"So you want to get to know me?". He smirked.

"Why not". I shrugged taking a sip of my coffee. It's not as if I was going anywhere.

"Why'd you move to Texas?". Taking off his jacket he sat back in the chair getting comfortable.

"I don't really know. My gran got up one morning and decided to put the house on the market. She didn't give me a reason".

"And you never asked?".

"I didn't".

"You're eighteen, you could have stayed in Florida". What was he getting at?

"You're right I could have but I didn't. I'd move anywhere she wanted to go". That was the truth. I didn't like the idea at first and maybe I still don't but I would always go where she was. "And what-..."

"No". I stopped him mid sentence. "It's my turn. Have you always lived here?".

"Born and breed sweetheart".

"Would you ever leave?". I asked.

"No".

"Where's your mom?". He asked.

"She died". Breaking eye contact with him I stared at the cup in my hand. I didn't mind taking about my mom it's just I didn't have much to say. She died before I could get to know her. "I'm so sorry Leah".
