Go out with me?

The musky smell was still in the sheets even after washing them, she kinda wanted to sniff it like a freak. She sighed and walked out of her room to have breakfast. She made eggs with bacon for her father and pulled out lucky charms for herself. It was unusual for her to crave something sweet in the morning. She nevertheless poured milk and made her way to the dining table.

"Good morning, papa." She smiled which immediately lifted up Jason's mood. He loved it when she smiled at him. It meant that his child is happy.

"Morning kiddo, what are you up to today?" He asked after shoving a bite of eggs into his mouth.

"It's Wednesday, so studying." She sighed blissfully.

Jason roared back a laugh at her expression. "Okay, I have no problem in my child being a nerd but you will take part in at least one sport, okay?"

"Yes, papa." She sighed, knowing it was going to come soon.

"Want me to drop you?" He asked, picking up his plate and walking into the kitchen. "I've got some work to catch on, might be late these days."

"Nope. I charged my iPod so I'll walk or take the bus and it's fine." She got up as well kissed his cheek in goodbye and walked out of the front door with her bag.

With the music blasting in her ears, she walked on the side pavement taking in everything on the way. Beautiful and peaceful houses could be seen, the men leaving were accompanied by the women who bid them farewell. It seemed unreal to her, people being so happy and in love. She had started to believe that it didn't happen anymore. A hand tapped on her shoulder and unaware of her surroundings, Adele let out a scream and elbowed the person in the ribsHi.

"Aa- fuck" he roared.

Xavier! She gasped.

"Oh my goodness, why would you do that?!" She yelled at him.

"Oh, you mean grabbing your shoulder to get your attention for which I have been calling you out for the past ten minutes!" He growled out in anger.

She blushed and sheepishly muttered an apology. She took step back and a nudged him into the direction of the school which she was walking in. He playfully glared at her and followed her. Both of them were walking and Adeline fiddled with her earphones putting one in the opposite ear of the direction Xavier was in. She blushed deep when Xavier all of a sudden grabbed her hand instead and walked again casually.

She ignored the hotness she felt in her neck and cheeks and walked ahead. They both were enjoying the music; unknown to her Xavier was enjoying the music due to his excellent hearing. When it was Ed Sheeran's photograph playing, he decided to ask her something

"Hey Adele," he stopped walking and waited for her to reply.

"Yeah,"

"Would you go out with me this Friday, since you're coming to my home this Saturday?" He politely asked her, just like his parents had lectured him about this morning.

"Uh.." she didn't know what to do or say. She was new in town and she was not even be known by ten people who could report her if she even went missing. What to do?
