You Will Be Okay Here: Christian Novelli

Chapter Thirty

Anna POV:

These last few weeks have been insane - in a good way - hanging out with loads of people, doing different things. It was like I was finally free; Spent my owed time in prison and now I am free to rule the world. What a feeling! Slowly, Christian had introduced me to his friends so it wasn't too overwhelming for me and I was adapting to my new hometown pretty well. The weather was so unpredictable which I didn't like but other than that, i really enjoy it. Basically, Christian and I slept in to about lunchtime but laid for a while after just cuddling and talking until we had enough energy to get up and ready etc. We did what we liked until about 6ish when we grabbed our penny boards and went skating with our friends. The group of us hung around most of the night, usually going back to someones for a bit of a party or whatever until early hours of the morning before Christian and I go back home. They were all pretty awesome and I got on particularly well with Timmy but they don't even come close to matching how great Patty, Jason, Luke, Karim and others are back in the UK.

I miss them so much.

"The funniest thing I have ever seen was a hilarious picture of our boy Christian when he was what? 8 or something?" Damon laughed pointing to Christian. "Ever seen it Anna?" I shook my head, I hadn't really thought about what he would look like when he was younger. I guess we are just 'living the now' or whatever the saying is. "Ohhh go get it Christian!"

"I think I burned it actually" He giggled, "Also, for your information, it was 9 and let's just say puberty has been very kind to me!"

"I got it!" Adam, Timmy's brother, yelled. "It's on ya Insta mate"

"Oh gosh" Christian muttered, "Please still love me Anna" he whispered light-heartedly.

"Christian, of course. Love you forever" I smiled and cringed a little knowing how cheesy that sounded. Suddenly, Adam thrusted his phone in front of my face with a picture of a small, happy boy. "Oh my God!" I covered my mouth with both of my hands trying to prevent me from laughing out loud too much. "Oh my god" I repeated. "Bless you" I kissed him on the lips quickly before I chuckled again.

"So, do you have any pictures of when you were younger?" Christian asked, while Damon showed Timmy a baby pic of him.

"I'm not sure to be honest. I dunno. Haven't seen any"

"oh"

"Well I didn't pack any. Sue might find some when she clears the house out for her next clients or tenants or whatever they are called" The next lot of people who will rent out that house off her. As far as I could remember, they weren't really the ones who took many photographs, they would rather just live the moment as it would always be in their memory. Obviously, I must not have received my love of photography from my parents. "I'll email here later and see".

"Yeah, I bet you are really cute... well more so than now" Christian winked. Leaning in, we kissed each other on the lips.

"Come on guys, I feel ill as it is!" Damon clutched his stomach, being over-dramatic which made us all laugh.

"You're only jealous" I stuck my tongue out at him and he did the same back to me jokingly. They were all great friends, but nothing like Patty.
