Chapter 17

*** Akali POV ***

I peek my head through the front door, glancing around I spot her keys still hanging on the wall. Treading slowly as I try to find her, turning the living room I spot her as she was watching the opening... probably the entire time.

"You still want to kick me out?" I ask with a weak chuckle.

Shaking her head, "You're a big girl with ambitions that I can't keep in check. No point getting angry at you as much as I did. I just expect you to do what you have to do and after that - I won't meddle with."

Then stepping forward, "But you sure as hell will be the first to say that you warned me, huh?"

She cracks a smile, "I don't have to repeat myself about the matter. Besides. Everything that was planned has been moved to Monday so feel free to do what you want to for the weekend."

Then leaning against the sofa's arms, with a furrowed brow, "You are having a very hard time convincing me that you aren't angry with me still."

She nods, "I am not trying to hide it," then tilting her head, her gaze trailing off, "We still have plans to meet up at Eve's place later tonight."

"Meaning the two of us were still supposed to do our thing a little while from now," then stating with a smile, "I am just going to meet up with you know who, then we can get going. Yeah?"

She tries to suppress a short as she shakes her head, "You know who... don't remind me. If you come home-"

"Crying then you don't want to hear shit about it."

She nods, "Do what you want to."

"Aye I think we both know I have been pretty good at doing that," then saying with a sigh, "I know what I am doing, the same way I knew what I was doing with True Damage. The same way you went with my gut when producing our EP. Just trust me, okay?"

"I trust you, I don't trust him. But I don't know what you see in him."

With a giggle, "Yeah. You don't," then gesturing with my hand, "I already parked my bike in the garage so try not to run it over on your way out. Just going to wait for him to pick me up."

"See you in a few then," she then returns her gaze back to herself.

I hover for a moment as the smile fades, my heart feels like it is sinking and fast. Why do I have to feel bad when you were the one that ended up starting the fight  Ahri.

***   ***   ***

I kind of want to see (Y/N) again... despite staying over I feel like the mood kind of ruined it. Though I got a lot from it - I gave Ahri some time to cool down and she probably thinks I stayed the night at JP's which is why she is still sour. 

I figured out Conrad isn't as bad as I thought him to be - just a friend trying desperately to be the best one he can be... I guess. Though all his questions were about whether or not I am using (Y/N)...

Feel the muscles in my face tense - as if I am in love with the attention I get. Though I guess I am a prime candidate... or does this come from a side where he still can't believe that I genuinely wanted to be his friend. In the end, dragging myself in my very own "101 steps to build confidence" and I have honestly no idea what I am doing.

Rubbing my temples I shake my head - I should just enjoy what I can. Sitting here thinking about it isn't going to do much. Then finally smiling to myself as I glance at my phone, at least I had fun despite all that. Spending most of the night asking silly questions of things I don't understand and watching him explain them.

I thought I'd fall asleep but seeing someone talk about what they love with that much passion...

"You aren't even listening to a word I am saying."

I lift my gaze towards him, "Oh sorry... had a quick crisis in my head that needed to be addressed."

Arching his brow at me, clearly not impressed, "Listen Akali, if I really bore you that much you can go ahead and say it."

"You bore me," I then glance around as I try to keep my self-satisfied snicker to myself.

"You at least going to tell me what you were thinking about?"

I shake my head, "Nope. But really, what were you saying?"

"What happened? Did you manage to sort out everything considering you ended up going back after she called you?" oh yeah... he probably thinks that I was talking to Ahri...

"She isn't kicking me out."

"Bummer."

Arching my brow, "Trying to get me on the streets asshole?"

"Just don't be for the streets is all you need to care about," then with a chuckle, "Besides you already know that I have a place for you to stay."

I nod slowly, "Right," then looking at the time, "But she doesn't hate me yet."

"Hates me."

"Can't begin to think why," then lifting myself, "Let's pay and leave, I gotta make a stop somewhere. Mind paying?"

"Did you leave your wallet at home?"

Shaking my head, "Not at home."

***   Normal POV   ***

I woke up early, I was hoping to catch her on her way out but I couldn't beat her to it. Then again... she must have left in a hurry because some of her shit is still here. I ended up just putting everything in her bag that she left here.

After cleaning up everything in the house as Conrad snores his ass off, I finish early so that I can just play games for a fucking change. So many things have just been keeping me away from what I really want to do and it is aggravating.

Is this addiction? Doesn't matter. It keeps my mind off from thinking about what could just make me depressed for the day anyway.

The doorbell rings as I drag my feet from my room to the front door in confusion. I open it revealing a face I didn't expect to see so soon, "Hey there."

"Hey..." I glance past her to see a sleek car, with someone watching the two of us from a distance.

She follows my gaze, as he calls out, "Sup?"

"Uh... yo."

She then asks, "I left my stuff here still."

"Oh yeah. It is still in my room... where you left it..." I then finally look at her as I notice her raised eyebrow.

"I'll go fetch it," she walks past me towards my room for the bag.

Left to stand face to face with this guy, he doesn't look very impressed. In fact, his face shifted the moment I mentioned very specifically where she left her stuff. Why did I feel the need to do that?

"You and Akali friends or something?"

"I guess you can say that," I return rather awkwardly, I then feel her hand against my back as he puts the housekey back in my hand.

"Thanks again, sorry for not saying goodbye."

I shake my head, "It's okay. I figured you were busy either way."

Sliding her hand around my waist, she gives me a quick hug before walking down the steps, "See ya, (Y/N)."

"Yeah..." I don't bother staying outside.

Shutting the door behind me, I clench both of my fists as I lean my back against the door. Is she...no I don't think so... god I hope not.
