I could hear soft whispers around me. I forced my eyes open to see my mother hovering over me.
"Shes awake" she said softly as she placed her hand against my forehead. Who was she talking to?
Suddenly another head came into view.
I blinked several times, trying to identify this person who was now hovering over be, watching me with a concerned expression.
I looked around to pink pink walls- I was in my bedroom.
"Cadan? What the hell are you doing in my room?" I yelled as i sat up. I felt no pain. I remembered what happened this morning; the trip and me running away but after that my memory was blank.
"Well this handsome young man found you uncontious at school, after the school called to have you sent home, Cadan came along too" my mum explained as Cadan remained silent.
I furrowed my eyebrows, "And he's still here-Why?" I questioned rudely. I instantly felt bad as i saw the look on Cadans face.
He ran a hand threw his smooth looking hair, "I have to go, it was nice meeting you Mrs Brown. Bye Alica" He smiled at my mum as she walked him out; leaving me alone in my room.

Not long after my mother returned, "Alica that was very rude of you! How could you be so ungrateful?" She scolded me.
"I hope you know that young lad refused to leave until he knew you were okay- He was the one who found you."
I bit my lip nervously, "I don't get on with him mum. He was just being nice in front of you" I whispered. It was true; even i knew Cadan meant danger therefore i had to avoid him.
"Your so cold." And with that my mum got up and left me once again.
I rested my head against the headboard and closed my eyes as i let out a long sigh.
I looked towards the clock that was on my bedside table; 2:45PM.
I noticed a neatly folded piece of paper. When did i put that there? I reached for it and unfolded it.
Inside i found a note. I squinted my eyes as i read the scruffy handwriting:

<i>'Feeling better? Good.
Call me sometime- 08422415493
Give it out to anyone else & ill batter you.
-C '</i>

Such a nice yet horrid note. I reached for my phone as i jabbed the numbers and saved his number.
Did i plan on calling him? No, not at all.
It humoured me that he would leave a note with his number after acting like a complete jerk to me.
Even when i felt weak he still had the nerve to tease me. I gritted my teeth as i remembered his smirking face, <i>"Psst, Seen a ghost?"</i>

I stood up and fixed my hair. I shoved my feet into my vans and walked out the house whilst i sent a text to gabe, asking for him to meet me at the park.
Immediately i felt my phone vibrate; signalling that i had a message

<b>Gabe:OK sure. See u in 5 :))</b>

I smiled and slid my phone in my front pocket as i continued my walk to the park.
I sped up once the park was in view and i could see Gabe patiently sat on one of the park benches.
"Hey!" I yelled as i got closer. His head snapped up and a smile spread across his face.
I walked into his open arms and returned the friendly hug.
"Hi Alisa. I heard about you passing out at school. Feeling better?" He smiled as he broke the hug and sat down again.
I laughed nervously, "It was nothing. Just got a little dizzy" I waved a dismissive hand.
"Caden aye?" He wiggled his eyebrows at me.
"No! Stop with the eyebrow thing! I don't even like him as a friend so keep the eyebrows still"
His body shook as he chuckled, "He helped you though. I heard he went to your house; that was nice of him" He winked and shoved me playfully.
"Gabe. He's a jerk-To you and to me. Besides, he gave me his number and threatened to 'batter me' if i gave it out" I quoted.
"You asked for his number?" Gabe asked with a raised brow.
"No! Of course not! He randomly left a note" I shrugged.

"Alisa can i take a few pictures of you on the swing for my Photography course?" He asked shyly.
"Im not the prettiest girl for that but sure" i laughed as i ran to the swings.
I sat on the swing as Gabe walked towards me holding his large Camera.
"Okay stay still... Don't move! Okay good" he murmured as he snapped some pictures. I pushed myself backwards and swung my legs as it began to swing back and forth.
"Stop. Could you let your hair down? It would make the photo look even cooler" I caught a faint blush appearing on his cheeks as i let my hair loose and winked at him.
I began swinging again- ignoring the cute boy with the camera so it would look more natural.

"Thanks for the help with my photography work" Gabe said as we stood outside my front door.
"Sure, it was fun. Make sure you show me the final once your done with them" i said with a genuine smile.
He nodded and hugged me before turning to leave.
I opened the door and walked in, "Mum, I'm home!" I yelled.
"Ooh! Who was that cutie?" My mum winked.
My face went blank, "Spying? Mum your such a creep" i joked, "But that was Gabe- the shy boy i told you about. He's my friend" i smiled.
"Look at my Alisa; getting all the cute boys" my mum giggled.
I groaned, "Mum!" I wined as she wrapped her arms around me.
