Secret Vanilla lotion and start getting dressed. As I’m about to put on some lip gloss I get a text, I
go grab my phone off my bed and see who texted me.
Thomas: Send me your address.
Me: ok it is, 1341 Carbora rd. Brook VA 24553. It might take you the wrong way and if it
does just make sure u can see a bridge and by the bridge there is a road going up to your
left and two other roads to your right. Take the road that leads to the house with the
white gate surrounding it.
Thomas: Ok, see you in a minute.
I put my lip gloss on and told my mom I’m waiting outside for her. As soon as I step foot outside, I
see a car I walk to my gates, and It’s Thomas and some other dude in the car. I got up to the car
and waved, Thomas got out and opened my door. I get in and before he closes the door, I say
thank you. I expect him to get back in the front seat but instead he sits in the back seat with me.
Thomas introduces me to the older guy in the car, who now I know is his brother. He drives up to
a nice house and we both get out and his brother drives away. Thomas takes me to the house we
go in, “Is this your house,” I ask? “Yeah.,” he says. “Wow It’s so big and beautiful I say.” “Please it’s
nothing compared to your house. Just driving down that driveway felt like I was driving down some
rich person's house. Not to mention once you get there, everything looks like royalty.” “Well, I don’t
think so your house totally beats mine.” He laughs and takes me to this huge living room. We sit
on one of the couches, “What do you want to do today?,” he asks me. “I don’t know what to say.”
“Wanna watch a movie?” “Sure.,” I say, He puts on a movie and hits pause, “Do you want popcorn
and anything to drink?” “No thank you I say.” He looks at me like I’m crazy and takes my hand
and takes me to the kitchen. “Butter or no butter?” No butter I say. We just stare at each other
for a few minutes, before I ask to break the silence, “where are your parents?” I ask. In Las Vegas
he is still staring at me. Oh, I say with a kind of embarrassed look on my face, realizing how weird
that question sounds. I think you need to lay down, he says, you look super pale. I laugh and say
I’m fine. I’m always really pale looking after I take a shower. You are sure, you're almost as white
as me. I laugh so hard until my stomach starts to hurt. When I finally get control of myself, I say,
I’m positive. He pulls out his phone and opens his snapchat camera and hands it to me. I look at
myself and say I’m fine, I’m paler than usual but it’s nothing iron and the sun can’t fix. He looks at
me and says, "I think you should lay down." Before I could say I’m fine he’s taking me up the steps.
He opens a door to what I’m guessing is his room and takes me to his bed and tells me to lay
down. “I’m fine, I say.” Just lay down, I want to make sure you are ok. I lay down so he wouldn’t
start begging me, he sat down beside me. He takes my hand, and we just stay like that for a long
time. He finally lays down just like I am, He takes a piece of hair that fell in my face and tucks it
behind my ear. I really like your hair like this. Thanks, I say, trying not to blush. How do you feel?
I’m Ok, like I said I just need some sun or iron or both. Can I ask you a question? Yes, of course.
