Battered and Bruised.

January: entry 12

I picked up my phone, texting Xander, "Xander I can't, I'll be with the twins and a friend the whole day. I don't think we should hang out anymore, I'm sorry." I texted, I was scared to hit send, but I did. "K. Whatever." he sent back, I felt terrible. I wanted to just go and die. "He's just a little mad." Chase said. "He'll get over it." Chase continued. "I know..." I said. "I love you" I told Chase, he looked surprised that I said that. "Love you too." he smiled, the twins came in "You know, it's 6 am and I dunno about you but I need beauty rest." Hana said. I laughed. "I'm going back to bed, you guys can sleep in the guest room, I don't care, just don't have sex too loud." Hana said, walking into their room, Liz laughing as she followed behind. Chase picked me up again, bridal style, and carried me into the guest room, "Here, change into this" He said as he tossed me his shirt "Wow, how perverted." I said as I laughed. "Hey, I wanna see some leg." he said in a playful tone, I undressed from my jeans and threw the T-shirt on over my bra and panties, I saw Chase turn around, he was so toned. "Dang." I said. "What?" he asked. "That." I pointed at his six-pack. "Well, ya know, I work out." Chase said. "Nooo, really?!" I said as I laid down on the bed, Chase laying down next to me. Chase grabbed me close like he did before, holding me in a hug, arm wrapped around my waist. "I like this." I told him. "Like what?" he asked, smiling. "Us." I said, his face turning a dash of red. I giggled, he smiled back, "I like us too." he said, kissing me, I kissed back, we fall asleep in about five minutes.

"WAKE UP LOVE BIRDS!" Liz shouted as she opened the curtains. I groaned and buried my head into Chase's chest, him still in a deep sleep. I smiled as Hana shook me and tickled me in an attempt to get me out of the bed. "Come on, guys, time to get up! we wanna go somewhere today!!" Liz said. "But we don't!!!" Chase said, it made me jump, not expecting him to reply. "Fine! I guess the cheesecake factory is gonna be for only Hana, Jax, Cole, and I!" Liz said "Okay, have fun." Chase mumbled. I giggled. "Bring me some chocolate mousse cake!" I called. "okay!" Hana called back, we heard the door close and Chase sat up. "Nice acting, Mr.McAfee." I told him, he laughed, "As to you, Ms.Jackson." He said. Chase grabbed my waist and tackled me into the bed, I laughed and hid under the sheets, him looking around the bed for me, when he caught me he took the sheets away and kissed me, why can't all days be like this? "Everyone else in the room can see it, everyone else but yo-ou! Baby you light up my world like nobody else!" my phone sang, I picked up, laughing "H-el-lo?" I was laughing so hard. "Hey, what's up?" it was a familiar voice, but I couldn't quite place it... "Who is this?" I asked. "How can you not remember your own friend's voice?" she tutted. It was Alice. I put it on speaker. "Oh, hey Alice..." I said, Chase shot me a look of worry. "I hear you had some fun with hearts last night, huh?" she said, I can imagine an evil smirk showing across her smooth, pimple less face. "in what respect?" I asked. "You broke poor Xander's heart, he came crying to me to take him back. nice job you little skank." she said, my heart sank. "Well, you know, if you wanted to flaunt your leftovers then just say so." Chase said, I laughed, he called Xander leftovers. "Why didn't you just call him that to his face? he's right here." She said, I just got annoyed, "Bye Alice." I said as I hung up the phone. "Well, that was a little mean of you, you know, hanging up on Alice and all." he said smiling, repeating what I had said in math. "Well, I said she was a bitch, right?" I laughed, so did he. I sat back down on the bed, Chase hugged me, I turned to him, squeezing his cheeks, "Say 'my name is guppy'!" I told him. "My name is Guppy." he said, "I do not smile" I told him to say. "I do not smile." he said. "but you, I will kiss." he said as he kissed me, I laughed. "Follow the script, McAfee!" I told him, jokingly. "Well, I was improving!" He laughed. I kissed him, we finally got out of the bed and went into the living room, "I'm hungry..." Chase said, "Well, good luck trying to find something non-tofu. The twins are vegans, but they do a monthly splurge." I told him. "Then order a pizza." he told me. "Well, Mr.rotten. Maybe I will." I said as I grabbed my phone, "From where?" I asked. "I don't know, Pizza Hut?" he said "Well I don't know their number, so Domino's it is!" I exclaimed. "Well, I didn't have much if a choice then." Chase explained. "Nope!" I said. "Hello, Domino's pizza how may I help you?" the pizza boy asked, "What do you want?" I asked chase. "Uhh pepperoni." he said, "I would like a half cheese half Pepperoni pizza, please!" I said. "Alright, that'll be 15.60, is that for pick up or delivery?" he asked, "delivery, please!" I said. "Okay, it'll be here in 30 minutes" I told Chase, "But I'll be dead by then!" Chase complained. "Well, then I'll have to give you CPR then won't I?" I asked, giggling. "Yes, please," he smiled playfully.

I opened the door, to see a boy around my age holding the pizza, "Well, hello there." he said, "Hi!" I said smiling, "Here's your pizza, do you have anyone to share this with?" he asked, hoping for me to say no, just then Chase showed up behind me, his 6"4 height matching that of the pizza guy, "As a matter of fact, she does." He said, kissing my cheek, "Thanks for the offer though, bro." Chase said. "Well, you two have a lovely day, enjoy your pizza." he said a little nervous, I have no idea why, maybe because he realised how I was wearing Chase's shirt. I paid him and he winked at me as he left, ew. "That guy was almost drooling when he saw you." Chase said. "Is someone a little jealous?" I asked. "No, just ready to punch a guy in the gut if needed." Chase said, taking a bite from his pizza. I laughed and ate mine.

Hana and Liz came in the door as Chase and I were cuddled up on the couch, watching T.V. "so you're mooching off us?!" Hanna joked. "Hell yeah." Chase said as he made a thumbs up. Liz laughed as Jax and Cole followed behind them coming in, "Hey Cole, hey Jax." I said "Hey, J." Jax said "What's up?" Cole said. "So, I see you,re getting close to the new guy." Jax said, Cole whispered something to Jax and they started laughing. "Well, let's hear you say that when you're feeling up on Liz." I said, Liz started bursting out laughing, Jax got red as a beet. Chase looked at Jax, he didn't like Jax, I could tell. He looked at Cole next, he was fine with him. Chase held me tighter, "So, I hear someone got beat up?" Cole said, sounding more serious than usual, Cole and I were like brothers, we had known each other for a long time. I nodded my head. "Who's the bastard?!" Cole said, getting angry, "Chill, bro, I'm gonna handle it on Monday, you'll see." Chase said. "Well let me get a punch in." Cole smirked. "Maybe." Chase laughed. We all AAT and talked forever, until Jax and Cole had to leave. We said our goodbyes and they

left.
