SuRpIsE, UPDATEEEE

*Alexa's POV*

My foot tapped the floorboard. I was seated on the edge of the bed, but soon I would have to stand up so Will could drop me off at the house again.

My eyes longed to get mesmerised in his, every time I thought of him, a blush would form on my face.

All night, he kept on appearing in my dream, I had never crushed on someone this hard, especially not at first site.

There was a knock on the door and I was snapped out of my thoughts. After staring at the door for quite a while, I remembered that here was someone on the other side of it.

"Come in," I quickly said. Will walked in, typing on his phone. He looked up and plastered a smile on his face.

"Morning Bambina," His soothing voice said. I grinned in response and gave him a tight hug, trying to control my nerves from the thoughts from earlier.

It was like a hug of reassurance, he didn't let go of the hug till I did, and that was after a few minutes. "You good?" He asked with his eyebrows raised.

"Yup," I replied, popping the 'p.' 

"Well..." Will dragged in a sing song voice,"I will find out if there's something wrong with you once you update you chapter."

I groaned, this was not happening to me. Will chuckled before stopping as he remembered something,"Mr Gomez -The therapist- told me to inform you that he wanted you to bring any pen that was special to you. Now, as you haven't brought any pens with you, there are a few in kitchen, you can pick out any one you like."

"Cool," I said. Will took this as a sign that I was ready and led me to the kitchen, his hands on my shoulders.

On the counter was a cup on pens with them. Will layed them in front of me as he leaned on the opposite counter, typing away on the phone. 

I looked at the rage of my pens, they were simple ones, but none - except one - was a click-y pen. I reached out for that one. It was multi-coloured, red, black, blue and green.

"Done," I said, holding up the pen. Will slipped if phone into his pocket, and like the day before, we went through the road which led to the therapist's house.

We were greeted by Mr Gomez and his son outside their house. Will and the therapist shook hands to greet each other.

"Today," He started off,"I thought I'd take Alexa for some ice cream."

I wanted to say that I hated ice cream, but instead, I smiled at the therapist and clicked my pen when was held behind my back.

"Of course," Will nodded. 

"Eer, I do hope it's fine with you if my son, Louis, tags along, I don't really allow him to be alone in the house," Mr Gomez said.  A small blush of embarrassment appeared on Louis' face. I quickly looked away when I noticed I was staring at his cute, red cheeks.

Will didn't answer for a moment, clearly not wanting to leave me with a boy my age. Nevertheless, he agreed, knowing that he couldn't question the therapist.

"Awesome," Mr Gomez said clapping his hands together,"If it's alright with you, Mr Romano, I can now take them for ice cream?"

Will nodded stepping aside, his fists still clenched, with a forced grin on his face.

"This way, Alexa," The therapist said, leading me to his car, Louis trailing behind. I waved a quick goodbye to Will before sitting in the car.

The whole ride was silent, Louis and I were sat at the back, I looked anywhere except him. We past many roads, before the sky started camouflaging into water. Before I knew it, we were by the beach.

As I stepped out of the car, a light breeze passed by, making my hair fly in the air a bit.

"Come on, this way," Mr Gomez said moving his head in a direction, indicating that Louis and I had to follow.

We went down some steps, before we were on concrete, which led to soft sand with a few shells in them. Then, here was the beautiful clear sea washing onto the sand every now and then.

"This way."

My eyes trailed over to where we were walking. It was to a tiny shop which was shaped like an ice cream. There wasn't a door to enter, just a window from where people could order.

"What would the both of you like?" Mr Gomez asked.

Louis was the first to answer. "Could I please have the hazelnut with chocolate sprinkles in a cone?"

His dad nodded and placed her order. This was he first time I had heard Louis talk. His voice was enough to melt me faster than any ice cream could in front of the sun. There was a soft of accent in his voice as well.

"And what would you like, Alexa?" I was asked as Mr Gomez handed Louis his cone. I looked up at my therapist with a small smile. "I'm good, thanks, I don't really like ice cream."

