Chapter 6~ Karma's a b-turd

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

What got him so cocky and over confident? If he thought I was affected by him, he had another thing coming. I angrily scrub at myself in the shower and have that stupid glower on my face just thinking about it. Or him. No, it is more fitting. 

I step out of the shower and wrap a towel around my body securely before gripping the door handle. If this ends up like one of those cliché stories and he's sat in my room I swear to God...

I Peek around the corner and when I see my room is clear I make a run for the door, swiftly locking it and turning around to lean against the door.

I'm not going to bother with anything special to wear, so I go with my favourite skinny jeans and a red flannel shirt that I let hang loosely around me. I leave my hair down because it goes wavy when it's wet and rush down stairs in my batman socks. Yeah, that's right.

I get to the bottom of the steps just as Jamie hits the bottom, sucking in a huge breath to call out my name. I put up a hand to stop her but she releases the breath and along with it a thunderous boom,

"Perrie, dinner!" She sucks in another breath and lets it out again before looking at me with an "innocent" smirk. "Oh hey Perrie, didn't see ya there!" She clicks her teeth and throws a foot girlishly up behind her before turning and skipping away.

"Ain't getting away with deafening a girl." I mutter before I run and jump onto her back. She squeals loudly and almost looses balance but her arms come to my legs and she holds us both up, puffing out breaths of shock.

I laugh loudly and she shakes her head. "I could drop you on your arse you know." When I say I don't care, she continues. "Or reverse-hardly-into that wall."

I pinch her cheeks from my position and I hear her sigh as she trudges to the kitchen. "Nah, you love me too much."

"Unfortunately." She mutters disdainfully and I chuckle, holding onto her so I don't drop.

When we reach the kitchen we find mum, dad, Mr and Mrs Jeane and it. Dad raises an inquisitive brow and I shrug above Jamie, answering simply with,

"Payback." I feel Damian's laser gaze on me without even having to check, but keep watch on my dad who looks amused but is also trying to be stern.

"Jamie, put your sister down."

"Yeah Jamie!" I whine immaturely in her ear, making her flinch because she's terribly ticklish.

"Ohh," She drags it out dramatically, adding a theatrical tone in there too. "like I'm forcing you to be there."

I jut out my lower lip and look at dad, trying not to laugh at his mostly amused but slightly embarrassed expression. Put me and Jamie together and we can be quite the pair.

He just shakes his head.

"And anyway," Jamie continues, releasing my legs and I shakily drop to the floor, just saving myself by grabbing the fridge handle. "I should've been the one getting payback for what she sent to Aaron earlier!"

I grin and turn to my sister, reaching out to pinch her cheeks again but not succeeding. "Aw, but you looked so cute eating like a dog."

She gasps but I can tell she wants to laugh.

"By the way, what did he reply with?"

My mum steps in-hands on hips- firm business. "Can we get on with the meal now?"
