The Boy In LA

Chapter 10, Do I Like Him?

I woke up and checked my phone to see that it was only 8:43 am. I turned around to see Braedon, but he was already gone. He probably left before my dad woke up. Don't want him asking questions. I suddenly smelt the amazing smell of pancakes. I quickly ran down stair and into the kitchen.

As I enter the kitchen I am met with the sight of Braedon pouring pancake mix onto a pan. "Braedon?!?"

As he looks up, his emerald eyes meet mine. "Oh hi Nessa." He smiles.

"What are you doing" I say taking a seat on the island bench

"What does it look like? I'm cooking pancakes."

"No I mean why are you still here? My dad can wake up any minute."

"Don't worry Vanessa. I caught Braedon trying to sneak out and I asked him to stay for breakfast. And then he offered to cook." Dad was sat at the dining table that sat to the left of the room.

"Dad. Nothing happened between us last night, in case you were thinking something."

"Oh, I know. You said you were just friends. I believe you."

"Actually, HE said we were friends. I said we just had to do an assignment together." I said pointing to Braedon

"Ahuh," Dad smiles "Okay." I jump off the island and head to the dining table, taking a seat next my father, waiting for the pancakes to be served.

"So how do you like your pancakes? Big, soft, fluffy, thin, crispy?" Braedon asks from the cooking top.

"Don't you have somewhere to be?" I answer with a different question.

"Why would I need to be anywhere else?"

"Because you don't need to be here. The date is over so now you can leave now."

"Awww come one. This is just a chance for me to spend another day with my little Nessa." He says takes a seat at the table.

"it's, VA-nessa." I correct him

"Nessa." He replies

"Vanessa."

"Nessa."

"Vanessa."

"Nessa."

"Vanessa."

"Vanessa." Braedon says.

"Nessa." I respond

"HA!" He taunts.

"God you're so annoying." I say as I lean back into my chair.

"And that's why you love me." He smiles.

"I don't love you. I don't even like you." I reply

"Yes you do. otherwise you wouldn't have kissed me."

"You kissed me!"

"You didn't stop me."

"Whatever."

He had a cheeky little smirk on his face as he left the dining table and headed back to the kitchen

"Hey dad." I say turning towards him.

"Yes darling."

"Why aren't you working today?"

"What do you mean? It's Sunday, I always work on Sunday."

"It's just that your always out the house by 8:45 and its 10 passed 9."

"No it's not. It's- Oh it is. I'm going to be late. Ok well you and Braedon have the house to yourselves. Don't break any thing. Bye honey." And with that he picks up his jacket and rushes out the door.

"Bye Dad. Love you." I call after him

"Love you too sweet heart." He calls back.

Not long after he's gone, Braedon comes in with a tall stack of delicious looking pancakes.

"What? Is your Dad scared of pancakes?" He says placing the pancakes down on the table.

"No. He just needed to go to work"

"Does that mean we have the whole house to ourselves?" He smirks

"No it means I have the whole house to myself you're leaving straight after breakfast."

"Hey I deserve to stay longer. I cooked pancakes for you."

"Fine." I say rolling my eyes. "They smell Sooooo Good. I didn't know you could cook."

"I can't." He took a pancake and stuffed a gigantic bit in his mouth. I watched him as he realised that the pancakes a horrible. He ran to the kitchen then spat out the mushed-up pancake in the sink. I followed him into the kitchen and brought the stack with me.

"Guess you really can't cook." I laugh and put the stack of pancakes down on the island bench.

"Pppffttt sure I can. They are delicious. Here, try one." He picks up a pancake and stuffed it in my face.

"No thanks." I wacked his hand and the pancake out of my face.

"Come on. You'll love it." He lifted his hand back up to my face.

"No!" I wacked his hand once more, but he lifted it back up.

I run around the kitchen with him chasing after me. After a while he manages to catch me. He grabbed me and pulled me in closer. I turned around and we were staring into each other's eyes. He leaned into kiss me. I can feel is breath on my face. Just as I thought he was about to kiss me he shoves the pancake in my mouth. I run over to the sink and spit out the pancake.

"You really can't cook." I say rinsing out my mouth

"Hahaha. Come on. It's not that bad."

"You're right....... It's worse." He laughed and came closer to me. He then grabbed me and pulled me in tight. He leaned In and kissed me. This kiss felt real unlike the other one. The other one just felt like a kiss. This one made me melt and feel all tingly inside. We pulled apart and were touching foreheads.

"I told you, you liked me." He smirks

I pushed him away and laughed. As I started to walk out and I shouted behind me, "I still don't like you."

"Yes you do."

"No I don't." I walked upstairs and took a shower in my bathroom. After a nice long shower, I Got out and put on my favourite blue romper. I then heard Braedon come upstairs and he grabbed his things.

"So what are we doing today?" He says sitting down on my bed

"Well I don't know what you are doing but I'm going to read my book."

"Really? On a bright beautiful day like this, you're gonna stay home and read. I say we go out to the beach and have some fun."

"But you have nothing to wear?"

"Well then let's go shopping."

"Ok. let me go get my wallet and get changed."

"Yessssssss." He says as he leaves the room and head down stairs.
