Be Mine! Part 1

Chapter 15

Katy's POV
That evening I walked home and threw myself onto the sofa. I had the kettle boiling as I sat there, staring at the walls. I felt so bad. I hardly spoke to Sal. I knew I had to fix it but I had no idea how to I tried to forget about Sal and just watch some tv. I walked into the kitchen as I poured myself a cup of tea. The door knocked furiously which made me jump. I could see the outline of someone stood outside my door. I slowly walked up to the door and opened it. To my surprise it was Sal holding a basket.
"What are you doing here?" I asked, acting as if I wasn't happy to see him, but I was.
"Well it's Tuesday! And every Tuesday for five years we have always spent the evening together so!" Sal said.
"What about Claire?" I asked, knowing she would hate this.
"Well I haven't invited her!" Sal joked. "She doesn't know I'm here but I've bought a film and some treats so" he said. I couldn't help but smile.
"Come in!" I said as he walked through.
"So I have your favourite films and your favourite chocolates!" Sal told me as he set up the film.
"Wouldn't Claire hate this?!" I pointed out. He acted as though he thought about it then said
"Who cares!" With a smile. I smiled back as he sat next to me on the sofa. I got a blanket and placed it over our legs. Sal opened the box of chocolates. I took one he also did. I hid the flavour from him
"What flavour have I picked?!" I quizzed him.
"If I know you.... Orange!" He guessed.
"Correct and you have... caramel!!" I also guessed.
"Yes!!" He replied and laughed. We watched the film until Sal's phone began to ring. He glanced down at his and muted whoever it was.
"Claire?!" I asked.
"Well...yeah, but this is our time so she can wait" Sal said to me. I rested my head on his shoulder and eventually fell asleep and so did he. I woke up, in the same position at 1:04 am. I slowly got up and realised Sal had his arm wrapped around me, peacefully asleep. He looked so cute asleep and I really didn't want to wake him up but I knew I should. I gently caressed the side of his face and brushed his hair to one side. He slowly woke up. He looked quite tired but his face lit up when he saw me. He gave me a warm smile. I just wanted to cuddle back in his warm arms but I knew he would probably want to get home.
"It's gone 1 am babe" I said. I felt my cheeks burning red with embarrassment that I said 'babe'. He laughed for a bit.
"Thanks babe" he said, however he said it in a genuine way.
"Sorry 'bout that" I said to him.
"I like it" he said. We stared into eachothers eyes until his phone broke the silence. He glanced down at his phone and saw it was 'Claire'.
"Hello?" He began.
"Where are you?" Claire asked. Sal looked up at me and smiled.
"At Katy's" he replied.
"What?! I told you to stay away!" She shouted at him.
"Look I don't stop you from seeing your friends so!" Sal argued.
"We'll get home now!" Claire shouted as she hung up.
"Someone sounds happy" I said sarcastically.
"Who cares! I just wanna be here, with you" Sal said as he covered my hand with his.
