The Bad Boy, The Bet & Me

Chapter 14: The Return of the Prank War & 'You smell like chicken'

''Quit touching me.''

I swear, I feel like my head is going to explode. Make space for the nasty, gruesome explosion. Of course Zac would, stop whatever he was doing, get a front-row ticket, supplied with popcorn and drinks just to see my head exploding.

I would never want to be in a life and death situation with him.

Again, a finger pokes me in the side. ''Zac, I swear, I will break your finger.'' He chuckles, casually, throws his arm around my shoulders. I turn to look at him with a annoyed expression. ''Are you serious? I said to stop touching me, and what do you do? Argh, just,-''

''Come on Mads, lighten up. How are you in a mad mood when your'e going to be spending 3 weeks with me? Any other girl would happily jump on my bones, if you get what I mean.''

Scrunching my face up in disgust, I shove him in the side with my elbow, and according to Vanessa it really hurts. But Zac stands there as if a feather touched him, not even affected by it. ''Well, I'm not like any girl.''

I walk forward, before I hear Zac muttering something which I can't figure out. Turning my head back, I force myself to see the best of this situation but hilariously fail so I say dead-panned, ''Hurry up, we're gonna miss the plane.''

Peace at last. I managed to escape Zac and thankfully I'm sitting next to Mum. She's currently looking at the wedding planning programs and is in alot of stress. ''Mum, we have plenty time to organize this when we reach London, just rest for now, and then you can pull your hair out when you get there.'' She breathes in deeply before chuckling. ''I guess so, it's just that this is a huge deal. I never get jobs in London. Recently I've been doing more jobs and posting them online on my website, but I guess London really liked me and just wanted me there. I don't want to mess this up. This could change everything.-'' She sits up, awake and alert and faces me. ''- These customers are crazy rich, I mean, why didn't they just get someone from London?'' Thinking about this for a moment of two I reply. ''Mum, I've been to the weddings which you've organized, each of them are outstanding. It's clearly obvious why they chose you, you're really good at this. If anything, their lucky for you to be organizing their wedding.'' She smiles, and leans kissing my forehead. ''I'm lucky that you're here with me.'' Smiling I rest back, as soon as Mum leans back too and closes her eyes.

''Urm Maddi-''

I stir.

''Maddiii''

''Sunny, wake up.''

I squint my eyes open to see Zac standing there clearly agitated, scratching the back of his neck. ''Yeah?'' I croak. I mean, I didn't have time to warm up my vocals before waking up.

Geez.

''Can you wake up your mum? My mum needs to talk to her about London and 'girls stuff' I say quoting my mum.'' Sighing, I rub my forehead before leaning off my Mum's shoulder, gently tapping her on her shoulder. ''Mum. Marie needs you.''

''Hm?''

''Marie needs to talk to you.''

Yawning, she takes off her blanket, and slowly stands up. She's not a heavy sleeper so it's no surprise she woke up that quickly. She steps over my feet and asks Zac where they were sitting. He points to the direction in the front and she walks off.

Zac smirks before stepping over my feet and settles in the seat where Mum was sitting. Sighing, I bring my knees to my chest before clutching around them making a table for my head to rest since, I can't lean on my Mum's shoulder anymore. I ignore Zac's presence because I'm still mad at him.
