💞Crystal's POV💞
"Lucas, w-what are you doing here?" I asked, confused as ever.
How did he even get in here? The only one who has keys to this place is Laura and our parents. Did he break in here? Why would he? What's the objective? Is he here to poison me, kidnap me, or worse even murder me?
"Okay, chill, I don't know what your thinking but your face is saying a lot right now"
I snapped out of my thoughts and saw him give me a slight smile.
"What are you doing here?" I ask.
"Ouch, you're not even saying thank you to me for coming all the way here to take care of you" He said, placing his hand on his heart.
"What are you talking about?"
"Well, I was going to go home after school, when Laura came to me and asked if I could stay with you 'cause she needed to take extra classes. And since I didn't have anything better to do I just agreed and that's why I'm here" He said. I just nodded in response and made a mental note to thank and hit Laura. A thank you for thinking about me but a hit to the head to correct some circuits in that brain of hers so she will be reminded not to give such a heart attack.
I went to the cupboard and tried to get a glass but it was too far to reach, even though I was an average height the cupboard was still taller than me. I felt a hard chest behind my back, a breath hit my neck and a hand bigger than mine reached for the glass. I retracted my hand fast and turned around from the shock. Now you could say that we were stuck in a very weird position. By that I mean I was being trapped between the counter and Lucas while his arm was still holding up the glass.
I noticed his emerald eyes twinkled and I unknowingly licked my lips. I saw a little blush spring up on his face as he looked at my lips. Then I suddenly remembered a scene like this that I read on Wattpad. I immediately turned my face to the side and he broke from his trance and cleared his throat. He helped me get water and I thanked him as he went back to cooking.
A few minutes later, I was served chicken soup. I made my way to the dining table and sat down.
"Hmm, It's really good" I smiled, as I tasted it.
"Thanks" he said with a giggle.
"How are you this good at cooking, you're rich right? Don't you have maids to cook for you?" I asked, continuing to enjoy my meal
"I do, but growing up the only thing I was able to do was learn how to act around society. When it was mealtime, that was the only time I was able to enjoy peace. One day I decided to walk around the estate and ran into our chef's kid. He was nice and he invited me to play with him. We soon became close and I would visit the kitchen just to spend some time with him. I watched and learned some of the art of cooking from his parents. My parents never found out and I made sure to keep a secret from Amber as well. Later on, he and his family moved away and I haven't been able to reach him ever since. But before he left his dad gave me his cookbook, I practiced and slowly as time passed on became better and better. So whenever I felt bored I would just go into the kitchen and experiment on some dishes" He said, with a small weak smile.
I smiled back and soon finished my meal. He offered to help me wash the dishes but I refused and he insisted so now we both wash the dishes and have a little soap war with each other. I was victorious as I turned his face into a soapy Mona Lisa painting. We, later on, decided to play some games on the play station and he was crushing me as if I was a fly.
"That's not fair" I said, as I took a pillow and threw it at him.
"I won fair and square you're just a sour loser" He said and he caught the pillow effortlessly.
I rolled my eyes and he just laughed at me. We went on to play a while longer and I didn't know when I fell asleep.
The next morning I found myself on my bed all tucked in. I sat on my bed feeling a bit better and noticed Laura sitting on my couch with her computer on her lap. She was looking at me with a smirk and I knew that today had to be a teasing day because whenever you see Laura with a smirk like that in the morning you should prepare yourself for a day filled with teasing. I remember that I had my headphones charged and tried looking for them in my nightstand drawer.
"Looking for this" Laura said, waving my headphones in front of me.
I gasped as she put it back next to her
"My love, you know I'm always one step ahead of you, right?" She said, giggling evilly.
"Don't even bother giving me that look Crystie, even if you got your hands on the headphones I already drained the batteries so it's dead. Oh, and I hid the charger and all the other earplugs so... say your prayers honey" she smiled as I scowled at her.
I sighed and mentally prayed that someone would come and save me. "Okay, so what's the breaking news?" I said.
Lawyer Laura got out her phone and started giggling, she was starting to give me goosebumps.
"Exhibit A" Laura said, as she showed me her phone
My eyes widened in shock as I saw a picture of me and Lucas in that weird position last night.
"Shh, don't say anything just yet" Laura said, placing her finger on her lips. As if she knew that I was about to rain down an explanation.
"Exhibit B" she said, as she swiped through her phone and pulled out another picture. I choked on my saliva as I saw a picture of me in Lucas's arms, asleep, and he was smiling at me.
"Does the accused have anything to say to the bedroom court?" Laura said as she crossed her arms.
"What the hell?!" I exclaimed
"Well, why didn't you tell me that you and Lucas were a thing?" Laura said, glaring at me
"We're not a thing!"
"You sure about that, cause the smile the guy gave you in this picture doesn't seem to be telling lies" She said, glancing at the picture and then at me.
"Laura, we're not a thing and how in the world did you get those photos?"
"Honey, it seems you forgot that I'm a ninja. Remember how I was able to snatch your things without you not knowing? Ninjago inspired me as a kid." she said, rolling her eyes
"Oh for Pete's sake!" I said taking a pillow and burying my face in it.
"Don't oh for Pete's sake me, this is a serious matter. I might get a brother-in-law and a psychopathic sister-in-law. we need to start strategizing." Laura said, getting a pen and a piece of paper.
"Absolutely not with a big fat N, I'm not crossing the line over being single and no one is going to make me" I said crossing my arms.
"Keep lying to yourself. The day he gives in and kisses you make sure I'm the first to know. I need to let the wedding planner know that the show will go on" She said winking at me.
I blushed when she said that but then remembered
"I will only after I see you walk to the altar and meet Edward, don't worry I'll be the priest."I said, winking back at her and smirking. She turned into a red tomato and I laughed at her reaction.
We conversed a little and made some small jokes about each other.
"Oh, yeah before I forget. Nora invited us" Laura said, getting all excited.
"To what?" I asked, smiling at her excitement.
"It's gonna be her birthday soon and she's going to host a party" She said and started to dance around my room.
"Oh, yeah. That's true" I said remembering what Nora said the last time we met.
"Sis, I'm picking out your dress this time" Laura said, facing me as she continued to dance.
"Sure, just don't give me something revealing." I said
"Girl, even without revealing, guys are going to drool over you. I hope Lucas knows how to fight. Cause I believe that he is going to be busy." she said smirking at me
"Hmm, I too hope that Edward can fight" I said, as Laura turned to me and stuck out her tongue, and continued to dance.
