chapter 7 - i think you're cool

i woke up confused at my surroundings but then remembered everything that happened last night. i was laying on top of Billie. i lifted my head and looked at her. she was holding her phone with one hand, scrolling and had the other one on my head, playing with my curly, short hair.

"good morning Skylar" she said in a singing voice.

"good morning Bil". i rested my head on her chest once again and closed my eyes.

"did you sleep well?" she asked.

well? it was definitely the best sleep of my life.

"mhmm" i hummed. "what's the time?"

"it's almost 1pm" she noted.

"WHAT?" i screamed. "i was supposed to go get my stuff from my um old house in the morning"

"calm down, it's fine. get ready and i'll give you a lift" she offered.

"ah thanks Billie". i kissed her cheek and got out of bed.

"Billie?"

"yeah"

"uh can i borrow some clothes?" i asked hesitantly.

"of course! go to my closet and grab whatever you want"

"okay thank you so much". i smiled at her.

i walked over her closet and grabbed sweatpants and a hoodie.

"can i take these?". i showed her the clothes.

"you can take whatever you want. if you like them, you can keep them forever. i have tons of clothes" she chuckled.

"thanks but i don't think i can accept-"

"shut up you will accept it" she interrupted me and i just let a small laugh.

i entered the bathroom and put the clothes on.

(pretend this isn't Billie and she isn't outdoors lmao)

i looked kinda good in her clothes. she obviously pulled them off way better but still, i didn't look that bad.

i walked into her room again and she was already dressed up. damn this girl always looks fire.

"you look so good" we both complimented each other at the same time and then giggled.

"okay let's go, i don't want you to be late"

"Billie i am already late" i joked.

the drive was fun. we put on some music and talked about random stuff. we arrived at my house after 35 minutes.

"call me when you're done, i'll pick you up" she said before i got out of the car.

"Billie i came here to get my car, remember?" i teased her.

"oh yeah right". she seemed kinda disappointed? sad? i couldn't really tell. it felt like she really wanted to pick me up.

"i'll drive to your house when i'm done"

"hell yeah!" she said and gave me her biggest smile. "i hope everything goes alright. be safe. if something's wrong, call me" she spoke with concern in her voice.

i nodded and got out of the car.

as she was about to drive away i stopped her.

"wait Billie you never gave me your number" i screamed.

she rolled down the window.

"i- yeah you're right, im so dumb" she chuckled. "give me your phone"

i did as she told me. she wrote her number in my contacts and passed me the phone.

"alright. now call me if you need anything".

"thank you Billie. i need to go inside now".

she waved at me and i waved back.

i opened my phone and looked for the number she saved in there a few moments later.

i couldn't help but crack a smile when i read the name she chose for the contact.

"hey Skylar, i think you're cool ;)"

what did that mean? if you want my honest opinion it didn't seem very innocent. it felt...flirty? was she flirting with me? well it kinda felt like it never in a million years would i believe that Billie fucking Eilish liked me. she has a good taste, she wouldn't like someone like me. i had already got enough attention from her which i definitely didn't deserve. she probably did this to be a nice friend. it couldn't mean something more, right?

suddenly i snapped out of my thoughts, remembering why i was at that place. i grabbed my keys and went to unlock the door of my house probably for the last time.

i was kinda nervous.

A/N: hey guys how are you?

i just wanna let you know i narrate the story slowly because i try to keep it as realistic as possible and not skip anything yk, that's why some chapters may seem kind of irrelevant. i hope you like it this way.
