A New Beginning

Going for dinner

As I took a shower quickly and changed as fast as I could to eat with Andrew and Maggie.

I took the keys from the countertop and put on my house alarm as I locked up the house.

I texted Andrew telling him that I was on my way.

By the time he answered I was already in the front step of his house.

Knocking three times against the door I waited. The door swung open and behind it Maggie was there.

"Hi honey come in." She said embracing me with a hug.

'So how was your day at the agency?' She asked.

'It was good I just had to deal with something as fast as I could to be here with you guys.' I said as we walked into the kitchen.

Andrew was in front of me facing his back towards me. He turned.

'Oh hey.' He said giving me a tight hug. His hand was placed ontop of my wound making me hiss in pain.

He looked at my shoulder observant.

'Are you okay?' He asked looking at me in the eyes.

'Yeah its just a small wound, no biggie.' I said shrugging him off or at least I tried to.

'Lemme see.' He said reaching for my shoulder.

'Fine but its a scratch so don't worry.' I said before pulling up my shirt for him to see the bandaged cut.

Maggie entered the room her eyes wide.

'What happened to your shoulder?' She asked I groaned internally because she would freak out as well.

'Its just a small cut from today's work, nothing to worry about.'

'Alright if you say so.' Maggie said walking out of the kitchen.

Andrew moved his fingers toward the tape to remove but stopped once he had seen my tattoos.

'I didn't know you had tattoos.' He said admiring them. He then reached for them and lightly traced the image with his fingertips making me involuntarily shivering.

'The things on my body are mostly private.' I said making him smirk. Gosh that smirk. I thought to myself.

Andrew then peeled off the bandage from my shoulder. His eyes went wide.

'Woah there. That's going to scar up.' He said making me chuckle.

He placed the bandage back and kissed the top of the bandage.

'We have to kiss it so you could feel better.' He said smirking.

Please do, I thought to myself.

Once he stood up I pulled down my shirt but before my shirt touched the top of my jeans Andrew stopped my hand from letting go of my shirt.

He stood in front of me and lifted my shirt a bit. He then put his hands on my piercing.

Before i came here I decided I wanted hip piercings. They have healed throughout the weeks.

His hands caressed my piercings making my breath hitch. My breathing was uncontrollable. Andrews hands came off my piercings and walked out of the kitchen leaving me alone.

I stood over the counter top trying to calm over my hormones. Damn that boy is going to be the death of me.

As I walked out of the kitchen the tables were set. As we sat down we started to eat.

'How was your day Maggie?' I asked taking a bite out of my food.

'It was good just some kid trying to ditch. But its ok I got him settled.' She spoke with an evil smirk. Ohhh I had to hear this.

'What was his consequence?' I asked chuckling.

'He's doing all of Ma's chores.' Andrew said laughing.

'Indeed he is.' Maggie spoke.

I laughed and together we all started to laugh.

"Andrew you're going back to your house tomorrow since your parents are coming back tomorrow in the morning."

'Alright I'll pack my things once Im done eating.' Andrew said taking another bite.

After we all finished eating. I took everyone's plate and washed them myself.

'Where's Andrew?'

'Oh he's in his room. Go straight through that hallway and turn left.' She said pointing at the hallway with a smile.

I followed Maggie's instructions and came into contact with Andrews room. I knocked on the door quietly.

'Come in.'

I entered the room and Andrew turned around.

'Oh hey' he said with a smile.

'Hi. So this is your room.' I said smiling at him.

'Yeah its not much but its nice.'

I looked around there was a tv, bed, and a table in his room. I walked over to his table and saw a sketchbook.

'Can I?' I asked pointing to the sketchbook.

'Yeah go for it. I'm warning you they suck.' He said as he continued to fold his clothes and place them in a small suitcase.

I opened the sketchbook slowly amazed at his beautiful drawings.

They were mostly landscapes, people laughing, lips kissing. I stopped admiring how the lips touched perfectly as if it belonged to one another.

I flipped more to be amazed even more. There was a drawing of his and his parents together, laughing.

It was beautiful.

'What's wrong?' He said looking at me. My head raisee quickly to meet his gaze.

'These are beautiful.' I said holding the sketchbook toward him.

'No they are decent.' He said shrugging and grabbing the sketchbook.

'Are you going to continue drawing?' I asked.

'Yeah I am. I found a new inspiration.' He said with a sparkle in his eyes.

'Will you show me if you ever draw what inspires you?' I asked hopeful thst he would say yes.

'Yeah I'll show you but once I finish it.' He said zipping up his suitcase and placing it next to the table I stood by.

'Alright well I think I should get going its getting late.' I said looking at my phone screen.

'Okay be careful.' He said as I walked out of his room.

'Will do.' And with that I closed the door behind me. I said goodbye to Maggie and drove back to my house.

I layed on my bed replaying everything that has happened today and boy was today full of surprises.
