[NATALIE'S POV]
I couldn't really figure out why I acted like that in front of Oli. I don't know why I let him hold my hand and why I held it right back. Clearly, my mind's all messed up but for some reason being around him made me feel better. It's as if he was one of my oldest friends, one I trusted already but he couldn't be because I've never seen him in my entire life.
I stopped crying after a while as he wiped my tears away. We started to talk and know a bit more about each other. I noticed that he was a really nice guy and that he was sweet and everything. One weird thing was that I couldn't stop smiling whenever he looked at me. It's like instant happiness when I was with him.
"By the way, where's Matt?" I asked out of the blue.
"I don't really know. Probably he's texting his girlfriend or something," Oli said and we both got up.
"Oh okay," I said checking the time.
"You hungry?" he asked and I nodded.
We both went in to the kitchen and I sat on one of the chairs by the counter. I watched him as he raided the refrigerator.
"What are you doing?" Matt said coming in from the back door.
"Looking for something to eat," Oli said rummaging through the first few drawers.
"For you or for her?" Matt asked. Somehow, he seemed kinda pissed. I wasn't really sure about why but I sensed it from the way he was talking.
"Both," Oli said.
"Okay then move," he said pushing Oli out of the way and looking for some food. He took out the bread and the jam and some other spreads.
"Thanks," I told Matt as he left the room.
"Sure," he said without even turning around.
"What's up with him?" I asked Oli who was fixing a sandwich.
"Girl problems I guess," he said handing the sandwich to me.
"Thanks," I said smiling at him.
"Anyway," he said fixing another sandwich as I took a bite.
"What the hell is in here?" I asked with my mouth full
"You've never tried peanut butter and jelly?" he said surprised.
"No," I said. It tasted good to be honest.
"You've got to be kidding me," he said laughing.
"My mom never let me mix things together. She thinks that if I do, I might end up throwing it in the trash. This is pretty good," I said munching more of it.
"Well, thanks," he said biting into his.
I finished my sandwich and washed my hands. I wiped my hands on the towel and sat back on the chair as he made another one for him.
"So, do you go to school?" I asked knowing that the answer would be a definite yes.
"Yea," he said.
"Where?" I asked.
"I go to a boarding school. We're having a break off of school right now that's why I'm here." He said.
"My mom said that I'd be going to a boarding school too but I don't really know which one." I said.
"Maybe we'll see each other then," he said certain.
"But I don't even know where I'm going yet," I said.
"Obviously, we'd be attending the same school because it's the only school in this side of town." He said finishing his sandwich and drinking a bottle of water.
"Well, we never know maybe-"
"Let's just say that we're gonna be attending the same school," he said cutting me off as I smiled. After a moment of silence, he grabbed me by the hand and leaned in to kiss me.
