《This Gift I Was Given (The Boys That Lives In My House)》Chapter 51
Advertisement
I wake up and look over at Felix who's already awake, he's looking at me but when I look over at him he looks away quickly.
"Morning" I can't help but laugh
"Morning" he laughs as he scratches his head
He leans over and grabs his shoes and puts them on, "I better go get ready for school. I'll pick you up in a hour" he tells me
"Okay and your welcome to use the door" I smirk
"Party pooper" he smirks back and opens my door and shuts it behind him
I get up and hurry and get ready for school. I go outside just as Felix is walking to his car.
I walk over to his car and get in the passenger side. "Hey" he says as I get in
"Hello again" I say to him
Felix turns the radio on as we drive to school, he quietly sings along and I don't think he realizes he doing it unless he just getting more comfortable with me. I try not to stare at him as he quietly sings along and taps his fingers on the steering wheel, it's actually kind of cute but I would never tell him that.
Before I know it we are at school, we go to our classes and then it's lunch.
"So I was wondering did you want to go shopping after school?" Samara asks me as we eat lunch
"Yeah that sounds fun" I smile and works out since Felix has therapy anyway
"When are me and you going to hang out?" Cole says to me
"We are hanging out now" I smile sweetly
Samara drives us to where some stores are.
"Felix has been in a better mood lately" Samara smirks at me as we look through clothes
"Huh? I wonder why?" I ask her as I look at a pair of pants

"I think it's you" she says which catches me by surprise
"Me?" I look at her like she's crazy
She gives me a looks "ever since you moved here he's actually been well not the old Felix but he doesn't seem as miserable"
I can't help but shake my head"Me and Felix Barely can stand each other I mean we fight like cats and dogs" I try to convince her
"Okay okay" she puts her hands up in surrender
She picks up a pair of jeans and shows them to me "What do you think?" She asks me changing the subject which I'm glad
"I like them" I tell her
we go to the coffee shop afterwards and just sit there talking drinking our coffee.
Samara looks at her phone "ugh! My mom is blowing up my phone saying I need to go and pick up my sister" she says grabbing her stuff quickly
"okay" I nod understanding
"O I need to take you home though" she remembers and looks over at me and then outside because it looks like it's about to rain
I shake my head "I'll just text my aunt and she'll take me home" I say because I know she needs to hurry
She gives a smile that reads that she's sorry "I'm sorry. I'll see you at school" she says as she leaves
As soon as she leaves it starts to rain, I text aunt Lora to see if she can come pick me up but she doesn't answer. I sit here for a couple more minutes hoping it'll stop, but it doesn't look like it.
I look over and see Jared in The corner on his computer, he must sense me staring because he looks up and gives me a friendly smile.
I get up and walk over to him. "Hey" I greet him because he is a nice guy and since I'm bored

"I promise I do leave this place sometimes" he laughs "sit" he gestures to the chair across from him
I sit down "working?"I ask making conversation
He nods "yeah it's a 24hour job but someone's got to do it" he shrugs and takes a sip of his coffee "so how's school?" He asks me
I shrug "it's fine"
"Yeah I never was a fan of school" he tells me honestly, which makes me laugh
"Its not hard or anything and I am making some friends it's just doesn't keep my interest if that makes sense" I say and hope he doesn't give me a lecture
He nods like he does understand "trust me I get it I almost dropped out myself and out of college but I'm am glad I did graduate"
I smile and look down at my phone to make sure aunt Lora didn't call or text me back.
"You waiting for someone?" Jared asks me
"I called my aunt to see if she could drive me home but she must be in a meeting" I tell him
"I can drive you home" he says like its no big deal
"No no it's okay" I shake my head
He closes his laptop "I'm done anyway and I'm going home so I can just drop you off its honestly not that big of a deal"
"Uh I don't know" I bite my lip not knowing if I should just waiting until it stops raining or until aunt Lora calls me back
He nods I guess understanding "I promise I'm not a axe murderer or anything but I understand" he gives me a small smile and gets up and grabs his stuff
I watch as he puts his stuff away, he doesn't seem like a murderer"Okay I don't live to far" I finally say
He grabs his umbrella and he holds it over my head while we walk to his car, I feel bad that he's basically soaked. When we get in the car he put the heater on and I tell him the direction to my house.
I do feel a little weird being in a car with a stranger, but I don't really think of him as a stranger for some weird reason. He doesn't seem like he would hurt me.
"You warm enough?" He asks me
"Yeah I'm okay?" I say and look at him because he looks like he's cold
I look around his car trying to figure him out, I see junk food bags on the floor and paper scattered everywhere. There's some metal band CDs and clothes in the backseat. It almost looks like he lives in here.
"Yeah I know I'm a mess" he laughs, he must have notice me looking around
"I don't have room to judge I'm not the neatest person either" I tell him
I look down at my feet and notice a funeral home brochure . I look at him and open my mouth and then stop not wanting to ask just in case.
