Baby Blues

16. Hair

Sitting on a bench outside the hospital while swinging my legs I focused on a stone on the ground to pass time. Ever since Kevin and I talked on that night things between us got better. I adjusted my attitude towards our relationship and put better effort in getting to know him.

My phone rang and I picked it up after seeing baby blue on the screen

"Hello"

"Hey beautiful, where are you?"

"I'm on a bench across the road" I looked around and saw him walking out of the hospital doors in his uniform and a coat. He had a cute little frown on his face as he looked around "Over here handsome" I yelled waving my hand

He scrunched up his face and moved the phone away from his ear

"Sorry" I whispered into the phone and cut

He sat down and crossed his legs "What were you trying to do? Blow my ear off"

"I forgot I still had the phone close to my mouth"

His hair had grown longer and I found myself liking it this way. The only downside was it somehow kept covering his eyes and I didn't like that. I ran my hands through it pushing it to the side

"I'll cut it during the weekend"

"I don't know... I think I like it this way, maybe you should try Danny's look. I bet you would look hot in it. You know he has this Harry Styles kind of thing going on... so hot"

"Bridget" He put up a straight face or at least tried. I could see the corners of his mouth tilting up to a smile "are you hitting on one of my best friends"

"Nope" I popped the p "I'm hitting on his awesome hair"

"Well he is doing business so he can work with it. I don't think I can besides it keeps covering my eyes making it hard for me to see and my attending passed a comment about me looking homeless"

"Screw him"

"It's a she" he corrected smiling at me

"Screw her"

"I'd love to see that" he chuckled and I smacked his arm

Looking towards the hospital door there was a girl facing our direction. She was standing with a group of girls but her attention was on us or better yet Kevin. She was so focused that she hadn't even realised that I was looking at her

Kevin blocked my view with his face "What are you looking at? What's more interesting than me?"

"The girl by the door who can't seem to tear her eyes away from you"

I waved at her just before Kevin turned around. Her eyes grew wide and she quickly looked away. I could see her face go red even from where I was

"Oh that's Joey" he shrugged "she's in her third year"

"Ï see she has a crush on you, she's been looking at you so much it's starting to get on my nerves"

"Are you jealous?" he smirked

"No" I folded my arms across my chest defensively

Of course I was jealous but I didn't have to admit it. I noticed that he kept brushing his hair off his face from time to time so I had an idea. Standing up I went behind the bench and took the band out of my hair using it to tie half of his up and leaving the other half down "There we go" I admired my handy work before going back to sit

He took out his phone and used it as a mirror "I look like a guy who just let his girlfriend touch his hair. Drake's gonna have a field day with this"
