Chapter Five: Doubt to Trust

After we finished eating, Leo and I took a pretty long walk that none of us really felt was long. We basically spoke about everything; Leo told me more about his parents, him and moving here with his grandmother. He also spoke about his interests and what he's passionate about.

Right now, we were on our way back home. He insisted he had to drive me which I was against, but it made me feel that he's being a gentleman, so I accepted it.

The ride was pretty cool. He played his favourite songs in the car which turned out to be pretty nice.

"It's right there on the right" I pointed through the window at my house then Leo parked his car in front of it.

He breathed out, stopping the car and smiled "That was a nice day."

"It was" I smiled back

"Well, I'd love to do it again one day. What do you think?" He asked

"I don't mind" I nodded slightly

We just sat there looking at each other for God knows how long until his eyes drifted behind me and turned from sweet to a weird emotion that I couldn't understand; it's like a transformation.

I decided to follow his eyes and looked behind me to see what he was looking at.

Standing there with his hands wrapped together against his chest was Xander.

I opened the door and stepped out of the car with Leo following me shortly. I walked to Xander smiling, "Hey Xan, are you okay?"

He smiled back slightly, "I'm good," he said, "Who's that?" He asked moving his head pointing at Leo

"This is Leo," I said as he walked closer "He's Mrs. Larson- the librarian's grandson"

"Nice to meet you, you were at the bar that other night right?" Xander extended his hand to Leo and he took it, both were tensed

"You too and yeah I was." Leo smiled then looked at me

"Let's get inside" Xander smiled

"Sure. Just give me a minute" I told him and stood in front of Leo "Thank you so much for today. It was really fun"

"You're very welcome" He smiled brightly

I didn't think of what I was doing until I found my arms wrapped around Leo's neck in a tight hug and kissed his cheek softly. "Thank you" I whispered

I then walked in the direction of the front door with Xander's footsteps following mine.

"Who is that guy?" Xander asked

"I told you he's Mrs. Larson's grandson" I answered putting my bag down and sitting on the couch looking at Xander.

"Not what I meant. What I meant was who is he to you?" He asked sitting in front of me.

"We just went out, Xander." I held his hand, "I know you're acting like that because you're worried about me, but I'm fine" I smiled

He sighed heavily and smiled back "Fine. Just take care."

I nodded my head and smiled "What are you doing here anyway?"

"I wanted us to go out for a walk or a cruise or something"

"Oh. We could if you want to..." I suggested

"You look tired" he smiled softly "I'll let you sleep today and we can do it later; Tomorrow or something"

"Okay then" I smiled and kissed his cheek as he stood up to leave, then walked upstairs to sleep

"Chanel" A guy called

"Um... who are you?" I asked looking around the weird room

"You know me very well" he smiled and held my hands pulling me closer

I looked at him in confusion and frowned "I'm sorry... I don't"

He sighed deeply and tilted his head "I don't like how you are, Chanel. This is not you... You should start remembering"

"How?" I asked him, and he responded to me by shrugging.

"You're the only person who knows how, Chanel." His face suddenly turned into a different expression and he tightened his grip on my wrist "Doubt to trust, Channy"

I opened my eyes and gasped in search of some air panting fast while removing the sweat from over my forehead. I slowly rested back down on the bed.
'What in the world was that?' I thought to myself.
