The Boy Next Door

Chapter Fifteen: Light sleeper

After bringing out all my pillows to the living room for our pillow fight, we decided to bring my mattress out to the living room as well. We watched movies and ate popcorn. We took turns in deciding what to watch, and ended up watching She's the man, and Deadpool.

By the time we were watching Spirited Away we were both ready for bed and just drinking hot chocolate, of course Miranda would check in on us once in awhile, with texts like "Don't do anything PG-13" "How are you guys?" I doubt she actually read my reply, pretty sure she's too busy, but I still told her what we were up to.

By the time we were half way through the movie Jason said, "Celia, wanna bake? I'm craving for chocolate chip cookies right now." 

       " It's like 3 in the morning" I said with a slight laugh.

       "Please! Please! Please!" He said dragging each letter, begging. 

Which made me laugh, cause last time this happened we were like 7, and all I did then were ready made stuff, easy bake.

       "Wait, seriously? Why don't we just go to Starbucks, or somewhere with chocolate chip cookies. Oh, I think I have some cookies in the pantry." I said starting to get up.

       "No!" He complained, "You have to bake please!" He argued like a child while hugging my legs.

       "Fine, but your helping, and cleaning the all dishes cause I'm lazy" I said looking down at him acting all child like, which was I admit cute but at the same time weird.

So we paused the movie, played some music and made a mess in the kitchen. We placed the cookies in the oven and started cleaning. The apartment started smelling like cookies which made us drool.

I turn to look at Jason going through the fridge grabbing the gallon of milk, I stood up and got each of us a mug. I bring out the cookies as he heats up the milk. I start getting the cookies off the cookie sheet and onto a plate, I don't even get half way through the first sheet and I see Jason stuffing his face already.

      "Hey! Totally unfair, I'm working my butt off here and your eating already!" I say acting all whiny.

      "Not at all, it was my idea after all." He says with a smirk, then winks.

      "Annoying!" I say with a slight laugh.

      "Fine fine I'll stop eating..." He says eyeing the last cookie on the plate. "After this last one." He says with a grin.

All I could do was laugh at how childish we both were right now. Although he did stop eating and waited until I got all the cookies out of the sheets and I started eating before he could leave me with nothing but crumbs.

      "I didn't know one batter made this much" He said patting his tummy as if to say he was stuffed.

      "What do you mean this much?" I said while laughing. "You finished it!"

      "Yeah and you got some too, see that was a lot of cookies. Your full, I'm full, everyone's happy!"

      "I swear your so weird. Anyway help me clean up again."

      "Nah, you go watch. I got this." He said literally grinning like an idiot this time.

      "Okay then?.." I said walking to the living room, continuing the movie we were watching.

Jason's  POV

By the time I finished cleaning I sat beside Celia and continued watching the movie. I woke up, not knowing I fell asleep to the credits. I was just about to move when I noticed Celia was leaning on me fast asleep, I swear first she tells me to help her bring her mattress out and now shes asleep on me, does she even see me as a guy?.. Well whatever, I'm glad that she still treats me normally after all that's happened. 

I give her a slight peck on the forehead, "I really do like you..."

I let her lay down and place a pillow under her head and a blanket over her body; I grab a pillow and another blanket and set it up on the couch turn off the lights and the television and go to sleep.
