~Ashley~
I went back to the living room and saw it empty.
Maybe Audrey and Lily left.
I went to the kitchen taking a soda drink from the refrigerator heading to the living room. I sat on the couch turning on the television, i kept changing channels. G0sh! T.V is boring these days.
“Where’s Adrian?”.
I turned to see J.R standing behind the couch.
“Still in his room, i guess”.
He nodded. “Right, tell him i had to go”.
“Sure thing”.
With that, J.R left.
I took my phone out of my pocket checking the time.
What the hell!
6:50 pm.
Time’s really .. fast.
After a while, Adrian came down with Sophie and Samantha along with Xander.
“Sis, i’ll be gone for a while”. Adrian said taking his car-keys.
“Yeah. Sure. Don’t care”. I replied.
He chuckled leaving with Sophie and Samantha.
Xander plooped down on the couch sitting close to me.
Startled i turn to him. “Are you not gonna go?”.
“Do you want me to go?”. He asked with his oceanic blue eyes twinkling.
“I don’t know”. I replied lowly.
“I’m staying the night”.
I turn to him sharply. “Wait!! What?”. I yelled standing up.
He became confused glancing at me. “You don’t want me here?”.
“Its not that .. I just .. Um”. I said nervously.
“Is it about the kss?”.
I widened my eyes. “No .. No”.
“Then what?”. He asked coming closer.
“Don’t come closer, just stay there”. I said.
“Why?”. He asked and stepped closer.
I walked away fron him and went straight to the kitchen. I grabbed a glass and poured some water gulping it down my throat. I sighed softly and rubbed my forehead.
G0sh! Why am i like this?
I mean i don’t like Xander.
But the kss.
~Axel~
I grunted as i rolled Kathryn off me.
The btch is still asleep.
I stood up putting on boxers then my shorts.
I didn’t bother wearing a shirt as i went out in the big hallway leading down the huge stairs.
I got down and was surprised to see them still here.
With Miguel.
“Woah. What are you guys still doing here?”.
I asked as they all turned to me.
“V-man”. Miguel said shaking me.
He calls me V-man for a reason.
I smirked. “How was the hot chick?”.
“Not better than yours, apparently”.
I stares at him confused. “What’s that supposed to mean?”.
“I love you so much, Axel. I hope our relationship lasts”. AndrĂ© cooed playfully.
“I love you too Kathryn. You are the best”. Ryan added.
I laughed understanding what they meant.
“You like her?”. Miguel asked.
I frowned. “Yuck, No, its for the money”.
Miguel’s face lightened up. “Speaking of money, Ashley’s bid rised up”.
I shrugged. “So?”.
“Many guys in school are desperate to get her. Cash prize is 200,000 dollars”.
Ryan gasped. “All that money just to get one girl”.
“I’ll win the bet”. I said sitting down.
AndrĂ© chuckled. “You didn’t win the other one”.
“The whole school thinks i slept with Ashley dumping her in the process”.
“But you didn’t fck Ashley”. Ryan said.
“I made them believe i did”.
~Xander~
Ashley came out of the kitchen minutes later.
“Ugh. I gotta go”. She said nervously running upstairs.
Soon, Adrian came back and we went to his room to play Zombie video games.
And i was winning.
“The heck are you doing, Adrian, you used to be a lot better than that!”. I teased him.
“Shut up, you will see what i’m capable of!”. He replied.
A knock sounded on the bedroom door.
The door slowly opened.
Mum.
Well actually, Adrian’s mum.
I’m used to calling her Mum anyways.
I nudged Adrian to stop playing but he ignored me focusing on the game.
“Welcome, Mum”. I greeted politely.
She smiled in return. “Xander how nice to see you again, you are like the son i never had”.
Adrian groaned. “Seriously Mom”.
She frowned. “I came in here and i expected you, Gregory__”.
Adrian grunted. “Don’t call me that please”. He said cutting her off
I snickered. “Gregory”.
Adrian turned to me dropping his game pad. “Watch it”.
I raised my hands in a surrending manner still laughing.
“Baby, Gregory is a nice name”. Mum said mockingly.
“Mum!!”. Adrian wailed.
“The delivery service is delayed. Do you want to pick up the pizza or do you prefer to make sandwiches”.
Adrian and I looked at each other slowly shaking our heads.
We’ve had a bad history with things done in the kitchen.
“We prefer Pizza”. Adrian said. “And Xander will pick them up because i’m d@mn tired”.
I rolled my eyes inwardly.
Mum flashed a smile. “Great, Ashley wants to tag along”.
