This will mostly be done in Jeffrey's POV sorry to disappoint you
(Jeffrey's POV)
The rain pouring down heavier with each step we took walking down the cement path, Zane apparently lives quite far from here although I never see him take the car with his brothers he always seems to be walking here.
I look down at the boy considering his height was quite small, his eyes fixated on the pathway in front of us, he seemed to be shaking a little bit and on further inspection I can see that his shoulder is getting a little wet, my umbrella is only for one so we're already a little too close and I wanted to abide by his wishes.
"Zane are you all right? You seem cold and your shoulders getting wet, step a Little Closer"I said to him moving closer to his small body, he seems hesitant but did as I told and stepped closer. I smiled at his obedience, but he is still shaking from the cold air, well you can't blame him he's probably been standing outside since the bell ring after school and it's already been an hour and a half since then, I looked at him and got an idea the rain never bothered me anyway (WHY DOES EVERYONE DO THIS I ALWAYS SEE A FROZEN REFERENCE IN EVERY FANFICTION I READ AND NOW IT'S IN THIS ONE)
I've always found comfort in rain, the soothing smell, the light pitter patter on the window as I read my book, it all is just calming and mystical in my opinion, so I wouldn't mind doing this.
"Zane could you hold this for a moment"I say to him nudging the candy cane like handle at his hand,"o-oh ummm yeah s-sure"he seemed to be stuttering from the cold but also something else I couldn't quite put my finger on it. I hand him the umbrella and start to undo my school uniform coat,'you're such a cliche Jeffrey, taking your coat off for a cold Damsel in Distress err, well, actually, manzil in the rain, I chuckle at my inner thoughts
Yes this was a low blow but maybe it would work and I can't just leave him shaking and cold. I undo the last of my buttons and take off the jacket placing it upon his shoulders, he flinched at the sudden warmth and seem to have gotten more fluster than before, I can't lie, that was quite adorable.
"W-w-what are you d-doing"he stuttered trying to take the jacket off and give it to me, but I placed both my hands on his shoulders and said"you're much older than I am, you can wear this until we get back to your house, again I don't want you getting a cold, it would be quite devastating not to see you the next day"I said to him whilst taking the umbrella and starting to walk forward again, not giving him a chance to take off the jacket. He just gave a soft ok
And we started walking again, I snuck a few side glances to see him gripping onto the fabric of my coat as it snugly wrapped around him, being about four sizes too big for him it covered most of him with ease, I can see a small Sparkle in his eye and I knew exactly what that was, he was smiling and I'm glad for that fact he's smiling because of me.
"Hey can we stop for a second, this Cafe gives out really good hot chocolate and it's cold and, I guess I can buy you one for letting me walk with you, you don't have to if you don't want to it's just a suggestion I guess I just"he kept mumbling on in a cute way, I gave him a full Hardy chuckle while pulling him underneath the overhang at the front of the cafe
"hot chocolate sounds delightful right now Zane but you don't need to buy it, I'd prefer if you use that money for eating lunch for once in your life"
I said to him teasing him at the end of my sentence
"HEY just because I don't like eating during the early evenings does not mean I don'-"his sentence was cut off by a slight grumble in his stomach only barely coherent, but just enough for me to hear, "well what time do you eat?"I questioned him"because your stomach is kind of giving you away"he huffed annoyed at my observation and said
"I usually eat an hour after I get home which was half an hour ago".
I give him a slight nod and repackage the umbrella into its former states where it wouldn't be a nuisance to anybody, I hold the door open for him he gives me a slight thanks and we walk in, Zane goes ahead and sits at a booth right next to the window, I gladly sit across from him and we look through the menus searching for what we would be consuming, a boy with blonde hair and red eyes walks up to our table holding a notepad and pen, he looked to be around 18 or 19. His sleeves were rolled up a bit showing off a tattoo that's on his left arm, The tattoo consisted of dark ink making his flesh look ripped and mechanical bone underneath with the mangled skin,
"Hello my name is Jackson, do you two know what you're ordering or do you need some more time"he had a nice deep Bro voice, but you can tell he wasn't a dumb blonde, my gaze shifted to Zane, and then back to the waiter who's gaze also shifted to the black haired Beauty, looking him up and down like a piece of meat."I'll have the dark hot chocolate and the Pagan sandwich please"I say to him giving him a slight Death Stare,"ya ya ok now how about you sweet thing~"he said discarding my presents while looking directly at Zane placing his elbow on the table resting his head upon his palm,"O-oh ummm Vanilla hot chocolate and carrot cake please"he said a slight blush spreading across what skin showed of his face."Hot chocolate for someone as hot as you, you might set the place on fire~"
He purred in a flirtatious voice, a sly smirk spread across face, okay now I'm getting angry,
"Ahem that is all"I said to him poison dripping from my voice, Zane was taken aback by this and looked at me, his eye widen a slight bit, he looked between me and Jackson and then rested his eyes on me, he gave me a slight smile (from what I can tell) whilst tilting his head a little, I knew he was trying to calm me down, and it worked seeing his eye so soft and caring, it made my heart want to melt
"That'll be all thank you sir"Zane said not taking his eyes off of me, and I'm glad he didn't. The waiter left after looking between us as we stared contently at each other, he huffed with a voice of defeat and walked away, probably thinking we were together and thinking of a way to steal Zane away from me, which was not going to happen. I suddenly felt a buzz in my pocket coming from my phone indicating I have a text message from someone, unfortunately I broke our eye contact to look down at my pocket and pull it out, Zane just look the other way into the Rainy Street not wanting to intrude on my privacy. I open up my phone and look at who texted me, my heart sank a little looking at the contact name, I had completely forgotten about them in a few minutes I've been with Zane even if I knew them for most of my life, I didn't know Zane had such a power over me, I didn't think he could make me forget like that to have me in such a state of bliss that I would forget about her, I can't believe you made me forget about
Katelyn.
I'm sorry I was on a roll but then I stopped to go draw stuff and now I forget what the plot was so I'm just going to have to think up a new one sorry just stopped this out of the blue part 3 will come up soon
