Addict With a Pen

Chapter III

We didn't talk, like I had said I hate conversations. They always were awkward for me. But that thing in me forced me to talk so did.

"I would go back in time"

"Huh?" He looked at me slightly confused.

"The answer to your question i would go back in time." He slowly moved his head up and down.

"Okay" was all he said seeming pleased with my answer but I pushed on.

"And i would stop the guy, or girl, that first saw a banana and decided to eat it and say NO! You will not eat that and none of us will!" I screamed it at the air in front of me.

Josh simply smiled with his tiger growl teeth. I smiled halfly, laughing internally at my own statement. I haven't felt like this in so long.

As we walked along the street I looked at this stranger I was able to see the faded blue hair dye as cars headlights would shine by us. He was good looking I had to admit. He must have noticed me staring cause he laughed pulling my focus from his hair to his eyes. They were a deep brown like mocha.

"I'm Josh by the way."

"Oh...um..ah, um Tyler, yeah my names Tyler." I stuttered placing my hand to the back of my neck and looking away, trying to hide my blush. Why was I blushing? Out of embarrassment probably.

"Well, Tyler," looking at me as if to say is that your real name. I nodded in confirmation. "It was nice to meet you." He held out his hand for me to shake. I obliged taking his hand in mine. His was warm in contrast to my pale cold hands. I dropped it after a moment looking down. Knowing I would have to go to my dark apartment alone and start my cycle of depression all over again.

"What's wrong..." Josh started as he put a hand on my shoulder. His face dropping. I laughed, it was an empty laughter with no hint of humor in it.

"Well if you couldn't tell I was about to, you know..." I started waving my hands towards the bridge where we had just been hoping he would understand.

"Yeah exactly, what's wrong?" He pressed on. I began to shake slightly from both the cold and the situation. Josh took notice and unzipped his sweatshirt and handed it to me. "Do you wanna come with me? If it would make you feel better that is. I wouldn't mind." He kept his chocolate eyes on me. I didn't respond nor did I take the sweatshirt. So he wrapped me in it and put his arm around my shoulders in a friendly protective way and walked me to where I could only assume was his home.
