Different Thoughts [ WEEKLYCHRIS | CHRIS COLLINS ]

Chap 29.

[ No one's POV ]

"You're fucking burning the bacon!" Jack yells at Ryan. They woke up about an hour ago and they confirmed that Chris wasn't on the couch anymore; no surprise really, so they thought that yelling at each other was no harm. Ryan decided that it'd be a great idea to make some breakfast for them, to calm down Anna, since she was upset yesterday.

"Yeah well, I'm cooking! And you're not doing shit!" Ryan yells back and opens the refrigerator to grab a carton of milk for himself. Jack sighs and rolls his eyes, Ryan was right but neither one of them can cook, so he isn't even gonna try it. He doens't want to burn the house down.

Meanwhile upstairs, Anna woke up due to their bickering. You could hear everything, cause the doors of the living room and the hall aren't closed. She groans and tries to roll around, but gets blocked by a pair of arms around her waist. "What the?" Anna murmurs and Chris, who's laying behind her, wakes up too.

"Anna?" Chris says with a groggy morning voice. He remembered going to Anna's room because he couldn't sleep and because he kind of felt bad for her. He likes her, he really does and he's going to prove her.

"Why are you in my room?" Anna says confused and throws off his arms. It's way too early in the morning to argue with him.

"I-," Chris wants to explain it, but gets cut off by Anna's phone, which is laying on the nightstand next to Chris. "Why the fuck is that douchebag calling you?" he frowns while reaching over to grab her phone and looks at Anna.

"He is not a douchebag," Anna says through gritted teeth, trying not the yell at him for both their sakes, it's eleven in the morning. "And I can talk to whoever I want to. You're not my dad nor boyfriend last time I checked."

Chris' confused expression turns into a sad one and he hands over her phone, before running his hand through his hair.

Anna sighs, she didn't mean to be hurtful, she was just stating the truth, and presses the green button, "Hey, Jas?"

Chris clenches his jaw, looks like they're buddy-buddy again.

"Uhh... I don't think that's a great idea right now. I'm kind of busy for the next days," Anna says uncomfortable and Chris raises his eyebrows. He is dying to know what they're talking about.

"Yeah... No, I'm okay, Jason," she says and blushes a little afterwards, "No... I haven't told him and he doesn't need to know."

[ Anna's POV ]

Jason asked me if I told Chris about our kiss. Shit. I feel a light blush on my cheeks and look worriedly at Chris. He looks confused and a little hurt. I feel bad for him after he confessed yesterday night, but I can't trust him yet.

"Anna? You there?" I hear Jason's voice through the phone. I snap back to reality and get off my bed to walk over to the bathroom. "Yeah... yeah," I turn around to glance at Chris and open the bathroom door, so I can have some privacy.

"You don't think that you should tell him?" Jason says. I roll my eyes and yawn before looking in the mirror. Great, I have bags under my eyes and my hair is a bird nest. I grab some gum from a drawer and pop it in my mouth, hoping that my morning breath goes away.

"Well, it was a one time thing, honestly," I say softly, hoping that Chris isn't eavesdropping and I turn on the faucet, just in case he's listening.

"Oh... I thought that you liked me, cause I wanted to ask if you-," my eyes widen and I almost drop my phone when I hear Jason say the words. Is he really going to say what I think he's going to say? But of course, a knock on the door startles me and I jump backwards, causing me to fall into a pile of dirty clothes. A gasp and a high pitched scream slip out of my mouth and I drop my phone on the floor, resulting a crack on the screen.

"Is everything alright in there?" I hear a worried voice of Ryan and just second later, he opens the door.

"I'm fine," I say the same time Ryan says, "Why are you lying on the floor?" We laugh and Ryan takes a step into the bathroom, stretching his arm to help me up.

I take his hand and smile, "I'm just clumsy." I bend down to grab my phone in the pile of dirty clothes and groan when I notice the crack and the black screen.

"Are you alright? Is your phone damaged?" Ryan asks and stops the water from flowing out of the sink. I inspect the phone for more cracks and try to turn it on again.

"Shit," I say when I don't see the Apple sign appear, "it won't turn on. I guess I have to get a new one." I sigh and tuck my broken phone in my back pocket.

Ryan laughs softly and grabs my arm lightly, pulling me out of my bathroom, "I made some breakfast for you and Chris. Have you seen him anywhere?" He looks at me with a knowing expression and smiles. He's probably the nicest one of their gang. He lets go of my arm and turns around to open the door, his arms flexing in the process. I look at the ticking clock on my wall, trying to distract myself. I can't drool over him now.

"Anna?" he asks and frowns, "Do you know where Chris is?"

I nod and gulp, hoping he didn't catch me staring at him, "Y-yeah, he's in his room probably. I'm going downstairs, I'll see you later." I smile at him and slip past him. I jog down the hall and down the stairs, hearing the doorbell ring.

Who could be at the door? Dad and Jasmine won't be home for two more weeks and Jane and Chanel wouldn't come before three in the afternoon.

I groan and walk over to the front door, ignoring the fact that I'm wearing short pajama shorts and that I don't have any make-up on.

The bell rings again and I yell a, "I'm coming, shit!" before jogging over to the front door.

I yank the door open and narrow my eyes, due to the bright summer sun and lean against the door frame.

"Anna?" I hear a familiar voice say and I close my eyes before are adjusted to the sun.

"Jason?" I ask with a horrified expression on my face. Great, he couldn't have better timing.

"Is it your little sister?" I hear Jack's voice coming behind me and I turn around, looking at Jack with a stuffed mouth full of food and an angry looking Chris.
