Claires pov- (3 months later)
When I left Morganville I headed for my hometown, Longview, the place I was brought up it was the only place I could think of. I have been on the streets for 3 months now and it's been ruff but if ginger wasn't there I don't know what I'd do. Ginger's my best friend … not saying Eves not my friend anymore it wasn't her fault I got kicked out but…. Gingers been though a lot with me, he's helped me so much I don't no how I will repay him.
"So how much did you get?" ginger said knocking me out of my day dream
"Huh" I said confused
"How much did you get tapping" he said by tapping ginger meant begging
"Ohh" I said looking in my empty coffee cup that how held change "urmm 3 dollars and 55 cents"
"Wow that good … I just got 1 dollar and 30 cent, guess they only go for pretty faces like you" he said smiling, ruffling his over long dark reddish hair.
I blushed scarlett "shut up" I said play hitting him in the arm
"Ouch" he said holding his arm pretending it hurt "I only speak the truth" he said grinning.
Sometimes the way ginger acts reminds me of Shane…his good side not his bad side … ginger has never been bad to me. I don't have I crush on him or anything, were just friends and that's the way ginger feels about me as well.
"Well I'm hungry fancy sharing a bag of chips my treat" I said smiling
Gingers pov-
"Well I'm hungry fancy sharing a bag of chips my treat" she said smiling
'God her smile is beautiful" I thought I just like her as a friend and when I made comments about her being pretty I was just teasing or being nice but the truth was I had a really big crush on her.
"Sure" I said smiling and off with walked to the shops
No ones pov –
Ginger and Claire walked to the shops smiling not noticing the man watching them from a distance….
