Bad Girl

I Don't Do Relationships

Anna excused herself and walked to Thomas. Even if she was angry she couldn't notice his body. He was leaning on his car and she could notice his toned body through the black t-shirt, but she had to keep her calm and confront him.

'What is going on?' she asked crossing her arms and a frown appeared on her face.

'Mrs. Fisher is back home.'

'I can see it, it was nice that you helped her, but I am talking about my car, why did you take it back? I was supposed to go and pick it.'

'I wanted to help Anna, others would be happy not questioned every thing I did.'

'Well I am not others and I will definitely not faint at your legs because of this. Remember that I vandalised your car, you should be angry with me.'

'Maybe I am.'

'You have a weird and wrong way to show it. Look, I don't need your help. If I took you last night to see those people it was a simple gesture, I didn't want a reward from you or to pity me.'

'How can you believe this? I admire and appreciate you for doing this Anna. Look, I was angry with what you did to my car, but you paid for your mistake.' and he winked at her. They both remembered that car washing scene.

'Ok, so now you can leave us alone.'

Thomas laughed 'And I was about to invite you to my house. I promised Caleb that I would take him to play and help him with his homework.'

'I am not going anywhere, I have to sleep.'

'Wow, great plans you have for today. You can sleep in my bedroom.'

'No thanks.'

'Why? Are you afraid that you will love my bed too much and can't leave it alone after?'

'Very funny. No, I want to be alone, do you understand this? I want to enjoy my free time. You showed up a week ago and you are every day in my life, I want to have a detox from you, do you understand?' Thomas continued to laugh.

'Ok, I can take only Caleb and you can rest and spend quality time with yourself.'

'If he is not back until 4 p.m. I will call the police.'

'Ok, you have a weird way to say Yes.' Anna snatched the keys from his hand and shouted for Caleb to get ready.

Thomas and Caleb spent a great time together, although Thomas tried to find out some details he didn't succeed. He wanted to prepare the lunch and ask Caleb what he wanted.

'Do you want some pizza?'

'It is ok.' but Thomas knew it wasn't.

'We can have something else, don't worry, just say it.'

'Don't tell my sister because she will be disappointed, but I hate pizza, we eat all the time.'

'Your sister does not cook?' and Caleb laughed.

'She is a disaster'

'Ok, we can make some grilled chicken and some salad, what do you say?'

'I can't wait to try it, but can we make some for Anna too? There is no food at home.'.

'We will take care of her' Caleb hugged Thomas and he was happy. He felt appreciated, a feeling that he wanted all his life to obtain. He first wanted to feel it from his parents, but he didn't. After he tried his luck with his wife, but he never felt it. He was amazed how a small boy that he met a week ago could make him feel appreciated, that he could make him happy with such a small thing. Anna was lucky to have Caleb as her brother.
