Chapter 19
“Sorry, I’m late. Hayden says, sitting opposite from me. His hair was wet, and little droplets of water fell from it down to his shoulder blades
His hair messy, yet he still manages to look so damn hor
“It’s okay: I didn’t wait that long. I told him, since it was the truth.
“I’m starving, I haven’t had time to eat anything since lunch. He glanced through the menu, and I picked mine from the table, going through it. I settled for sandwiches and a smoothie. Hayden was getting a big burger with fries and a smoothie.
“So what did you think about the game? Hayden trails off as I steal a Try off his plate. I just couldn’t help myself.
“I will admit, it was fun. I have never been to a school game before”
Hayden seemed shocked at what I had said. “Not even once,” he asked, raising up one finger.
I shook my head before speaking. “No.”
“Why,” he asked, stuffing a bunch of fries in his mouth.
I shrug my shoulders. I guess 1 preferred Netflix and chill to a school game on a Friday night”
He nods his head. “So what are your thoughts now?”
“If you hadn’t asked me to come, I probably would be at home binge watching my favourite TV shows, but like I said, it was fun, totally didn’t expect it to be, but it was.”
A smirk graced his face. “Aren’t you glad 1 asked you to come.”
“Don’t get cocky on me now.” The both of us let out a laugh. This was the first time we had a reasonable conversation and laughed. I guess it wasn’t bad getting to know him more.
“Since we are trying to be civil with each other, Jet’s play ten questions, live for me and five for you” Hayden suggested.
“Sure, that doesn’t sound like a bad idea.” I say, putting the last sandwich in my mouth, then stretching my hands to take a few fries off Hayden’s plate.
“Okay then, favourite colour
“blue.” I smiled, thinking of the best colour ever.
“Aren’t you full of surprises? I thought girls liked pink.“1 let out a snort. Hayden pushed the plate of fries in my direction since I had eaten most of
them.
I gave him a sheepish smile, and he playfully rolled his eyes. “I’m not most girls.” I ass playfully, making him smile. “My turn. What is your favourite animal!”
“The lion” He wasted no time replying: I tilted my head in a way that told him to continue. The lion have always and always been the king of the jungle,” he stated in a matter–of–fact tone,
“What do you do in your free time? It was Hayden’s turn to ask.
1 do a lot of things, but if I was really bored, I just spent the day singing.”
“Sing something for me. I choke on the fries and hurriedly picked my smoothies, my eyes pot moving from Hayden unwavering ones
“No, there is no way I am singing here, especially in front of you, I exclaimed
“Why I don’t see anything wrong in that.”
“I haven’t sang in front of anyone before, not even Maddie and Sofie.”
“Then I guess I would be the first; it might not be now. I am confident that I can get you to sing for me. His eyes held promises and determination.
“Then you will probably wait a lifetime because it won’t happen. I tell him, hoping for him to hack down, but he doesn’t. He is just way too

Chapter 19
“Let’s get out of here.” He smiles, grabbing my hand. He put the money on the table as we walked out of the place, hand in hand.
“How about we both get ice cream?” I point to the ice cream shop beside the cafe.
“Sure, I don’t see why not.”
“Go Team Chocolate! I exclaim
He gave me a look like I was crazy, and he had a look of disgust on his face, “Chocolate, that’s just gross.”
My mouth opened in disbelief; he just started World War III. No one messes with my chocolate. “There is no better flavour than chocolate!”
“I would like to disagree, vanilla will always be the best.
I scowl at him. “Chocolate is the best”
1 still st
stand by my word. Vanilla.”
“chocolate”
vanilla
chocolate
“Ab, 1 win” did a victory dance while Hayden stood beside me with a pout on his face. Cute
We walk into the ice cream parlour, and I breathe in the sweet aroma: it smells so good.
“Hey Hayden. E bello vederti, chi e quella bella signora accanto a te.” I looked at the older woman behind the counter. She speaks in a different language; it sounds like Italian, and I had no idea what she said.
“E anche tu Adeline. I stare at Hayden, amazed and shocked. I didn’t know he spoke Italian, it’s not like I gave him any sort of attention till now.
I won’t lie, he sounds so freaking hot. You can’t blame me my hormones were running high.
“Questa è Bree, una mia aamica” I heard my name, but I had no idea what he said whether he was insulting me right now or not. I will go with the latter. “Bree, this is Adeline. A close friend of my family”
I nod with a smile on my face. “Nice to meet you, Adeline. I stick my hand out to shake her, but she yanks me into a hug.
Damn, she was strong.
“It’s nice to meet you too, Bree. I must say you are really beautiful.” I smiled, and red stained my face. I was flustered. “Non gliel’hai ancor detto.”
I wonder what she said to him because Hayden’s ear turned red before he answered her. “Niente tata, ma sto lavorando per conquistare il suo
“What can I get you two?”
“I’m going to take the usual while Bree would like a chocolate cone.” Hayden says, looking at me,
We hung around till we finished our ice cream as we chatted with Adeline. I must confess, I really like hanging out with Hayden. I didn’t know he was kind and funny, I guess there was more to him I didn’t know about.
My phone rang, interrupting my thoughts. I looked at the caller ID and saw it was my moms “Hey mom.”
“Bree, why aren’t you back yet?”
Shit I forgot to tell her I was going to come back late since I didn’t plan to hang out with Hayden after the game. Im sorry, mom. I forgot to tell you I was going to come back a little bit late?
“Dr’i ten: I want you home before 10:0,” she says, ending the call.
Thave to go home.”
Is everything okay?” Hayden asked worriedly.

“Let me drop you off.”
