Love and Hate His Baby

Drake stopped the car and my jaw almost dropped the moment I saw the house... I mean the mansion in front of us. It's very admirable to see even if I'm still inside the car. What more if I see the whole of it.

I was about to open the door, but Drake did it for me. Before I could even step out Drake already kneel giving his back to me. I stared at his back wondering what should I do.

"Ride, you can't walk properly right?" I felt my cheeks heated up. I wanna shriek because of what he said. I can't even explain what I feel. Gosh! I wanna jump.

"Hey! Do you wanna walk or your gonna ride my back now?" It's kinda obvious that she is upset because I made him wait. He even emphasize the word now.

He is really a short-tempered kind of guy. I hate those types but because of him I kinda like it if a boy is easily-annoyed.

He turned back and glared at me. I know he is starting to get annoyed because of me making him wait.

"Sorry." I snorted but deep inside I still feel like squealing in happiness. Me and my abnormal heart.

I ride his back and I was hesitant to circle my hands around his neck but I suddenly felt the warmth of his hands into mine guiding it around his neck. He is being romantic even if he doesn't realize it. How can't you like a boy who is being sweet without even realizing it? It means that what they are saying is from the heart and not being dictate by the mind.

He started to stood up and I was beyond amaze as we enter their house. Am I in the white house now? Everything about it shouts glamour.

"Drake! Good thing you're now here." A girl who I can say is same our age came shouting in relief. She looks haggard with her hair that looks like a bird's nest but she is still pretty.

She was about to say something when I accidentally cross her eyes. Her eyebrows raised by the look of me, then a sudden realization struck me. Maybe she is the girl that Drake is talking to earlier when we are in his car.

The girl's eyes went down to our hands.

"Drake, who is she?" The girl asked pouting towards me. Is she Drake's girlfriend? Well, she is pretty but not as pretty as me. And, I'm not jealous, I'm just telling the truth.

"Oh... the forgetful mind of mine." Drake scratch his head while chuckling. "Eunice, this is Paige my..." Drake paused to find the right word to say.

"Your what?" Eunice asked teasingly. Wait! I thought she's Drake's girlfriend? Is she not jealous towards us? Don't tell me that she thinks I'm so ugly that's why I'm not worth of his jealousy and Drake will never be in to me.

"She's my friend Eunice. Just that." Friend, just one word but hurts so much. Well, at least he considers me as a friend.

"Okay. No need to be defensive." Eunice turned to me after he said that. "Hi I'm Eunice. Erica's tutor." Now I felt so ashamed and guilt is running in my system for thinking that she is Drake's girl. And not to mention that I said that I am way prettier than her.

"Hi! I'm Paige." I shake her hands as I introduce myself even if I'm riding Drake's back.

"Well, Drake I'm sorry because I can't handle your sister anymore. She is so naughty and it's obvious that she don't like me. Well, she hates everybody except you and Shake." Sister? She has a sister? Wow! I stalked him for four years and I didn't even know that.

"She just won't listen to me every time I try to teach her how to do her assignments and she is always playing pranks on me." She is starting to get dramatic.

Drake sighed. "Okay Eun. Thanks for everything by the way. Don't worry, I'll still pay you." He said sadly and let out a gasp after talking.

"Thanks and goodbye to the two of you. I need to be going now." She said to the both of us and I just waved at her goodbye as she walk through the door. She seemed relieve with the look on his face.
