   ELIJAH KEPT HIS PROMISE, and within an hour he was there to pick her up. The drive was nearly silent between the two — the low hum of Jeff Buckley playing from the radio was the only thing filling the air. "Has anyone ever told you your the spit of Buckley?" Ivy spoke, her lips pulled into a sweet smile as she looked at him.

    Elijah shook his head, "I usually get bono" he laughed.

     Ivy scoffed, "someone isn't online enough— inhaler girlys are begging for a cover" she grinned, twisting the rings that laid upon her fingers.

     His eyes narrowed, "and are you one of these 'inhaler girlys' ivy?" He smirked, his eyes dancing between her and the road.

   She smiled cheekily, "oh of course."

      The two arrived at the beach fairly quickly, and ivy had began wandering down the winding path to lead to the rocky sea.    Elijah followed constantly, his hands shoved in his pockets as he watched the wind swept girl smile softly as she stepped from stone to stone.

    Elijah soon caught up to her, and the      girl wrapped her arm around his. "How was London?" He asked, breaking the silence. He looked down at the girl, watching as the wind blew against her tasselled hair.

   Ivys lips pulled into a soft smile. "It was fab'. It was great seeing anaïs and gene for a bit" she shrugged, looking up at Elijah as she bumped against him as they walked.

      Elijah nodded. "I didn't know you were close with them, to be honest." He admitted, his eyes dancing across her face.

     "I met gene first — he actually dm'ed me trying to get me to go on a date" she shook her head laughing. "I said no but we went out for drinks anyways when I was over there and we got on really well — anaïs on the other hand, I've always loved her so when I became friends with gene she kinda just appeared in my life" she explained. Ivy liked that Elijah just let her talk — growing up she was always told she was too loud, too out there, too opinionated but Elijah would sit there and actually listen to every word she said, he cared about what she had to say even if it was utter nonsense.

     He looked down at her bare arms, noticing the goosebumps that raised against her sallow skin. "I told you to bring a coat" Elijah rolled his eyes playfully, he detached himself from the girl peeling off his leather jacket.

     Ivy shook her head, "keep your coat im fine, eli." He didn't listen, he draped the black coat over her shoulders before wrapping his arm around her one again.

     "Don't tell me what to do" Elijah winked, his hand rubbing against her shoulder slowly.

     Ivy paused, glaring slightly before it softened. "You know my favourite song of yours is cheer up baby... you should play it more often" she informed the boy, her eyes drifting to the waves that crashed against the shore.

     Elijah's eyebrows rose, "cheer up, baby? Thought it would've been something else to be honest" he shrugged. "Maybe I'll take it into consideration— just for you" he winked.

     Ivy shook her head with a small laugh. "Just for me? How lucky am I?" She said as she dragged him closer to the sea. She bent down, grabbing a flat rock — throwing it out to sea watching as it skipped along the top of the sea before sinking. Elijah soon joined in, and the two stood for fuck knows how long just skimming rocks along the surface.

      Soon enough the wind became harsher and Eli found himself wrapping his arms around ivy. He looked down towards her, her eyes boring into his with a cheeky smile.

     "Head back to mine? Netflix and wine?" She asked. Elijah didn't say another word, simply smiled and nodded before taking her hand in his as they walked to the car.
