The Player Swap Up

Chapter 25

So I figured I'd tell you guys what's been going on with me.

My best friend moved away from me. And isn't going to our school anymore.

We are going to be juniors. And she won't be there. It's not too far away but it's another state.

And I'm worried because not a lot of girls like me at my school because they are threatened by me and how I don't follow the crowd and how much of an individual I am.

I am a strong person. I can stand by myself. But I don't know what I'm going to do without her.

After dinner that day I headed upstairs and showered. I came out dressed and ready for bed. Cris was sitting on the bed on his phone.

I forgot we were sharing a room.

"Hey.. I'm sorry. I forgot to tell you about the room situation... I was going to text you but then Junior had come in and distracted me.." He started

I shook my head "No biggie. A warning would've been nice though." I chuckled.

"Right. Okay, Junior can sleep with me if you want. If you are uncomfortable with this."

"I'm good." I said touching his arm.

"You're sure?"

"I'm sure."

It was our  fourth day in paradise. I was going to go shopping with a few of the girls.

I looked in the mirror and did my makeup. I was wearing a pair of white shorts and a sea blue tank top to show off the tan I had acquired.

Not like it's anything monumental, like Cristiano tanning like toast! He puts on SPF 50 and will get darker than any other human with SPF 15. I don't understand it, so don't ask me.

I finished in the bathroom and headed downstairs. Junior was sitting at the table with a few of the other kids and Cristiano was making breakfast for them.

"Do you need help?" I asked

Cris looked over his shoulder and smiled "If you're offering."

I went over and started helping him, he was making French toast.

"You hungry?" He asked nudging me lightly.

"For French toast? Duh." I laughed

Cristiano just smiled and went to go deliver a few plates while I watched the bread on the stove. He returned a few moment after and took over the stove while I dipped the bread in the egg mix.

"You're going with the girls this morning?" Cristiano asked

I nodded "Yup."

I saw him bite his lip. "When do you think you'll be back?"

I shrugged and looked at the clock. It's only eight. "I don't know... maybe by eleven. Hopefully, I don't want to spend all day there."

"Okay good." He said

"What's good?"

Cristiano shook his head "Nothing nevermind. Breakfast malady." He set two plates next to each other on the table.

We sat down with the kids and ate breakfast until Sara told me they were ready to go. "I'll see you in a bit."

I gave Cris a peck on the lips. "I'll bring you back something." I whispered in Junior's ear.
