Oh shit, my knees are starting to shake. Calm down, Anna. I said to myself.
"Boo!" I slapped his back.
He didn't respond.
"Ermm... Are you there?" I tapped his back.
Still no respond.
"What the hell is this, some prank?" I said to myself.
I walked infront of him. He was facing down. I bent down to look at his face. His eyes were closed.
"Hmmm... Maybe he fell asleep." I decided to have sit down first while waiting for him.
I closed my eyes.
"Boo."
"Gaaaaaaah!" I screamed.
Darren chuckled.
"What was that about!" I pinched him. My face flushed red. I was so embarrassed.
"You're so cute." He flashed a grin.
"Don't EVER do that again!" I felt like slapping him.
"Whatever." He continued laughing.
"So what brings you up here? Missed me?" He winked.
"Wh-wha-whats that suppose to mean! I came here almost every night since I don't even remember when." I crossed my arms and looked away. My face was burning hot.
He chuckled.
I looked into his gorgeous eyes. Wait, why aren't they blue. They're grey. So rare. Even more gorgeous!
"What happened to your blue eyes?"
"Er.. I got contacts."
"Oh.." Well that was boring.
"So, what are the real colour of your eyes?" I asked.
"Grey. I only got blue contacts because I wanted to look normal."
"What kind of reason is that??" I thought to myself.
"I thought people usually liked to be rare. Grey eyes are gorgeous."
"Because I'm not normal." He replied.
Thats weird... Not normal? What's that suppose to mean...
"Any girl that sees ur grey eyes will fall for you straight away." I blurted.
"Shoot! I hope he doesn't think I'm flirting with him or whatever!" I scolded myself in my head.
"How bout you?" He grinned cheekily.
"I'm different." I smiled.
"So, why are you so scared of the sun?" I was so curious.
"Personal reasons." His smile faded.
"Oh ok." That was scary.
It was silent for a momment. Darren broke the silence.
"So, have you finished your homework?"
"Yeah. How bout you?" I replied.
"Yep."
I was hugging Mr. Cuddles so tight. Something about Darren made me very scared..
"Hey whats that you got there." He leaned over to my side.
"It's nothing!" I turned away.
"C'mon. Show me!"
He was so fast. In a blink of the eye, he was holding Mr. Cuddles.
He burst out laughing.
"What's so funny. Give him back!!!" I slapped Darren.
"Ouch! Can't you take a joke. It's as cute as you." Darren returned Mr. Cuddles to me and rubbed his cheek.
"Mr. Cuddles doesn't like to be treated that way." I sulked like a 6 year old.
"Mr. Cuddles?!" He burst out laughing again.
"Yeah yeah go on laughing all you want. I don't care." I shivered. It was so cold.
"Okok. Sorry." He tried to stop laughing.
"Ok fine, I'll make it up to you. What do you want?"
"Nothing from you." I was as red as a raging inferno.
"Aren't you cold? You're wearing shorts and a sleeveless shirt."
"A little. Don't worry. It won't kill." I tried to cover up.
"Here." He gave me his jacket.
"Thanks."
So warm... So soft. Definetly cotton. And it smelt so nice. Ok eww that just sounded so sick and wrong.
But it did smell good.
He put his arm over my shoulder after I put on the jacket. It felt like I was electrocuted. I couldn't stop blushing. Good thing he can't really see because its so dark.
Even though his hands were as cold as ice, they made me feel warm. The same way he makes me feel whenever I'm talking to him.
"Wow. Your hand is really cold." I said.
"Really? Must be the wheather."
Weird....
We continued talking till I have no idea what time it was.
"What time is it?" I yawned.
"Erm..." He checked his watch.
"Oh shoot. It's already 4.01 am. I'm late. I really really got to go. Sorry I can't walk you home tonight. I'll make it up to you tomorrow ok? I'll walk with you to school."
"Sure." I was half asleep.
"I'll come at 7.45"
"Sure sure. Nights Darren. See you tomorrow." I got up from the chair.
"Oh right. Your jacket."
He shook his head.
"You can return it to me another time. Don't want the little princess catching a cold." He smiled.
"How bout you? Don't you feel cold?"
He chuckled sarcasticly.
"I'm always cold." He winked.
"Bye, Anna. Please take care."
I wanted to turn back but he wasn't there anymore.
"What?? Where did he go?" I rubbed my eyes.
"What? I'm still here." He raised his eyebrow. He was right behind me.
"Wh-wh-aat. I thought you were gone. I must be crazy. I'm too sleepy."
"Sorry I can't walk you home." He apologized again.
"No problem. Not your fault. Bye."
I walked home and went to sleep right away. Gosh I was tired. Only another 2 hours to sleep.
