Roommates

Chapter 14

Erin pov
I thought hard and long about Kj's question. He was drunk and I just had a perfect two days with Quan.
"If you don't want to, I understand" Kj said while slurring his words.
I decided to not take the offer "I'm just gonna shower and go to bed Kj, I'm not feeling too well" I lied just so I wouldn't go to his room.
"....aite" he sounded real disappointed. As much as I wanted to, I couldn't get myself to go to his room tonight. We had great conversations the other night I was in his room. We learned a lot about eachother, but I really just couldn't tonight.
Kj slowly walked off into his room as if he was upset. I went to my room to get clothes; a grey oversized shirt, burgundy PINK underwear that I got on sale from Victoria Secret, and mix match socks. I never wear matching socks because I could never find the matches. When I went to the bathroom, I turned my head to see Kj on the edge of his bed. His hands were moving together, but I couldn't make out what he was playing with in his hands. I heard him move so I shut the door and continued to run my shower water. After putting my socks on, I proceeded out of the bathroom and into my room only to stop and look into Kj's room. He was spread out on his bed with his clothes and shoes still on. I heard his loud snoring so I knew he had to be sleep. I went to the kitchen to get water and bring it back to his room. I sat the glass on the little brown dresser beside Kj's bed. I took his size 12 Jordans off his feet. It was a hassle trying to get those huge ass shoes off. I need to get back to working out the way I struggled. He slightly moved letting me know that he was sort of awake. I saw his eyebrows furrow to the fact that someone was touching him while he was sleep. When his eyes opened all the way, he looked relieve to see it was me. "Here, drink this or you'll feel horrible tomorrow morning" I put my hand behind his head motioning him to drink the water. "Thank you" his raspy deep voice said. I smiled a little "you're welcome, I'll leave the rest right here for you" I put the glass on the dresser and turned his lamp off. I could feel his eyes on me. "Come here" his voice called out to me while I was walking towards the door. I turned around and went back to the side of his bed. "Can you lay with me for just a lil while?" He wouldn't give up the fact that I wasn't going to sleep with him tonight. I just took the offer, that's the least I could do. I crawled onto the other side of him and put the navy blue covers over me. Kj never slept with covers every time I saw him sleeping. There was no point of him having them. I turned to my side laying face to face with him. "Are you okay?" I asked him.
"Now I am" he did a small side smile. I trembled hearing him say that. I smirked "oh stawp it Kj", "what I do?" I knew for a fact he was drunk because Kj never said cutesy stuff to me. Right here, right now felt so right, but it's so wrong. Kj motioned me to come closer and I did. I put my long right leg over his legs. He put his hand on my lower back while I laid on his chest. Next thing I know, he was snoring in my ear so I just fell asleep as well.
-----------------------------------------
I woke up to see Kj still sleeping. we somehow parted ways. Last time I checked, I was laying on his chest now he's laying on his stomach spread apart while I'm on the edge of the bed. I was almost falling off the right side of the bed, so I shoved him. He didn't move one bit. I forgot he was drunk as shit last night, he's probably going to have a mean hangover. I just thought about the fact that I had to work today. I hopped up so fast out of bed. My phone was charging in my room so I couldn't hear my alarm. I got ready for work, putting on my Walmart uniform and zoomed out the front door.
--------------------------------------
Thank god I wasn't late, that would've been a bad first impression. I clocked in and got right to work.
"Goodmorning Miss Erin" my manager said aloud looking over her glasses. She was a white lady with wavy hair that came to her shoulders. So far, I liked my manager; she was nice and polite. Since we didn't have many guy workers today, they had me doing stock work. I hated it so much. At least doing this position, I could take longer breaks and even chill a bit. My phone buzzed.
Kj
"wyd?" 9:56am
Kj never ever texted me, so I figured something was wrong.
"I'm at work, what's wrong?"9:48am
Kj
"Nothing, I woke up and saw you wasn't beside me..."
I don't understand why he was surprised, I was only suppose to be in his room for a "little while" last night. I didn't text him back. I caught myself smiling at the fact that he texted me. I looked around me embarrassingly to see if anyone saw me.
-----------------------------------------
After work, I stopped by to get my second favorite food next to chinese food; Chickfila. While I waited in the drive thru I decided to call Quan.
"Hello"
"Hey baby, what you been up to?"
He spoke hesitantly, "N-nun much, chilling. wassup?"
"...nothing, I can't just call to talk to you?"
"I mean yeah, I just thought maybe you wanted something"
In the pit of my stomach there was something telling me that things aren't right.
"Nooo, but I guess I'll talk to you later then. Love you"
"Okay, love you too." He sounded calm again like he was waiting to get off the phone with me. I called Mia.
"Eriiiie, wassup girl?"
"Hey Mia, something wasn't right when I was talking on the phone with Quan just now. Wanna do me a favor?"
"Aw lord, I just wish you GIVE HIM UP. He's probably doing something he has no business doing..." Mia went on and on like she always did when I brought his name up. "Mia, please!". She took a long pause "...okay Erin, what you want me to do?"
"...go to his house and see what he's up to."

Mia pov
I finished up my shopping at the mall just to do what Erin asked. As I walked toward the exit of the mall, a tall, caramel complexion guy with waves held the door open. He had on black and white adidas pants with a white v-neck tshirt, and Infrared 6 Jordans . He was cute and he had pretty ass green eyes. "Thank you" I couldn't help but to smile. He kicked his lips "you welcome". He then took that pass to ask for my name and number; I gave it to him. I didn't have time to finish flirting so I skirred off to Quan's house.
When I finally got closer, I couldn't believe my eyes.
