The Lovable Jerk (boyxboy)

Chapter 12

"Why didn't you stop me!" I shrieked, backing away from Westin.

Apparently I spent the whole night cuddling him and he did not attempt to stop me. The least he could have done was kick me out of bed but no, he let me embarrass myself while I was asleep.

I glared at him as I heard a chuckle escape his lips. Does he even realise how terrifying it is to wake up hugging someone who is just staring at you?!

Oh my God, I was beyond embarrassed and he was acting like this was a joke.

"You looked like you were enjoying yourself." He chuckled and I roughly pushed his chest, annoyed.

Did he just act cocky with me?

I mean sure I woke up smiling but I doubt he was the cause...Okay, fine he might have partly been the cause since I woke up basically cuddling him. Oh, Who am I kidding it was obvious I enjoyed it which is what made it even more embarassing but of course I wasn't about to own up to that fact.

"Judging from the boner you tried to hide, seems like you were enjoying yourself too." I remarked with a smirk.

"I never said I wasn't, cupcake." He said, looking smug.

Just when I thought I won this stupid little argument or misunderstanding or whatever this was, he goes and says that?! And why in the world did he call me cupcake?! What in the world did that even mean? Was it a good or bad thing?

That did not sound like a compliment then again nothing sounded like a compliment from yours truly, Westin.

"Pervert!" I blurted out, without thinking and suddenly his playful mannerism stopped and his mood darkened.

With a frown he stared down at me and in a serious, deep voice he stated, "Don't you ever call me that again."

Woah, I didn't expect him to act this way. I thought he was going to be cocky or just smirk to annoy me but it seems that my comment really hit him on the wrong spot.

"Westin, honey, breakfast is ready. Do you know where..." Jeremy paused at the door when his son groaned passing him. "Westin?" He called and Westin bluntly ignored him and continued walking away.

This was my fault I caused a conflict between him and his dad. I felt horrible and of course his dad looked at me for an answer.

I broke eye contact between us and looked down. What was I going to tell him?

How about the truth?

What was the truth anyway? Did I offend him? I thought he'd answer my out burst go with a simple smirk or cocky comment that's all.

"I'm sorry, Mr Jeremy...I think I offended Westin and now he is in a bad mood." I explained, scratching the back of neck, a nervous habit I developed from my dad according to mom.

"First of all, please call me Jeremy no need to add the Mr... and second what did you say to him?" He asked, concerned.

"I called him a pervert." I told him, a little confused. "But I didn't actually mean it." I whispered the last part.

"Oh...oh...Okay, I'm going to talking to him and this might take a while...Breakfast is ready, please go eat with the others." He said, following Westin, I guess.

He did not look even a bit surprised. It's like as soon as I said pervert he understood everything. I hope I didn't bring back bad memories. I knew staying here was a bad idea.

Why the hell do I have to jinx everything?!

I grabbed my clothes and headed to bathroom, Westin showed me last night when he were walking to his room. I should change and leave as soon as possible but... I should bath first.
