Kill To Love

Study session

As soon as I got home, I made a special effort to clean my room and the sitting room. Daryl was coming over and I didn't want him to see how dirty I really was. I checked the time when I had finally finished and it read 6:37PM, which meant that I still had around twenty minutes before he came. I didn't have his number because I was too afraid to ask him but I I need it. What would I do with it?
I was sprawled on the couch, scrolling through my social media and I heard the knock on the door. A wave of nervousness washed over me as I realised who it was.
"Hi.", I said as I opened the door. I put my hands inside my sleeves and held them with my fingers. Daryl wasn't facing me when I opened the door and he turned around slowly.
"Hey!", he said and pushed past me. Daryl looked around, his eyes scanning the room. I stood nervously at the door and when I realised that I had kept it open I shut it and stood behind it. Watching carefully as he examined my house.
He nodded, in approval and looked at me, confused.
"What are you doing just standing there. This is your home, isn't it? Come, take me around.", he said, grabbing my hand. I wriggles out of his grip and went into the sitting room. Daryls eyes widened when his eyes saw how big and modernised my living room was. I smiled at his reaction but when he turned to face me I looked away, pretending to not smile at all.
"I saw that.", he said.
I turned to look at him, "Sure. Let's go.", I said and sat down on the couch.
"Why here?!", he complained like a kid.
"What? Where else do you want to go? The moon?", I smiled sarcastically.
"The moon would be good.", he replied with equal sarcasm.
I groaned and grabbed my stuff and went up the stairs. Daryl behind me taking in the sight around him, maybe more than just my house as he was behind me.
When we got the the top floor I opened the door to my bedroom and threw myself on my bed. I sat down waiting for him to take his seat somewhere in the room. He threw his bag on the floor and opened it.

"What are you doing!", I laughed.
"What?! What should I do?", he asked, generally confused.
"You're supposed to put the heart here not there that's where the stomach goes!", I giggled. He stared at me, still confused and I did it for him. Stepping into help, I could feel the close proximity between us on the bed. Our knees were touching, books on our legs. I guess we both noticed it because we looked up at both of us.
He smiled and I smiled back. I couldn't have anything going on because somehow Patricia would find out.

"Give me the kit!", I scream at my brother Jake.
"Shut the fuck up, Mike!", he shouted back and handed me the kit. We were outside Julie's house, and we wanted to listen to what these two lovebirds were talking about. Neither me or Jake didn't know how to use the spy kit so we had to drag Andrew out of his house and down to our neighbourhood. I fixed my hoodie, to cover my head. Me, Jake and Andrew all stood outside in the night cold listening to them. Nothing interesting was going on until we did.
"...you know I heard beautiful girl have clever minds.", Daryl spoke.
"Where'd you get that from?", Julie laughed. I didn't want to be that guy and shit but she sounded cute when she laughed, but she ain't mine so I wouldn't do nothing to ruin their relationship.
Me and Jake laughed at Daryls cheesy line, but we had to hold it in slightly because we didn't want to get noticed.

"Okay, so we can finish that part next time?" , Daryl asked.
"Yup.", I nodded.
Whe had been studying for almost three hours and it was starting to get dark, but my mum wouldn't be back after midnight.
I looked at Daryl and he seemed as if something was on his mind but i didn't want to ask because I didn't want to intrude. If he didn't want to talk about whatever was on his mind that was fine.
"Hey?", Daryl smiled at me, I knew where this was going.
"Yes?", I asked, fixing my hair up in a bun.
"Can-can I ask a quick question?", he seemed a little nervous but I didn't think anything of it.
"Sure. Go ahead!", I replied, ready to take whatever he was going to throw at me.
"Who was that guy, yesterday?", he asked me. I felt a wave of nervousness washed over me and I took a deep breath in.
"That guy is not my business anymore.", I said, keeping brief.
Daryl nodded, understanding that I wasn't ready to talk about Tommy. He smiled apologetically and came to sit next to me.
"Okay.", he whispered. I could feel his warm breath on my lips, it smelt like heaven and I didn't want it to stop. We both noticed the close proximity between us and I knew what Daryl wanted. What we were both waiting for. One of us to break it and just finally give in, if that's even what he wanted.
I watched his lips form a smile and just as he came closer, his body heat, addictive scent and his lips, we were interrupted.
Outside of my bedroom window I could hear giggling. Daryl tried to make me dismiss it but I broke put of our proximity and walked towards the window. And what I saw made me want to throw Daryl outside the window.
"WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING?!!", I shouted out the window. Outside I could see Jake, Mike and Andrew standing there. In there hands they were holding something but it was too dark for me to see it. I screamed at them, in anger.
"What?!", Daryl asked, panicking, "Why are you guys here?!", he shouted out the window.
I dragged the boy from the window, refraining myself from pushing him out it, and gave him the lecture of his life.
"HA! SO THIS, ", I pointed out the window, "WAS YOUR PLAN ALL ALONG? TO GO AHEAD AND PLAY A FUCKING PRANK ON THE NEW GIRL?! YEAH, WELL THATS DONE SO YOU CAN GET THE HELL OUT!", I screamed at him, tears welling up in my eyes.
"Jules..", he tried but I was too angry to listen to whatever he had to say.
"DO NOT CALL ME THAT.", I said, tears now rolling down my cheeks. Only my dad called me that, the one and only person that I loved so much.
"I didnt-", he tried again.
"OUT!", I screamed at him and this time he obeyed. I didn't bother to go downstairs to see him go, I couldn't even look at him. He played with me, with my feeling when he knew I was in a vulnerable state. I wiped my tears away angrily and went to take a long shower to clean off any traces of Daryl touch.
Ew.
