I'm not going back to Cam's place to pick my stuffs. They can as well stay there to make it easier for me when we'll be having our girls time again.
"Oh Lodzin and Bruce are already at your place, Cassandra just called to inform me, just so you know, we are here all alone except for the workers and maids who are busy at their work places." Bally says as he drops his phone next to mine on the table smiling cheekily.
I had turned mine on and immediately I was greeted with notifications mostly from Cam and Tif. Beside replying their messages and telling them that we'll meet at school tomorrow for explanations, I had also discovered that Tif got wasted and she ended up staying at the party house with Dubel. Cam on the other side left with Jelton. This is just so good, we have a lot to talk about tomorrow.
I roll my eyes dramatically as I stand to spread the bed. "So? It's good because I'm about to join them right after I'm done making this bed, move your ass to the chair now." I command. He just sits there looking at me like I have a spatula popping out of my face. I push him off of the bed and he falls down on his butt a groan escaping his lips.
"Ouch! Woman do you want to turn me into a cripple at this age? Oh f**k it hurts." He scrunches his face pathetically as he crawls to the chair next to him.
"Well that's what you get when your brain takes long to register." I snort changing the pillow cases into the clean ones from the drawers. I can feel his eyes on me from his desk the whole time. "How often do you change your beddings?" I ask paying attention to the pillows.
"Don't worry Mom, they're always clean." He replies in jest giving me a wry smile when I tilt my head to face him.
Mom? I roll my eyes as I avert them back to the sheets I'm tucking on the bed now. "And what's that supposed to mean?" I ask trying hard not to sound curious or inquisitive.
"Anyway Cassandra has them always changed when I'm not around, so they are always clean."
"I figured so too." I sneer sprinting towards the door after I finish making the bed. It's almost noon now and I feel like I've overstayed at this place.
"And where are you going?" Bally asks worry evidently lacing his voice.
"I should get going, it's almost noon now and I have a lot of work to do back at home." I open the door slightly and take a peek on the hallway then I swing it shut as I turn around to face him.
"No you're not going, there is still time." He says getting up and sprints towards the door where I'm standing. I give ffffhim a glare but it seems like it's nothing to him. "Why are you in a hurry? For Christ's sake today is Sunday, what are you going to do?"
"And what exactly do you want me to do here for the remaining time." Now he's standing next to me his height towering over my 5'3 terrible one.
"I need your company princess." He blurts immediately bringing his gaze down to mine.
"Sum yesterday's whole night and today's whole morning, isn't that enough company lover boy?" I take his hand and wraps my small fingers around it biting back a sigh. His body tenses against my touch and he brings his eyes to my fingers wrapped around his hand lightly.
He draws me closer to him with his free hand and lowers his head a little bit lower to me."I can't have it enough with you." I don't mind in the slightest that Bally is serious from his look and his rich deep voice.
"Bally stop it already, I'm leaving now." I snaps immediately disentangling myself from his grasp and then I walk towards the bed without another word as I feel his steps following me.
"Please stay a little longer, I'll drop you myself at your place later." I Know the look he must be wearing, I keep quiet averting my eyes to the night stand.
"Please princess." He pleads and this time I move my eyes to his and true to my assumptions he's pulling one of his puppy looks, his lips are curled up giving him an incredible pout.
I fight a smile that is starting to grow on my face but I fail rendering me to throw my hands in the air in surrender. "Fine!" I blurt the word with pressure.
"Yaaaaay !" He exclaims happily his voice high pitched. He then pulls me with him onto the mattress making us both bounce back because the mattress itself is made of Springsteen. "Yes! yes!" He wraps his arms around my waist and throws one leg over my two legs caging me.
"Bally!" I scratch his arm which is wrapped around my waist making him drop it immediately.
"What?" He talks on the nape of my neck his voice coming out muffled.
"So this is why you wanted me to stay, am leaving get off of me now!" I demand my voice rising sharply.
"Feisty is back wow, I've waited to see this side of yours since yesterday" He snorts his cold nose pushing into the crook of my neck.
"Stop it already!" I nudge my left arm back but this time he turns me around to face him. A big scowl on his face.
"What now? Why are you becoming grumpy all of a sudden? Are you by any chance bipolar and I don't know?" He smirks running his forefinger along my jaw.
"You bore me a lot." I say as I shove the finger into my mouth taking a good bite of it.
"Oh s**t Kellane! What's wrong with you?" He asks his eyes popping out in surprise.
"Well I wanted to do it, now we're good, you were embracing me like it's nothing and so I've taken a good bite of your finger like it's nothing too." I say throwing my arms around his neck letting out a shriek as he starts giggling me.
