Body on ice

Chapter 11

You're my person. You're my everything.

"You- what?" I say with a confused look on my face. Oliver softly laughs and ruffles his hair. "I know it sounds weird, I just wanted to ask." He laughs again at the face I give him. "And don't worry, I'm sober now. Mostly" he winks at the end. I laugh and kiss him softly. "You're such a doll. I would love for you to be my boyfriend" I chuckle. He smiles into our kiss.

Before either of us can pull away Oscar jumps on my lap and barks at Oliver. "Jeez you fatty" his paw was pinching my thigh. "I'm sorry Oliver he's just getting protective. After all you are my first boyfriend." I chuckle and tuck my hair behind my ear. He gives me a shocked look that he wasn't hiding really well. "Hopefully Oscar knows that I'll treat you well" Oliver smiles at me.

I lay down in bed as he follows beside me. We stay up for a couple hours talking and watching tv. I smile at him. "Goodnight Ace." He replies in a whisper, "goodnight sweetheart." He seals our night with a kiss as we both fall asleep.

I wake up with a chiseled arm wrapped around my waist. I look over to Oliver and his face was smushed into the pillow and his hair was all tangled. I kiss his head softly as I get out of bed, avoiding waking him up.

I start getting ready for school as I get a few texts from Dorian.

Hey Len imma head over in 5
Is Nick home?
Nvm he just texted me
Tell him to stop obsessing over me

I laugh lightly as I read his texts. I soon hear Nick sprint downstairs to wait for Dorian.

Dorians POV

I laugh at my texts with Lena as I knock on the Einar house door. I honestly didn't need to knock. They always left their door unlocked and if they didn't, I knew they hid their house key in the pocket of their garden gnomes pants. The Einar family was so full or character. I loved them so much. They were the family I never had.

Nick opens the door so quickly. I loved his energy. He was my best friend and I'm surprised he stayed by my side for so long. His hair bounced when he walked, his orange locks shined in the morning sun. He looked so good in the morning, that's probably the reason why Elva loved coming in the morning.

Everyone else was so clueless of it but I'm dead certain that she had the biggest crush on him since she laid eyes on him.

"Can you get Len, she's upstairs in her room" Nick says, his head was shoved in the fridge trying to find something for breakfast.

I walk upstairs and knock on Lena's door. It was cracked open. "Len?" I quietly say. I wasn't sure if she was still asleep or not. I walk inside. I was rudely met with Oliver. He sat on her bed, he was in his uniform but a pile of the clothes he wore yesterday sat beside him. "Hey" I grumble. He gives me a half assed smile. "What are you doing here." I cross my arms and lean against the door, waiting for his response. "I should be asking you the same thing Dorian" Oliver responds coldly, he felt so distant for being so close to me. I wait for his answer my arms still crossed and my patience wearing out. He sighs and runs a hand through his hair, "I'm her boyfriend."

Those words rung through my head. He's got to be lying. He smiles coyly. I swear he was enjoying my reaction. I don't know why I was getting so pissed. No, I lied. I did know. And this was fucking bullshit. "Where's Len" I say softly. I didn't want to talk to him anymore. "The bathroom" he says as he goes back on his phone.

I quickly leave her room and head to the washroom. She left the door open as she brushed her teeth. "Len why didn't you tell me" I say calmly. My feeling we're all jumbled up and I didn't want it ruining my day. He mumbles something while she's brushing her teeth. "It all happened last night." I made out from what she said. "Well you could've texted me" I retort. She spits out the toothpaste and wipes her mouth. "I didn't think to tell you, I was going to tell you this morning" she checks her reflection to make sure she's clean. She turns to me once I'm done. "I'm sorry I didn't think you would take it to heart." She hugs me shortly.

Within those short few seconds I knew I just wanted to linger there and hold her for a little longer. She was my safe space. I would travel to the moon and back for her happiness. And I knew she was happy the moment Oliver came into the picture. And I was going to leave it at that.
