Hard To Get

Chapter 21 - Will You Take Me With You to Neverland?

I woke up with a heavy solid on my waist, it's kind of warm and it felt good 'cause it was really chilly. I tried touching the heavy thing and I was surprised, my eyes opened wide suddenly. It was warm, hard, soft, and I can feel it moving. Then there's only one thing that popped on my mind- a human. I tilted my head north, then I saw Paul sleeping on the other couch. Why? 

I tried recalling things that happened last night - Bottle, spinning, kiss, Xander and Paul. Shit! Xander and Paul! So if Paul is sleeping on the other couch, then Xander is... 

"HOLY SHIT!" I yelled then took off Xander's arm on my waist. "What the!" 

"What?" Xander said, rubbing his eyes. "What?!" He raised his voice then sat down.

"Why were you- you were why? Hmm?" I started mumbling while pointing at the couch.

"You told me last night to sleep with you." Xander explained.

"You slept with me?!" I screamed.

"Yes." He said with no tone in his voice like nothing happened. I just stared at him speechlessly because what? I SLEPT WITH HIM!! I asked him to sleep with me? "Well, not that kind of sleep that has a sexual intercourse or something. We just slept, that's it." He added. 

"You" I pointed at him, "and you too Paul. This is not going to reach school, alright?" I said.

"Yeah of course, why would we tell?" Paul said, fixing the pillows on the couch. I sighed then checked my phone.

I HAD 8 MESSAGES.

I oppened imessage then saw a random number that texted me, and it said.

"Hey, I got your number from one of your friends. -Luke"

"You're going here today to visit Lily, okay? -Luke" 

"What time is it now?"

"Hey"

"Wake up"

"Are you awake?"

"Little Miss Princess, wake up!"

"Don't let me go there."

I was startled by what he last sent me. "Don't let me go there" I mumbled under my breath. I ran my fingers across my hair and shot a glance at the two boys and said, "Hey, what time is it?" 

"Why don't you check your phone?" Paul answered.

"Oh, yeah, right." I replied, then I took a glance on my phone and HOLY COW it was one in the afternoon! "Shit shit shit shit shit shit" I swore for hundred times while rushing upstairs. When I reached my room I went straight to the bathroom and checked myself. I had big eyebags hanging under my eyes and they were like maroon-ish, and my hair! I look like a lion, or probably a porcupine or a hedgehog becuase it was sticking out everywhere. 

So I brushed my teeth quickly, washed my face, then applied make up to hide those hideous eyebags. I also changed into fresh clothes- white fitted long sleeve top, and a mint blue skater skirt. I was too lazy to fix my hair so I brushed it then put it in a bun. On my way down, I slipped on my black converse and greeted the boys downstairs. 

"Where you going?" Xander asked. He was with Paul, watching a movie with leftover pizza on the table. 

"Out." I replied quickly and searched for my keys on the kitchen counter.

"Out where?" 

"To Neverland." I said. 

"Oh that's nice. Will you take me with you to neverland?" He asked.

"No." I said then rolled my eyes.

"Awww." 

"By the way, you can order pizza if you want I left $30 here on the counter. Make sure you don't waste it for drugs, beer or any alcoholic stuff. Just food, okay? Goodbye." I said quickly, grabbed my bag and headed to the door.

"Goodbye mom." Xander said, and it felt kinda weird. Well maybe it's because of how I talked to them before I went past them. 

As I opened the door, someone popped on my face. 

Luke.

"Luke! What the hell!" I yelled.

"Looks like someone had a party last night and forgot about your friend, Lily." He said calmly, but with a little threat like he's going to kill me.

"Why are you standing in front of my door?" 

"I was about to ring the bell, until I heard someone say goodbye" he paused "Mom?" He added. "Do you have any kids?" He asked

"What? No! They were just playing with me." I explained. "Now, let's go." I closed the door and headed outside, I held my keys and pressed the unlock button facing my car.

"Nice ride, but I'm sorry you're gonna have to ride with me." Luke said. 

"Why?" 

"Don't waste gas, miss. We're heading the same place anyway." 

"Fine."

"Right this way, miss." 

"Stop calling me that." 

We headed to his car and drove quietly to his house.
