The sun broke through the window, causing my room to light up from the darkness. I laid in bed for  30 more minutes, until Skye came in begging me to wake up so I can make him eggs. He isn't a very good cook. Without thinking about it I just made him some eggs and left the apartment as soon as I could. Honestly, I just need to be alone. I decided to take a walk to relax myself. At one point I was tired of walking and settled on the idea of laying in the grass of a near by park for a while and observe the clear sky. It had been a week since the night at the bar, still I don’t know what happened. I had been thinking about Ashton a lot. I felt bad just leaving him there. At the moment it seemed like the right think to do, but now I wish I had taken time to know him. Its no like i want to see him again, at all, but guilt has taken over me. I'm to nice. The only way I am going ot forget about it is pretending that I don't want see him again.

        “Charlie!” I herd a herd the accent. Shit. Slowly I sit up and turn around to see that curly haired idiot , Ashton. 

        “Oh I remember you.” I say with a sarcastic smile. “I know you do. Can I take you to coffee. Bet you haven’t had breakfast yet.” I stare at him blankly before stating, “No.” he giggled and looked down at his feet, “Playing hard to get? Its cute.”

        “I’m not I just don't want to go to coffee with you.” 

        “Just give me a chance” he asked a bit more seriously.        

        “You didn't even ask how I was or even a hello. You just show up randomly and ask me out?thats lame… ” I want to go on but he interrupts me.

        “Well I just wanted to get to the point. I don't like to beat around the bush.”

        “Whatever. I’ll go, but just this once.”

The warmth of the coffee in the mug satisfied me in such cold weather. Making my whole body feel safe and snug. I wouldn't let myself drink it to fast, because I wanted to hold onto the comfort in such an unpleasant situation. I started starring at his tattoos, his many tattoos. they all seemed to be random, but one caught my eye. It was of a skull. One with an indian headdress. My dad had one exactly like it. “Nice tattoo.” I said to him with my first real smile in 6 months. He just looked at me and smiled before going back to his coffee. 

“So, whats your deal.” he asked me starring me down like a hawk. 

“I don’t know what you mean?”

        He took a deep breath  before continuing, “I mean you are so awkward and sassy at the same time. I can tell whether or not your nice.”

        “Well you will never gonna find out? I already can tell you are a nosey stalker.” I looked the him with wide eyes.

        “Hopefully by the end of today I'll have a better understanding of your constently changing personality,” he sighs, “look I don't take shit from people, Charlie. But I can tell your a nice person who is just not willing to open up, so I am giving you a chance."

        I am not sure what to say back. I sip my coffee still gazing at him. "I'm in a slightly happier mood now that I had food so I'll give you today to try to get to know me. Let me warn you know, your gonna work your ass off trying to get me to oped up to you."

        He smirks making me slightly uncomfortable,"Lets start over." he smiles.

We sat talking for a while. At first small talk but it grew into to something bigger. Almost two hours went by before I realized the time. “Oh. I got to run. Um. Ill see you soon?” I said packing up my things.

“Ill call you.”

I hummed Ramones to myself as I organized some music books in the store. Slowly, I turned my head when I felt someone watching me, my boss. “You seem happier then usual.” he pointed out with a smirk.

“just a good day I guess.” Trying not to look him in the eye I could feel him walking closer to me, then put his hand on my shoulder. Why can everyone read my emotions today? I knew he was gonna ask me about it. I love Jack (my boss) I really do, but he is nosey!

“Did you meet someone?” He asked quietly. I could almost feel the sarcastic grin on his face. 

“Maybe, Why is that any of your business?” I said with a sass. “I never said it was. Just curious.”
