Religious class was the last class I had for the day. No yoga today. I dropped at the cafe looking around for David. I didn't spot him at class. We always seat together. I saw him seating at our usual corner and walked up to him.
"I didn't see you in class" I took the seat next to him.
"Yeah....I got stuck up at home" he said lowly. There was an off tone to his voice but I didn't want to push it. David always told me when something was wrong.
"Oh...alright. are you ok?"
He nodded and then stared at me. "Have you seen Scott today?" He surprise me by asking. I blinked. "Sorry....I just thought you guys were close"
"We're..... friends" I told him. David nodded.
"I haven't seen him today" I answered truthfully. We were supposed to hang out this evening but he hasn't even showed up. I haven't seen him since that night he saw me and David together. And that's two days ago.
<Scott's idea of him not being a romantic person is hideous because I think he is. We're seating in his car trunk. It was too late to stop by anywhere for lunch so Rose helped package some stuffs from her show glass. Including Knishes. And Scott loved that very much. Even though he didn't say it."Where did you get candles from?" I asked as Scott lit the last candle with a lighter."I guess I always had it" he shrugged."Why? To light your car up in the night?" I chuckled making Scott roll his eyes."Very funny""Oh lighten up." I said and laughed at my own joke.He placed the last lighted candle on the little wood we got from Rose. He laid blankets in his trunk and we sat in while eating sugar coated junks and watching the moonlight."This is very nice" I said. "Romantic" I teased and Scott snorted."Lame" he said and i hit his sh
Scott pulled me out of the water until we were back in his trunk again. I thought I blanked out. I literally swallowed a lot of water through my nose. Scott removed the blanket from the floor of the trunk."Take your shirt off" he said. I know this is not the time to argue so I pulled the wet material up and over my head. Scott's eyes blazed on my skin before he wrapped me up in the blanket. I touched my cheeks sure they were flushing red. I was putting on a cotton bra. Not so attractive. But Scott didn't call me out on it. I was expecting him to say something sarcastic or rude but he was too busy in trying to keep me warm.If I did know better, I'd say his eyes flickered over my body appreciatively."Why'd you jump into the water like that" Scott scolded."You tickled me. Your not that innocent yourself"He frowned "Don't start with me"I rolled my eyes at him. S
I don't have classes today because it's Saturday but I went to grab some books from the library anyway. I'm working on an assignment. Since I was in school, I just stopped by that cafe to grab coffee. Usually, it's me and David but he's not here now. I wasn't so surprised to see few students were at the cafe but I smiled when a familiar red head waved at me.Kale. Scott's friend from the other day. He jogged up to me leaving his bunch of friends. Including a sassy looking blonde who kept sizing me up. What the hell? She's pretty and all that but I don't see the chances of me and her becoming friends."Stormy. Been a while" he surprisingly hugged me but I didn't flinch. I guess it's common among college students. Shaking seems old fashioned. I shrugged away with a smile."Nice to see here. You almost never come here""Yeah...this place is crap" he snorted and I chuckled.
I tried on the last gown there was to try. I and Rose picked a lot. All of different colours and sizes. All were cute and pretty but this white one really caught my eyes. I stared at myself in the mirror. it has a lace neck, it's not cut too low but sure to show some of my chest. It was short to my knee and flay like a ballet gown. Definitely a garden party dress.. I smiled as i walked out and Rose had that same expression I had on my face on her. This is it!"Your so getting that dress" Rose chimed.While I showered getting ready for Scott to pick me, Rose offered to help make pancakes. I rolled my hair into a towel and tied one round my chest as I joined Rose in the kitchen."Here's your pancake" she placed two huge pancakes on my plate and dropped a tiny one for Hailey."Thanks for making it" I said."No deal. I was hungry for one anyway" Rose dropped the last of the c
Storm POV"You don't like it?" I asked him. He seemed to be struggling with the right word to say and then he scratched behind his head. A nervous habit. I narrowed my eyes. I thought he'd like the gown."It's so....white" he said and smiled. What does that even mean. I moved out of the way so he could enter. And just like that, my mood had changed instantly. Scot swears!"Fuck! Storm you look lovely. I just didn't know what to say" he says but his eyes are so unsure. What's up with him."Let's just go to the party" I told him and grabbed my purse from my counter. The black little thing seemed to go well with my heels."Are you sure? Cause we can stay if you want""Scott!" I scold. He folds his arm leaning against the wall watching me as I paraded round the house. Not like there was anything I was doing, I just want everything to be perfect.
David led me to where a tall slim woman with blonde hair stood. I suppose she's David's mom. They had the same hair colour, only hers were darker blonde. Her eyes were light brown like her sons. He went and kissed her cheek."Mom...this is Storm" he said. I pushed my hand out to shake the woman. her smile was heart warming. Her hands were soft and tender. She smiled at me."Nice to meet you dear. David has told me a lot about you" she huffs and I grin."Good things I hope" I smiled. David winked at me and I chuckled. Scott came up behind me and handed me a glass of what I assume is strawberry drink. I rolled my eyes at him. Everyone else gets wine."Scott honey. I'm glad you came" Davids mom hugged Scott but he just stood there like a statue. The good thing is the woman still kept hugging him and showing him love. David pulled me aside."I got to show you my study room" he said with smiles
The lady intended to place her hands round Scott's shoulder but he gave her a stare so she just clapped her hands together. I chuckled. What a kill joy."I'm Storm" I said . Val looked thoughtful for a while as if she's heard about me before then she looked at Scott for a while. He must have mentioned me."Well, Storm. Nice name" she grinned. "Oh look. Aunt's singing"We all turned our gaze to the front where Danielle was singing a welcome and thank you song at the same time. I covered my mouth giggling as I saw David shaking his head and chucking."This is ridiculous" Scott whispered in my ear while wrapping his arms round my waist. That small gesture made my body tingle. It's like that anytime he touches me. I feel a pull. I wonder if he feels it too. Like a shot of electricity go through me and it doesn't kill me. Instead, it livens me."No it's not. I think it's cute" I giggled.
*songs*Cadmium- GhostJames Bay- UsIllenium- Crawl outta love******"Scott never comes to any family function or stuffs like these" Danielle shook her head while still looking at Scott through the window. I stared at him too and now he was just looking around. David was still talking but with someone else that joined them. Scott looked terribly bored."Why? Why doesn't he come?" I ask."Scott has a complicated and terrifying past. One which he's trying hard to overcome " Danielle smiled sadly. She seemed to me, closer to Scott than even his parents. I've only met Scott's mom and Val but the love this woman felt for him was more han their love. I'm sure."How complicated?"She shook her head as if shaking some bad thoughts away. "He's been in battle with himself since he was five"I gasp. That young? What happened. I wanted to ask
