CHAPTER 11
2060 Words
"What the hell..." My head hurts!
I looked around and saw I was inside my room. I looked at the wall clock and saw that it was almost noon!
I sat down and looked around again as if there was something happening. I took a quick bath because the clothes I was wearing last night were the clothes I'm still wearing now!
I quickly went down to have breakfast and Apollo's not down here. Probably still inside his room, but I'll eat now, I'm starving.
As I was eating, there were still no signs of the presence of Apollo Moon Gray. I can't take it anymore. I don't know why I feel this, but there's something in me that I really want to see him.
After I ate, I quickly went upstairs and knocked on his room.
No one answered...
I went down and looked in the garage and I felt relieved when I saw his car there. I also checked each car and yes, it is here. It's all here. So... where is he?!
I went back and as soon as I reached his door, I opened it slowly. No signs of Apollo. Is he invisible now?! I slowly closed the door and slowly roamed around his room.
I went to his study table and saw his notes and books that had sticky notes in them. Goodness, I thought he was not serious about his studies! I thought he was all party and... girls. Beside it was a cabinet and above it had picture frames.
I saw his dad and his mom... As I was staring longer, her mom looked like me. The next picture I saw is him in elementary school. Wow, he's cute. I smiled a bit and picked up that frame.
We both went to the same school in elem. How come I didn't know him?
I placed the picture frame back and I went closer and closer 'til I reached his mirror that was beside the cabinet. I looked at myself and not was I was expecting, I freaking saw him!
I turned around quickly and here he is! Apollo!!!
"And what are you doing inside my room, miss?"
I didn't know either, but I just smiled and went closer to him. His brows furrowed. Probably confused with my actions. I see... he was in the shower. His hair was a bit damped and he smelled so fresh and manly.
Wait... Why the hell am I sniffing him?
I looked at him again and saw that he's also confused with me.
"Lyanne." He called me.
"Hm?" I answered normally.
"I asked what are you doing here?"
"I..." don't know. "I thought you were out..."
"Uh-huh..." His arms are now crossed and he smirked a little. "and?" He probed.
I'll just tell him. No big deal. It was nothing. I was just finding him, so nothing's really wrong about that.
"I was looking for y-you." Damn, why am I nervous?
"Why are you looking for me?"
"Nothing!" I smiled widely and quickly ran out of his room.
Okayyyy, I can't take the tension. Why is my heart beating so fast... I tried to remember what happened last night.
"Let's go to a bar," I suggested.
"Lyanne." He warned.
"C'mon! Don't be a killjoy!"
Oh f**k. I got drunk, huh? I don't remember much.
As I was stressing out, I remembered something... KIDDING I can't remember anything.
"Lyanne." Apollo's voice muffled at the door.
"Don't come in!" I shouted.
"Why?"
WHY? Uhm.. C'mon Lyanne think... "I'm naked!"
He didn't answer. But after a minute he did.
"Hurry up, we're going somewhere."
Because of that, I quickly changed my clothes to casual, then went out. I didn't see him, so I guess he's downstairs already.
"Where are we going?" I asked.
He was drinking a glass of water. After he drank, he looked at me. "Candy." He answered and I nodded.
We went to Candy's house and were not really surprised by Derek.
"On spring break, what are your plans?" I asked Derek.
"I don't know yet. Babe?" He asked Candy.
"Oh, sorry, I can't be with you for spring break... I'm always with Lyanne. We'll go to... maybe Japan? What do you think?"
"Too far..." I pouted.
"We'll plan it! We need to go somewhere."
"Can we come?" Derek smiled widely and looked at Apollo, who was looking so bored right now.
"No." Candy answered and Derek made a sad face which made us laugh.
I still feel a little bit sleepy.
"Why are you so sleepy, mi love?" Candy asked.
"She got drunk last night." Apollo answered before I could answer.
"I wanna go to... Europe for spring break." I suggested to Candy.
"PARIS!" She exclaimed.
"Spring break is 2 weeks from now, so if you are both going out of the country, better decide to have your tickets booked," Derek suggested.
I agree. Getting rushed tickets is hard.
Candy and I decided to just talk about it through chat. Apollo and I went back home and he's still silent as hell. Did I do something last night?
I immediately went to my room and did not wait for him to go up stairs with me.
What the f**k is this tension am I feeling?
"Lyanne," Apollo called.
"Why?" I answered, but did not open the door.
"Just open the door."
Why am I even nervous? I got up from my bed and opened the door. I saw him holding a glass of milk and some bag of chips.
"Wanna watch?" He asked. "I'm bored." He added.
"Watch? Watch what? Where?"
"TV room." He pointed at the door which was located at the end of this hallway.
I nodded and we both went to the TV room. As we entered, my eyes widened because it was a big room. It's like a freaking cinema. He turned on the AC and sat on one of the reclinable chairs. Looks comfy though.
I sat on one of the reclinable chairs, besides him too.
I really find it cute when he loves drinking milk. He gave me a soda and cheetos.
"What do you want to watch?" I asked.
