Rooming With my Brother's Best Friend

Chapter 2

It was 6am when I was rudely, and unwillingly awoken from my slumber. They didn't even have the decency to wake me up nicely did they? No! They tipped a glass of water over my face, pulled off my blanket and then flipped my mattress. Who even wants to be woken up at 6am any day?

"It's time to wake up now." Are you kidding me! I just wanted to spend today in my room but no, I had to be woken up by this little shit!

"What do you want from me Parker!?"

"Come on, I thought I could get at least a couple of hours in before you were whisked away by your friends on your first day of freedom."

"1, why do you even want to hang out with me? And 2, who says I even have plans today other than dinner?"

"Because I know some fun places and you're meant to have fun on your first day of freedom, and I just thought you would but that's okay because that means I get you to myself for the day." Parker replied with his signature smirk on his face.

"Well then do you want to get out so I can shower and get dressed?"

"Wait, I have a choice in the matter?"

"No you don't I was just being polite, get out."

"Ugh fine, whatever."

I hopped straight into the shower and got changed. Considering I didn't know where we were going, I decided to stay casual and get into my black ripped jeans and a plain white muscle tee. I could never forget my trusty converses though. I walked out of my room just as Parker came back up the stairs, again with a piece of broccoli. What is it with this boy and broccoli?

"Okay now that I'm ready, fancy telling me where we are going today?"

"Actually it's a surprise so you're going to have to wait until we get there."

"Seriously! You drag my ass out of bed at 6 am, and then don't even tell me where we are going."

"Yeah basically, now get in the car."

We head over to his car and I am stopped in awe. He drives an Audi R8.

"You have an Audi R8! How did I never know about this? Why have I never been in this!?"

"Yes I have an Audi R8 and I have for a while. I didn't think you knew cars so I never told you and I don't drive it much."

"Can I drive it?"

"How about another time, I don't particularly feel like dying today okay."

"Hey! My driving isn't that bad thank you. I'm actually pretty good okay."

"Yeah I'm sure you are but you're currently delaying our plans so will you just get in the car already."

"Yeah whatever."

I hopped in the car and we drove off. I felt like those girls in the movies how they stare out the window and contemplate life decisions while listening to a sad song. The only difference was I am actually still trying to get over the fact that Parker owns an Audi R8. Next thing I know, Shawn Mendes' song 'The Weight' came on the radio and I couldn't hold it in. I turned it up really loud and started singing along as loud as I could. I don't even care what Parker thinks of me right now, if I'm hanging out with him, I'm acting like myself.

"Wait! You can sing?!" Parker exclaimed.

"Um no! What are you talking about? I can't sing, pfft what are you on?"

"Well from what I just heard, you can most certainly sing so don't you 'pfft' me okay little lady."

"Who do you think you're calling little lady buddy? I am anything but little okay now shut up because this is my favourite part.

I can't lift the wait no I can't lift the weight yeah you stand on my shoulders and my heart just breaks. I can't lift the wait no I can't lift the weight yeah you stand on my shoulders and my heart just breaks. I can't lift the weight no I can't lift the weight yeah you lower your standards and I raise the stakes. No I can't life the weight. 

You tell me you were happier with him but you want me to stay, you tell me that you needed time but you pushed me away. And when you try to take me back my heavy heart just breaks, and I can't lift the weight."

"Yeah sure you can't sing. Anyway, destination number one is on the right."

"Oh my god! Laser skirmish! I love laser skirmish."

"Well good because this is only phase one of the dat... day out. And we are on the same team by the way. I don't need you kicking my ass at skirmish."

"Okay that's fine with me."

Time Jump to End of Skirmish Match

"Parker, its just you and me left in this war. We're gonna make it through this we just have to go out there and shoot our asses off."

"Alright on three. 1... 2... 3 attack!"

We ran out guns at the ready and shot at everything that we could.

"We did it! We won Parker we won!"

"Not just yet." A mysterious voice said from behind me.

At this point Parker jumped in front of me and took the shot so I had time to shoot back before he could take another shot.

"Cheyne! You did it! You won the game for us! I'm so proud of you!"

"Thanks Parks, pity you got shot hey."

"Parks huh, I like it. Now it's time for part 2. In the car Cheyne."

We hopped back in the car but this trip didn't take as long and unfortunately, there was no Shawn Mendes. When we arrived I realised that we were at the go kart track and I couldn't contain my excitement.

"Alright settle down, out of the car and into the kart."

We rode around the track and then we had a race. I won obviously, I mean I could literally beat anyone. Once the race was over, it was getting kind of late and I had to get ready for dinner so we headed back to the car.

"Hey Cheyne, you're getting in the wrong side."

"Umm, no I'm not. I'm getting in the pass... oh. OH! YOU'RE LETTING ME DRIVE THE BLACK BEAUTY!"

"Well, seeing your driving at the tracks, I trust you enough to drive my car. But on one condition."

"And that is?"

"You have to promise to do this with me again."

"Um obviously, if it means that I get to drive the black beauty again then I'm definitely down for it."

"Okay good. Well then let's get home."

I hopped into the driver's seat and drove home. I may have exceeded the speed limit a couple of times but luckily there were no police around to notice. As we rocked up at my house I didn't want to leave. I just had the greatest day of my life and drove my dream car. I eventually got out of the car and walked upstairs into my room to get ready. I applied minimal makeup and wore a long elegant red dress that hugged my body in all the right places. I am so ready for this dinner tonight.
