It's All About The Summer

Chapter 32

Alex

-So? –Harry said, looking at me

-So...

-Almost done?

-Yeah, almost

-Are you always this slow when you eat?

-Normally, yeah –I giggled as I remembered the lunch at school with the girls when I usually had to eat it all fast at the end cause they will leave me alone if I didn’t. Yeah I was blessed for my lovely friends. For some reason it only took me long to eat when I was with someone else rather than my parents, when I was with them I was always the first one to finish. I finished my huge sandwich and smiled at Harry who laughed and took my hand

-Alright pretty girl let’s go then

-Wait, you’re forgetting something –He looked at me and then nodded

-Oh right, the real prize of the sandwich. Alright come –He took me to the waiter and told the girl they had payed less than they should. The girl smiled at him and thanked him and then as a reward for his honesty gave him a free soda. We exited the place with a soda in Harry’s hand and a bright smile on my face

-See Harry? Being honest has its rewards

-Yeah that’s right, now we have a soda –he said jokingly. I rolled me eyes and he hugged me –Okay let’s move I need to take you to a place I’m sure you’ll love –he took my hand and started running down the street

-Wait Harry stop! –He stopped and looked at me

-Something wrong?

-No, just wondering why are we running

-I want to get there fast, don’t be lazy move!

-Me? Lazy? Huh, you think so –We started running again until we reached a little store in which you could rent motorbikes. Harry entered the place and talked to the owner and payed for a red one. He took the helmets and put mine on –Do you even know how to ride one of those things?

-Yeah I’ve ridden them before, don’t worry you won’t die today

-With you, you never know

-Hey! –He elbowed me and I laughed –Come here and stop being silly Alex –he offered me his hand for me to get on. I looked at him and then at the floor, trying to hide my nerves –I promise it’ll be okay, you’ll enjoy it a lot. I won’t let anything happen to you, trust me –I looked at his emerald eyes and took his hand. When I was up he turned his head to look at me –Ready? –I nodded and he smiled. He started the bike and set off the road. The wind started messing up my hair as we sped up through the street. For a while all that was seen was buildings, houses and stores but then more trees started to appear until only a few buildings were seen. The landscape was beautiful, everything around me was green. There were still a lot of cars going through though

-How is it going? –Harry yelled so I could hear his voice over the deafening sound of the wind in my ears

-Great

-I’m gonna speed up a bit more okay? –I hugged him tighter from the back and buried my head in his back, taking a deep breath as his perfume went up through my nostrils and filled my insides. It only took us half an hour to arrive to the place. –Welcome to Richmond Park. 2,360 acre. It has a lot of buildings I would love you to see but we don’t have that much time, besides it’s a really big park so I’m gonna take you to the place I know you’ll like the most if that’s okay

-Yes of course. That’s perfect –He started the engine again and we entered the park through a wide road. It was surrounded by trees and flowers
