"Hello?" I say when I answer the phone.
"Hey." Erick's voice sounds from the other end.
"Why'd you call? You never call." I say.
"I...I don't know." He admits.
"Missed me?" I say cockily.
"Keep telling yourself that." He says, and I know he's smiling.
"Who's she talking to?" I hear Nai ask Jas.
"Erick." Jas says with a smirk.
The girls giggle.
"Who are you with?" Erick asks.
"The girls. We're having a girl's night." I say.
"Without me? That's mean." He says.
I roll my eyes.
"Erick, it's a girl's night! Go find your boys to hang out with." I say.
"So? And I am hanging out with them. They're being boring." He says cutely.
"What do you want me to do?" I ask.
"Invite us. Where are you?" He asks.
"No! Mom allowed only the four of us! And besides, it's a GIRL'S NIGHT." I say.
"Guys, they're at Jesy's house. They're having a sleepover without us! The injustice!" Erick says, ignoring everything I just said.
I hear a few muffled noises in the background.
"Alright. We're coming over." He says.
"What? No! Erick, don't you dare-" I say, but he cuts the call.
Less than ten minutes later, the bell rings.
I open the door, revealing Erick, Ty and Jake.
My eyes immediately land on Erick.
He looks hot as hell.
His hair is messily sticking out in all the right directions, making him look ten times more attractive than usual.
He's wearing a gray comfortable hoodie and black jeans.
His green eyes rake my own body and land on my lips.
I subconsciously bite my lower lip.
His eyes turn a shade darker and suddenly, I feel like it's just the two of us in the room.
Jake clears his throat and looks between me and Erick as though he knows what's going on.
Ty snickers, snapping us out of our staring contest.
"Yeah, hi." I say, opening the door wider so they can come in.
Jas, Nai and Ann peep over my shoulder.
"Why did you invite them?" Nai asks, pouting.
"They invited themselves." I said glaring at Erick.
He pouts at me.
"What? Not happy to see me?" He asks, slightly offended.
"Nope." I say, shaking my head and sticking my tongue out at him.
He pinches the bridge of my nose in retaliation.
"Nai, Ann, Jas, tell me, was this a girl's night or not?" I ask.
They nod their heads in unison and glare at their respective boyfriends.
"And did we or did we not establish that boyfriends are not welcome?" I ask.
