My head throbbed the next morning every noise sounded loud and I could tell I wouldn't like today very much, on the plus side I hadn't been sick and didn't feel sick. I went downstairs and I could hear Rick following me and watching my every move, I filled a large cup with water and forced myself to drink it and then refilled it again sitting down at the table with the others nibbling on a plain piece of toast.
Rick seated himself halfway down the table and I kept catching him looking at me. Everyone chatted and it seemed as though they were shouting, and when Johnny and Bailey began to argue again as they did nearly every morning I got more annoyed than usual.
"Shut up" I said Bailey shut his mouth but Johnny kept talking to him so I got the rest of my toast and threw it at his head when he looked round I said again
"I said shut up idiot" I stood up pushing my chair away Rick went to get up but I pushed his chair as I passed. When I was putting away what I had worn yesterday I found a piece of paper in the pocket with a phone number on and Wills name scrawled underneath. I added the number and texted him having the general how are you what you doing conversation before we started talking about some party he wanted me to go to with him in a week or so. After talking to him I slept through the remainder of the day until the next morning when I was going to meet Will and Rick came in just as I was about to leave.
"Summer I need to talk to you?"
"Okay" I replied sitting on the bed he sat next to me before speaking
"I don't think you should meet Will anymore his trouble"
"You can't tell me who I can be friends with and I've gotten to know him he's not what everyone says he is. He is sensitive, kind and he cares about me like no one else has before" I told him
"But he can't offer you what I can give you" Rick pleaded "he will get you into trouble I can take care of you" he moved closer to me his face a few centimetres from mine
"Rick no don't ruin this, were good friends don't ruin that please" I said as he leant closer. He kissed me feebly and I batted him away
"Rick no were just friends okay" I got up and walked quickly away and out the house so he couldn't follow me. I met Will and we went to the shopping centre and to my surprise he took me to the half where all the expensive, designer shops were. When he saw me looking a little uncomfortable he whispered
"Don't worry I can afford this" he said I was polite enough not to ask how he had got this money and I think I'd rather not know anyway. He bought me a beautiful summer dress from Chanel which I asked him to not buy cause it was too expensive, he got himself a sort of fragrance from Gucci. We ate in none other than Nando's as they did the best food anywhere and he insisted on paying at the end. We made our way out to the river side and sat having an ice cream and after we finished he turned to look at me,
"So is this our first date then"
"Yes if you want it to be" I said shyly, he was asking me out
"Of course I do" he smiled making me blush he placed his fingers around my chin lifting my head up so our lips met, his hand then slid around my neck holding me to him. It was like my dream we kissed for the first time in real life as this was real. In a dream you can only see it, in life you experience it all the touch of his hand against my back and my face, the smell of him against me the soft touch of his lips experienced, against mine. I could see his eyes shining with happiness and his face lit up as I kissed him back.
