Once we get to his house, he invites me in. He has helmet hair again so I ruffle his hair as he takes his leather jacket off.
Gosh. He looks so hot... Kinda like a bad boy but... He isn't bad at all. (Or so I think... Yeah, I'm still thinking about what Peter told me or ALMOST told me)
We get started on our project and get maybe 3/4ths of the way through, so we take a break.
We get some water and crackers and sit his bed. We just talk for what feels like forever about personal experiences.
At this point, I realize it's 2am.... Crap!
"Christian! It's 2am!" I yell and he looks at me like I'm crazy so he checks his phone.
"Holy shit... You can't go home now, it's not safe. You can spend the night if you want and use my clothes?" He says as I look at him.
There is just a long moment of eye contact and he leans in.
Oh....
My.....
Lanta... (If you get the reference)
He kisses me and I freak out a bit. It's my first kiss!!! The moment passes and I can tell I'm blushing very hard.
"Goodnight, love." He said to me and so we went to bed. Or, he went to bed. I couldn't since I was still so shocked.
It was the next morning so I put on his sweatshirt and sweatpants. I just walked to school since I didn't want to be awkward around him... Yeah, I'm avoiding him.
When I got to school, everyone was talking about how I'm wearing his sweatshirt. I forgot it had his name on the back.
I do the normal school routine and I go to my classes. I sit at lunch with my new friends who all have a crush on Peter for some reason... and then the day flies by.
It's time to leave school so I get ready but I am pulled aside by Peter again. Ugh!
"What do you want, Peter?" I say while rolling my eyes. He's so annoying.
"Okay. So yesterday, about Christian... He is a bad person. As in, he's well..."
"Tell me Peter gosh!" Christian is too cute and sweet to be a bad person...
"He's actually 24 and in a gang. Let me explain... He has a completely fake life. A different identity. He's good looking for his age I guess but he's a liar. I'm here to look out for you."
No... He's lying... Who could come up with that even??
I nod and walk away not knowing what to say to him. I just want to go home... I start walking home and there's Christian.
He pulls up to me with his motorcycle and says he will bring me home. I don't know what to do so I just get on and trust him.
He brings me home and I rush inside. I don't want to know the truth...
I get a text and it says...
