Cigarette Stained Lies

Chapter 5: This Isn't Going to Be Easy

“Is she awake?”

“I’m not sure… Should we wake her?”

“I think we should let her sleep a little bit more, she had a long plane ride yesterday.”

“You know, it’s really hard to sleep with you guys talking really loud!” I shouted throwing a pillow at one of the people who were talking.

“OOF!” I heard I male’s voice after I threw the pillow. Bingo. I thought while feeling accomplished.

“For a girl who just woke up, you have a really good arm,” said the mystery voice while I heard my mother chuckling in the background.

Wait a minute… Who is he? I thought to myself. Suddenly throwing the warm covers off of me, I found out who the mystery man was.

“Logan? What are you doing here?” I asked confusingly with my raspy voice. “I thought you were suppose to be here at two?”

“Umm honey? It’s two thirty.” My mother answered as Logan was laughing.

“Oh my God! I’m so sorry! I set my alarm to wake me up earlier; I must have slept through it… And sorry for hitting you with a pillow.” I said awkwardly as I saw the pillow on the floor right next to him. As I put my hands in my face, it was then that I realized that there was dried drool all over my face, and my hair was very disheveled. Wow, this is not a good way to start the day. I thought while trying to go back under my comforter ever so slowly.

“It’s okay, just get dressed right now and we can leave right away.” He told me while trying not to laugh at me.

“Sure, just leave so I can get ready.” My voice was muffled while hiding under my covers. I knew how ridiculous I looked right now, but I seriously didn’t want him to see how horrible I looked. After a moment of silence, they finally left my room to give me privacy.

“ARRRGGHH!” I screamed into my pillow before I got up to get ready. It took me about twenty minutes to brush my teeth, put on some light makeup (eyeliner, foundation, and a little bit of blush), did my hair, and get my outfit together.

As I put on a blue Hollister top, black shorts, and white Vans my mother knocked on the door telling me to hurry up. Sooner or later, I was finally ready for the day and left my room to meet up with Logan.

As soon as I reached the living room where I saw my mother and Logan conversing, they immediately stopped and he got up.

“Are you ready to go?” He said with that dreamy smile of his. Jess! What are you doing!?! You can’t think of him that way! He’s your boss’s son for God’s sake!

“Yeah, just let me get something to eat really quick.” I said while mentally trying to tell myself to shut the hell up. Before I took a step towards the kitchen, Logan grabbed my hand, which immediately sent sparks through my arm and butterflies in my stomach. Oh, God this is not going to be easy.

“Would you rather eat a something really quick, or would you want to eat at a restaurant while I’m taking you on a tour?”

“I rather the restaurant.” I said nervously.

“Okay good, lets leave now so it won’t get too crowded.”

“Sure, mom I won’t be back till later on. Bye” I called since my mother left the room, and I had no idea where she went.

“Bye.” She called back.

“So… where are we going to eat?” I asked as we got into his black Lamborghini Convertible. Wow… His dad spent a lot on this. I really hope he’s not one of those stuck up guys with a huge ego.

“A place that everyone loves and always have a good time.” He said with a smirk.

*            *            *            

“You took me to McDonalds?” I was really shocked about this. When he told me he was taking me to a restaurant, I thought he meant somewhere fancy, elegant, or a place where I would feel uncomfortable and under dress. I figured that for a famous music producer as a dad, he would be one of those people who always think he’s above everyone. Looks like he’s not as snobby as I thought.

“Yeah, I thought it would be fun, and everyone loves McDonalds. Is that a problem?” He questioned with a hint of worry in his eyes.

“No! Its perfect, I didn’t really thought… Just forget it.” I tried to end the conversation quickly because I knew I was now embarrassing myself. He didn’t say anything after that. It was really awkward after that until we got into the fast food place, which luckily was not crowded. 

“Hello, welcome to McDonalds. What would you like?” The cashier said in a little too peppy voice.

“Umm, can I have a bigmac combo with a medium fries and a coke.” I said while looking at the menu above.I’m not the type of girl who is always cautious about what they eat. I do not want to have an eating disorder or anything like that. I am proud of my size 2 slightly curvy body. I do not want to be a size zero or anything less.  I looked over to Logan to see what he was getting, but it seems like he was gazing off into space. 

“Logan… aren’t you going to order?” 

“Uhh, yeah. Can I have the same as her?” He asked giving his attention to the cashier. After a debate about who’s paying, he finally paid for the food and we went to go look for a table with the trays.

While eating, I finally got to know a little about Logan’s life. He told me about school and his friends. He seemed to be very popular, maybe too popular. I can kind of see why. He’s sweet, caring, and extremely ho- Whoa! Don’t even say what I think you’re about to say! You cannot say he’s hot! Remember, if you fall hard for him, there will be consequences. There WILL be consequences… no matter what. I tried to repeat that to myself until Logan took me out of my thoughts by getting up, and throwing our empty food trays away. He then reached for my hand and guided me out the restaurant.

“Where are we going?” I questioned as confusion took over my face.

“On your tour, don’t tell me you forgot about it.” He told me with a smirk on his face.

“No I didn’t forget! It just slipped my mine.”

“Yeah, right.” He said chuckling to himself with that amazing laugh of his.

Wow, this is going to be hard…
