The Blood And The Lovers

Part 13: Addison POV

(Addison's POV:)

Oliver, Nova, and another girl sit at our table as the bell rings for lunch. As soon as I see the girl I can feel my face heating up, she was STUNNING... Now I know why everybody wanted an emo girl. Her hair was beautiful. She smiles at me and I feel my stomach flutter like never before. I smile back. 

"This is Yvette" Oliver says to me. I tear my eyes away from him and to Oliver. I couldn't help but look back at Yvette. "I'm Addison, nice to meet you Yvette" I speak up slightly, trying to hide the shake in my voice. I think she heard it because she chuckled. Oh my GOD. I never thought I was lesbian but it's showing now. 

Nova moves beside Vic to show him a meme, so now Yvette and I are sitting beside each other. Oliver starts scrolling on his phone while eating his food. Yvette and I look at one another. "So..." I start "How'd you meet Nova?" 

She smiles "Met her in detention, Collin tried to attack her so I stepped in" Oh my, grunge and a badass? JACKPOT. I laugh softly. "You seem awesome..." I reply, speaking softly. Yvette stays silent for a moment, a mixture of good emotions on her face all in a small smile. She gives a slight nod after a moment "Thank you, I could say the same for you" 

I giggle, taking a bite of my food as I process this. Yvette, a beautiful and kind girl, EXACTLY my type, talking to me? Out of everyone at this table, me? "Are you alright..?" She speaks up after a moment with an amused tone. I perk up and look at her "Huh?" 

"Are you alright? Your face is red." She says, holding back a laugh. My eyes widen slightly as I glance away to hide my face "Heh... yup! All good!" I mutter. Shit, shit, shit, shit, shit... I hear her start to laugh deviously but then speak in a very teasing tone "Did I do something?~" I cross my arms and look the other direction. "No..." I start to mumble. I don't seem to notice Vic and Nova snapping a pic of my red face while Yvette smirks at me. 

"Fruity ass" Nova mutters. My eyes dart over to her "NOVA!" I exclaim, face now a scarlet red. Yvette puts her hand on my back, rubbing her hand along my back softly. I tense up but melt at her touch. I go silent but I don't pull away. Our whole table snickers and I look away "Hmph"

"Anyways" Nova starts "I got a random thought last night." I look back at her, loving how Yvette is still rubbing my back. "How did Collin get that gun...?" She says, voice trailing off. "I don't think we  should talk about this here, what if someone hears?" I reply worriedly. "When you two go to Thomas's hospital room, we can call and talk about it. I just want Yvette to also know what's going on." 

I smile at Yvette and see her confused look. "I'm sorry did you say Collin, the one from detention, Had. A. Gun..?" I laugh softly at her reaction "Yeah, long story. I can explain when they go to  the Hospital room to check on our friend Thomas... Speaking of which, would you like to hang out while the others go to check on Thomas? I have a hard time going in hospitals, so I'm staying back"

Yvette smiles and nods "I'd love that" I could tell she wanted to say more but was holding back. "I know a Cafe nearby we could go to, I think you'd love it." I say, nervous but hopeful. I couldn't help but notice a light pink hue on her face just at the thought. Was this feeling mutual? Nova and Oliver start to pack up their things, getting ready to visit Thomas in the hospital.

Vic had nothing but his lunch tray so he just went and put it away. I shoves his phone in his pocket and waves at me as he and the others walk out of the lunch room. I then turn to Yvette "Ready to go?" I ask softy. She nods and stands up, taking her hand off my back. I missed the feeling already. As we walk down the street, I get out my phone. 

"Hey Yvette?" I ask softly. She perks up slightly and looks at me "Hmm?" 

"Can I get your number?" 

Yvette wasn't the best at hiding she was excited, letting out a small giggle as she got out her phone. "Of course! But I do have to ask..." She says as she unlocks her phone "Are you... single?" I smile, face going red again against my will. "Uh... I am... are you?" She nods and passes me her phone so I can put her number in mine. I quickly punch in the numbers and hand her the phone back. 

We walk into the cafe and I nearly hit my head on the guitar shaped sign, big neon letters saying 'HARD ROCK CAFE' on it in a hot pink glow. I sit at a table with her and look at the drink menu. I steal small glances at her, admiring her slightly. She. Was. Beautiful.

The waiter comes by and I smile at him. "Can I get an Expresso Martini please?" He nods and writes down my drink quickly before turning to Yvette. Yvette looks at me with a small smile. "What do you think I should get?" I push down the flutter in my stomach and glance at the menu. "You'd suit the Purple haze" I chuckle. 

"I'll get that then, thank you." She says to the waiter who quickly writes it down and smiles at the two of us "Alrighty, we'll get this out to you right away. Enjoy your date." He leaves before  either of us can respond. I turn red and Yvette simply laughs. "I guess this is a date then." Yvette says in an amused tone while looking at me. 

"O-oh my... uhm..." I go silent, looking down at the table in order to hide my red face. Yvette laughs again.
