Brielle was nervous all day. She kept looking at the clock ticking the time away. She just wanted to be 3 o clock already so she get the explaining of novel over with. Brielle doesn't know how she feels to be spending some time with Vince and is hoping this will only last a day.

~~~~~~~~~

The bell rang for the end of day. Brielle shot up from her seat and practically ran to her locker. She quickly grabbed everything she needed. Brielle didn't have time to chat with Paisley and Annabelle. She didn't even pay attention to what they were saying. Brielle abruptly stopped the girl's conversation when she slammed her locker and sprinted out of school. She heard distinctly Annabelle  yell "Where are you going?!" On the way,  Sebastian tried to stop and talk to her, but she quickly dodged him. When Brielle was out the door, she had to stop for a minute to catch her breath. She looked up and started to look for Vince. She spotted him leaning on a black Bugatti Veyron with his arms crossed across his chest. Brielle scoffed. Of course Vince would have a car like that. She walked up to him.

"Good you are on time" he said while walking over to the driver's seat not even opening her door.

"What a gentleman you are" she mumbles under her breath.

"What did you say?"

"Oh nothing you need to worry about. So where are he heading to?"

"Well princess, you just have to wait and see."

"Don't call me princess. You're not taking me out to the middle of nowhere to murder me, are you?"

"Oh come on. I'm not sadistic" Vince retorted.

They have been driving for a while until the town turned into trees. Brielle was getting suspicious.

"Are you sure you are not taking me somewhere to murder me?"

"Yes now shut up."

"Well then. Someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed today." Brielle said before shutting her mouth closed.

When Vince finally parked the car, Brielle got a good look around their surrounding. She determined that Vince took her to an abandoned park.  Despite Vince's confirmation on not killing her, Brielle still felt nervous. She was always weary about abandoned places and Vince's reputation didn't make her feel safer.

Not saying anything, Vince leads her to the pavilion and he sat down on top of one of the tables. Brielle sat down on the bench next to him and took out The Phantom of the Opera. When she looked up, she noticed Vince was staring at her. Brielle blushed and looked away.

"Okay Vince. What don't you understand?"

"This"

"This? Do you realize you just mentioned the whole book right?"

'Yeah because that's because I don't understand the whole book."

"Are you messing with me?"

"Nope."

"Oy vey. What did I get myself into. We have a lot of work to do." Brielle shook her head and started explaining the plot of the novel. She pushed down all the excitement she felt at the prospect of spending time with Vince.
