"Bellaaaaaaa, wake up" Brandon yelled in my ears "What the hell Brandon?" I screamed at him and pushed him off my bed
"Markus and Aunt Carrie left to work, Tiana went shopping and Lucy is sleeping and I'm boooooooreddd" he whined. "I don't know what to do, should I kill you with a gun or throw you out of the window?" I say "You won't do either because you loooove me" he says and runs out of the room
Great now I can't sleep again. I went to the bathroom washed my face, brushed my teeth and combed my hair in a ponytail without using a brush, every girl has her lazy moments
I unlock my phone and clear my throat as I try not to zoom in the picture
"What are you looking at?" Brandon asked and I chuckle nervously
"N-nothing"
A few girls in school got hold of a very uh-nice picture of Chris and it had been sent to a couple of girls including me, I won’t lie and say I didn’t stare at the picture because I did, but just for like two seconds – or hours, won’t make any difference
The point is any girls that has a picture of a guy coming out of pool looking all wet and se-smelly, yup smelly with his right hand running through his hair would want to stare like come on
We want answers, who is he smelly, right?
But, he won’t find out
He’s not even that good looking
"Do me breakfast, pleeeeeeeeeeese" Brandon sings when I enter the kitchen. In few minutes I was done with some chocolate pancakes and a cup of hot chocolate but before I could start eating the doorbell rang
"Who do you think it is?" Brandon asked raising an eye brow "Let's find out" I say and hop of the stool, opening the front door
"Hey is Brandon up?" Cameron asked "Ya, and good morning to you too" I say "Oh sorry, good morning" he says embarrassed
"Morning" a voice said I look up and my gaze met Chris's "Hey" I say smiling with wide eyes “What are y-“
“What?! Picture? I don’t have any pictures, pft like why would I” I blur out without thinking “You disgust me”
“Uh-what?” Chris asked confused and I try taking a few deep breaths “Sorry, joke” I stated lamely and he raises and eye brow “Okay?”
I don’t think I’m suspicious
"uh - sup man!" Brandon greeted Cameron while giving me side looks "Sup, you wanna go to the park?" Cameron asked
"And do what?" Brandon asked "I may be a man but ice cream is the best" Cameron said "Sure, Bella you wanna come?" Brandon asked "No, I'm good" I say "No your coming" Chris said
"No I am no - " I was cut by Chris "You do know, you have no choice, right?" Christopher asked raising an eyebrow "Chris, I'm serious" I said "So am I, go get dressed besides we have to hurry so we won't be late for school" he says and pushes me to the stairs.
Ya as if he cares if he's late to school
In exactly five minutes I was don't
"Done" I yelled jumping of the stairs and taking my bag "So fast?" Chris asked "How long do you expect me to take?" I ask "I don't know, half an hour" he says smirking "Well I took five minutes, so you're bad at guessing" with this his smirk drops and I'm the one smirking
"Okay, seriously both of you come on" Brandon and Cameron yell at the same time "Okay" with that we jump in Chris's car or I think it's his
"You have a car, I thought you only have a motorcycle" I said "Yep, but this car is my dad's and I 'borrowed' it" he quoted the word borrow in the air
"And by borrowed it you mean you took it without permission" I say smiling "Maybe, maybe not" he smiles back and I laugh.
