Chapter 10

1131 Words
I woke up early, way earlier than normal, im confused why i cant do this on school days. It was 6am and the birds were just starting to chirp and the sun was very slowly still rising so it wasn't completely light out yet. I took a look out the window and the most handsome thing I had ever seen before, jogging back to the house, no shirt on and sweaty I licked my lips as i watched him running closer and he glances up at my window..... caught red handed, again. I sigh and sit down on the bed, I'm really not good at being sneaky. I decide to get dressed for the day and text amanda, my wild curly hair was unruly and there wasn't a thing I can do about it so I just chose to leave it and do my makeup. I couldn't stop thinking about last night and the kiss that me a Jessie shared and wondering if he liked it as much as I did. He clearly had much more experience than I did. I decided to text amanda **Good morning ? ** **amanda- wow you're up early, or did you and lover boy stay awake all night?** she says with a couple winking emojis. **ughh. hurry up and get here please. i don't even want to come out because I'm embarrassed. Nothing happened except for me attacking his face like a starving leech last night and then inviting him to come kiss me again after i rushed out of his room in embarassment, now I never want him to see me again** **Amanda- LOL I'm pulling in now** I look back out the window to see her car pulling down the road but she still had a while before she was at the gate and then here. **KNOCK, KNOCK** "coming" I responded. I opened the door to see Jessie standing there, still without a shirt, still sweaty, and smiling. "Good morning little mate, let's gets some breakfast" he says. But I'm caught in a trance staring at his abs and tattoos and I'm getting hot again. Jessie takes a step closer and he reaches his hand out for me to take ahold of it and i finially snap out of it. We get on the elevator and go back down to the first floor, when we arrive there is 4 huge dining room tables that stretch from one side to the other and then a massive kitchen. I wondered how I didn't notice all of this last night. I hear the door begin to open and figured it was amanda, but no, in walks 3 middle aged women with aprons on and Wade is following them. "Hey Lacey. doing okay today?" Wade says "Uhm hey wade, and yes as good as it can be I suppose" I respond. "good good, but listen I'm really sorry about what happened yesterday. If there's anything I can help with let me know please" he says sincerly At this point I know my face is in a puzzled expression, when did we become friends??? Amanda finally comes in and I look at her, I knew she was gonna hug me and I wanted her to but I also didn't, because I knew my deepest emotions would surface when she did. She came running anyways and I wrapped her up in the same hug she was giving me. We both teared up a little but it seems we were prepared. She brushes my hair out of my face and asks me how I am today. I just smile at her. She rubs my back and then proceeds to look around at who all is here. "Whats up i***t? she says to Wade while smacking him in the back of the head and walking around the side of the kitchen counter to a seat. "Hello Jessie aka loverboy" she says again. "if you weren't such a pain in my ass me and you would probably get along pretty well" wade says to lacey I glance over at the interactions going on and I look at Jessie. He's smiling and looking back and forth between Wade and amanda arguing. His gaze then falls on me and my knees get weak. I decide to move closer to him so I can talk to the rest of the group as well and he places his hand in mine. While the other 2 are still arguing I glance at him. "Happy Birthday by the way" I say and give him a peck on the cheek. He lights up like a Christmas tree. "you just made it the best one yet. that's for sure" he says. I turn to notice Wade and amanda stairing at us and I become increasingly uncomfortable, "soooo, uhm anyways, why do yall act like you all know each other pretty well, I know amanda is acting like she hates you but that's her method of flirting, Wade do you live here too cause this house is like definitely big enough for it, I literally cannot wait for this conversation to happen cause my nerves are so on edge right now and I feel like yall are all hiding something from me." I finish my ramble, Jessie is looking at me smiling. "oooh lacey, I just love you" says amanda with slight sarcasm in her tone as she hops off her bar stool. "You..... you really think she might actually like me?" Wade says holding his face and batting his eyelashes like a little school girl. "Fate plays funny tricks like that" Amanda says and her and Wade give each other a funny expression, Jessie glances at them and his expression hardens but he doesn't say anything. "Let's get this going, we can go up to my office. When amelia gets here, i can just buzz her up, " says Jessie. "Sounds good to me, I feel like this is going to get quite interesting. I hope you have a big office loverboy" Amanda says. "Why does the size of the office matter?" I question. "Because I don't wanna feel like im cramped into a clown car with these 2 sasquatches while loverboy is trying to talk to you" Amanda tries to save herself from her previous statement but I can tell she's lying. I guess I'm about to find out regardless. "Sasquatches? you couldn't have came up with anything better? I didn't take you as the type of woman to body shame" Wade jokingly pouts and amanda laughs at him. We head back up to the 4th floor where the bedrooms and the office is located. We all get sat down and joke around for a few minutes. I'm just wondering who Amelia is and what all this is about.
