Chapter 3 - Hazel Eyes

When Liz got home it was awesome. She walked in the room without noticing Luke was there, she kept talking about the last school week. When Luke said "hi mom" she stopped talking and turned around slowly. When she saw him, she started crying and laughing, Luke just got up the couch walked to her and hugged her. It was seriously one of the most beautiful moments I've ever seen.


That afternoon we left Liz and Luke alone so they could have mom and son time. I was in the car with Jake and Alex singing to Roar by Katy Perry.


"Do we have to go home?" Alex asked when the song ended.


"Of course you have to go home. Your mom probably misses you."


I stopped the car outside their house and we all got out.


We walked to the house and Jake knocked on the door. Their mom opened and smiled as she saw her kids.


"Bye Sophie!" Alex and Jake said at the same time entering the house.


"I'll pay you next week Sophie, is that okay?" I should explain this. When i got here one night Liz and her sister wanted to go out but no one could take care of the boys, so I said I could do it. They said they were going to pay me. I really didn't care about the money, I enjoy being with those 2 pistachios.


I was sitting alone in the car, I started driving to the park, Luke and Liz probably want time to talk, spend some mother and son time. I parked a few blocks away from the park and started walking with my headphones on. After 20 minutes of walking I saw an empty bench and sat there. A very handsome boy passed by running he stopped and walked back to where I was sitting,he jumped and landed at the back of the bench. A lot of girls that were running approached us.


"Did you saw a boy running?" One of the girls asked.


"Yeah," The boy is hiding obviously "He ran in that direction" I said pointing to my right.


"Thanks." Everyone started running again.


"Are they all gone?" the weird boy said still hiding.


"Wait," 5 more girls passed us "Yup they're all gone." He got up and sat next to me.


"Thanks so much." he looked exhausted. He turned around and looked at me. "I'm Ashton." He said extending his hand towards me and smiling.


"I'm Sophie." I said as I grabbed his hand and shook it.


"Nice to meet you Sophie." He was always smiling.


"You're not from around here am I right?" Do I look that American?


"How did you know?


"Your accent." He took his cellphone out of his pocket. "I gotta go, but I would love to take the girl that saved me to dinner." Is he asking me out? "So, um, can I have your number?" he said nervously.


"Um...I don't know you at all." Yeah he's cute but I don't know him."you could be a serial killer."


"That's your first impression of me? a serial killer? I don't know if I should feel offended!" He said with a a peachy voice. I laughed and he did too.


"So.....are you going to give it to me?" How could someone say no to that smile? That beautiful smile.


"Ok I will, give me your phone." He gave it to me and I saved my number and gave it back to him.


He looked at his phone and smiled.


"Well Sophie, I have to go but I'll call you ok? I just nodded he smiled and the stood up.


"Bye"


"Bye"


After a few minutes my phone rang.


"Hello?" I said.


"I had to be sure it was your number."


===========================


I opened the door and entered the house. It was all dark, so I assume Liz and Luke were out. I walked to my room and closed the door. I put on my pajamas and decided to watch a movie. I grabbed my laptop and opened Netflix.


I was about to fall asleep when my phone made a sound telling me I had a text.


Hey Sophie.


Who is this? -Sophie


Just a serial killer over here. -Serial Killer


Haha you shouldn't tell people you're a serial killer. -S


What are you doing on Friday? -Sk


I don't know. Why? - S


I was planning on kidnapping you and then kill you. Serial killer stuff. -SK


Haha how about 7? -S


I'll kidnap you at 7 then. :)


See you on Friday! -SK


I smiled to myself and left my phone next to my pillow.


*knock, Knock*


"come in." Liz walked in with a huge smile on her face. I was happy for her. I know How much she missed Luke for the past months.


"Hey Liz. How was your day?"


"It was wonderful. I had time to catch up with Luke, he told me everything he did." She couldn't stop smiling. "We are having a little welcome party for Luke on Friday at 7"


"This Friday? As in 2 days from today?"


"Yeah this Friday." She said and then looked at me and said, "You got plans?" I smiled and nodded. "Oh my god! Sophie that is wonderful!" I don't have a lot of friends here. Actually I don't have friends at all. i just hang out with Alex, Jake, Liz and Andrew (Liz's Husband). "What's his name?" She said excited.


"How do you know is a boy?" I asked. I could've met a girl and hang out and stuff...


"So it is a boy. C'mon tell me whats his name." seriously how did she knew?


"his name is Ashton" I smiled thinking of him. I looked at her and she was looking at my bed thinking.


"Is he going to pick you up?" I totally forgot to give him the address.


"I should text him the address" how could someone forget that. You're unbelievable Sophie!


"We brought pizza, come downstairs when you're ready and we'll keep talking." I nodded. She left the room and i grabbed my phone to text ashton.


Hey! I forgot to give you my address.- S.


My mom just told me my sister crashed the car last week.-SK


:O Is she ok? -S


I walked downstairs and sat next to Liz, she opened the box and i grabbed a piece.Luke sat next to me after he looked at me full of hate. i don't get why he hates me. My phone vibrate.


She was okay until i killed her. Do you mind if we meet at the mall? -SK


I could ask Liz if I can borrow the car, I mean no one is going to use it because of Luke's party.


"Liz, do you think i can borrow the car on Friday?"


"No!" Luke said as soon as i finished.


"Why not?" seriously what's his problem?


"'Cause its my car." Is he serious? It's not his car.And i was asking Liz not him!


"It's not your car Luke. And yes Sophie you can borrow the car on Friday." I smiled and thanked her. I text Ashton.


I can pick you up. -S


No. I'm the boy, I'm supposed to pick you up.And it's supposed to be a kidnapping-SK


I can drive there and then you can drive. Deal? -S


You got a deal guuuurl. -SK


I put my phone next to my plate. Liz said she was very tired and went to bed. I was now alone with Luke. None of us was talking.


"So your not coming to my party on Friday?" Is he actually talking to me? "Yes, I'm talking to you."


"Did i said that out loud?" He just nodded.That happens to me very often. When i was little I once thought that a girl was annoying, turns out i wasn't thinking it. I said it in front of her.


"So what are you doing on Friday?" Luke asked as he looked at his pizza.


"Um I have a date." I said a bit nervous. Don't know exactly why.


"HA! Who would want to date you?" WHAT?


"What is your problem? Why do you hate me so much?"I said a bit pissed. I met this boy today but everything he says to me is full of hate. He just looked at me and said nothing. He didn't expected that.He looked a little bit sad.


"Goodnight." I stood up and ran to my room. I don't know why I shouted, I'm not like that. My phone rang.


Goodnight Sophie :) -Ash


He wrote Ash for the first time since we started texting each other. :)


Goodnight Ash :) -Sophie
