Falling For Your Friends // The Menendez Brothers

2/ Getting Ready

It was the next morning and you noticed someone standing by your door frame. You weirdly felt really warm and comfier than normal. You then remembered that Erik stayed over for the night...

y/n pov:

I slightly opened my eyes, starting to wake up. Is there someone at my door?? Whatever it's probably my mom checking on me. I'll just wake up later, i'm way to comfy. It's so warmm and cozy right now. Agh sometimes I really just love my beddd. Oh crap I am still wearing my bracelet, jeez how could I forget to take it off. I could've broke a reaallyy expensive and literally beautiful bracelet that Erik gave me- OMG WAIT WHY ARE THERE ARMS AROUND ME. ERIK-

You stood up from your bed which startled and woke Erik up. And when you turned to see who was really at your door, you saw Lyle. 

y/n: uhh-

erik: oh um sorry y/n... i didn't mean to-

y/n: oh no its okay- i just forgot that you stayed the night

lyle: yea and someone forgot to tell me too

erik: oh shi-  i didn't want to wake you, and i just needed to get out of the house, sorry lyle

lyle: yea it's fine, let's just go you are gonna be late for tennis practice

erik: well um.. i'm actually not going

y/n: we are actually gonna go to some wedding for one of my parents' friends

lyle: oh i see... and why wasn't i invited?

y/n: uhh... i-

lyle: ahah i'm joking, i got to go somewhere later with Jamie anyways

lyle: okay erik i'm only covering for you this one last time. so you can go on your little date with y/n... lyle says while laughing

You roll your eyes as Lyle leaves. 

lyle's pov:

i need to find erik before mom and dad kill him. he probably went off to see y/n after that big fight with dad. i rang y/n's doorbell and her mom answered. "is y/n here" i asked her mom, "i think she's still asleep, but you can go check," her mom replied. i went upstairs to room and once i opened the door, i couldn't help but notice how pretty y/n looked while she was sleeping. i really couldn't help staring and admiring her beauty for a few more seconds. but what was I saying she was like a sister to me, and i've known her for way too long, and i have a girlfri- wait is that someone's arm around her. i leaned into her room a little closer and noticed that it was erik. i stood there for a few more seconds contemplating whether I should wake them up or not, then i saw y/n starting to wake up. but she seemed too comfy and relaxed. oh crap- i think i scared her since she just got up from her bed really quickly. i told them i was just there to get erik for tennis practice, but ended up finding out that they were actually going to a wedding together. i got a little angry and i didn't even know why, it was probably because i was gonna get in trouble for being the one to tell mom and dad that erik wasn't able to make it to tennis practice.

y/n: hey erik stay here, i'll be back to go get you a suit from my dad's closet.

erik: yea sure

erik's pov:

I looked and wandered around y/n's room for a few minutes as i waited for her to get back from her dad's closet with a suit. i may have gotten a little curious and peaked into one of her half opened drawers. in the drawer i noticed a book that said "KEEP OUT" was this y/n's diary? even after being friends for so long, she doesn't really tell me or lyle about her life. yea sure she mentions things, but never really says much about her life. curiosity got the best of me and i ended up opening to a random page in the book and started reading the page;

Dear Diary,

04/12/86,   Sunday 

Mom always says to write things you can't actually tell anyone else in here. She even says if you hate someone so much, just write to avoid any conflict. So here, He did it again and I hated it. I've always hated it, but I can't stop it. I'm just not strong enough. I thought he would stop, but he did it again. And I can't tell Erik or Lyle or he will do bad things to them. I HATE YO-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

y/n: okay, so i got two suits that I think will fit you...

Oh crap, she's coming. I quickly stopped reading and put the book back. I kept wondering who she was talking about, and why they would do bad things to me and Lyle. If only i had a few more seconds to see their name.

erik: oh these look really nice, im gonna take a quick shower first before I wear them...

As you walked into the room you noticed that erik was acting kind of weird. He told you he was gonna shower and you let him know there were extra towels and soap in the second drawer. Erik already knew that since he's been showering at your house after his tennis practice's numerous times before. 

So you sat on your bed waiting for erik to come back and try on the suits you found him. It felt like hours waiting for him to finish showering, then he came into your room with nothing but a towel wrapped around his waist. 

y/n's pov:

I sat waiting on my bed for erik to come out of the shower. then finally, I heard the bathroom door open and saw he only had a towel wrapped around his waist, but omg when I saw his chest and abs- Why am i kind of freaking out right now?!! I've seen him shirtless before when we used to go swimming together as kids. But this time it was different. he didn't have abs then, um- you just couldn't keep your eyes away. but finally you snapped out of this weird zoned out moment, when erik asked you where the suits were.

*JUST PRETEND HE DOESN'T HAVE THAT SHIRT ON OKAY-*

You laid out the suits on your bed and before leaving the room for him to change, you told him to choose the suit he liked the most..

You then went into your mother's closet to find a nice dress. You didn't really like wearing dresses so you didn't own many, so to actually find a nice dress you had to go to your mom's closet.

This was the only dress that you could find that wasn't black, white, or too colorful in your mom's closet. This was also the only dress that could fit you. You threw on some heels to make your outfit look nicer.
