"Dana, wake up! Wake up!" I heard a voice beneath the window sill.
I have fallen asleep on my black and white dalmatian furry carpet after hours of finishing my thesis due Friday. It was a crisp Wednesday morning as it started to become chilly, fall season is definitely on, as the wind gushes from the trees across my bedroom window."Dana!" That voice again, this time it feels near echoing on my ears. I have to open my eyes, but I'm too tired and needed more sleep.
"Dana!" As my vase broke and it woke me up. It was Jasper, my best friend. He was wearing a checkered black and white scarf grey shirt, a grey toque and a thick leather black jacket.
"Let me in, it's freezing in here, please?" He pleaded. I have forgotten to pull down my window and it's lock was stucked in the middle causing me to freeze but it doesn't have any effect of waking me up.
"You scream too much you broke my vase." I complained while trying to turn the lock to let him in.
"I didn't cause that, it was the wind!" Jasper exclaimed as he carefully entered my bedroom making sure not to step on the broken glass.
"Ugh! I just woke up, you're gonna make me clean? You're so gonna regret this you're walking to school today." I pointed at him in a bad mood.
"Alright. I'm sorry for waking you up, help me find a broom and dust pan I will do it for you, your highness." As he bowed in front of me sarcastically.
"You know you should learn to use the so-called front door with matching door bell? Ever heard of that?" I teased.
"Are you gonna make me clean or what?" He asked annoyingly.
"Well, good morning to you too, you're gonna have to replace that vase, a dozen of pink tulips included." I demanded as I started to head downstairs to get the dust pan and broom. He sat patiently on the edge of my bed smirking while watching me leave.
Jasper is the school's disc jockey, popular and extremely wealthy. Since his BMW got crashed last month his Dad took it to the family's mechanic and gave him a lesson to commute. I guess that's what happens when you text and drive. It has been the fourth car accident. First one was a Mercedes top down, second was a Porsche, third a Lexus SUV and now this BMW, this time his dad has had enough. You can say he's car grounded. Lol. That's why I am his ride.
He started sweeping my floor.
"Nobody ever asked me to do this, you know?" He smiled sheepishly staring at my legs, I was rummaging in my pink drawer, just wearing panties since I was getting ready for school as soon as I caught his eye. I threw my pink shawl at him that was hanging on my bed post straight to his face." Just get to work and hurry up." I scolded while putting on my knee high navy blue skirt, and long sleeve black v neck sweater. I hurriedly went to the bathroom to brush my teeth. Thank God I had a 30 minute bubble bath last night before doing my thesis, it took so much of my time.
He pretended to look underneath my bed for more broken glass and I caught him snooping underneath my skirt as I was facing my mirror standing up while putting a bit of make up on.
"You pervert! Stop it! If you weren't my best friend I wouldn't even allow you to get in my bedroom!" I stomped straight to my bathroom and locked the door.
"I'm sorry your highness, it won't happen again, if you stop tempting me." he chuckled.
"Excuse me? That is not how you treat a princess!" I yelled from inside the bathroom. What is wrong with him? He's suddenly giving me hints...we love each other like brother and sister, although I do have my own brother. It seems like raging hormones kicking in on him, I think I better go play matchmaker for him and a girl so he can stop bugging me. That is definitely my summer project.
"Hey, Dana, your face won't change in the mirror, would you mind speeding things up since we are going to be late?" he demandingly suggested while knocking on the bathroom door.
I annoyingly opened the door brushing past him as I put on my black strapped sandals.
"Excuse me? If you've got problems with my prepping habit feel free to leave and find your own lift.""It's ok, take as much time as you want." Obviously being sarcastic in his tone. As he started ogling in his phone.
"I knew you didn't have much of a choice." I opened the door was about to head downstairs, when...
"You coming, pretty boy?" I teased him purposely.
He smiled and went behind me and he cupped by skirt.
"Hey watch it!" I slapped his perverted hand. Laughing his ass off he followed me straight to the car.
