Crazy Young Love, Kennedy Armstrong [best novels ever .TXT] 📗

she stops. "But I came here to tell you something, something very important", she says seriously. 

"Yeah what is it". I get a kind of worried expression on my face. She could be in some kind of trouble or something. I definitely hope not.

"Well-", she begins to talk until she's interrupted by the yelling of my name being called from my mother. 

"I'll tell you another day", she says as she gets up. 

"No no, tell me". She looks at me then looks down. I wonder whats going on with her.

"I'll tell you later. I gotta go so..". She walks out of my door and I walk behind her not saying anything else about what she was going to tell me. When she's out of the house I walk into the living room to see a random man I don't know sitting beside my mother. 

"Starlett, sweetie this is Thomas, he works with me", she says smiling at me. Thomas has brown hair and he's wearing a weird smile on his face. I stand there looking at my mother, then I look at Thomas. The first thing that comes to my mind is my father. I really don't know much about my father, all I know is what my mom told me. She says that he couldn't handle having children so he bailed. She says that when I turned two that he came and visited me, but he never visited again. I snapped myself out of my thoughts and smiled nicely at Thomas.

"Hello, my name is Starlett", I say in the nicest way possible. I see my mom smile at how good were getting along with each other. He then puts his hand out for me to shake and I gladly shake it. 

"So, I was wondering about inviting some family and the Caldwell’s over to meet Thomas", my mom says looking at me smiling. I can tell she likes Thomas. I haven't seen her with anyone so this is probably a big deal for her. 

"Yeah, that sounds good", I say smiling at my mother to show her that I'm glad that she's happy. I walk back to my room and take a shower and get dressed. When I finish I brush my hair and leave it down even though its super long. I put on eyeliner, mascara and lip gloss. I walk outside and start walking up the street to the small park. When I get there I see that theres no one here. I sit on a swing and swing slowly. I begin singing while thinking about random things.

"Your a good singer". I hear someone say behind me. I feel their hands on the chains of the swing. I turn around to see Ryder closely behind me.

"Thanks", I say turning back around. I feel him begin to slightly push me. 

"So, your mom called my mom not to long ago and invited us over to meet some of your family and someone named Thomas, he says still lightly pushing me in the swing. Wow, my mom called everyone earlier than I thought she would.

"Yeah, she works with Thomas and she wants the family and your mom and you to meet him. I'm guessing she likes him". I feel the swing stop and I turn around and look at Ryder. 

"Wanna come with me somewhere", he says smirking at me. I tilt my head a little and squint my eyes.

"Where", I ask still with the look on my face. I see him roll his eyes.

"Just c'mon, you'll see when we get there", he says turning around and walking. I sit there for a minute, then I quickly get up and run over to him. When we get a little down the street I see a motorcycle.

"Please tell me that isn't your motorcycle, and that we won't be getting on it", I say hoping that he repeats the words that just came out of my mouth.

"That IS my motorcycle and we WILL be riding on it". He just said the complete opposite of what I told him to say. Also, I've never riden on a motorcycle but I'm pretty sure I don't want to ride one. They look super dangerous and I'm a scary person.

"Wait, I can't get on that thing", I say making him halt in his position and turn to look at me with a amused expression on his face.

"And why might that be Kitten", he says walking towards me. The closer he gets, the more I feel tingles inside of my body.

"B-Because I'm scared", I say honestly. I think I've watched to many movies. Movies always get to my head.

"Well you'll be with me so theres no need to be scared. I promise you'll be safe with me, I won't let anything bad happen to you". When he said that it made me feel like he cares about me. Does he care about me? 

He grabs my hand and pulls me closer to him and the motorcycle. "Get on", he says holding the motorcycle. When I stand there clueless he puts one of his hands on each side of my waists and puts me on. Wow he's strong. He then gets on and sits in between my legs in front of me. 

"Put your hands around my waist", he says with his deep voice. I slowly put my hands on his waist already feeling how rock solid his abs were. He then grabbed my hands and pulled them all the way around his waist. He kicked off the kick stand and started to drive. That made me hold on even tighter. 

