April POV:

I don’t know what took over me. I was making out in eye sight for the world to see with Xavier. The guy has a girlfriend who was in the same room.

You’re so stupid was all I kept hearing all the way down the block. I turned around only to realize that I was arguing with myself. Just great I am a walking idiot, outside at who knows what time of night and let’s not forget I have on little to no clothes and I’m talking to myself.

The wind started to pick up and I couldn’t help but shiver.

“April slo-o-w down” I tuned to see Jonathan hunched over with his hands on his knees in front of me breathing heavy.

“April do you not know that you walk fast as hell, I almost tripped on my own two feet trying to catch up with you.” Jonathan was now standing tall but his breathing seemed to slow down.

“Jonathan why are you out here?” I looked into his eyes trying to get some type of answer. Why was this guy standing in front of me when there was a party going on only blocks away?

I looked around I couldn’t realize were I was. Maybe I walked a little too far in the wrong direction.

“April you honestly think Imma let you walk alone at this time, and do you not see what you have on. Plus you seemed to be in a hurry bun rushing past people to get out of there I wanted to see if you were alright.” His voice made it sound as if he was so concerned for me.

I started to rub my hands on my arms the wind was blowing tonight. I’m just hoping that it don’t rain then ill really be having a shitty night.

I felt something around my shoulders. Looking to see that it was Jonathans coat around me it was pretty big it came down to my knees and he rolled up the arm sleeves so I could see my own fingers. Making me laugh it was a nice gesture of him to give me his coat.

The corners of his mouth seemed to be moving as if he was trying to hold back a smile.

“I told you I won’t be too far if you needed saving” Jonathan started to walk but I wasn’t following him if that’s what he think I was going to do.

“Are you going to stand there? Or are we going to stand here and freeze to death?” he was looking at me as if I was crazy. Did he not know I live almost six blocks from here? The streets are not a safe place to be walking at night.

“Uhmm I live six blocks from here I think I should just call Ashley to come pick me up?” pulling my eyebrows up as if to think was that a good idea. Pulling out my phone I looked at it as it blinked on and then shut off.

Perfect just perfect phones dead.

“Come on I’ll walk you I don’t mind plus it gives me time to talk to you.” Jonathan voice made me just stares at him in a way I completely forgot where I was.

I blanked my eyes and just started at him. I could just turn around and walk back to the party and find Ashley and demand that she take me home. Then that would mean facing Xavier and everything that just happened. Or I could walk home with Jonathan.

Looking down at the coat I had on I smiled and looked up at him.

“Ok I guess you can walk me home …but” I bit down on my lip trying to find the words.

“But what?” Jonathans hand was on my chin making me face him.

“But I don’t wanna talk about what just happened…I’m sure you saw.” My voice begins to crack as I looked away from him.

There was a tug on my arm. His arm was wrapped around mine I looked up to see a warm genuine smile “I wouldn’t think of it” was all he said which causes me to breathe a little fresh air.

Was this night getting any stranger? I kissed the guy that I was in love with like truly in love with. I walked home with this really cute guy from school. My phone was dead and Ashley was going to kill me.

The walk home was kind of fun he actual turned out to be a cool guy. Not once did he bring up the situation or what some would call it public affection, not once did he mention Xavier’s name either. I liked that we talked about any and everything else from sports to my goals in life everything I guess.

He stopped walking and I looked at him confused wanting to know why we stopped, but I looked up to realize we were standing in front of my house.

“Thanks for walking me home” I spoke while trying to unzip the coat.

His hands were on top of mine with then an instant.

“No worry’s keep the coat I’ll talk to you later stay out of trouble. Don’t forget I’m always a phone call away if you need me.” Jonathan said.

I turned and walked into my house. My house was dark as hell not one corner of the house had light in it. I squinted my eyed trying to see which turned out to be a total lost. Barely managing to make it up the stairs. Saying barely because I can swear that I bumped into everything on my way up here. Reaching my door I swung it open then cursed the minute I did cuz it made a huge noise hitting the wall.

If there was anything I hated more it was the dark. I knew my room like the back of my hand. So I just feel on my bed. Getting under the covers not taking anything off. I could smell Jonathans sent on his coat. Thinking about the whole night over in my head.

My eyes started to get heavy, out of no were my phone started vibrating.
