JOHN'S P.O.V
PHONE CALL
**"Hello?"
"Hey, are you on your way to class?"
"Yes, why are you up? I mean I'm glad your up, it's just you didn't have to be."
"Oh umm I didn't want you to be alone, I mean I know your alone I just wanted to know if you wanted someone to talk to." Trying to sound as considerate as possible.
"Well thank you, it's nice to talk to someone at five o'clock in the morning." I beat her cheeks are bright pink.
"Well do you have any coffee handy? Cause I plan on talking to you the whole way there."
"Why yes sir I do...French Vanilla to be exact."
"Mmm sounds good."
"Well what do you want to talk about?"
"Well umm I didn't think I'd get this fair so I have nothing planned." My face starts to flush.**We talked the whole way to her class. It was mostly about where I'm going to take her on our "date" I'm not exactly sure on what to call it, but I can't wait. It's about seven o'clock and I can't help but think about her. I can't seem to fall asleep and my phone buzzing from under me is not helping either. I look at the screen and Brooke's picture is bright and continually buzzing. I have no idea why she's calling me but I don't care that much to answer her. She calls about five more times and I'm starting to think that something could be wrong. I'm so mad at Tony that he gave her my number. And I'm still just as mad that he paid Brooke to kiss me, even after I told him how I felt about Ariah. I'm going to tell her about what he did on our "date", I can't help but get butterflies when I think about it.
I had fallen asleep only for a couple of hours until I hear a doorbell being rung. I have no idea who it is and I'm just as mad cause they woke me up. Thank goodness my parents aren't here. I look out the window and I am in utter shock. I swing the door open and Brooke stands in the doorway.
"What are you doing here?." I'm speechless in a way, I'm taking in her demeanor and she looks like she just hit the jackpot. She's starting to disgust me. Her lips are chapped once again and her hair is up in a pony tail. She is pretty but she would be prettier if I didn't know her.
"I'm here because I want to talk to you." How on earth did she know where I lived?
"How did you find me?"
"You gave me your address."
"No I gave you my old address, before I moved, not the new one."
"No you gave me this one too." I start to get a suspicion that Tony could have given it to her.
"Will you at least let me in to your house? I don't want to be standing here in your doorway the whole time." I contemplate on letting her in or not, I go against my better judgment and let her in.
"Wow your house is amazing, has Ariah been her yet?" She says it with a smug look as if she's saying 'I'm the first one to see it and not her'.
"No not yet, we're going on a date this weekend tho." I'm trying to rub it in her face as much as possible.
"Hmmm." She replies as if she's not happy to hear that.
"So explain to me why on earth you showed up at my house at nine o'clock in the morning?"
"Well I wanted to say that I was sorry for kissing you the other night, and that Tony payed me in order to do it, and I'm guessing because he wanted to make Ariah like him and not you." I don't think she's being in any way considerate.
"Well thank you for your apology, is there anything else?" I just want her out of my house.
"Gosh what are you doing at nine o'clock that's got you in a hurry anyway?" What I do is none of her concern, but I'm actually not doing anything.
"I was actually sleeping, I have classes tomorrow I was hoping to sleep in."I brush my fingers through my hair trying to relieve the stress and anger that's flowing through me. When I'm with Ariah I'm no were near stressed, she has this ease that comes with her, everything seems so natural, although she does make me nervous it's a good nervous. When I'm around Brooke she always gets me worked up by the littlest things and she sometimes drives me crazy, but not in a way Ariah does. I always compare people to her.
"Well I do want to tell you something else." I don't take my eyes away from the ground to look up at her.
"What is it?"
She starts to move closer to me and I have this feeling that she might whisper it into my ear. My head is still looking down at the floor when she places her lips against mine. I'm utterly disgusted and want nothing to do with her. I push her as hard as I could but she's surprisingly strong. She only goes back a few steps to smile at me and give me a wicked smile."What is wrong with you?! I don't like you! Way would you kiss me? Get out!" I'm just rambling words and I'm now pointing towards the door. She just looks down at the phone in her hands and my stomach drops. I know exactly what she did and why she did it. I go to grab the phone from her hands but I was too late. She had already sent it to Tony. She's going to use this against me. My mind is running rapid and I'm thinking of all the bad scenarios that could happen. I should have told Ariah that Brooke was paid to kiss me, and maybe she would believe me more. I don't know what I'm going to do I'm just hoping that Ariah is the smart girl I take her for.
"Will you give me my phone back?" Brooke is standing in front of me with her hand stretched out in front of her begging for her phone. I'm thinking about texting Ariah from her phone and telling her that 'it's Brooke and I'm just jealous cause you have John and I don't' but I don't want Brooke to have Ariah's number. I throw her phone back to her and motion for her to leave my house immediately. As she walks out the door she turns around facing me and blowing me kiss. I feel like I'm going to throw up.
My head is spinning and all I want is to rewind what just happened and never let Brooke into my house. I'm looking for my phone when I remember that Tony doesn't have Ariah's number. I feel a little relieved but there are other ways you can show someone a picture. I want to call Ariah up and tell her what just happened but I'm afraid she's still at class. I decide to lay back down to bed and come up with a plan.
ARIAH'S P.O.V
My classes finally come to an end and I'm looking through the hallways trying to dodge Lewis. Lewis is really nice and cute but he's kinda weird, he keeps popping up at random times and it's starting to terrify me. When I think I've lost him I was wrong.
"Hey Ariah."
"Hey Lewis."
"So are you done all of your classes?"
"Thankfully I am."
"Well um what are you doing tonight?"
We walk out of the front door and a nice breeze sets in.
"I actually-" but before I could finish he cuts me off.
"Who is that guy?" There is a guy waving towards us and I'm not exactly sure if he's waving at me or Lewis.
"I have no idea."
When we start to get closer I start to identify the person.
"Is that your boyfriend?"
"No." Definitely no.
"Well I gotta go I'll see you later okay." Lewis quickly walks away from me and I'm left alone. I then walk over to the person."Well hello Ariah."
"Hi Tony."
