Chapter 2- A kiss

Ivy's pov

"You will get out of here Ivy, don’t worry about it, you’ve now got a job at the town hall, you’ll make enough money to move.” I said to myself in the mirror. “I think I am officially insane, I’m talking to myself in the mirror and I’m still doing it now. This really can’t be a good sign.” I stepped away from the mirror and walked into the lounge/kitchen it was a mess. So I worked my way through the house cleaning everything, Luke

is such a slob he needs a maid not a roommate, the funny thing is I’m paying him so that I can live here, where’s the sense in that?

I’m still sleeping on the couch if he even thinks I’m going anywhere near him he’s got another thing coming.

Luke’s pov

Well she’s certainly lasted longer than I thought she would. I know she wants to move out as soon as she can afford and she’s working her hardest over at the city hall, even though she actually isn’t getting anywhere with that as of yet, she hasn’t had a single promotion.

Me on the other hand working as a criminal has proven to be a very

good career choice, having

now had two promotions. I think Ivy’s getting jealous. She’s kinda cute though but she really won’t give me the time of day.

“Hi,” I said as I walking up the path towards the house after work, Ivy was out discarding the old newspapers for some reason.

“Hi,” She grumbled in response.

“Surely it’s not that bad.”

“Oh you would say that, your fine living in a mess.” She replied agitated.

I shrugged her comment off.

“Can’t we at least be friends?” I asked moving closer to her, I could smell the flowery fragrance of her perfume.

She looked at me like she was really looking at me for the first time but then something in her face changed. “But you don’t want to be friends.”

I was shocked. “And why don’t I?”

“You want to be more than friends.” She stated.

“And you don’t?” I asked moving closer.

Ivy’s pov

He moved closer to me, he smelt of mint and ocean wind, refreshing, he was gorgeous I really couldn’t deny that. I didn’t want to be friends did I? And surely I didn’t want to be more than friends but now I wasn’t so sure. But he’s evil! You can’t like someone like that. Say no! I shouted to myself.

“No,” I managed to say but it was so quiet I didn’t know whether he heard it or not.

He lifted his hand to my cheek and I surprised myself I didn’t move out of the way I let him! And you know what, I liked it.

Then he kissed me! He kissed me! What was happening? I was so confused, I didn’t want this did I? But I liked it!
