Finding 4

Chapter 19

Yall I need him SO BAD this is not funny at all. I'm so down bad someone help me.

Marley

We walk into my house, and go straight to the kitchen. After the game, or match as they call it, we decided that we wanted to have a bonfire, and since my dad and Elijah aren't home, we decided on here.

"What's going on with you and Callum?" Tierny asks me as she pours a mix of alcohol into several red cups.

"What?" I lean against the counter. "Nothings going on between us."

"Really?" She cocks a brow at me. "Because your eyes tell a different story."

"Our eyes don't tell any story." I tilt my chin at her. "If they tell anything, it's that we hate each other."

She snorts "Yeah okay."

"What?"

"Marley it's so obvious. Everyone around you can see it. You two do not hate each other." She looks at me "not anymore at least."

"Okay well we aren't friends either." I shrug and cross my arms.

"Yeah no duh," she smiles as she hands me two of the drinks. "Now go give him a drink."

"What? I'm not bringing him a drink-" she starts to walk away "Tierny! You know how those boys are!"

She disappears out the door and I groan loudly, tossing my head back.

Maybe I should poison it. I'm sure they have some sort of bug killer or something around here somewhere.

"Looking for ways to kill me?" Callum's accent fills the room as he walks in.

I spin around to face him, and damn does he look good in that tan quarter zip, and jeans. His silver chain hangs outside of it, and his hair is still messy from his game.

Someone save me.

I've found the enemy attractive.

I'm a traitor to my own body!

"Uh..."

He snickers "I'm just messing with ya."

Callum reaches forward and takes the drink from my hand, but I just keep my eyes on him, not being able to look away.

Damnit Marley, do something.

His hand grazes mine and my eyes shoot down to my now empty fist.

"Did someone cut your tongue off?" He steps forward and uses his pointer finger and thumb to pinch my chin. He pulls my mouth open and looks inside. "Nope still there."

Holy mother of God.

My eyes find his again, and we just sit there, staring. I can feel my heart rate pick up as he swallows harshly, his Adam's apple bobbing as he does. I'm so focused on that, I don't even realize he's still holding my chin. When his eyes fall down to my lips, my stomach gets all empty...but in a good way?

I never felt this way with Mason.

I don't know what's good and what's bad.

The back door slides open and Brody sticks his head in "Hey can I-"

We both look over at him, Callum's hand quickly falling from my face as we both basically jump away from each other. After a while of staring at us, Brody smirks, and steps inside, closing the door behind him.

"You guys are uh," Brody crosses his arms and leans against the doorframe. "Being...safe, yeah?"

"Oh my God," I facepalm. "Get out."
