Loving The Unexpected

Chapter 9

Layla's Pov

Its Saturday and i felt like visiting Jenny to do some homework. I hate doing homework! Much less alone. And I also wanted to chat with her. I needed advice, I think I'm actually beginning to develop feelings for Ken.

I get ready and wear a green v-necked top and some jeans, with my bag with my homework. Jenny's house is three blocks away so I didn't want to wear heels, and besides, Its just homework.

I set off. I'm a huge fan of walking. I would walk from Los Angeles to Beverly Hills if I could.

I quickly attach my Beats headphones to my iPod and start listening to "Bad Blood" By my favorite singer Taylor Swift and some other crazy rapper.

Already I've past the first block.

"Cos baby now we got Baad Bloooood," I sang while involuntarily closing my eyes.

"Now we got problems....... And I don't think we can solve ugh!!" I suddenly stopped as I realized I had crashed into someone, no wrongly put, someone has crashed into me.

I open my eyes and remove my headphones.

"Whats wrong with you dude, watch where you going b....." I stop as I look up to see the victim.

I see a cute blonde guy wearing a gold chain and was wearing ear rings. He was wearing a black top and some kaki shorts. The guy looked so cute, his lips were so red and his well structured face was just WOW.

"At least I'm not the one who's listening to music and closing her eyes," he said.

I didn't say anything. I was just, he was just, wow.

"Okay I'm sorry," he says.

"You better be," I say back with a sense of caution even though I couldn't hold back my smile.

"I'm Valentino," He says. "Who might you be?"

"I'm Layla," I say and I could feel my cheeks flushing.

He corners me, I could feel my back against the wall, where do guys get these damn good skills, I ask myself.

"Did you know you had these pretty brown eyes?" He asked me, Valentino asked me. Valentino, what a cute name, like an Italian something. And wait, pretty brown eyes? That's the same thing Ken told me, I guess I do have pretty brown eyes.

"Yeah.... I knew," I said "Look I gotta go...." I say.

"At least let me get your number," He said with that Voice of his.
I give him my number.

"We'll be in touch," he said and walked away. Ken? Valentino? This is all messed up in my head, now I really need to talk to Jenny.

Without listening to music, I briskly walk the journey to Jenny's house.

Just as I noticed the house, I saw Jenny opening that mahogany door of hers.

"Jenny!" I call but I could tell she did not hear me.

"Jenny!!" I call again and she turns.

"Lilly!!" She calls back as she waits for me to approach her.

I finally reach her.

"How's you bae?" She asks.

"I'm cool," I reply, "where are you headed?"

"Oh no where in particular, I just wanted to walk around the block for a while, care to join me?"

"Sure, you already know I like to walk a lot."

We continue walking, we saw some cute guys passing but I didn't pay attention to any of them, unlike Jenny, I couldn't get the picture of Valentino's face out of my mind.

"Have you heard... um... Chingalinga, by Alex Dione and Jason Derulo?" She asks me.

"Yes! Yes I have," I reply. "The song is just cool."

"Tell me about it," Jenny responds.

We pass by a boutique.

We see these wonderful shoes at the front. They were green and sparkly.

"Look at those pretty shoes!" I shout without realising how loud I shouted.

"Wow, they are pretty!" Jenny exclaims. "Too bad its too expensive, I mean look at the price."

I look.

"Five hundred and fifty dollars! just for a shoe? lol lets just get out of here." I said.

We walk back to Jenny's house, we each have a milkshake before doing our homework. Our homework was mathematics, It was on constructions, my acheles heel( if thats how they spell acheles) , thank God I had Jenny to help me.

I finished our homework. Jenny was just about finishing when I asked her.

"Um... Jenny, I wanna ask you something? Which boy do you like?"

"Sometimes I think I like Brian, other times Mike, its kinda complicated. What about you?" She asks back.

"I don't know girl, but.....um..... I think I'm beginning to like.....um..... Ken?"

"What? Ken?? I never thought this was how thing's would turn out."

"I said I'm not sure okay, I just see him in a different way, that's all," I reply back.

"Layla loves Ken, Layla loves Ken," she teases with her mocking voice. Friends, just when you need them the most.

"See what you made me do!! You've made me write Layla loves Ken in my homework book."

"Its not my fault...." I shout back.

She cancels it.

"Don't blame me if our teacher sees it," Jenny says

"Whatever bae, anyways I got to go."

"It was fun, come again!" Jenny says.

"I will."

I say making my way out of the old mahogany door.
