"I'm not a child you know that right"

Chapter 19: “I’m not a child you know that right”

Work was really crazy today. We had just announced a 25% off on cookies at the cafe and let me tell you the place got packed really fast. Thank the lord that I was finished. If only I could get paid to watch tv and eat I would be a billionaire. As soon as I got home I ran straight to the bathroom to take a shower. After I took my usual long relaxing shower I took a look in my closet wondering what I’m going to wear. I was still wrapped in my towel when my door opened. I turn to see him standing there looking at me. “You need to know how to knock a door” I said sternly. “Sorry I just need to ask you something” he says shutting the door behind him. “Um excuse me sir but I need to put some clothes on” I roll my eyes. The room goes silent. I turn to see him looking me up and down in a way I never seen him do. “You like what you see” I mimic him, causing him to laugh. He then says something under his breath that I couldn’t quite catch. “What did you say?” I turn to Brad who is now sitting on my bed. “It’s nothing and what are you wearing to Andrews party?” He changed the subject. “I don’t know,” I replied. 

I continue to look through my closet searching for what to wear. “Maybe I can help you get dressed” He steps in front of me. “No thanks and why are you still in here” I moved him from in front of me. “Who is Andrew?” He says quietly. I turn to see him back on my bed playing with my rings on the nightstand. “He’s my best friend,” I replied. “I think you should wear that one” He points. “I already wore that,” I replied quickly. “When?” He says confusion. “When you weren’t here” I said quietly. The room fell in silence. “I’m sorry” I said breaking the silence. “It’s fine plus you're right I mean I wasn’t here so what did I expect, everything to be the same way I left it” He gets up and leaves.

I decided I would just wear my black crop top and a skirt with my leather jacket and some heels. I grabbed my pocket book and headed towards the door. “Where are you going” my cousin says pausing the tv. “I already told you this morning” I rolled my eyes. “Oh I forgot” He gets up. “You look nice,” he says while analyzing my outfit. “I’m not a child you know that right” I roll my eyes. “I know I’m just saying guys can get the wrong idea” He replies. “Well guys need to learn how to control themselves” I replied sternly. “I’m just telling you the truth , no need to jump down my throat” he rolls his eyes. “Matter of fact since you think I can’t protect myself why don’t the both of you come to the party with me” I said. “I would love to but I don’t wanna crash” Tris replies. “I would like to go,” Brad says. “It will be fun plus you know Andrew he’s not like that” I try to convince Tris. Tris stands there with his hand on his chin. “Come on Tris it could be fun” Brad pipes in. “Okay I’ll go just let me get ready” He says before heading down the hallway.

I took a seat on the sofa while I waited for them to get ready. I decided to text the other boys and told them to come as well. They also agreed to come. 

After taking forever, they were finally ready. “Finally” I roll my eyes. “Maybe next time you invite people-” Tris tries to say before I cut him off. “Whatever let’s go” I drag both of them towards the front door. When we reached down stairs and began walking towards the car. When we arrived at the car there was already someone in it. It was Sarah and she was sitting in the front seat which meant I would be sitting in the back with him. “Looks like we're sitting in the back” He whispers into my ear. “Yes sitting” I roll my eyes which causes him to laugh. “Don’t kill each other there,” My cousin says as we all get in the car. The car ride was anything but silent. While my cousin and his girlfriend were busy chatting it up in the front I was busy trying to ignore my seat partner. “You can’t ignore me forever” He laughs. “Actually I can,” I replied. “Anyway tell me more about your friend” he changes the topic. “What do you want to know?” I turn my attention to him. He was wearing all black as usual. Emo much. “I don’t know just stuff,” he says quietly. “Well I have known him since I was a kid and he’s like a big brother that’s it” I replied. I watch a smile appear on his face as I finish my sentence. “What are you smiling about?” I said. “Nothing but anyway you look great” He changes the topic again. “Thank you” I smiled. “Are you gonna compliment me back” He pipes up. I couldn’t help but laugh. “Don’t flatter yourself” I laugh. “No need to be rude, I know you can’t resist me” He laughs. I couldn’t help but roll my eyes. “I can make your eyes go back like that” He jokes. I punched him in the arm. “Ow! I was just joking” He holds his arm. “Hey didn’t I tell you two to not start that in my car” my cousin pipes up. “You should tell her to keep her hands to herself as well she's all over me” he laughs. “Keep playing with me and my hands won’t be the only thing that’s gonna hurt you” I say pulling out my taser which causes everyone to laugh. “I think I’ll enjoy that,” he whispers in my ear. “Of course you would” I roll my eyes. The rest of the car ride was just music playing and him smiling at me.

When we finally arrived at my two besties' flat I was excited. I couldn’t wait to hang out with my friends and just have fun. As soon as the elevator door opened on their floor I rushed to the door. I knock on the door and basically bang it.  When the door opened I was shocked to see the person in front of me. What was he doing here?
