~Zander's POV~
She led me to her car. "So what exactly did you want to show me?" I asked. "A life full of adventure!" she said putting her hands up in the air like if she were saying ta-da! I laughed. "Life full of adventure? I'm in!" I beamed. She put the car in drive and we drove away from the mall. I could see all the city buildings as we drove by them. Tall, shiny, and busy. People were walking all around. Some with brief cases and other's with shopping bags. People talking on phones, people sipping coffee. We passed all of this as we made our way to a huge incorporation building. It was high built and glossy. As we walked inside I noticed the theme. It was modernized. It wasn't colorful just tasteful. "So how does a big corporation building for the man connect with adventure?" I questioned. She motioned for me to be quiet by putting a finger up to her lips like saying shush. As we walked into the elevator I say glances from the front desk but as soon as they saw Kiera they thought nothing more of it. "Maybe her mom works here" I thought. As she pressed the button I noticed we were going to the twelfth floor. I looked at her confusingly. "You'll see" she said with a wink. I left it alone at that. I noticed a huge gap between us so I slid next to her, causing her to giggle. I went a little closer until she finally stepped close enough that our arms touched. I looked at her weirdly, but she didn't pay attention because the door was opening. She offered me to step out first. I would've let her go first since she is a chick but the look in her eyes made me step forward. Almost as if she was begging me to go first. I soon heard the elevator doors close which made me suspicious that she could have still been in the elevator. I suddenly stopped and she bumped into me. "Suspicion denied" I thought. I laughed. She was only a few inches from me, maybe even centimeters. I could almost feel her breath as she peered over my back. I turned to face her. "So why are you so scared?" I asked. "No reason, just a door majestically opened by itself here when it was empty and ran for my life is all" she said panicky. I raised my eyebrow. Now that was weird. I turned back around. I stepped forward and looked into the first two cubicles. Nothing. "Maybe she just let the fact that this place is abandoned and creepy get to her" I thought. Then it happened. The door for the last cubicle. It was closed but now it was slowly opening. I saw Kiera's face. She didn't move or anything but her whole body showed fear. I picked her up and ran towards the front of a cubicle.
~Kiera's POV~
I buried my whole face into Zander's body. I closed my eyes shut trying to forget what was going on. Man could I be a scardy cat at times. I mentally cursed at myself for being so vulnerable right now but I couldn't care less. For all I knew, this could be the day I would never forget. Whether it was because something bad was going to happen or Zander and I escaped. I was hoping for the last one when Zander picked me up again and ran for the stairs. Thank god he had a brain and used the stairs instead of the elevator like me. We had stopped at the 18th stair, far from the 12th. He was still holding me as he walked into the elevator in the stairway. "Why would they have an elevator in the stairway?" I thought. This place was weird. I found my feet touched the ground of the elevator but I was still holding onto him. I pulled away to find him staring at me. "So what floor?" he said breaking the silence. "The top" I said. As he pressed the button I noticed he was scratched on his arm. "Are you ok?" I asked. He looked at it confused. "I didn't even notice" he said. It wasn't bad, just a scratch. "Do you know how you could've gotten it?" I asked. He looked as if he were trying to remember something. "Oh yea, when I picked you up I scraped it against a wall but I didn't think it would make a mark" he said. The doors opened. We walked out to see Anya walking over towards us. "Where wer-" she started. "Oooh!" she said finally noticing Zander. I gave her a don't-even-finish-that-sentence-if-you-want-to-keep-your-tongue look. She gave me a My-bad-sorry look. I look to Zander. "Let's go clean up your arm" I said. "It's fine really" he protested. I went over to him, took his arm with the scratch on it and poked it hard. "Oww!" he exclaimed. "Mhm, come on" I said. He followed me as I went to the front desk and asked for their first aid kit. We sat in the lounge as I cleaned up his arm, him occasionally wincing at the pain of the alcohol cleaning it. Finally after all that I walked up to put the stuff away eventually returning to find him staring at his arm. "Thank you" he said. "You're welcome" I beamed. "You were not kidding when you said a life of adventure" he joked. "Nope" I said popping the p. "Are we going to go back?" he asked. "If you go I'll go" I offered. "Deal!" he said putting out his hand for me to shake. I shook his hand. "Pleasure doing business with you Mr. Robbins" I joked. "You to Mrs. Rea" he replied. "Do you need me to drop you off home or mall?" I asked grabbing my keys. "Mall, got to meet with my friend" he said. "You could come?" he offered. "Thanks but I'm going to stay home with my mom before she leaves for business in New York for six weeks" I said. "Are you going with her?" he asked. "Nope I'm staying home" I replied. "That's cool" he said shyly. I laughed. "Yea I'd rather be here with my friends" I said. As we walked out the building I saw Anya at the front door making faces. Zander turned back to look at what I was looking at but I quickly turned him around shouting "Let's go" happily. As I drove up into the mall I saw him recognize one of his buddies. I waved by as I drove off but not before him shouting "See you later!" I drove home into the garage and went inside through the garage door finally making my way up to the lounge. This time I was one level lower than before. It had panoramic windows that over looked the blue sky that was setting with the sun. I checked the time to find I had a new message from Zander.
Zander: Heyy
Me: Hi
Zander: We should hang out again
Me: I agree
Zander: great, always fun to hang with you
Me: you too, so where should we hang out?
Zander: The gang and I were going to the Carnival tomorrow
Me: Sounds great, text me the details tomorrow so we can all meet up
Zander: as long as you promise to go on a ride with me!
Me: Lol, ok
Zander: Kewl, I'll let you get back with your mom. Bye
Me: Baii
I through my phone on the couch and grabbed my pillow and screamed all my excitement into it. I was excited for tomorrow especially since I was so close to him today. Of course I wasn't enjoying the moments at the time but as I look back on it now, I was determined to enjoy every moment I spent with them. Right now though, I had to pick out an outfit!
Hey hoped you enjoyed reading this, I should have another chapter up today if not tomorrow so we'll see how that goes. Anyway, keep being awesome!
