I wake to Noah, slightly shaking me. I open my eyes and sit up. Noah then sits down on the floor beside me.
“Good morning sleepyhead.”
“Good morning Noah. What time is it and where is Mara?”
“Mara is outside right now. It is also 8:30.”
“What is she doing?”
“She said that she was going to grow a flower garden out back to brighten this place up.”
“Mm. Well I wanna go for a walk. I’ll be right back if you wanna come with me.”
“Ok, sure.”
I hurry up the stairs and change into a black button up with a black cargo pants. I then put on my sneakers and grab my skateboard. I then go down the stairs and sign to Noah to follow if he wants. And as I thought, sure enough, he followed me out the door. He went into the spare room I gave him and changed back into his hoodie and jeans that he wore when I first met him.
Later he and Mara decide to go out and get food for the week. I myself choose not to go and choose its time to find Layla. I need to talk to her.
I grab my skateboard and run out of the woods. As soon as I hit the sidewalk I lay my skateboard down and ride. Jax might know where she is. On the way there I think about all that I’ll say to Layla when I find her. I want to tell her that I’m sorry she had to see that, and that I know that it’s not her fault. I know I already told her that I loved her but I want to make sure she knows how much she means to me. I want to make sure that she's ok. I want to make sure that she’s safe. And lastly I need to know if she loves me back. If she says no then that’s ok. I can’t say that it wouldn’t bother me or anything because it would but the last thing I would want between us is forced feelings. So if she says no it'll be ok. Her happiness is important too.
