Chapter Thirteen

Erika POV

Wow this guy is a real charm.  He understands the importance of life and people.

Erika- Maybe you will

Elliot- I just want better friends, my friends are always trying to get into girls pants and they never care about my opinion

Erika- Elliot that isn't what real friends are

Elliot- Ive really never had a real friend

Erika- Well you looking at a new one right now

He sits up and looks at me. He rolls on top of me and hugs me tight.

Elliot- Thank you Erika

Erika- No problem Elliot

Elliot- I need a nickname for you

Erika- You really do

Erika- E

Erika- I love that

We sat there for a few minutes when I look at the time 1:00 am.  How is it already one.  I texted Mackenzie to bring my Jeep to the house.

Erika- Elliot I have to get home

Elliot- Then let's get you there E

I smile and jumped off the tailgate he closed it.  He walked around and opend the door for me, I smiled and jumped in the truck. We was driving home talking about how funny the night was. When he pulled into the driveway and stopped the truck. He got out and opened the door for me,  I smile and jump out.

Erika- Thank you for the amazing night Elliot

Elliot- Anytime E I will see you tomorrow at school

Erika- I need a favor,  could you pick me up in the morning Mackenzie has my Jeep

Elliot- I would love too

Erika- Great I will see you then cowboy

He laughs hugs me and then gets back in his truck. He waves and drives out of the driveway,  I smile and walk to the door.  I open the door and quietly close it.

Jake- Who was that

I jump causing me to fall,  I hit my knee on my way down.

Erika- Crap Jake

He walks over to me and helps me up.

Jake- Sorry

Erika- It was my friend Elliot

Jake- Elliot Johnson

Erika- Yeah

Jake- Erika that guy hangs out with the wrong crowd you should be around him

Erika- Too bad I am

I walk to my room and slam the door.  Everyone judges him because of his "friends".  Elliot has had a bad life his parents wasn't in the picture and all he had was his grandpa. He died,  and now he lives by himself. I fall asleep wondering why people think that about him...

I wake up with the sun in my eyes.  I get out of my warm bed and walk into the bathroom.  I lay out some shorts and a crop top,  I jump in the shower.  I dry my hair and put my clothes on,  I put on a little mascara.  I was looking on Instagram when I hear the doorBell,  I grab my bag and run down the stairs.  I run pass Jake and to the door,  I open the door to see Elliot standing there in his plaid unbuttoned shirt with his boots.

Elliot- You ready emerald eyes

Erika- Yeah cowboy

He laughs and grabs the strap on my bag in my hand.

Elliot- I got your bag

Erika- I will carry it

Elliot- Nah I got it

Erika- Thank you

He smiles and then moves a side so I can get by.

Elliot- Lady's first

Erika- Than-

Jake- ...
