Kyle

Chapter 6

When we came home after the mall everyone went home except Kyle. Kyle didn't want to see Delainee for whatever reason, so he stayed at my house and we were playing just dance in the game room.

"I'm gunna beat your ass!" Kyle announces dancing to the song "Hotline Bling".

"Oh ya, well I already have a crown!" I scream back sticking my tongue out at him.

"No way it's mine now!" Kyle screams back and side bumps and I fall out of view of the motion sensor, making me get disqualified.

I'm lying in the ground breathing so hard, and out of energy. When the song ends the total score was given to us, even though I was rudely disqualified, Kyle won.

"Thanks a lot idiot, I was just about to win." I tell him. He walks over and holds out his hand to help me up. Her grabs on to my wrist and pulls me up. We stand there in the position until Kyle looks up at me.

"How long?" He asks me. I look back down at my wrist and quickly pull my hand away and pull down my sleeve.

"It's nothing." I quickly tell him walking back to the tv to set up another song.

"How long?" He repeats.

"Can we not do this right now?" I plead, selecting another song. I stand in from of the sensor waiting for his to come into view.

I turn around and face him, he walks up to me and says nothing, he just a wraps his arms around me. I give out a breath I didn't know I was holding and give in to the hug. I wrap my arms around his torso and lay my head into the crook of his neck.

"I'm sorry." He says. I back up slightly from him to look at his face.

"For what?" I ask, confused.

"I should have known, the concern in your eyes during the pool party. You looked afraid to be out in the open." I wraps me into his arms once again and inhales deeply, then let's it out.

I back away from him and go to sit on the couch, Kyle following. "Listen it's nothing you could've prevented, we've been friends for almost two weeks now. This," I motion to my wrist, that he's holding so gently,"has been happening for years."

Kyle rubs his thumbs in circles over the scars, and the brings my wrist up to his mouth and gives it a slight peck of his lips. Just that single peck sent shivers through my spine.

"Even though we've only been friends for like two weeks now, I feel as though I've known you my life." Kyle says, looking me straight in the eye. He wraps his other arm around my neck and pulls me into him for a hug.

He holds me for a few minutes, which felt like an eternity. I was just about to fall asleep in arms when he gets a text message. He leans back from me and reads it. "I've got to go my mom wants me home." He gives me another little peck on my wrist then stands up. I stand up with him and walk him down the stairs to the door.

"Thanks again for paying." I tell him. "And for the company." We hug once more, and Kyle gives me a soft kiss on my cheek. He opens the door and walks out.

Half way down the stairs he calls up to me. "Text me later. Okay?" I nod my head and wave goodbye to him as he gets in his car and drives off.

I walk into the kitchen, after closing the door I grab a plate I had prepared already. Grilled cheese and a bowl of Spaghetti-O's. My favorite.

I reheat my food and walk back upstairs. I set down my plate, and take off my clothes. I throw them into the hamper and grab my plate and walk I tot he bathroom. I set the plate down on the counter as I turn on the faucet in the tub.

After its all warmed up and ready I throw in a purple bath bomb and grab my plate and phone and slip into the tub. I pull over the tray I bought at HotTopic and set my plate down on it. I quickly tie up my hair and start eating.

As I'm eating a get a text message. I pick up my phone and unlock my screen to who texted me.

Kyle <3: Hey Cutie

I text him back after I stop smiling like an idiot.

Me: Hey there

Kyle <3: so what are doing since the time a I left your house?

Me: I'm relaxing in my tub, eating food

Kyle <3: wish I could join you ;)

My face starts to heat up a little, but I type a quick message.

Me: Kyle remember you have a girl friend

Kyle <3: ya ya, well here's the thing about Delainee. We sorta have an on off relationship meaning in her mind she can go off and have sex with any guy

Kyle <3: where as if I do that she'll slit my throat...

Me: oh.

Kyle <3: anyways you ready to start school tomorrow?

Me: omg I totally forgot tomorrow is the first day back from summer vacation!

Kyle <3: yeah it is, also I was thinking maybe I could give you a lift. You know like carpool

Me: you don't have to I can always ride my Mustang or my Ducati

Kyle <3: ha you and your wheels :) well it was just a suggestion think about

Kyle <3: I'll be waiting for that text tomorrow. I can hear it now..." Oh Kyle please drive me to school, your such a badass and your hot!"

Me: oh please

I finish eating my food and set the tray onto the floor next to the tub. I sink down a tad more keeping my arms raised up so I don't get my phone wet:

Kyle <3: I'm right aren't I?

Me: in your dreams Tupae

Kyle <3: no in your dreams ;)

I set my phone down really quick and sit up. I stand up and grab my robe, off the hook next tot the tub in between the shower, and wrap my body with it.

I step out out of the tub and drain the water. I pick up phone and walk into my closet. I walk past all my workout clothes and head straight for my pjs. I set down my phone on a shelf, and take off my robe.

I decide to wear my new Batman undergarment, that my mom washed when I got home. I look in the full length mirror and smile to self remembering Kyle's face when I stepped out of the changing room.

I slip on some shorts and skip the tee, because it's already super hot in my bedroom. I walk back into the he bathroom with the robe in one hand and my phone in the other. I hang up the robe and head over to the sink, setting my phone down next to me.

I wash my face really quickly, and put on some moisturizer. I pick up my robe and walk into me bedroom turning off the bathroom lights. I turn on my bed side lamp, and check my backpack making sure I still have everything in it from when I went shopping for school supplies with my mom.

I walk over to my bed and jump in. I slip the covers up half way to my thighs, and text back Kyle really quickly before falling asleep.

Me: goodnight :)

Kyle <3: don't be surprised when you see me in your dreams Cutie ;)

I shut off my phone and plug it in onto the charger. I set it on my bed side table, and turn off the lamp.

I lay down on the soft pillows and start falling asleep with a grin on my face.