Before we reached the park I sent Lucy and Tiana a text telling them:
Brandon, Cameron and I got a ride with Chris and we'll be going to the park and then come to school, and we won't be late
**********
"I want a vanilla ice cream cone, huge one" Cameron ordered "Same here" Brandon said "Bella, what flavor?" Chris asked me "Um, chocolate cookies" I said "Okay, two huge vanilla cone ice cream, one huge chocolate cookie cone and one double chocolate cone" Chris ordered finally
The man was done with the ice creams and gave us the cones "Okay we have a half an hour and then we have to leave so we won't be late for school" Chris said "Okay, we'll be back" Brandon said and left with Cameron
"Who eats ice cream in the morning?" I ask Chris "Aren't we eating?" he asks me "Yaaaaa" I answer confused "So ya there are people who eat ice cream in the morning, but if you don't consider us as people I'm not sure what you're answer would be" he said and I roll my eyes, giving him a friendly push
"Hey is that you brother fighting?" Chris asked pointing at my right, when I turned I looked but I found nothing "Chris wha.......... Hey, that's mine" I said when I noticed that he tricked me to take a bite from my ice cream, he laughed and I rubbed my ice cream on his face AND took a bite from his
"Hey" he protested "That's not fair, you decorated my face with your ice cream and you ate from my ice-cream" he said "You should thank me, the decoration I made is hiding how ugly you are" I said laughing
"Hey, you got a little ice cream over here" he said pointing to my cheek before I could do anything, he smashed his ice cream on my nose "Chris" I yelled laughing and he started laughing
"Fine, fine I'll remove it" he said and took two steps towards me until we were so close and the next thing I knew was that he was licking my face
Literally
"What the hell?" I yelled, he started laughing and I blushed
"Guy's we're back" Cameron yelled and Chris looked at his watch "s**t we're going to be late" he said
And we started running to the car so we don't get another detention for being late
********************
RING............RING..................RIIIIING
"Lunch, here we come" I yell and Leo started laughing "Give me a piggy back ride" I asked "No" he answers back and I give him the puppy eyes "Pleese, pleeeese, pleeeeeeeeese" I yelled in his ears "Okay okay, hope on" he says and I jump on his back
"Come one faster" I say "Hold on tight" he yelled and I tighten my grip on him and he started running to the cafeteria to our table, thank god not many people noticed our position since they were busy with their conversation
"Hey guys" I greet Lucy, Tiana, Seth, Adam and Chris "Enjoying the piggy back ride" Lucy asked smiling and I didn't jump off Leo's back "Yes we are, aren't you horsy?" I ask Leo laughing
"Bella, you aren't heavy as I thought you were but that doesn't mean I can't throw you from my back" Leo said and I fake gasped "And what is that suppose to mean?" I ask "Nothing" he says "Okay then, let me down" I say and jump off his back
"Hey are you guys gonna sit with us every day?" I ask Seth, Adam and Chris, "I mean people started to notice" I continued "So you aren't happy to see us?" Adam asked
"No not like that" I say and try to explain to them that I am not saying it in an offending way "Oh, of course she didn't mean it like that, she just want to enjoy time with her boyfriend" Chris said, not breaking eye contact with me
And that is when it hit me
"You think that Leo is my boyfriend?" I ask Chris but he doesn't answer. Leo and I look at each other and start laughing "You..... Think..... Leo's ......my..... Boyfriend?" I ask between the laugh
When I look at Chris he looked confused so Leo and I stopped laughing "He's like my brother" I say "And she's like my sister" Leo says "Whatever" Chris says and looks away
I know something is bugging him and I'm going to find out. We all sat down and all of them started talking and laughing, as if they were old friends, but some people around us are still surprised to find that the school bad boys are sitting here and laughing.
I went and sat beside Chris "Hey" I say and he nods his head in replay "Are you okay?" I ask and pull his arm so he can face me "I'm fine" he says avoiding my eyes
I sigh "Fine don't tell me, but just remember any time you want to talk I'm always here okay?" I tell him and he nods his head.
My phone starts to ring and everyone on the table stops talking "Hey, hey" I answer "Bella, you didn't come to take the gun" Festo said in the other line "I'll come today, I promise at three" And with that, I hang up the phone
"Who are you meeting at three?" Lana asks "Ummm ........... No one anyway I have to go" I inform them and leave
The rest of the day went well; we did the project in the library and thought that we could do it the six of us today instead of pairs.
After school, I met up with Festo and gave him the old gun and he gave me the new one.
The new gun was pretty good; we talked about its features and talked about Collins aka my stupid dad, by the end of the conversation before I leave Festo told me to take care
And that is all I want to
To take care