"You decide. I watch everything." He answered and handed me the remote.
"Fifty shades." I chuckled and he snorted. "What?!" I laughed. "You said you watch everything."
"I did not say anything, then f*****g play it."
I laughed and still clicked the play button.
"Why fifty shades darker? Shouldn't we go for grey first?" He suddenly asked.
"I liked the story in the second one more than the first." I bit my lower lip and he just nodded.
As we watch the movie, we're just quiet. The S scenes are really hunting me 'cause I don't know... I feel awkward.
"He's hot." I bit my lower lip.
He faced me while both of his lips were apart from shock.
"What?" I chuckled. "I kinda like Christian Grey."
"Your surname will be changed to Gray sooner, so just imagine he's your husband." He helped me with my fantasies.
"My mom and I will not change our surnames." I smiled a bit. "Unless I get married, of course. But, my mom will not change her surname."
"Did my father know about that decision?"
"Yes, I liked him for that. For respecting the decision that we don't want to erase what my father has left for us."
He just nodded and we continued watching silently again. The movie finished and we planned to continue it to freed. So, we just watched again.
"He trusts his wife so much." I was pertaining to Christian Grey.
"Because he loves her," he answered.
"I wish for love like that." I pouted.
"You're always rushing things about that s**t look what happened to you and Karl."
"HEY!" I punched his arm lightly and he just laughed.
"You're bad." I pouted.
"I am not." He smirked.
I looked at him and immediately realized that he was just being a good brother and was trying to protect me back then. But, because of rumors about him, I barely knew him, yet I judged him. He may look so cold-hearted, but he is such a caring man. A caring and loving step-brother.
"I'm happy to have you as my brother." I bit my lower lip.
"STEP BROTHER." He corrected and I just laughed.
"Kinda feels lonely when you're an only child." I stated.
"A little only. When you came? The house got noisy." He shook his head. "Please watch the movie."
I redirected my attention back to the TV and finished the movie.
"What next?" He asked.
"What? We just gonna watch the whole day?" I chuckled.
"Have better ideas to do when bored?" I can sense his laziness.
"Your house is big enough to do a lot of things. You have a gaming room, the pool, this TV room.." I stopped when I got an idea. "Let's... swim!" I excitedly suggested.
I looked at him and saw his bored face. "Swim?" Sound like he didn't like that idea.
"C'mon!!!" I jumped off the couch and pulled him and it was easy to pull him because of his lazy bones.
We both got dressed up in our swimwear and we went into the pool.
"Apollo," I called his attention.
"Wanna race again?" I smirked.
Looks like he got fired up from that challenge. He didn't even win at least 1 since last time.
"Game on, miss." He smirked back and we both went to the end of the pool.
I took swimming lessons when I was a kid, so, I really know how to move inside the pool.
"Game... one..." I started.
"Two..." He continued.
"THREE." We both stated it and swam right away.
I did my best and as fast as I could and only 1 second away he's going to win, but to my luck, I won.
"Damn!" I laughed. "Still a bummer." I pointed at his face.
"Again." He challenged.
For three rounds, I still won the challenge, which, of course, he finds unfair, especially when I told him that I took swimming lessons and he just learned from his own.
We both got tired from racing at each end of the pool and here I am just floating on the water and who knows where Apollo is. I looked around to see that he's sitting on the stairs of the pool. Half of his body is soaked in water and he's drinking a soda.
He noticed that I was looking at him and he immediately raised his brow.
I swam to him and he moved a bit to give me a space to sit on.
"Last night..." I started a convo.
"I'm sorry..." I pouted.
"What are you sorry for, Ly?" He answered.
"I can't remember anything but... I'm sorry for being a pain in the ass." I chuckled.
"Oh, you are a pain in the ass." He agreed and I pouted.
"Do you remember... anything, Apollo?"
He looked at me intently. "I did not drink."
SHIT. So, obviously, he remembers every single detail.
"I don't remember-"
"Then let it be that way, I think it would be f*****g better if you don't remember a single thing about last night."
I gasped. "IS IT THAT BAD?!" I exclaimed and he got shocked at how loud my voice is.
"I don't... know?" He doesn't know and he looks uncomfortable now.
"What did I do at the bar?" I asked.
He looked at me. "Obviously you got drunk and I'm like a f*****g security guard who's guarding your little flirty ass."
I gasped even more. "Did I make out with someone and you punched them?!"
His lips parted a bit from shock. Probably remembering something from last night or maybe he was shocked that my guess was correct.
"How-"
I cut him off. "TELL ME WHO I MADE OUT WITH AND WHY AM I DRINKING SO MUCH BUT... DID YOU PUNCH HIM? IF SO, WHY?!"
"How can I punch my f*****g self..." He whispered, but then he cursed. "Let's not... talk about this."
I... what did he say?
"Apollo..." I called him.
"Let's wash up. It's getting late. We need to be ready for dinner." He stood up from the pool but I called him but he didn't answer.
No... It can't be.
I MADE OUT WITH HIM?!
