Young folks

Listen to young folks by peter bjorn and john as this chapter was kind of inspired by this song

Me and Ophelia have been texting each other since we met like a week ago, all we talk about is music, art and lots funny shit even after gigs and band practise. But finally i ask her "hey do you want to hang out today?" She replies back "sure what time dude?", "ummm 2?" I text back and in a few seconds she answers "ok :) see ya soon". I place the phone on my chest and close my eyes gently i imagine her smiling, what a beautiful smile she had, so sweet, so rosy. I open my eyes to check the time and i see its one o'clock now so i get up from the bed and begin to change into my extremely large white band t-shirt, black skinny jeans and my green tie dye converse. I grab my wallet and keys and walk out the door with a big grin plastered on my face, i trump down the stairs to finally exit the building. I stroll to the tube station and get on a train to camden town for fifty minutes, as i get there she texts me telling me to wait at the station

After texting to meet up with Addison i begin to get dress, i drag on my black extra large tattered horror movie t-shirt and black school girl skirt. I slip on my grey knee high socks and black dr martens on, i pack my purse, keys and jacket in my back pack. Quickly paced out of my apartment to the exit out of the building, i roamed the street for thirty minutes before i got to the station. I could see his flaming red hair in the crowd and him being extremely tall like 6'3" helped, i pushed myself threw the solidly dense crowd to reach him. I thought to jokingly creep up behind him to see his reaction, tiptoeing behind i shout...

Tiptoeing behind Addison Ophelia shouted "BOO!" With a smile placing her hands on his shoulders, he couldn't lie he was shaken a little bit. A big smile grew on his face as he turned to look at her, his sapphire blue eyes met her pale sea blues. He admired her beauty so much he just stared at her before he notice that she had risen an eyebrow and thinking whats wrong. With blushing cheeks he quickly greeted "hi how are ya?" She chuckled "you already know that i'm ok we just texted each like thirty minutes ago", oh yeah he thought. They began to tour around the streets and got to every market stall and shop, they stumble upon this indian jewellery stall inside the Stable markets. Ophelia was fascinated of the bright colours and heavily decorated decor he could see her interest in the stall, she looked at rings, summer umbrellas, pillow case and lots more. But something caught her eye, it was a bracelet which was like a tiny rope in the colour red and little silver bells jingling around. Grabbing them from the large pile of the same product she went to the cashier and bought them, she turned to Addison once again and asked "can put your hand out of your pocket?". Pulling his bony hand from the comfort of his pocket he was little confused and what she going to do, opening the paper bag she took out one of the two bracelets and tied it around his wrists which gave him and big smile. She took the other bracelet out and crumpled up the paper bag and threw it in black bin meter away from them, she gave him the bracelet and put out her wrist signalling to tie around hers and he did.

They walked and talked until they could hear both of their stomachs moaning and begging for food, they found a Chinese food stall, they bought noodles fried chicken and chicken curry all in one. They chomped and chewed their food like it was going out fashion but still played around with it, Ophelia begins to slurp her noodles jokingly in which made Addison laugh " hey stop that or i'm gonna choke on my noodles laughing" she responds with a cheeky grin "nope" popping the 'p'. He tries to get his own back by making the noodles to become a moustache which cause Ophelia to laugh hysterically. They finally finish their food and throw it in the bin, as they begin to walk the sky becomes ombre with pink going down to purple which looked stunning to look at. She walks him to the station and gives him a huge smile before saying "well i had a fun day today, we should do this more often" "yeah, yeah we should" he replies, as they look at the barrier and look back at each other they give farewells and hug each other before both departing from one another.

Again i get on the train and begin my journey back home and through that time all i could think is about her and nothing else: her laugh, her smile, her eyes. Basically everything. When finally reaching my stop i get off and race back home so i could bring back the day in my mind, i downtrodden up the stairs and open the door i see my mates all sitting on the couch watching a movie and eating pizza. "Hey where did you go all day?" One of them questions "out with a friend" i answer, "it was her, wasn't it?" It was a question which i found it to be rhetorical because i never answered. I walk to my minimal white bedroom and sat on my bed taking my shoes and shirt off, i look at the long mirror leaning on the wall and gaze at my face and skinny figure. I'm a pale milky white skin with lots of freckles on my face and body , i can see i inherited my father's looks so strongly that sometimes i could make my mum cry of all the memories. I pull of my jeans and socks off before putting on my shorts and shirt on, i lay in my bed thinking about Ophelia. Ophelia, Ophelia your name is like life to me even though your not here but i wish you were.

As i got home i called out for Ash to see if he was in but no reply was given so which meant he was out, i get my phone and dial his number to see where he is. The phone rings and rings until he picks up, all i could hear is him panting and someone in the background moaning. "H-hey Ophelia" he stutters out of breathe "where are you Ash?" I demand, "i-i'm out with mates" he lies, yeah right with mates you mean fuck buddy. "Ok" i sigh hold my head between my index finger and thumb, i cut the phone line and slouch in the sofa, i know he's cheating on me,he's done about five times. When he first cheated on me in our own bed i was so upset that i cried like fuckin Niagara falls, he said he wouldn't do it again i should've known better but i can't get out of this relationship now since i'm so deep in it. After the third or second time he cheated i really couldn't be bothered at all, because truly i fell out of love with him and the only reason i stay with him is because i have no where else to go and if i did try to leave he would have to kill me.
