A.D.D.I.C.T [h.f.t)

33.

It's now the next day and I woke up to a message and a missed call from my mum - saying that they had to get an earlier flight as my dad had to get back to work and therefore we won't be having breakfast together and I won't get a chance to say bye.

"Hey you okay?" Kyle asks me as I stare at my screen, thinking about what to type back.

"Yeah it's just typical." I plainly say and continue to stare.

"What is?" He asks and I look away from my phone and shake my head and give a slight smile.

"Nothing it's just my dad always does this kind of thing. I'm used to it. I'm sorry you don't get to meet them properly."

"Well I'm here and we have the whole day to ourselves now and there will another time when I can meet them, right?"

"Right." I say and put my phone down as I'll just reply later - they are probably in the air just now anyway.

"Come here." He says as he motions for me to come closer and of course I do.

"Ugh I hate you guys." Rowan says as she raises her arms in the air and slowly opens her eyes and moves her head to look at us.

"We love you too." I reply as she groans after looking at the time on her alarm clock.

"Too early." Is all she manages to say before rolling over and placing a pillow over her head.

The rest of the morning is spent with me and Kyle thinking of what to do today and us trying to be quiet because Rowan didn't wake up until just before midday.  Kyle and I are currently at the mall, we just had some pizza for lunch with lemonade as we never got round to having much of a breakfast unless breakfast bars count - which I had left over in my bag from class the other day. Now we are just walking around until we find a shop we want to go in, a few minutes in I spot Natasha next to a photo booth.

"Hey!" I shout over and she waves as soon as she sees both of us, and that's when he lets go of my hand. I slowly look down at both of our hands as I watch them come undone as we reach her.

"What are you guys doing here?" Natasha asks as she gives each of us a hug, Kyle first and then me.

"Just wasting some free time. You?" Kyle answers before I get the chance and I just nod in agreement as Natasha raises her eyebrows in confusion. Probably because of how awkward things got and real fast at that.

"Erm right. Anyway are yous attending the party tonight?" She asks us and as I'm about to answer again he answers for us.

"Not sure, don't think many are. But maybe, I'll drop by." He says and Natasha looks at me, "and you?" She asks and his eyes go on me.

"I mean if Kyle wants to then yeah, I'll come along for a bit." I say and she smiles.

"Okay well maybe see you weirdos later." And with that she is gone and I've turned to face him.

"What the hell?" I say and all I get is a shrug.
