That One Summer

Chapter 16

Kailah's POV

". . . . . . . 'You bitch! You stole my man', Drake shrieked backhanding Aurora's face. . . . . . .", I read aloud the brief description of a 'best seller' romance novel I saw on Kim's bed. WTH?

"What other choice do I have?", I mused to myself as I laid on Kim's bed. I flipped the pages and stopped at a random page. 'Drake's breath was caught in his throat as he felt Mike's lips on his neck. He groaned when something hot and wet met with his-'

*Uuuuurrr. . .* I heard my stomach growl stopping me from reading the rest of the sentence. Awwwe, and I was getting to the good part. Well, hunger prevails. It ALWAYS prevails.

I dropped the book on Kim's bed but not before folding 'the page'. "Don't go anywhere, Drake. I'll be right back", I chirped and I made my way to the cafeteria.

I pushed the doors to open it but it wouldn't budge. I tried pushing it again, harder, still no luck. "Don't mess with me, or my tummy at that!", I scolded the door, harshly. WHAT?! I treat things like the living. I'm that nice.

My rumbling stomach was losing its patience. Oh, hell no! You're messing with the wrong girl, doory! I backed away slowly. When I reached a desirable distance, I braced myself and power sprinted towards the door. My body impacted with the solid wood and still it didn't budge. My effort only sent my butt on the ground. OH SHIT! I quickly scoped the area for possible witnesses. PHEW! The coast was clear . . . well, if you'd consider Barney's face on the wall staring straight at me, then . . . What's he doing there anyway? I always knew he was a weird dinosau-

I was startled when I saw that the damn door was open and Ms. Food lady stood on the doorway holding it open looking at me like she had seen a cat wearing goggles and trunks ready for some beach time. OKAY! She looked at me like I was crazy. Damn door.

And this time, I finally noticed the 'PULL' sign on the door. WTF! Why didn't anybody tell me! "Um, I'm not sure if the ground is that comfortable to sit on but you might want to go inside and sit on, um, chairs.", the lady kindly spoke suggesting that I should check my mentality if it's still intact. I quickly stood up, "Uh, y-yeah, sure.", I stated, dusting the dirt on my bum as I moved to go inside. She just smiled politely. What a nice lady.

"Umm, do you have leftovers? I'm actually starving." I inquired sheepishly. "Oh dear, you can just go to the kitchen and see what you think you'd like to eat. It's just through that door.", she kindly instructed pointing to a door on the other side of the counter. "Thanks.", I replied, waving goodbye as I made my way to the door.

I heard faint screams as I was finding something to eat in the kitchen. I was rummaging through the fridge when the screams got louder and audible. It was becoming so loud so I peeked through the window and saw a boy running with a bunch of girls squealing. "IAAANNN!", they repeatedly shouted running after the boy who was actually Ian. Poor him.

So. . .I'm not a cruel person, people. And don't misunderstand. I let out a sigh, "Here we go", I said under my breath as I opened the back door of the kitchen, grabbed Ian's hand and yanked him inside, shutting the door quickly and locked it. For safety measures, people! This is not the scene where I jump him, murder then put him in a body bag and bury it where no one could find him. But that would be a fun idea, too. I'm so evil.

So, back to reality. I looked at Ian. He was panting real hard with his hands on his knees and his head bowed. He must have been running for quite some time since he was having labored breaths and he was sweating all over. On his forehead, I saw a bead of sweat trailing down his cheek, then to his jaw and then to his neck-- He looked so HOT, I wanted to lick his- F*CK! 'messy, boys, jerks, boys, pervy, boys', my mantra always worked! It better!

I exhaled, grabbed a glass and filled it with water. "Here", I broke the silence offering him the glass of water. He raised his head, looking at me then to the glass I was holding in front of him then back at me.

"It's not poisoned, Ian", I stated dryly with an eye roll. After a little over a minute, "So? Are you accepting it or not?", I asked a little bit irritated. He chuckled, "Sorry, just being cautious you know. Since you hate me and all.", he answered jokingly grabbing the glass making our hands touch. I felt like my hand was burnt from the contact.

An awkward silence settled between us. "So, uh, it must be hard being popular, huh?", I decided to break it. "Tell me something I don't know.", he replied then he sipped from the glass. After awhile, his eyes grew and he started choking hard realizing what he just said. .maybe, since I don't really know his reason for choking. He was still hacking and I was afraid he'd spill his guts out. "Uh, need help, dude?", I asked, concerned. "I didn't *cough* mean what I said earlier *cough* It's just that *cough* girls back at my school *cough* keep on telling me how hot I am-", he was, again, sent to a coughing fit as he said the hot part. "N-no *cough* not that I'm saying I'm hot, it's because. . .uh . .they just -sigh-, please kill me now-! NO, please don't, since you probably would do- Wait! Oh God! I'm so sorr-", I cut his stuttering mess by doubling over in laughter. I can't believe someone popular like him gets that flustered.

When I was finished with rolling on the floor while laughing, I looked at him and saw that he was smiling sheepishly with a hint of amusement.

Maybe. . .MAYBE, I should consider becoming his friend. Hmm. . . Oh Well, what's there to lose? I grabbed his hand and dragged him outside the kitchen through the backdoor. I could see shock in face. Wait til you see where I'm taking you, dude.