Louis chocked a bit as tried not to drop his ice cream. "How can you not like ice cream, everyone likes it!" He exclaimed.

"I get that a lot," I mumbled,"I also don't like cake."

I let him process it all so if the time ever came, he wouldn't be as shocked. Mr Gomez chuckled at his son's reactions,"How about chocolate, would that me good?"

"I swear if she doesn't like chocolate.." I heard Louis say under his breath. Of course, chocolate was awesome, however I wanted to decline his offer as he was the one paying. However, I agreed as Mr Gomez was trying to be kind.

As he handed me my chocolate, he said,"Why don't you two go sit on the rock over there -oh Louis, fon't give me that face, you're old enough. It's just so the both of you don't have to stand long while I get my ice cream."

Louis, like earlier, had once again gone crimson as he walked in front of my, mumbling words. I immediately followed behind. I was still clutching my pen before, infact, I held it so hard that I was afraid it would break.

It was a huge rock, not taller than my waist. I easily got on it and sat on the edge so I got a nice view if the sea. It was a bit crowded, but not as much. I guessed it was because it wasn't the weekend and people were at their jobs.

Sighing lightly, I started to open my bar of chocolate as I watched Louis from the corner of my eye. He was staring at me, which made me mentally smile. After fiddling with the wrapper for a few seconds, I looked at the crashing waving while taking a bite out of the chocolate.

I looked over at Louis, who in a flash, started to pretend that he was looking at the people. I quickly went back to staring at the sea, hoping that he wouldn't see the smile plastered on my face.

"Alrighty then," Mr Gomez said has he sat next to Louis. I quickly went back to a normal face and turned to him.

"I hope you brought your lucky pen, Alexa?" He asked. Although it wasn't my lucky pen, I had picked it out.

"Yeah," I said, showing him my pen. Louis took out his pen as well, and started to click it.

I looked at his pen, and saw that it was exactly like the one I had picked. This made me have butterflies in my stomach for absolutely no reason.

"Great!" Mr Gomez exclaimed,"Now, why don't you two lay down and look at the clouds, let your imagination flow, forget all of your thoughts. Each time you see a cloud shape, shout it out and point at it. I'll decide if it's worth a point or not. If it is, here's a paper, you can put telly-marks on them. Loser has to go in the sea! "

I looked up at the sky, before I could even choose a cloud to look at,Louis pointed out one in particular.

"That's a car."

Dang it, he was already winning with a point. I clicked my pen as I spotted one that looked like a,"Horse!"

Mr Gomez looked to where I was pointing.

"Yup, perfect!"

I grinned as I sat up straight to mark a point. I noticed that Louis had used the blue ink, so I did as well.

As I layed back down I immediately spotted a cloud that looked like a fish.

Time passed by, and it was a score two for Louis, while I had six. I could see that he was getting really frustrated.

"That's spiderman."

I looked at the cloud he was point at. It was a rather huge and uneven one.

"Well then that's Emma Watson," I said sarcastically.

"That one's a dodo bird," He pushed.

"Oh well, then I see Cinderella."

"Grinch."

"Clown."

"Plane."

"Hogwarts."

"Cow."

Drac-" I got cut off by someone.

"Sorry to interrupt your.... Bickering. But Alexa, I'll have to take you home now," Will said.

I nodded and stood up, clicking my pen silently. Will talked to Mr Gomez for a moment before I waved goodbye to him and Louis.

"Mr Gomez says your doing good," Will started as well got in the car,"Which I'm pleased about."

I flashed Will a quick grin.

"Blake's birthday is coming up, on the 21st of August, I was planning to take you shopping for it this afternoon," He said.

I was excited to buy Blake a present, but the shopping part was stressful for me.

"You know what.. Ever since your first day at the therapist, you've been talking less and staring more, what's going on? Tell me the truth," Will demanded.

I came up with an excuse quickly,"I'm just wondering what it would be like once I finish going to the therapist."

Will eyed me suspiciously. My mind went back to Louis staring at me. I knew I wouldn't be able to sleep tonight, and if I did, I would never want to wake up.
