THIS MEANS WAR

Chapter 6: What the-

Danny likes me. My crush likes me. He likes me! This feels- weird.

Just as I sat in his car absorbing the fact that he'd just said he liked me. He's nervous and it's so cute!

"So, you like me?" I couldn't believe what he'd just said.

"Uh- yeah. I'm sorry I even accepted that challenge, forcing you to like me- I guess I just wanted to convince myself that I could have you if I wanted. But you're way out of my league." He said blushing. Okay, can he get any more adorable?!

"Why would you say that? I mean, how can you like me? I'm rude, I'm a pain in the ass, I'm annoying! And I'm like a two year old ninety percent of the time."

"You say that like it's a bad thing?"

"It is!"

"Well, I like it. I like your wild, naughty, funny, often ridiculous side." He said smiling. And I was smiling like an idiot.

"Your house is here." He said.

"We'll continue this conversation on the phone." I said.

"Wow this is embarrassing. I just told you I like you and now I have to hear more of it on the phone. Phone rejections suck."

"I never said I'm rejecting you now, did I?" His eyes lit up, as I said that.

"When do I call?" He asked.

"Whenever you want to hear my lovely voice." I said in an overly sweet tone.

"Yeah. I'll do that." He said. I got out of his car and waved him goodbye.

I walked towards home with my stupid smile on.

I went towards the kitchen. Mom's out, just like she said she would be.

After eating a fruit I went towards my room.
As I entered my room, I let my body fall on the bed.

What. A. Day. I smiled wider.

"I like this new being enemies thing." I heard a voice and looked around.

"Bad boy? Hey, I'm sorry-" before I could complete what I was saying I felt something on my face.

"Aahhhhh!" I screamed. A lizard. Shit. Shit. Shit. He knows I hate lizards. Okay I'm not as scared as much as I hate them. They're just creepy. And gross.

Somehow I got that lizard off me. Bad boy stood in the corner laughing.

Not gonna lie, I was in tears. In actual fucking tears.

"Get out!" I ordered.

"Aww, little Lexi's scared? You started it babe."

"A lizard? Really? Why would you use a lizard, you know how much I hate them!"

"What's there to hate? Must be just like looking in the mirror for you."

"You know there's only one thing I hate more than lizards!"

"Of course I do. Dirty socks." And suddenly I could smell it.

Dirty socks.

"Where have you put them?"

"Let's see-" he said moving towards my closet.

"Maybe with your clothes." He said opening my closet.

Yuck.

"Holy-"

"I had saved these for you since months." I wanted to throw up.
