Lauren

Lauren chapter 14 unedited

"Braylen, Lauren, Lucas!" My dad yelled.

You see we could never just get a simple nudge or a call to say wake up, our parents always felt the need to yell out our names and wake us up that way.

"Coming." Luke groaned walking out into the hallway.

It was Monday morning and we had off of school for "professional development" or something like that and we had to take Braylen and her friends to the airport so they could head back to school.

"We have an 11 o'clock flight to make here people let's move!" My mom yelled at us even though we were like 2 feet away from her. We hurried and took 10 minutes in the showers and headed out the door. We picked up Braylen's friends from their hotel and stopped at Dunkin Donuts for some breakfast and coffee of course. We went through the drive thru not having time to go inside. I just kept it simple and ordered an Iced coffee with extra cream and sugar and French vanilla swirl and an onion bagel with cream cheese. So sue me, I liked onions. We arrived at the airport about 45 minutes later and we went as far as we could with bray and her friends and then it was time for us to go. We gave her big hugs and kisses and wished them a safe flight. After that we headed back to the house. Naturally luke and I both went back upstairs to get the sleep we had been disturbed from. I left my phone in the house on purpose actually. I didn't really need it, we were only going to the airport and back. I had 10 text messages to my surprise.
Katie (2)
Sam (2)
Carly (3)
Eric (1)
Chelsea (1)
Trevor (1)
Oh great my friends were just talking in our group message again. But Trevor isn't in that so I was happy to see that text.

Trevor: Goodmorning Beautiful;)

He was so cute! Ever since we established that we felt the same way for each other, he's been so charming. He always sends good morning and good night texts, he makes sure he shows me lots of attention and he FaceTimes me a lot. I mean this guy was so adorable, I couldn't help but smile every time he texted me.

Me: Goodmorning :) but I'm going bck 2 sleep. So exhausted from waking up early!

Trevor: I understand, get some sleep gorgeous.

He always texted back quick and complimented me and I loved that about him! I mean that's really all it takes to get my attention! Just show me that you really like me ya know? Well Trevor sure does a fine job with that. Josh on the other hand hasn't been too cutesy with me since I confessed everything to him and told him that I wanted to see where things could go with Trevor. He barely talks to me anymore actually, he said he needed some time to think about what he wanted to do. And honestly I could respect that decision, but it's been like 3 days, how long did it take? And meanwhile Trevor is slowly pulling me away from him each day. Speaking of Trevor, he's coming over later because he's spending the night while his parents go out of town. And I know what you're thinking, nothing's going to happen between us. My parents are here and since my brother and sister decided to tell them about Trevor and I, I'm sure they'll be keeping a very close eye on us. But whatever I'm so tired I just want to go back to sleep.

***************

"Come here." Trevor said taking my hands and pulling me towards him.

"Okay." I said giggling and not resisting his pull.

We were in the basement and some of my brothers friends had came over so that they could all play video games. Trevor was playing along with them until Katie did her best friend duties and distracted the guys so that Trevor and I could have a moment alone. We were standing in the hallway that went through the foyer and led only to one of the downstairs bathrooms. Nobody ever used this hallway so it was the perfect place for us to have some alone time. We talked for a few minutes and we joked around when Trevor got a little serious.

"But on a more serious note," he said clearing his throat "I really do like you Lauren and I'm willing to go along with what you want to do for a little while but not for long. I want you to want me like I want you, but after a certain point I'll lose interest and I'll have to cal things off."

Wow. It has literally only been like 3 days since I told him I liked him. Was that a long time to him? Cause it certainly wasn't to me. Hell I think a long time is like 6 months! It hasn't even been 6 days and he's already telling me he's preparing to let go. Maybe I was wrong about him. Maybe I should just let him go now and spare myself the heartbreak.

"Then go now." I couldn't help myself. I tended to blurt out what I wanted to say and not hold it in. Not so much because I was unfiltered, but more because I just couldn't help myself.

"What?" He said looking puzzled.

"You said after a while you'll lose interest and it's only been 3 days so if you're already complaining, you mind as well leave now."

"No, you're not understanding," he said scratching his head "I want to be with you and I'm willing to wait a month or two, but after that I'll probably get tired of sharing you and if you're not ready at that point I'll have to let you go."

"Oh okay."

That was a little better. Two months was do-able. I had 2 months to make up my mind on who I wanted to be with. That's if Josh even wanted anything to do with me anymore. Two months. Still doesn't seem like enough time...let's try this.

"If Josh is even up for it," I said Calmly "I'll make my decision by Christmas."

That was my proposal. Christmas. That gave me a little more than 2 months to spend time with each of them and really figure out who I wanted to be with.

"Deal."

"Good." I said let a smile creep on my lips. He smiled back. His smile was sexy too and I wanted to know what it felt like to have his lips on mine. I leaned in forward and closed my eyes. I was taking my time to get to his face, part of me hoping he would voluntarily close the gap between us. And he did. Before I could finish my journey to his lips he met me half way. He kissed me and everything felt like magic. I felt the electricity running through my body and then I felt the warmness of his tongue gently pressing against mine. We kissed for another good 30 seconds and then we parted. I was smiling and so was he. That was by far the best kiss I've ever had. But seeing as though the only other person I kissed was Josh there weren't that many competitors. He licked his lips and leaned in for some more. I met him half way this time and kissed him back. I was the one to start the tongue action this time. I just felt so alive and electric while he was kissing me. He was grabbing my butt too and that just added to how I was already feeling. He pulled away from me and just stared at me smiling.

"What?" I asked blushing.

"Who knew how good of a kisser you are?" He said licking his lips remembering the kiss we just shared.

"You do now." I said wrapping my arms around his neck and walking closer to him. We kissed again. This time it was just a simple 2 second closed mouth kiss.

"Mhmm. Little Rosehill isn't so little anymore huh." He said biting his lip and looking down at me.

"Guess not." I said smirking at him.

Gosh Trevor was just so sexy and adorable. Why couldn't I just be with him already. I totally forgot about Josh anyway and plus Trevor was a way better kisser than Josh was.

"Trevor?" I heard someone yelling.

"Where the hell are you dude?" They yelled again.

Fuck. I totally forgot about all of Luke's friends being here. We decided to just come out of hiding and faced everybody. Trevor and my brother exchanged looks and gestures and then a laugh and everyone went back to the basement. Katie and I went upstairs to shower and iron out uniforms for school tomorrow.
