There he was, Walking down the street

with his signature white t-shirt dark jeans and messy hair as fuck hair, Layla sometimes wondered why he never smoothed it down, Instead he didn't comb it at all, He just ran his hand over it and that made his hair flare out around his head (Think of Rick's hair from Rick and Morty...Yeah)


"Yo Yo" he yelled out coming up the driveway

"Hey Cas" she said rolling her eyes, Many people thought that they were dating...And she didn't know why, Can't a guy and a girl be friends without one of them being gay?...They certainly could

"You wanna go to the park after the movies?" he asked as he shoved his hands in his pockets

"Yeah sure" she said walking in front of him,

They often hung out at the park just talking and acting like their crazy selves.

"So what did you do yesterday?" he asked walking beside her,

"not much I guess, My mom hired a babysitter for me though" she said in a sarcastic voice, She wanted to tell him what happened but she didn't think she could, Many people frowned upon that particular thing, Though she wanted Matthew, It was wrong and she knew that.


"A babysitter...Seriously?" he bursted out laughing

"It's not even funny" she defended; Playfully hitting him


"Okay Okay...I have some news"he said composing himself


"What's up?" she asked looking up at him, He was only 5,8 but still taller than her...As almost everyone she knew was.

"I...Met a girl" he said looking down to see her for a reaction, She completely stopped him from walking any further


"What! Who?" she asked excitedly as she bounced on her feet

"Calm down Lay...She's just a girl that moved here with her mom and stepdad a couple houses down from me" he explained as he sighed

"Okay, What's her name?" she asked as they continued walking

"Tiana...She's pretty cool" he said looking straight ahead, Layla felt even worse now, Lucas told her about a girl he liked, How was she supposed tell him about Matthew?


"I'm glad you told me Cas..." she said lowering her voice as she spoke


"You good?" he asked looking at her concerningly
"...Yeah, I'm good" she smiled as she nodded.


[Later]

They talked and laughed for hours at the park, On their way back they stopped for ice cream, Because it was getting dark and Lucas said eating ice cream at night gave you superpowers...Obviously she knew it didn't, She just wanted ice cream.