After a while of driving I got used to it. I kinda liked the way everything looks, it's as if everything is sped up and everything swirls right past you. When he stops the motorcycle I look to see where we are. It's a huge building that has no windows and only a door. 

"What is this", I ask looking at him as I lifted on leg to get off of the motorcycle. He didn't answer me, he just smirked and walked into the building as I follwed behind him. When we got in it was dark and the walls weren't walls, they were big aquiriums with millions of different kinds of fish everywhere.

"Wow". Thats the first thing that came out of my mouth. I never knew that had a place like this here in this small town. 

"This place is...wow. How did you know about this place", I ask him as we walk down the isolated halls looking at all the fish. 

"Well, I know who owns the place and their closing down. I thought maybe you'd like it". No wonder why theres no one here except me and Ryder, because their closmg down. After walking for a while me and Ryder sit on a bench in the middle of the hall. 

"I love this place, I wish they weren't closing down so I could come everyday", I say still surprised by how great this place looks. It's like a place you could come to to calm down.

"Yeah, me to Kitten", he says also looking around. I turn more towards him with my eyebrows scrunched together.

"W-Why do you call me that", I ask out of curiosity. I've always wondered why he calls me Kitten.

"Because, Kittens are adorable, sweet, and they have big pretty eyes, like you", he says looking at me. Is it just me or is he being extra sweet today. I look at him wondering what is up with him. Were not talking, were just looking at each other in silence. I feel his hand go around my back as he moves closer to me. I look down at his lips. Everything that was in my mind before has just vanished just from looking at him, why does he have this effect on me? He leans closer to my face, his lips and inch away from mine. My eyes instantly shut when his lips touch mine. I feel a strong shock go all through my body. I then feel his tongue on my bottom lip, I grant him access. His tongue rubs against mine and my tongue does the same. I wrap my arms around his neck as he pulls me closer to his body. He then quickly pulls away from me, I didn't want him to stop. 

"Maybe I should take you home. I don't want your mom being worried", he says turning and walking away. Did he regret kissing me just then. I feel like my heart is about to explode out of my chest. I get up from the bench and follow behind Ryder. I wish I could read his mind because that kiss did something to me and I'h hoping it did something to him to.

Chapter 5

When me and Ryder exited the big aquarium place we got onto his motorcycle and he drove until we were in front of my house. I hopped off the back of his motorcycle. 

"So, I'll see you at the dinner", I say smiling a little at him. He looks at me and looks away.

"Yeah, sure", he says before driving away without a goodbye. I start getting a feeling that he regrets the kiss me and him shared. I used to be the one who hated his guts and now I'm the one who is beginning to like him. All of the bad things he did when we were young have just vanished as if none of it happened. I turn and walk into the house.

"Starlett!", I hear my mom yell my name. I walk to her bedroom to see her applying makeup and she's wearing a nice loose black dress. Her brown hair is curled and she's wearing black heels. She looks great. "Everyone is coming to dinner tonight, but me and Thomas are going away for about three hours and then we'll be back just in time for the dinner", she says putting earrings in her ears as Thomas walks out of her bathroom.

"Why are you going to be gone so long?", I ask curiously. Three hours is a very long time.

"Where were going is and hour away. I'm going to meet his family", she says to me smiling. Wow, this relationship of theirs is more serious than I thought. She's meeting his family, then he's meeting mine, next thing you know their going to be married. I just nod my head and walk into my room. When I hear the front door shut I know that it's my mom and Thomas leaving the house. I lay on my bed in silence. The house is so silent its scary. I then call Easton, Liz and Jaime over because of my boredom. I hate being bored because being bored is the most boring thing ever. When they arrive we all talk in the living room.

"So, I heard that your mom has a new man. Where is he, I want to see him", Jaime says smiling at me. Everybody probably knows about Thomas because of this small town, word travels fast around here.

"Yeah, I guess. She left to go meet his family."

"Wow they must be serious", Easton says putting his arm around my shoulders. 

"Yeah I guess they are", I say. I felt Easton get closer to my ear.

"Can I talk to you for a minute", he
