As am drinking my coffee I keep looking in Noah's eyes, I know I have seen his eyes before but where? Someone behind me hits the back of my chair and I jumped coming out of my glaze. I look and there was no one there.
"Ava? Are you ok, this is the 3 time you jumped, you so jumpy for?" He asked
I look back at him," Sorry, it's just me." I put my coffee cup on the table and I take one of my fingers and ran it around the top of the cup looking at Noah.
"So, Ave, how old are you?" He asked
"I'm 16, I'll be 17 in 2 days," I told him
He nods. "Will if I don't see you by then happy birthday."
I smile and move my head down, my face was turning red again.
"So, Ava not trying to but in your life, is the black eye you have, have anything to do with you being so jumpy?"
Before I look up, I try and find a smile and when I did I looked up at him smiling, "Oh this?" I pointed, "No, I had a little run-in with a man last night. And when I started to tell him off he got mad." I did not lie to him, I just did not say it was from my dad.
"Oh, what happens?"
"Oh, nothing." I told him, "So, how old are you?" I asked trying to get his mind off my eye.
He looks at me, " I'm 18."
I nodded, 18 and looking this dam good wow.
Noah and I sat at the coffee house for 2 more hours before he asked if he can drive me home. I was going to call Dan but I forgot my phone on my bed, thanks to the prince of hell. I could not work and the bus has stopped running for the day. I had no way home.
"What time is it?" I asked Noah
He looked on his phone it was 9:30
"OH s**t!" I jump up. "Please can you take me home, I have someone coming over at 9 and I needed to get home."
He gets up and we both walk out the door and get in his car. He had a black Ferrari and when I got in his car it was so little inside. As I was sitting there I felt like I was sitting in his lap on the way home.
We got to my house in 15 mins from the coffee house. I look at the house and look down. I did not want to get out, I did not want to see him tonight. Even though he only stays for like 10 mins to make sure am ok and make sure my dad has not hit me anymore.
"Ava?" Noah asks I look over at him. "Are you ok?"
I nodded, "Yes, am just don't want to go inside. I don't want to see the one who is waiting for me." I look down and Noah puts his hand on me, "Then let's just drive around and wait until they leave." If I did that, HE be mad at me. Then he will end up finding me and who knows what he will do. I'm only 16 and this was my life not his, so what if I want to hang out with a boy, so what if I want to have s*x before am 21.
I look back up at Noah and I was about to say yes, but I hear my dad call for me at the door, I look out the window and I nod to him. I look back over at Noah, " Thank you for a good time night." I said smiling. I put my hand on the car door to open it and as am getting out Noah pulls me back and takes my face in his hands, he takes one of his fingers and runs it on the side of my face, " I like seeing your face red like that." He said as he pulls me to him and puts his lips on mine.
I did not know what to do, should I kiss him back, should I just pull away? What SHOULD I DO! Then out of nowhere I hear a voice in my head, *Kiss him back Ava.* I smile as he is kissing me and I start kissing him back. He pulls away smiling. I get out of the car after telling him good night.
I turn my body around after I watch him leave to look at my house. I walk up to the door and open the door. I walk in closing the door behind me, I see my dad again shitting in the chair, "Did he come tonight?"
My dad not looking at me, "No now get to your room. I don't want to see you."
I walk over to my room and open the door, and then I close it when I walk in, I jump on my bed face down smiling.
Then I hear a little tap on my door, I knew who it was. I did not ever have to say come in because in 3..2..1.. my door opens and closed. I feel my bed move as someone sits on it.
"What do you want?" I ask as my face still face down in my bed.
"How was your little date Ave?" I did not move, I knew he knows about it but he has never called me by my name before. I get off my bed and I go stand in front of him.
"I had fun, thank you for asking." I try and walk away but it pulls me back this time he is standing up.
Ave I told you, you can't be around any other man but me." I rolled my eyes.
"What do you care, huh?" I had it with him, if I have to live my life with him, I want to know more about him, I want to know his name, I want to know what he looks like. He is going to tell me tonight.
