Ms. Cantrall

Chapter 5

"Hi Ky, who's your friend?" Ruby smirks. "Uh, this is Malia...." She helps her down off the counter. Malia blushes as she looks away. "Um, Malia, these are my friends Ruby and Mel." They both wave. "Hello," Ruby stands and walks up to Malia. "It's nice to meet you, I've heard nothing about you." She smiles as Mel tries not to laugh.

Malia blushes more. "Nice to meet you too. Um, i think I'm gonna use the restroom real quick." She nods and disappears into the hallway. "So, when were you gonna tell us about her?" Ruby smirks. Kylie sighs. "I was gonna tell you but you were away." "A text would have been fine, you know?" Mel smirks. "This isn't exactly something you tell someone over text." Ruby shrugs. "Fair enough, i mean, we have some news too but we wanted to wait till we got back." Kylie looks at them. "News what news?" Ruby smiles and slowly lifts her left hand, a diamond engagement ring shining in the light. "Oh my god!" Kylie smiles. "Congrats guys!" She hugs them both. "Thanks, Ky. We wanted you to be the first one to know, after our parents of course." Ruby scoffs. "Oh yeah, my mom's already pestering me about grandkids, as if she doesn't have three other kids to pester about it. Especially Nadia, since she's the oldest."

"Yeah, but you're the only one that's actually with someone. All your siblings are single." Kylie laughs. Ruby sighs. "I swear, i should set them all up with someone." Malia comes back from the restroom. "Uh, hi." She waves awkwardly. "Hi, I'm Ruby." She shakes her hand. "This is my fiance, Mel." "Hey." Kylie starts getting nervous. "So, what are you doing here? I thought you were on some modelling gig?"

"Oh girl, you know I'm no model." Ruby laughs. "Could've fooled me." Mel mumbles. Ruby glances back at her with a smile. "Anyways, I'm promoting some new clubs here in town. You should come!" Ruby smiles. "Oh, uh....i mean...." She glances at Malia, who nods. "Yeah, we'd love to." "Great! We're gonna head back to our place to get ready, we'll come pick you guys up at 6?" Kylie nods. "Sure." The young couple leave as the room is filled with awkward silence between the two. "I swear i had no idea they were here. They both have a key to this place. Which now that i think about it, I'm really starting to regret giving them one." Malia laughs as she wraps her arms around her waist. "They seem like great friends and a cute couple." Kylie nods. "They are, to both, but i think we're cuter." She smiles. Malia nods. "We are definitely cuter." They both lean in for a soft kiss. They stay like that for a moment before Malia pulls away. "We should start getting ready."

Malia walks back to campus and to her dorm. She looks in her closet for something to wear when the door opens. "Damn it." She sighs and turns around. "I was starting to think you dropped out. Where've you been?" "Uh, nowhere." "Mhmm, well where are you off to now?" Morgan notices her rummaging through her closet for something to wear. "I was gonna go to the club with some friends." Technically she didn't lie. "Damn, ok. TFTI." Morgan rolls her eyes. She sighs as she turns to her. "You wanna come with? You can meet me there or something?" She knows she shouldn't but she felt guilty. She hasn't really hung out with Morgan ever since she started dating Kylie. She felt like one of those girls back in junior high that gets a boyfriend and completely forgets she had friends.

Morgan stares at her for a second. "Fine, I'll meet you there, let me get ready first." Malia squeals and hugs her tight. "Great! I'll text you which club it is, you have a fake right?" Morgan looks at her offended. "It's like you don't even know me." She jokes. They laugh before Malia heads back to Kylie's while Morgan changes. She knocks on the door and waits. After a few seconds, she's greeted by Ruby. "Ooh girl! Daamn, oook!" Malia blushes. "Shuush up!" Ruby moves aside to let her in. "Ky's almost done, i hope." She jokes. Mel goes and bangs on the door. "Ky! Your girls here! Hurry the fuck up!" "I'm coming!" "I didn't need to hear that! What you do in your private time is between you and Lia!" Mel smirks. "Shut up!" The door opens as Kylie smacks her arm. "Like you and Ruby are any better?"

They go to the club and head to the bar as Malia silently thanks the gods for fake id's. They all grab shots before moving to the dance floor. Malia can't help but glance around. Morgan said she was coming, now she just has to avoid being seen with Kylie. "Another round of shots, guys?!" Ruby shouts. "Hell yeah!" Kylie joins her at the bar. "One round of gummy bear shots!" "Ruby, you're allergic to sugar!" Mel shouts. "So?!" Mel talks to the bartender. After he goes to the back and comes back with sugar free gummy bears, the rounds begin. "Kylie?!" She turns to her. "What's up?!" "Um, i should tell you, i invited Morgan out tonight. I just felt bad cause we haven't really spoken much since you and i started dating." Kylie nods. "Ok, I'll try and get them to leave before she does." Malia smiles. "Thanks, I'm sorry again." Kylie shakes her head. "No, no. It's fine! You have fun, spend time with your roommate!" Malia kisses her cheek. "I'll find you after ok?! Text me!" Kylie nods. "I will."

Morgan walks in about half an hour later and Malia spots her in the crowd. "Morgan!" "Malia! Thanks for inviting me!" They grab a few shots and head to the dance floor. After a few songs, Morgan excuses herself to the restroom. Malia nods and keeps dancing until she feels arms wrap around her. She turns around, ready to back hand someone when she sees it's only Kylie. "Whoa! Easy there! Didn't realize you were into rough play!" Malia rolls her eyes and smacks her arm. "You scared me!" Kylie laughs. "Sorry! Just wanted to let you know, you look beautiful tonight!" She winks before walking away. Malia blushes. Kylie walks up to the bar and orders water. Better slow down right about now. "Ms. Cantrall?!" She turns around at the sound of her name. "Amber! What are you doing here?!" "Funny running into you here! Maybe it was fate!" She laughs. "Can i just say, you look really good tonight." She smirks. "Um, thanks Amber. I hope you're not out clubbing instead of doing your essay that i assigned you?!" She asks. Amber laughs. "Of course not, wouldn't want to disappoint my favorite teacher!" She leans in before Malia bumps into her from behind, spilling her drink all over herself. "Oh my god! I'm so sorry, i didn't see you!....Amber?! Is that you?!....Ms. Cantrall! Hi!" She smiles.

"Oh hello Ms. Baker! It's nice to see you. Did you two show up together?!" She asks, already knowing the answer. "Oh no." "Hell no!" Amber shouts. "Ugh! Out of my way idiots!" She storms off into the crowd. They wait a few seconds before bursting out laughing. "You were so bad! What did you do that for?!" Kylie asks her. "What? She was all over you! I wasn't gonna take that, Ms. Cantrall." She smirks. "Oh no? And what were you gonna do about it, Ms. Baker?" Kylie bites her lip. "I think you know...." Their lips meet in a heat kiss. Blame the alcohol. "Ms. Cantrall?!" They both freeze and turn. "Malia?!" "Morgan....i can explain...." She shakes her head and runs out. "Morgan, wait! Morgan!" Malia chases after her.
