Drift Queen (ON HOLD)

Chapter 6 Takashi

Elise pov

I glare at the alarm that is once again disturbing my sleep. The bed feels heavenly and I stay in it long after my alarm turns off. My head feels heavy and I decide to call in sick to school before getting up to take a walk.

The sun is shining outside and the people interacting outside makes me smile.

My feet take me to a park close to my apartment. I sit down on a stone near the water, my bag in my lap. The warmth from the sun makes me feel like it wasn't a bad idea to move here.

For a few hours I sit there, switching between drawing some small things in the notebook I took with me and writing things that come to mind.. At least until a hand on my shoulder snaps me out of my daydreaming. My head snaps to the side and I see Takashi.

He looks surprised as the first reaction from me is to almost growl at him. "What do you want?"

A laughter bubbles up from him and I narrow my eyes. 'What's with this guy?'

He still has his cocky attitude with him. "I wanted to check what the spitfire was doing in a park at night."

My eyes widen as I realize it's dark. "I.. didn't realize it was dark."

He studies me for a moment. "You don't have your gaijin friend with you?"

"What does gaijin even mean?"

He chuckles again. "Nothing you need to worry about. Where's your friend?"

I shrug. "Probably with Han."

He raises a brow. "I thought he would keep a closer look on you."

I scowl at him. "Why, planning on kissing me without my permission again?"

He smirked. "Maybe, maybe not." When I didn't ease up he chuckled. "I'm not going to kiss you against your will."

I narrow my eyes and huff as I stand up, preparing to walk back. "Leave me alone."
He catches my arm. "It's dark, let me walk you home."

I glare. "Why?"

He sighs. "Because you're young and it's dark out. It's not a good idea for you to walk by yourself."

"Fine." We walk towards my apartment.

"Why do you hang out with your cowboy friend anyway?"

"That is none of your business. He's my best friend and that is all you need to know." We reach my apartment just as he's going to ask another question.

"Well, We're here." I wave slightly and head inside before he can say anything. I shut my door and lock it before sliding down to the floor. Why was he being nice to me?

It takes a while before I move. After a quick shower I curl up in bed in my favorite pajamas.

Tomorrow I need to talk with Sean about getting my own car. That way I won't need people following me home all the time.

Vote and comment, it keeps me motivated :)
