Linden
I sat at my unusual table in the corner of the cafeteria. I was used to sitting alone. Again, the principals daughter. Nobody really wanted to be my friend. They were terrified of my dad, even though he was a very nice guy. He was just a little bit of an alcoholic. But, someone did sit by me today.
"Hello Lady Linden."Aspen said. I giggled. He had this whole Southern Gentleman air around him. It was interesting and appealing. He had sandy blonde hair and beautiful green eyes. I bit my bottom lip.
"Hi Aspen."I replied as he sat down next to me. He smiled.
"So, do you want me to pick you up Tuesdays and Thursday?"he asked.
"Nah. I prefer to walk everywhere. Just give me your address and I'll find it."I replied, taking a bite of my sandwich. He smiled again.
"Well, I don't have an address. I live in a clearing in the forest." he said. I became confused. I had been in the woods a million times but I never saw a house.
"I've never seen a house in the forest before."I told him.
"Yeah. It's kind of a backwoods mansion and it's really hard to find."he explained.
"I guess it would be easier if you gave me a ride."I said. He smiled.
"I would be honored too."he replied.