"Oh girl, you're something else I swear." He mutters rolling his eyes as he let's go of me.
"I like you." I blurts before stopping myself. I fights back a grin that starts to show on my face.
"Wh...whaat ke...Kel.. kellane...do you---" The look on his face is priceless as he stutters fumbling with his words and then stops staring at me.
I want to burst into a one bubbled laughter so bad but I also want to pull this cruel trick successfully.
"What now Bally? Cat got your tongue?" I raise a brow biting my lower lip so hard to stop myself from laughing.
"Are you serious?" He finally speaks up running a hand over his face. He's looking at me in disbelief, yeah he should.
"Heeey I wish you can have a look of your face right now, you're blushing like a freaking robster!" I let out a loud laughter making him huff in annoyance.
"That's not fair at all." He says standing up and I still keeps laughing as I watch him stride towards the balcony outside his bedroom.
It's clear he's annoyed with me. I feel like I've known Bally for more than an year now, but I don't know how I managed to pull such a crap. And why is he even mad ? Does it mean... Oh s**t he has his dream girl even. I push the thoughts starting to flood my mind at the back of my head and follows him outside.
As I step into the warm noon air outside, I spot him leaning on his stomach clutching on a chain hanging on the balcony wall at the corner.
I take small steps towards him, his back is on me. The boy asked me to stay and now he's mad because I just pulled some shitty crap. We already settled for being friends, I don't understand why he's acting this way.
"Bally." My voice comes out more of a whisper. "Why are you mad at me now?" He keeps his gaze down on the moving cars. I move closer and wrap my hands on his waist as I rest my head on his back, pity my pathetic height. He doesn't move even an inch but I can feel the muscles under the thin t-shirt he wore minutes ago tensing. "Bally aren't we friends, why are you like this?" I'm feeling irritated as time passes by.
"You mean you're asking?" He snorts turning around to face me. "Who plays such tricks? You felt good humiliating me?" He gives a disgusted sigh scuffing his foot on the marble floor.
"And why should you feel humiliated when you know very well that Tleigh kellane is not the girl you want? For crying out loud Bally, will you spare me, I can't bring myself to like a guy at this age, infact you have a girl to chase at, focus!" I can feel bile rising up my throat. He's annoying me now. What's his exact problem?
"Huh? focus kellane? Are you that dumb?" He huffs and after those words leaves his mouth, I feel like he has just stabbed me on my stomach. He's now calling me dumb, the dumbass itself can't be serious. My anger is getting out of control. "How can I focus when you're the gi---"
"Stop it you jerkass!" I cut him off heaving.
"I should have known better. You're still the same Bally who crushed my water bottle without feeling any remorse, who pulled shitty crap during the lesson to sell me off to the teacher so that I'll get punished, who hid my locker keys just so that I'll miss my lesson and God knows what you're planning to do next, you know what? Am leaving bye!" I stomps into his room and I pick my clutch and phone from the table hurriedly. I then sprint towards the door.
As I move my hand to the doorjamb a hand beats me to it.
"I know you're mad but please let me take you home, I'll explain everything when you'll give me a chance." He softly says from my back and I turn bringing my eyes to his. His eyes says otherwise, pain? I don't know.
"Fine it's not like I want to argue again. Home it is." I say taking my eyes away from his.
He picks his car keys and in a few minutes we're on the parking lot. I whip open the passenger door clambering in the car with force. After settling in his driver seat, he buckles his seatbelt and pulls out of the driveway. I give him our address and he puts it into navigation on his phone. The drive back home is filled with uncomfortable silent. My eyes are focused on the passing trees and houses outside the window all the way. In around thirty minutes we pulls to the side of our driveway just close to our gate. I don't want him to get into our compound.
"Thank you." I mutter as I take a look of myself on the windowscreen of the car. I'm wearing his t-shirt, oh well. His sandals too, just wow. "I'll give these back as soon as I can."
"It's okay don't worry." he says running a hand in his messy hair. Oh f**k I did that to him when... dumb s**t!
"Thanks again you may leave now." I shrug not wanting to sound rude.
"Princess try softening up just a little bit, bye." With that, he takes a U-turn and zooms off leaving me there standing without another word. Boy gat something with leaving people stranded.
I move quietly through the back door praying Angel guardian to be with me. True he was with me, I make it successfully to my bedroom without getting an ambush or something on my way. I strip and change immediately into my pajamas. It's two in the afternoon. I'll rather take this nap than anything else...
Bally consumes my every next thought as I try catching some sleep.
Bally...
