"Tell me about yourself. You've heard a bit 'bout me, now I wanna hear 'bout you!" Dominic excitedly said as he shifted in the bean bag.

"Oh well um, what do you wanna know?" I asked. No one really took an interest in me like this. I was boring, why did he want to know? He probably just doesn't want it to be awkward.

"Well," he thought, "tell me 'bout your mates!"

"Ok! Well I don't have a lot of them, just two. Their names are Tyler and Josh." I told him.

"Wait aren't they the Americans?" He asked.

Tyler and Josh both had moved here in year 9, about 2 years ago. Both of their dad work for the same company, and both got transferred here. Because they were the only Americans, they quickly became good friends. And because of Tyler introducing himself to me, we're all best friends.

"Yup. We've know each other since they moved here. Other then them I don't have any other friends." I explained.

"You've got me!" He happily said.

"Your right, I do." I chuckle warmly.

"What about your family?" He asked.

"What about them?" I questioned him back.

"Like do you have siblings? Who do ya' live with? Stuff like that." Dominic clarifies.

"Oh well I've got two biological brothers, and I'm the youngest. But they live with my dad in America. Now I live with my mum and stepfamily. Which is my stepdad, and stepsister. My stepsister is older then me, she's 18. She goes to our school. You might know her, her name is Elise." I told him.

"Yeah I think I know her. She's flirted with my mate Adam before." He said.

"Yeah she does that a lot..." I sighed.

"Anyway, have you got any family?" I asked. I didn't want to keep talking about my stepfamily.

I mean they're not my family. At least I don't think so. My stepdad is a fucking asshole. And my stepsister thinks she's better then everyone. And she never forgets to tell me. Everyone thinks we're perfect. But it's the complete opposite, it's kinda sad.

"Yea, I live with me mum, dad, and little sister." He told me as he messed with his hair.

As he talked about how his parents think he's crazy, I couldn't help but stare. Not in a weird way, but just observing him. His motions were quick. He was never in the same position for to long, always changing. He would mess with his hair, pick at his nails, play with the sleeves. It's was cute in a strange way.

"But I'm sure ya' know how that is." He says.

"I um zoned out a bit," I quietly said, "Know how what is?" Ughhh why am I so embarrassing!!

"Don't worry bout it, I do that all the time. I was just sayin' you probably know how it is to have your parents talk down to ya'." He smiled, which made me feel a lot better.

"Oh I know that very well. My stepdad likes to tell me how dumb I look. Or how much better people would like me if 'I acted normal'. Like what does that even fuckin mean? Does that dick want me to fake who I am just so I can be popular like his daughter? What's the point of that? What's the point of having friends who don't know the real me? Or like the real me? That's just shit. And there's nothin wrong with me! So what if I like alternative things? Like black nails, and eyeliner. Am I hurting anyone? No!" I ranted angrily. My stepdad is such a dick.

"Sorry for rambling." I apologise, realising he probably doesn't care.

"Don't be! Your right! It's the same with me and my dad, and the kids at our shit school! At the end of the day we can only be ourselves. And who is anybody to tell us who we can be! I don't live for them! I live for me! I can dress how I like, date who I like, listen to what I like, and if anyone has a problem they can fuck right off!" He said passionately. This was something he cares about, and it shows. Plus he was a thousand percent right!

"Not to mention we look fuckin hot the way we are." He joked with a laugh.

We both broke out in a fit of laughs. He's a dork. It's amazing.

We kept talking about things we had in common. We liked similar music and similar styles. I found out he sings and plays the guitar. I told him how Tyler and Josh also played music, which he thought was cool. I found out his mate Adam plays the guitar too.

My phone suddenly rang, scaring the absolute shit out of both of us. I got up and quickly searched through my bag to find it.

"Hello?" I asked, I didn't have time to check who was calling, it would have gone to voicemail.

"You're alright! We were worried!" Tyler said. I knew his voice anywhere.

"Why were your worried?" I asked Tyler. Dominic sent me a confused look, I quietly told him, 'it's Tyler'.

"(Y/n)! You've been gone all day!" He partly yelled through the phone.

"All day?" I asked shocked, I looked at the face of my phone. It read 3:17 pm in bright bold text.

Holy shit me and Dominic talked all day! We missed the whole day! My mum is gonna kill me!

"Yeah all day! Are you ok?" He questioned me like a worried parent.

"Yeah I'm fine Ty don't worry, just lost track of time. Listen I'll meet you at your house, ok?" I told him.

"Alright." He agreed, then hung up.

"We definitely lost track of time." Dominic said pulling his phone out of his pocket.

We grabbed our bags and headed out of the treehouse. We kept talking as we walked out of the forest. Once we got out of it Dominic turned to me.

"I had a lot of fun today. We should do this again." He said smiling. Hearing him say that made me all giddy for some reason.

"I had a lot of fun too! And I agree, we totally should do this again." I returned his smile.

He giggled happily, "Hey what's your number? So we can keep in touch and all." He asked. I could have sworn I saw a light pink dusting on his cheeks but I brushed it off.

"Oh yeah it's, (I can't think of a number rip)." I told him pulling out my phone as well. While I wasn't sure if he had a blush, I was positive I had one.

I know he's only asking for my number in a friendly way but it still made me all flustered.

"Sick! I'll text ya' later. Bye (y/n)!" He said still smiling.

"Bye Dominic!" I said as we split up.

As I was walking to Tyler's house I couldn't stop smiling. Dominic was sweet, and funny. Not to mention extremely attractive.

Shit, do I have a crush?
