Bet With The Bad Boy

Chapter thirteen: thunderstorm bonding

Archer's POV:

I climbed into my car chelsea trailing behind me, a little pink umbrella in her hand. I saw you with that fake blonde Candice today," she said twirling a piece of her strawberry blonde hair around her finger. "So i told her that you were mine and to back off," grinning she ran a hand down my arm. Pushing it off i climbed into my car. "We aren't together Chelsea stop telling people that we are." She looked at me with a hurt look on her face. "Babe i don't understand. Why are you mad at me," she whined. "Im not your babe. Go away and stay away, comprendo?" I said shutting the door. She let out a huff of breath before stomping away.

Freaking chelsea. Always getting in the way. Ever since the summer of junior year when i slept with her on accident shes been following me around like a lost puppy. She tries to dictate what i can and cant do and its annoying.

I was driving around the corner rain drops pelting my window, muttering to myself when i looked up and saw a girl right in front of me. Her hair was plastered to he face from the rain and here clothes were soaked. Slamming on my brakes she dropped her board she was carrying in shock and crouched in terror as i managed to stop and inch in front of her. She tried to move back but ended up tripping on her fallen board. Quickly i got out of the car and walked around. It was rydel. "Shit," i said under my breath.

Rydel's POV:

"Rydel." I heard a voice call my name and shake my shoulder lightly. "Rydel wake up." The person called again. Something shifted next to me before i felt someones breathing on my ear. "If you don't wake up i may have to tak advantage of you in this situation." At that my eyes shut open and i sat straight up. My head started to spin from sitting up so fast and a put a hand to it moaning. "Dont moan. Seriously thats a turn on." I heard Archer's voice say. "Ugh what happened," i groaned laying back down.

"We had sex duh," he said looking at me and winking. Omg. We had sex. Wait no i was just at school. And isnt it suppose to hurt. I dont hurt. Scowling at my hands i looked up at him. "No we didn't just tell me," i glared at him. He looked nervous and then cleared his throat. "Okay i kinda almost hit you with my car and then you fainted so i brought you back to my house," he said scratching the back of his neck. Memories of walking across the parking lot and the car came back. "You almost hit me and you didn't take me to the hospital," i said dumbfounded. He shrugged. "No."

"Great just great im going home," i said and hopped off the couch. Grabbing my backpack by the front door i walked out into the pouring rain. Archer stood in the door way watching me. "What no thank you?" he called to me with a smug grin. "For almost hitting me with a truck yeah thanks a ton," i yelled walking up to my front door unlocking it and stepped into the dry house.

Archer's POV:

Sitting on my couch a news warning came on. It started thundering a few minutes ago and apparently we were suppose to have severe thunderstorms all night long. Glancing over at the front door i saw Rydel's skate board. Sighing i debated on returning it to her at the moment or not. Grunting i got off the couch. I better make sure she was okay anyways. Its not everyday you almost get hit by a car. Let alone by sexy me.

Slipping on my shoes i grabbed her board and walked out the front door. i closed it and then dashed across the street in the rain. Walking up the path to her house i propped the board up against her porch railing and nocked on the door. I waited wondering where she was. I rang the doorbell about five times before giving up and walking off the porch. Looking up at her window i saw the light on and I knew something wasn't right.

Turning the knob on the front door i found out it was open. I walked into the eerie house as a bolt of lightning flashed across the sky followed by a boom thunder. I heard a noise upstairs that sounded like a scream and froze. Creeping up the stairs i reached the top and made my way down the hallway. "Rydel?" I called approaching her door that was open a crack. "Rydel?" I called again listening for her response. "Im in here" i heard a soft voice call. Pushing the door i walked into an empty room. I could hear faint singing and as i got closer to the bed i could hear it clearly.

"Chloe, i know your sister turns everyone on;
But ohhh baby, i have no doubt your the one that i want."

I got on my knees and peeked under the bed. There was Rydel, a scared look on her face wrapped in a blanket singing softly to herself. "Rydel hun, what are you doing under there?" I asked concerned. There was another crack of lighting and thunder boomed through the house. Rydel screamed into her blanket and a single tear slid down her face. "I dont like it," she sniffled and buried her head in the blanket. "You dont like the thunder?" I said not knowing wether to be amused or sympathetic for her. She shook her head, wrapping her arms around her legs.

"Rydel come here," i said extending my arms to her. "No," was all she said as another boom of thunder shook the house and she started shaking. "Rydel please you can trust me," i said coaxing her out. "Why should i? You almost hit me with your truck." She said as another boom echoed around the house. Another tear slipped down her face and i sighed. "Please," i tried again. "Just dont," she said looking around with a nervous look on her face. "Dont what babe?" I asked looking at her confused. "Dont leave. S-stay please," she stuttered, looking at me. "I wont i promise," i said as she slowly reached out and grabbed onto my hand.

Just as she had gotten out from underneath the bed it thundered again. She whimpered jumping onto me and wrapping her legs around my waist. Her arms where wrapped tightly around my neck and her right hands nails dug into the exposed skin. I bit my lip as she buried her face in the crook of my neck and her lips brushed against the skin at the base of it. "Your really afraid arent you?" I asked holding back a smile. "Not funny," she said huffing into my neck. I unwrapped her legs and laid her down on her bed.

Walking over to the window, i heard her panicked voice ask me where i was going. "Im just going to shut the window," i said reassuring her. "Come here please," she said and extended her arms to me. I climbed into the bed beside her and she snuggled into my chest, fisting the front of my shirt. "Wow i should come over during thunderstorms more often," i chuckled. She hit me and scooted away but after another crack of lightning followed by her non favorite noise she was pressed up against me closer than ever.

"You need to calm down," i said rubbing circles into her back. She shuttered trying to regulate her breathing. "Why were you singing that song?" I asked her breathing in her scent. She smelt like strawberry short cake and it was intoxicating. "Singing helps me stay calm," she said quietly and she buried her head in my chest. "You're good," i said and she snorted. "Yeah okay," she said looking up at me. "No really sing for me," i said and she laughed. "No," she frowned. "If you don't i will leave," i said inching away from her. "Fine, fine, i will," she said pressing herself back into me. "Same song?" she asked. "Whatever you want," i replied. Taking a deep breath i heard her start a new song.

"Happiness hit her
like a train on a track,
Coming towards her
Stuck still no turning back,

She hid around corners
And she hid under beds,
She killed it with kisses
And from it she fled,
With every bubble
she sank with her drink,
And washed it away down
the kitchen sink,

The dog days are over
the dog days are done,
The horses are coming
So you better run,

Run fast for your mother
Run fast for your father,
Run for for your children
For your sisters and brothers,
Leave all your loving
your loving behind,
You cant carry it with you
if you want to survive,

The dog days are over
the dog days are done,
Cant you hear the horses
Cause here they come,"

Her voice was trailing off and i realized she was falling asleep. My eyes too had gotten droppy. Kicking off my shoes i pulled off my shirt and left my basketball shorts on. I slid under the comforter with her and she snuggled back into my side. "Archer," she asked breathing into my chest. "Yes?" i asked sleepily. "You smell good," she said running her nose up my chest and inhaling. "Thanks babe," a small smile on my face. "And Archer," she asked again. "Yes?" i sighed. "Thank you she whispered and placed a kiss on my collar bone. "Your welcome sweetheart," i responded pulling her closer. I breathed in her sent and sunk down in the pillow falling asleep to the rain drops pelting the window.

"When its thundering outside,

Just grab your thunder buddy,
And sing this song too!
Fuck you thunder!
You can suck my dick!
You cant get me thunder cause your just gods farts!"
