One day in December

Chapter 4♡'･ᴗ･'♡

The rain  had in fact not stopped.
I awkwardly sat on Chester's bed as he went  to make some popcorn.

Yep. This is my life. Sitting on the bed of  the guy I hate, while he was getting popcorn for us to watch a movie!?!? Was this even me?!?

"Got some fresh popcorn"
Chester sat on the bed next to me, his muscles flexed under his compression shirt.

"Thanks."
I awkwardly took some popcorn as he turned on the movie.

"Titanic. Really?" I ask

"It's only the best film ever made!!" Chester expresses loudly.

I shake my head and can't help but laugh.

"You should do that more sunshine."

"Do what?" I said

"Smile"

I'm frozen in my seat. I look into his deep icy eyes

"It's beautiful."

I look away blushing.
"Just start the movie ice boy."
"Ice boy?" He asked confused
"Yea. You know...because you play hockey?"
" oh yea..." he turns and plays the movie.

I turn my attention to the movie as it started.

"Why titanic?" I ask
"Hmm?" He said confused
"Why titanic? Why is it your favorite?"
"Oh. My big sister showed it to me and I've grown close with it" he said
"Oh...Are you close with your sister?"
"Mhm" he says

Wait. Was I actually getting to know the boy I called obnoxious 5 seconds ago?? No. There's absolutely no wa-
"Do you have any siblings?" He asks as he interrupts my thoughts

"No"
"Only child."
"That must be nice." He says

"It's not as nice as you think..."

He pauses the movie and turns to face me, also attempting to make eye contact with me.

"How come?" He asks as if he was actually interested in getting to know me. Was he?

"Well with my parents..expectations are super high. You can't just blame something on someone when there's no one to blame" I confess.

"Damn...you must be a fighter." He says

"I mean...I guess so." She says.

"Now unpause the movie ice boy"

As I say to unpause it he does just that. I eat some popcorn as the movie starts up...
