Hard Knock
Life
~Chapter 9
I quickly took a hot shower and put
on a pair of pajama pants and lace tank top. I decided to grab a
light white sweater and my book and read on my bedroom balcony
that over looked the left side of my house. I walked out and
there was a soft
breeze, I breathed it in and sat down on the stone
railing.
“Wow, you
again?” I heard a familiar voice laugh.
My head shot up
and sure enough, the guy that walked with me home was standing on
the balcony directly across from mine.
“Are you
following me?” I rolled my eyes, trying to hide my
excitement.
“I’ve
been here for two days and already being accused?” he
smiled. He was casually leaning against his door frame, damn he
looked good.
“No…” I said
narrowing my eyes, “but you still haven’t even told
me your name.”
“Nor have
you told me yours.” He said raising
an eyebrow, and taking out his phone.
“True, be
right back mystery person.” I said
sarcastically running into my room. I heard my ring tone going
and grabbed my phone and checked caller ID,
Damon?
“Hello?” I
answered.
“Hello
mystery girl,” I heard him laugh.
I gasped and
walked onto my balcony, and there was the guy with his phone
against his ear and a wide smile across his
face.
I hung up the
phone and laughed, “Classy, how the hell did you get a hold
of my phone?”
“I have my
ways, and now you know my name. Yours is Jess
right?”
“Yes sir,
Jessica Gilbert.” I said
proudly.
His face went
serious and he looked away, “I know.”
There was a
moment of silence as I watched him stare off into his
backyard.
“So, how
old are you? Do you know what school you will be going to?”
I asked trying to break the silence; I still really wanted to
talk to him. But he didn’t say a word or look
up.
Why do you do
that? I thought to myself, you ignore
me when all I want to know if we’ll have the same class or
something.
Just then he
looked up and smiled, “I’m turning 17 in 2 weeks on
the 27th.”
I counted the
days exactly, I felt really weird but I randomly just decided to
see exact. Fifteen days tomorrow, I smiled but I didn’t
know what I was planning on doing. He laughed too as if he
knew.
We talked for a
bit longer then my phone started to ring. He gave me a
questioning look, and I checked to see who it
was.
“Hey,
it’s Keith I have to take this, text me soon?” I
asked.
He nodded and
disappeared into his room, I stood there looking to where he was
standing then picked up the phone and went back into my
room.
