Hate at First Sight

Chapter 40

Lea's P.O.V.:

I woke up the next morning and checked my phone. I didn't have any texts or missed calls so that's good.

I turned over and noticed I was practically naked. I only had a thin blanket around me. I remembered the events from last night. I lost my virginity to Ed. I smiled at the thought and snuggled closer into Ed's chest. He pulled me closer and mumbled a 'good morning' with his raspy voice.

I kissed his bare chest and got out of bed putting on one of his shirts. I went downstairs and went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast. Minutes later Ed walked downstairs in nothing but sweats. He looked damn fine. I smiled and kissed his cheek, giving him a plate of pancakes with nutella.

"I'm going horseback riding again today, wanna come?" I asked.

"No, can't babe, sorry, I have practise," he said and pecked my lips.

"Oh okay, maybe I'll come by later," I smiled. I went upstairs and got dressed. I applied a little make up and headed outside.

When I arrived at the place I spotted Ben. I walked over. "Hey, Ben," I said carefully.

He looked at me. "Oh, it's you. I thought you were Alice," he said. Ouch.

I sighed. "What did she do to you?" I asked.

"She kissed my best mate in front of me," he sighed. "Why? Did she do anything to you?" He asked.

I nodded, "She made out with my boyfriend. He thought she was me," I looked down.

"Jesus," he said, "why would she do that to us, especially to you."

I shrugged, "Beats me," I said and walked over to my horse. I put the sadle on the back of the horse and finished the horse before climbing on the back of the horse. "I'm really sorry for everything, Ben. I never knew she could be so cruel," I said.

He waved it off and climbed on his horse. "Don't worry about it. What do you say we do a little race?" He grinned.

I giggled. "Sure!" I said and started to run with my horse.

"Hey! That's unfair!" Ben shouted from behind me and he quickly caught up to me. Ugh. Him and his fast horse.

After two minutes we decided to just go slow and walk through the park. It was amazing weather which gave Ben and I good time to catch up.

"I'm going to watch Ed practise, by the way, wanna come with me?" I asked.

"Sure! What does he do again?" He chuckled.

"He plays basketball," I smiled and we headed back to the stables.

Ten minutes later we arrived at the basketball field and Ben and I sat on the bleachers. I saw Ed training with his teammates and the cheerleaders were practising a couple of feet further down the field.

"How long does Ed do this?" Ben asked.

"Erm, I think about 4 years? 3 or 4, yeah," I smiled.

"That's pretty awesome," Ben said.

I nodded and smiled. This was going to be a great day and I already forgot about Alice.
