Armelie : I glanced behind me and carried on running until I stopped at Jake's house.It was ten to eleven and my parents were fighting again .I needed to escape and I knew Jake would understand.I pulled my hood over my head ,it had slipped while I was running.The rain poured down harder and harder soaking me too the skin even through my hoodie.I raised my hand to knock then stopped in midair. The door opened and standing on the other side in a t-shirt and jeans was Jake, his eyes full of concern and I hated myself for running over here every time I needed to get away from my parents ,like now.

Jake :I was on the sofa eating pizza when heard  footsteps outside .I got up to answer the door and before I opened it I knew who was on the other side.It was Armelie .She had been coming over for the past week now and without asking I knew it was because her parents were getting a divorce and were fighting all the time. Armelie was standing outside in an over sized hoodie with the hood pulled over her head she was soaking wet from the rain her hand raised like she was about to knock.I looked at her with concern . She had  determined look in her eyes and I knew that she hated the thought of me feeling sorry for her."Come in before you catch a cold" I instructed gesturing for her to come in she nodded then walked in shivering slightly.I locked the door then handed her a towel to dry herself off before sitting down beside her.

Armelie: I dried my hair with the towel Jake had given me and sat down beside him.He pushed back his floppy brown hair and stared at me hard with his green eyes ."I can tell  you have a crazy idea in mind and before you tell me NO "he said. I smiled.                                                                                "guess you don't know me as well as you thought Jake Parker because this idea is not crazy in fact it's for from it." He laughed , the concern drifted from his eyes.
