It was now Monday and mother dropped me off to school as she was trying to be nice even though I could've drove, but now I just finished and I have no idea how I'm getting home. I open my phone seeing no notifications from mother and I groan, "Hey loser" I look to see it's Justin and I give him a hug as I haven't seen him all day.
"You going now?" He asks, shoving his hands in his front pockets patiently waiting for an answer.
"Yeah just waiting on mother" I shrug, looking down and kicking the rocks on the ground.
"My mates dropping me off I can ask if you want?, don't want you waiting on your own" He laughs, suddenly my phone vibrates and finally it's mother calling "Sorry hold on" I tell Justin and he nods in response.
"Hey honey" I hear her through the phone.
"You coming?" I ask her impatiently waiting for a response.
"Actually Roman is gonna pick you up is that okay?" She says, making me groan I really don't feel like seeing him right now.
"Why?" I groan.
"Just be nice he'll he there soon got to go bye love" She says, seconds later she hangs up.
"So is she picking you up?" Justin walks closer to me and asks.
"No, Roman is" I shrug.
"Oh" He pauses. "Well message me when you're home bye Lily" He kisses my cheek and walks off, getting in his mates car before they speed off.
I start to walk looking around and my eyes land on some guy waiting against the wall up the street, definitely doesn't go to this school. I start to walk up closer and I already notice it's Roman as his height and slender appearance made him look somewhat familiar. He now notices me and starts staring straight at me I didn't even know he smoked, I look to see this group of girls walking past, they start giggling as they walk past and I don't blame them he is so attractive.

"Hey Roman" I awkwardly stand there next to him, his gaze doesn't move from me and I watch his big hands as he brings the cigarette to his plumped red lips, carefully blowing out making small puffs.
"Who was that guy?" He asks, crossing one slender leg over the over as he continues to lean against the wall.
"Who? Justin? He's a friend of mine" My eyebrows scrunch with confusion, why is he asking that?
"Alright let's go" He gets up throwing his cigarette away, "I didn't know you smoked" I said.
"It's a habit of mine" He says as we walk to his car, I sit in the passenger seat for the first time. "How old are you Roman?" I ask playing with the hem of my skirt, I hope he doesn't think I'm weird for asking but I'm so curious, curious about him.
"I'm 27" He said, I didn't notice he was looking until I finally got the confidence to look back up. "And how old are you ?" He asks, getting another cigarette out of the packet before lightening it up and putting it in his mouth.

I watch him curiously before responding, "I'll be 18 next month" I shrug. "You're still young, enjoy it" He mumbles, while blowing out puffs. "You're still young too" I saw his lips curve into a smile.
My phone vibrated and I saw Justin's name filling up the screen, he sent me like four messages.
From Justin💗:
5:15pm Lily you home?
5:30pm Are you still with him?
5:45pm Hello?
5:55pm I'm worried now, I don't trust him
To Justin 💗:
I'm fine and yeah I'm still with him and and yes I'm nearly home.
Justin💗 is typing..
"Where are you? I'll come get you"
"For fucks sake" I mumble, why doesn't he trust me? I'm not going to do anything stupid. "What's wrong?" I look up at him he genuinely looked concerned, it was kinda cute.
"Nothing" I shrug, "Is someone bothering you?" He impatiently asks.
"Don't worry about it" I look back down at my phone to text back to Justin.
To Justin💗:
I'm fine don't worry.
Delivered.
I put my phone down and look at Roman, his facial expression shows to be serious that's why I love seeing him laugh or smile because it's very rare but it's the most beautiful thing I've ever seen.
"You're staring Lily" He chuckled.
I cut out of my trance and feel the heat rush to my cheeks from embarrassment, I need to stop doing that seriously.
"Sorry, are we nearly home?" I ask.
"I'm getting you food first" He said.
"Can you just take me home?" I ask, hoping that he'll say yes. He looks at me and his serious expression came back, he looked kinda disappointed but he quickly got over it.
"Yeah that's fine" He mumbled.
Within minutes we arrived at home and I was about to say goodbye till I realised he was getting out too, who am I kidding he's in love with my mother.
I quickly walk in I could feel him behind me, I mumbled hi to mother and walk up the stairs and into my room.
I stepped in the shower, scrubbing myself with body lotion and washing my hair. I got dressed in an over sized t shirt, the sound of my stomach started grumbling. Damn I should've went to get something to eat when I had the opportunity to.
