It's weird enough to wake up to someone in your bed but it is extremely weird when you are tangled together and the other person is still sleeping. I slowly untangle from Mitch as to Not wake him up. I grab my phone an head into the bathroom. It's a really uniform habit I have every time I wake up I go into the bathroom and brush my teeth, clean my face, then go pee. Yup I'm cool. I finish up in the bathroom and go back to my room to find a slightly awake Mitch.
"Well good morning sleepy head" I joke
"What time is it?" He grumbles
"Eight O clock"
"Eight! Why are you up so early it is a Saturday"
"I don't know... Are you hungry?"
"Yeah a little"
"Ok let me change and I'll make us some pancakes or something"
"Alright... Oh where is your restroom?"
I show him the restroom and then go back to my room to change.
"Al hurry up I need the shower" I hear Ike yell from the hallway.
Fuck my life!
I poke my head out of room and see him leaning against the wall opposite I the bathroom door with a towel over his shoulder and his phone in his hand.
"Umm Ike... I have a friend over" I say nonchalantly
"Ugh whatever! They need to hurry"
"Don't be so rude" I say pushing past him to get to the kitchen. "Oh do you want pancakes"
"No I'm suppose to meet up with someone but if. your stupid friend doesn't hurry I'm going to be late"
Whatever.
I continue on my merry little way to make the pancakes.
After about fifteen minutes Mitch walks into the kitchen.
"So umm i don't know your brother was home"
"Neither did I" I meh smile
"It was awkward but the pancakes smell good"
"It won't be as awkward as the conversation I am going to have with my mom when she finds out what time I got home oh and They are almost done"
"How does your mom know what time you got home she was sleeping"
"Our security system keeps a log of when the front and back doors are open"
"Oh I'm sorry"
"It's honestly not your fault and plus she won't tell me anything until she gets home from work"
"Oh" he states as he looks down at his phone.
"So how many pancakes do you want?" I ask trying to get rid of the somber atmosphere.
"Oh umm three please"
"ok" I say putting a plate infront of him and sitting down next to him with my plate in front of me. We talk about school and our families yeah boring stud and when we finish Mitch leaves and I clean the kitchen.
It's a petty boring day...
But I can't seem to shake the feeling of our legs intertwined and our bodies so close... I don't like him.... Do I? I can't like him doesn't that chick from the whole initiation group like him what was her name again... Jada? She likes him and I don't know how long she has liked hi but I know it has to have been longer than I've been living next door to him. Oh my fucking cantaloupe I slept with a boy! I can't wait to tell Jess...fuck my mom is home....
"ALLY MARIE GET YOUR ASS DOWN HERE RIGHT NOW!"
I quickly fumble down the hallway... I already know what she is going to say... It will probably go something like... 4 four am! What the fuck were you doing out at four in the morning? Who were you doing drugs with did you contract an std? I didn't not bring us out here so you can fuck around!
"Yes ma'am"
"FOUR IN THE MORING! WHAT THE FUCK WERE YOU DOING THAT WAS SO SPECIAL THAT YOU WERE OUT UNTIL FOUR?!? HUH! I DID NOT MOVE US HERE SO YOU COULD FUCK UP YOUR LIFE! YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED OUT OF THIS HOUSE FOR A MONTH YOUNG LADY!"
"But mom that's not-"
"I DONT CARE WHAT YOU HAVE TO SAY...I WILL NOT LET YOU SET A BAD EXAMPLE FOR IKE YOU SHOULD KNOW BETTER THAN COMING HOME AT FUCKING FOUR AM!"
