Rick's p.o.v
Okay I know what you guys are thinking, I took a job here at Blue Fall's to be closer to Layton, and well you would be partially correct. See I did apply at the station back at Lightwood heights, I mean who wouldn't want to work with their best friend? But unfortunately they weren't hiring so here I am.
These past months, growing closer to Layton has opened me up to a whole lot more of life, I feel younger in a way. After my parents passed away I was forced to grow up and fend for myself so I didn't enjoy much of my teenage years or 'roaring 20's'.
I made some bad decisions along the way and almost got sent to juvie but an officer took pity on me and as they say the rest is history, now I'm protecting justice instead of infringing upon it.
Last night after I showed up at Layton's door to share with her the good news, we stayed in and watched TV until Cass came back home after midnight doing the 'walk of shame'. Today Layton wanted me to tag along to some frat party Cass was dragging her to but I'm 27 and that's not really my scene.
Perhaps I should get some friends my own age but oh well what's done is done.
End of p.o.v
"Wow don't you clean up nice, I haven't seen you look this good in ages" Cass says in shock as Layton waits for him at the front door
"I'm ready Cass"
"I know let's go"
"No, I mean I'm ready to move on"
Cass places his keys on the coffee table and tries to contain his excitement
"Are you sure" He mumbles, he has been waiting for her to say those words
"Yes, No, I don't know, but I have to try. I owe it to myself to. My life can't be on hold waiting for something better that might never happen, I need to enjoy the now." Layton takes a deep breath trying to reassure herself.
"Well between my college and law school you will definitely have your pick to choose from with my guidance of course. I can't have you around any fuck boys that's for sure. In fact I want to introduce you to somebody, let's go"
Sometime later at the party
"Layton this is Travis, Travis Layton" Cass introduces the two "I'm sure you two will have loads to talk about, T take care of her she's like a sister to me" he warns Travis before wondering of
Layton's p.o.v
Travis was 'stare worthy', from his piercing blue eyes to tousled blonde hair and jawline you could cut your finger on.
The way he stared at me, so intently as he listened to every word I spoke with such interest did make my heart flutter but all I could think about was how he wasn't Kiandre.
