Chapter 12: The House

Dylan's POV

We were all laughing and having a great time. Hayes pulled up into his uncle's driveway and parked the car. Suddenly I heard a siren.

Oh great. We're gonna get busted because of Hayes's problem with driving illegally.

Couldn't we have just taken a cab?

I could feel everyone hold their breath as the officer's car came closer to the driveway. But the police just passed right by us.

"Oh my god I thought they were going to catch us!" Katie breathed. "I know, same," Carissa agreed.

I hopped out of the car and sprinted around the vehicle to open up Carissa's door. She giggled and jumped out of her seat. Carissa still had a slight limp because of her knee and I felt bad. I felt like it was my fault since she was chasing ME in tag.

I grabbed Carissa's luggage for her and Hayes pulled out Katie's bags. We walked in through the garage door which was unlocked. 'This is going to be fun' I said to myself as we all made our way into the house.

Carissa's POV

We walked inside the house and I was speechless. This house was beyond huge and gorgeous. I couldn't believe Katie and I would get to stay in this house.

The house was painted white and had two stories and had a bunch of balconies and platforms. It also had a bunch of pretty decorations, furniture, and plants everywhere. The backyard had a wooden deck with a lap pool, a hot tub with a waterfall, a trampoline, a tennis court, and a small private beach.

"Um, I don't think I should come into this mansion. I'm afraid I'm gonna break something thats like a million dollars, and frankly, I barely have 20 dollars." I said giggling. "Hey, I'm the accident prone one here." Katie laughed.

"I CALL THE MASTER BEDROOM!!!" I yelled. "Calm down Carissa, every one of these rooms is a master bedroom," Hayes chuckled. My eyes widened and I looked over at Katie who was also wowed by this mansion.

"Okay, no one told me you were loaded." Katie said, her bottom jaw practically falling off her face. "Hey this is my uncle's place, not mine." Hayes said with his arms out in surrender. "Ya, ya, same difference." She shot back with a wink directed to Hayes.

Katie and I made our way up the stairs and Dylan and Hayes stayed on the first floor where their bedrooms were at.

I walked into the bedroom on the left and almost fainted. The room had pink and purple fairy lights hung up around the room on white walls and a humongous king size bed sitting right in the middle of the room.

The bed had a fluffy white comforter and a bunch of throw pillows with beautiful designs on them. There was a huge chandelier in the middle of the room and a little couch at the end of the bed.

There was a flat screen TV on the wall opposite the bed. There was a small desk placed next to the TV with cute little plants placed on the table and beside that was a small balcony.

The balcony had doors that swing open and a couple of chairs and a table were placed on the deck. The curtains were a lavender color and they lightly brushed the floor. There was an amazing view of the backyard and the beautiful city.

In the corner of the room, there was a door that led to the big walk in closet and one to the bathroom. The bathroom had a jacuzzi tub and a separate shower adjacent to it. The toilet and sink were across the room and next to the full body mirror was a variety of 'lush' products and towels.

I sat atop the bed and admired the room, then I started to unpack my clothes.

Katie's POV

I walked up to the second floor where there were only two rooms. I walked down the hall, and into the room on the right while Carissa walked into the other bedroom.

I made my way in. "You've got to be kidding me." I mumbled to myself.

The room was coral with a white and coral chevron accent wall. There was a king sized bed pressed up against the accent wall with a little seat in front of it. There were two baby chandeliers on each side of the bed.

There was a huge flat screen wall-mounted TV on the other wall. Beside it was a desk. From the balcony, I saw there was a patio that led to the pool. On top of the sliding doors to the balcony, there were coral curtains that matched the paint perfectly.

I walked into the huge walk-in closet with a huge bathroom connected to it. There was a bathtub on one side with a side table that had towels and 'lush' bath bombs on it. There was a huge mirror and spacious counter. This place is amazing.

I walked out with my elbows on the fencing and my hands on my cheeks. I was just starring out in the distance at the beautiful scenery. It was so serene, I loved it.

I went inside and laid on the bed to try and take a small nap. I was interrupted when a boy jumped on me. He was heavy. He started tickling my sides and stomach.

"Oh-My-God-Hayes-please-stop!" I said laughing, trying to catch my breath. He was laughing and I looked into his eyes, and he, mine. "You're getting close," I said softly, while he was leaning closer to me. "So are you," He replied, almost whispering now.

Before I knew it, we were both leaning in. A few centimeters away from each other. Hayes's eyes kept flickering towards my lips and I'm sure mine were too.

"KATIE! GET YOUR BUTT OVER HERE!" Carissa screamed through the wall, breaking our moment.

We both pulled away awkwardly, "That's my cue," I said giggling, trying to make things less uncomfortable. Hayes looked down and scratched his neck, his ears getting all red.

I hopped off the bed and walked to Carissa's room, trying to get what almost just happened through my mind.
