those first rustling sounds, we hear a growl, we stand in the middle of the tracks in shock we go back to back out in front of me a tiger approaches from the shrubs, it has a snarling face and its ready to make me the filling for its human pie. As it comes more forward I hold my mother's hand and as I do she lets go throwing herself in front of me she has more courage and bravery than me. The tiger comes creeping closer it snaps at my mother before catching the tip of her finger than her hand shaking her vigorously. It was traumatic, that beast took her. I waited for someone to come I usually spend that time crying clawing the sand in balls and throwing and holding the locket of my mother that lay near my chest I felt closer her to that way. I was finally picked up by a safari car, the police could of find her, the only remains we had of her was her severed foot.

End of Flashback

I woke up in the nurse's station on a sticky uncomfortable bed, I tried to sit up but my head was agony and thumping like thumper from Bambi, I let out a tear thinking of Bambi, his mother died as well.

"Are you ok," I rough voice says from the other side of the room,

"Yeah," I say, I've never seen this boy before?

"What happened to you?" I add

"Ah someone stabbed me with a paintbrush in art," he says

"Um ok, sorry but what's your name," I ask maybe I did hit my head hard.

"Mia? It's Blake," Oh shit I think to myself.

He jumps off the bed and grabs a wheelchair wheeling over to my side, he wipes the tear of my cheek as he gives my puppy dog eyes. I'm falling deeper into his orbs, and once I know it his hands are in my hair and he is smooching his face against mine, he leans over locking the door and pulling the blinds down. He then gets out of the wheelchair climbing onto the bed we switch so that I'm on top of him. We still make out when the door opens a nurse who is quite old interrupts.

"Uh, There's someone here for Mia?"

She says dropping her keys and grunting as she goes to pick them up but failing.

"Dear could you please?" She says as steps backwards a manly hand come into view then a head which looks up at me and Blake panting.

"Mama Mia,"

"Luca..."
