Endless Nights

5

                   The next morning came and the sound that has awoken me was the sound of a phone. I rolled over to reach the phone and careful not to wake Michael. I didn't even glance to see who it would be.

"Hello?" I say lowly 

"Who is this?" a guy with a discourteous attitude.

"Id like to say the same." I say in the same tone he had. He scoffs and I didn't get a chance to hear what he was about to say just as Michael snatched his phone away.

"Hello?" he says I could practically hear the guy roll his eyes.

"Who's the chick?" the guy on the phone says as Michael gazes at me. I couldn't figure out what was feeling. I don't like how I can't see what he's thinking especially when he seems to be staring directly at me.  I looked away before,my eyes leave his and wander down to his body.

"She's a friend. Thats beside the point why'd you called so early? That's very unlikely of you." he says

"Well she sounds lovely. But I called to see if you were up to head down to the beach later on with the rest of the guys." the guy says, this time I rolled my eyes. 

"Yeah, well she has no interest in you. But yeah I'm down but I'm not paying this time man." Michael says as he starts searching for his clothes. The guy on the other end laughed "Mike come on you know we're broke as shit!" he says

Now Michael rolled his eyes and sighed as he put his shirt on. I on the other hand had blocked their conversation and wondered when Sam will be back. Tomorrow is Monday and I'm dreading to head back to hell. This spring break was better than expected. Well besides the endless parties, I didn't want it to come to an end. I got up and saw Michael hanging up the phone. 

"Sorry, I answered your phone it just-" I started to say before he cut me off. His mouth formed half a smile, he came closer and touched my cheek. I feel vulnerable when he does that but I don't want to give him the satisfaction. Or to even let him know he has any affect on me. He made me look up at him and gave me a kiss on the cheek. 

"Its alright I should've have it on silent. The guy you were talking with was a friend of mine and asked if I wanted to go to come along with him and the rest. And I wanted to know if you'd like to come with?" he asked with a bit of hope in his eyes.

"If it means I would get to be with you then yes." I say as I smirked

"I mean why wouldn't I want to be with the most stunning girl at school?" He says he noticed my  smile disappear because his smile had been replaced with a frown.

"You're telling me we go to the same school?!" I half yelled as I let go of him. Is that why he was so eager to come see me the next day? So he could brag about how he got laid.

"No, Sky-" he began but I cut him off

"I told you not to call me that!" now I was angry. He started to come close but I backed away. "Oh my God! That's why you told that guy from last night to leave me alone. You wanted the chance to sleep with me. You didn't stop him because you thought that was the right thing to do." I say lowly but audible for him to hear.

"Skylar I told you I would never take a chance like that to sleep with someone. Or you for that matter. Second, I never knew you would be at that party. And like I said I wouldn't want to see some asshole take advantage of you. You probably didn't recognize me since we've never spoked at school." he said slowly for me take it all in. 

I didn't know whether or not I should believe him usually everyone lies to get what they desire. But the way his eyes were looking at me spoke something else.

"Trust isn't given easily like a vending machine." I say looking back at him slowy he laughed

I furrowed my eyebrows,what the hell is so funny? 

I can feel my cheeks flush as he tried to keep himself from laughing again.

"Sorry..it's just.. it's pretty clear I have earned your trust last night. It's like asking someone if their trust is given when clearly it's in their eyes. I'm not stupid to lose yours in a way others had.So I'm guessing you didn't expect to see someone you've slept with at school?" he says as I try to not feel a bit embarrassed.

" Or any where for that matter, I'm sorry if I made you felt terrible. Plus I'm used to not seeing the guy the next day. Look, I'm just a girl trying to forget and not feel anything at all." I say avoiding his eyes.

"I know." is all he says with a small smile 

Just those two words made me feel a bit at ease since I have last seen his face.

I opened my mouth but the words have left as he stepped forward to hug me.
