Chapter 24 - To The Bus Stop.
"Hi." He smiled standing at her doorstep.
"H-Hi," she stuttered, he was standing on her doorstep, saying that he wanted to walk with her to the bus stop. āā
"Ready?"
"Yes." Closing the door after taking her bag pack she walked out. Walking together to the bus stop they waited together.
Honestly, she thought. I kinda expected him to bring a car to pick me up. She had a little pout about it too. feeling Disappointed.
"Won't you ask me?" She looked at him, "That why didn't I bring a car?" He smiled a little while asking her.
"Why didn't you?" She shyly asked him, knowing she was being a little greedy.
"Because bus just feels more casual, you know. The last time we were together in a car, you were pretty nervous so I thought that a bus ride would better." He explained. "Also, we should use public transport, since we-our parents pay taxes!"
That's thoughtful. She giggled at the last line.

He had been thinking about her and he observed well too. She couldn't even help but think about how mean she was to judge him. Climbing on a bus she sat on the inside, her favourite seat.
"Soooo..." She drawled out.
"Sooo..." He repeated it.
"Stop!"
"Stop!"
"Oh come on."
"Oh come on!"
"Will you stop copying me?" She giggled now.
"Will you stop copying me?" He chuckled as well.
She mildly hit his arm.
"You know," he pulled her close. "Maybe copying can be our okay."
"Oh my god!" She laughed out loud, "you're so cheesy!"
He laughed at her laughter, admiring how cute it was, how her face scrunched up when she laughed. Goddess, he thanked her for his mate.
Classes were the same but when she reached the same bench where they met for the first time she couldn't help but feel something.
She sat down in the cafeteria and waited for him to get her and himself food. At least he had some gentlemen habits. He slides her tray next to her and kept him in front of him.
Cheeseburger and a bacon pizza slice, yummy!
She dug in without any further ado, enjoying every bit of food.
He loved watching her, feeding himself as he watched her eat.
'Son,' he heard, 'your mother wants to meet her.'
He cringed and he could feel his wolf groan as well. They had scared her enough and now to have their mother wolf come in as well would be a blast.
'papa, she might overwhelm her with a mothers love, a Lycan's one at that.'
'True child but she won't listen, so go ahead and plan a meeting."
He hummed forgetting the fact that he was talking through his mind. Adeline rose a brow at that. Was he dreaming something? She was sure that she wasn't that boring company.
"So how was your day?" She tried to make a convo.
Xavier chuckled, she had forgotten that she was with him till the lunch break. "It was nice. I enjoyed your company."
Adeline visibly perked up at that, he liked her company. "Thank you"
Xavier nodded and let her finish her food. Adele looked around to find the girl that tormented her that day but she couldn't just find her. Maybe she was sick or something.
"Adeline," she looked at him, "what are you going to wear for the basketball match coming up?"
She hadn't thought about that. Maybe, she could go with Ashlynn for last-minute shopping since the match was on Wednesday and it was Monday already.
"I think I'll go with Ashlynn to buy a dress or a top."
"You could go with my mother too, you know. Ashlynn likes her opinion on everything and she might tag her along as well. So expect her there." He advised her of what was going to happen.
She nodded, it would be good to have some good fashion advice. Plus, James's mom would often tag along with them to make sure they bought good and not so expensive stuff to learn the value of money.
He walked her home as well but didn't come in and walked away when she closed the door. Her father was working late tonight and she was going to cook for both of them even if he had dinner in the office, she could eat it tomorrow morning for breakfast.
Taking out the chicken, she put it in the microwave when the bell rang. Taking off her apron, she answered only to see Cassandra; Xavier's mother.
"Hello, baby. How are you?" She asked as she hugged Adeline.
"I'm fine Mrs Rivera. Thank you."
"Glad to hear that little one, now your father and my husband are working late tonight and Ashlynn is out with my eldest son, so we've got ourselves a night. Do you want to have dinner?" She asked grinning.
"Umm..." Hesitant about what to say she thought of politely declining her. "Iā"
"Great! So lock the house and come here!" She kissed her cheek and walked back to her house.
I didn't even say anything, she thought as she looked at her figure.
Sighing, she locked the windows and doors, double-checking everything, placed the dinner inside the Fridge and walked to the next house. Xavier stood on the porch and held his hand out to her.
"Come, it's dinner time." He smiled.
