Misunderstanding
"Mate your on cloud nine, which is messed up to say you had your community service yesterday, work till 4am this morning and now community service again, what's going on bro?" Tom, who I was staying with asked.
I chuckled at him, he knew me well. "Aloud to be happy aint I?" I told him as I got my coat on ready to leave for my community service.
"Wouldn't be a girl involved would there?" He smirked, slapping the back of my head. I chuckled at him, shaking my head as I reached the front door. "Uh joe?" Tom shouted through the hallway just as I was about to walk through the door. "What's up?" "My old mans got them keys for you to have a look around that flat" Tom shouted. "Tell him ill take it, get the keys for me today mate" I shouted back. "Joey, you haven't even had a look around it" "just get the keys, I'm desperate" I aid shutting the door behind me.
"Morning Sally" I said, walking into her office and signing myself in. I could tell she was starting o warm up to me now, her eyes didn't look like they wanted to fly out of her head and strangle me no more.
"You'll be rebuilding the art room today" Sally said. I raised an eyebrow at her in question. "Someone broke in last night and trashed it all, kids we think" she sighed. Who even does that? Especially to a hospital treating people for cancer, they don't have much here, they don't need it taking away from them.
"That's messed up, why would someone do that?" I asked shaking my head. "Your guess is as good as mine, you'll be partnered up with so done though, she volunteered" Sally said. Great I'd be working with some idiot all day now, judging me for being in community service.
I walked into the art room, there were things smashed everywhere,it had basically been completely trashed. I rubbed my hands down my face, sighing, this was gonna take ages.
"It's a mess ain't it?" I turned around to stood in the doorway. "Hi" she smiled. She blushed a deep reads she caught me checking her out causing me to smirk at her. "Hi Lauren" I smiled back. "So your the volunteer?" I asked.
"Yeah that's me" she said walking into the room. "We better get started then hadn't we?" I told her.
We cleaned the whole room up and all we had to do now was put the table and chairs back in the room.
The conversation flowed pretty freely all day, it's like we'd known each other ages, there was definitely a connection there.
"Do you wanna go and get something to eat?" I asked her after we put the last of the chairs back. "Yeah better go and tell Sally were going to the canteen" she said. I raised an eyebrow at her in confusion. "Why do you have to tell her when you go for lunch?" I asked. "Oh she likes to know where all staff and patients are at all times" she said rolling her eyes.
We reached the canteen, sitting down at at able with our sandwiches and drinks already starting a conversation up.
"So what do you like to do in your free time?" I asked her. She looked up at me from her drink smiling. "Erm, art is my favourite thing to do" she told me. "Ah that's why you volunteered today?" I asked her. "Yeah mainly, what about you?" She asked me. I raised an eyebrow at her in question, her catching me off guard.
"What do you like to do in your spare time?" She giggled. I smiled at her as she giggled, I could honestly say I'd ever seen anyone as beautiful as she was."erm, I play football, work in a club and go out with friends" I told her.
"That's when your not beating people up, yeah?" She smirked. My mouth dropping open as she said this, obviously she found it amusing. "How do you know I'm here because I beat my dad up?" I asked wondering how she found out.
"Whoa! I didn't, you beat your dad up?" She said "huh?" "I knew you were in here for fighting, just not who with" she said. "Ah I see" I smirked. "Why did you do it?" She asked me taking me back a little.
"Nosy, aren't ya?" I said to her. "Sorry" she said, her face dropping. "It's none of my business, I shouldn't of asked" she said, rambling on. "Lauren calm down, I was joking" I said resting my hand on top of hers which was currently on the table.
I noticed her breath in deeply as my hand touched hers. I smirked knowing I was having an affect in her already. Pulling herself together she looked up at me and smiled. I explained everything to her from what happend when I was younger to now and she seemed to understand.
"No offence but your sister sounds pretty stupid to even go and find him in the first place, he sounds a complete douche" she said. I laughed at her and how right she was.
"Now were finished why don't you let me walk you home?" I asked her. She pulled a face at me looking confused. "Erm.. Okay" she said. "What?" I asked her. "No, nothing" she replied.
"Right ill see you tomorrow" Lauren said as we reached Sally's office for me to sign out. "What I thought I was walking you home?" I asked her. "Yeah, I kind of have to stay here?" She said. "What? Your staying at work?" I asked her. She gasped "sorry I thought you had realised. She was confusing me by the second here. "Realised what?" I asked her.
"Joey I don't work here, I'm a patient".
