One Temptation

Spill the Tea Bestie (Chapter 4)

I woke up at eight in the morning. I had a massive headache, I rolled out of bed and made my way into the bathroom.

"Madi, come eat breakfast." Mum yelled at me from the kitchen.

I took in a deep breath and went downstairs, where mum was waiting for me, she looked concerned. She was probably going to ask me about what happened last night. I already had so much on my mind from yesterday, I seriously didn't need more thoughts.

"Madi what happened yesterday? You went upstairs so suddenly, I had to send Aiden after you to make sure you didn't do something stupid."

My thoughts were right.

I tried my luck with lying out of it, "Nothing happened, I was very tired and full, so I just figured I'd go upstairs and rest."

"If I'm being very honest with you Madi, your eighteen years old and you still don't know how to lie. I saw the way you looked at the girl, you were perfectly fine before she showed up." Mum spoke.

There goes my luck at lying, "Mum, I just don't like her, she's annoying and plus I was having a bad day."

Now I wasn't lying there, she was very annoying and, and I did have an awful day yesterday.

Mum just looked at me like she didn't believe a word I said, which I'm pretty sure she didn't.

Thankfully she didn't push the conversation and further from there, which I'm so thankful she didn't.

She pulled me into a hug, my head rested on her shoulder as she rubbed my back, she smelt like sweet strawberries.

"Just stay safe honey, also know your dad was worried about you yesterday." She said quietly.

"I'm always safe, and don't worry."

She pulled back and just nodded.

"I have to go meet up with some friends today, I will maybe be late, but I'll see you later today." I said while stuffing breakfast in my mouth.

"I'm not going to be home today Madi, me and your dad have a business trip, Aiden is staying at a friends house. So I'll see you soon honey, stay safe." She said hesitantly grabbing the keys to the car.

"Always am." I smiled.

A business trip. They always told us like a week in advance, and mum is just telling me.

My dad walked into the kitchen, and I smiled an 'I'm okay' smile at him. I guess he understood because he just nodded back with a smile.

Mum and Dad bid their goodbyes to me and were out the door.

Now I do meet up with some friends. Let's start with Jake first.

*********

I headed upstairs to my room and put on some black shorts and a hoodie. I went on my phone and decided to text Jake first since I had to get a lot of things through him.

Me: Hey im wondering if your up to meet up some time today? let me know alr

Jake: actually yes 

Me: Sounds good bestie what time?

Jake: Umm how about at 10 at the plaza? I'm free then also is it chill if Cole comes along hes already with me

Me : Yea all good, cya then bestie booooo.

Jake: ew ok

Now all I really had to do was talk to Jake, without trying to be awkward. Me and Jake were really good friends, I just wish nothing ruins our friendship now.
