March fifth Goland
Her father demanded for her to stay away from you. Claiming you were rotten, and not of christ like a good man should be. Despite this she couldn't help but feel a pull towards you, especially when you were just as interested in her. The temptation her father always spoke about in his preaches... is this what he meant?"Stay away from that boy March fifth. He ain't nothing but trouble." Her father's words echoed in her mind each night she thought about him. About what he said to her the day before or the sly little looks he gave her from different sides of the street. They lived on the same block right across from each other, they go to the same school, how could she possibly ignore him?
Even from the beginning he always had her attention. Whether it's in the back of the class where he always seemed to fall asleep or fixing up his bike shirtless on his front lawn. The first time she'd seen that her nose began to bleed and her father cussed him out, embarrassing her even further. Somehow though he wasn't appalled by her.
Sure he teased her a lot but it was light hearted.. at least she thought so. Hoped so. She would crawl under her bed and die if he was seriously making fun of her for her name, the dresses her father makes her wear, barely being allowed out of the house unless it's for school or to go sit on the old swing set in the backyard.
Sometimes when she talked with him she realized how caged she felt in her own home, often comparing it with how free the boy was. Their relationship escalated fast, nothing serious or romantic! Just better.. friends. He wasn't as bad as her father made him out to be. He wasn't forcing her to the kind of things he does, never pushing her out of comfort zone or anything like that.
