Danger And Love novel Chapter 9

"Sorry bro, I brought my friends." The boy who looked a little bit younger than me laughed lightly then turned to Rhiannon and his mouth gaped. "Holy..." her cheeks turned bright red and I felt a grin make its way to my face. "I'm Aiden. I'm fifteen...this is Xavier and Ryland. They're sixteen and seventeen."

"Yes. Another person my age. Up top homie." I held my hand out to Ryland. He laughed but highfived me back.

"At least I'm not the only one who hangs out with losers." He said and I nodded with a shrug.

"Nope. Then again I am a loser too so.." I stated and he flashed a smile. God he's actually really cute. He has a bit of a baby face. He's got jet black hair and bright blue eyes. He wore a grey beanie and a leather jacket with chains on it.

"So...on a scale from one to ten how badly do you guys actually want to go to this race? I say we ditch and just go to Rose's diner." Aiden stated and of course Rhiannon agreed. We all shrugged really not caring and Antonio sighed.

"Rose's it is." He turned the car around and a few minutes later we were at a small diner. "I have to run an errand then I'll be back in like two hours." He sighed as we all climbed out.

"Thank you." I smiled at Antonio. He nodded then drove off.

"So, what school do you guys go to?" Ryland asked curiously as we walked side by side behind everyone.

"John Adams high." I stated, "I just started there Friday and Rhiannon's the only friend I've made."

"Oh damn, you're our schools enemy school." He laughed, "We all go to Riverside. Except Tony obviously." He added as we walked into the basically deserted diner.

"Are you guys sure this place is open?" Rhiannon asked cautiously as she slid into the booth besides Aiden and Xavier.

"Very sure. We come here every night. She's just really old, can't keep the place as shining as it used to be." Xavier explained and we all nodded. As if on cue, an elderly woman walked over to our table.

"Hey boys!"

"Hi Ms. Rose." They chorused together politely.

"I see you brought some friends." She flashed a smile, "I'm Rose."

"I'm Noah," I introduced myself with a smile. She's so cute and old.

"I'm Rhiannon."

"Well it's a pleasure to meet y'all. Are you from the south, dear?" She asked me curiously.

"Yes ma'am, born and raised in Texas." I said and the guys all looked impressed.

"Really now? Me too! Which part?" She cocked an eyebrow.

"Brownsville."

"Well I'll be damned." She chuckled, "I grew up there as well! You look like this woman I went to high school with. Her name was Magda."

My face lit up, "Magda Carson?"
