Vera's Accidental Love

Day Date

VERA

We were out the school and in his car right now. I'm not even sure how we made it out the lot. Did this school not care? like at all?

"I've never done this before" I admit

"I can tell" He replies

"So you're making me skip school to..to what?" I ask him

"I'm not making you do anything..." He corrects

"You can get out of this car anytime you want" He added.

"Could've just asked me out on a date." I slightly sneer.

"But then I'd have to wait even longer"

"I left my bike back at school y'know" I inform him.

"Did you lock it?" Corey asked

"Yup"

"Then it'll be fine" He assured

Corey had drifted onto the highway. Guess we aren't staying local. I was burning up then noticed he had the heat on. It really wasn't cold enough for it to be so high. I took my crew neck off and placed it on my lap leaving me in a grey cami.

"If you wanted the heat down you could've asked" I tells me

"Can you put the heat down?" I ask and watch him set it to the second to lowest volume. Now my arms are cold. I swiftly slide the crew neck back on.

"So where are we going?" I look at him

"Don't know" He confess

"You left the school and don't have a plan?" I freak out

"Not everything needs a plan" He replies.

"Maybe but this...skipping school definitely does!" I tell him.

He doesn't say anything and continues to drive. If I were to say he didn't look good right here that'd be a complete lie. I've thought a lot about how far we could've gotten if my mom hadn't seen. Probably not that far after all since it was a car.

"So when did you start painting?" I broke the silence.

"At around seven I guess" He shrugs

"I've played with the brush a few times myself" I intrigued

"Really? You're gonna have to show them to me some time" He responds

"Yeah I'll have to see if they're still in my elementary school box from the attic" I toy causing him to smile.

"I like photography though but I haven't done much outside of the newspaper and few family portraits which dont take much" I explain

"What camera do you use?" He questions

"Canon EOS 4000 got it as a birthday gift from my dad" I answer

"Whens your birthday?"

"November 12th" I reply

"Late birthday?"

"I can't really explain but because of the month placements I was born a year before most of the kids in our grade but not really a year because November is only two months from January so technically I'm a ye-"

"I understand" He chuckles.
