Love Is Just A Four-Letter Word

Chapter 12 - Evil Sissy

Hayley's POV

"Are you okay honey? You need a hand?"

"Im fine mom. No big deal."

The doorbell rang so I informed my mom that I'll get it. I walked and open the door and saw Rex. Eyes grew bigger like I saw a dead body in front of me. What are you doing here? He brought flowers and a gift. Okay? This is really freaking me out knowing that my mom is here. Mom asked if I was okay and came next to me. She whispered to my ear asking me who this cute gentleman was. That was really freaking awkward.

"Its a pleasure to meet you Ma'am. Im Rex"

"Its great to meet you too. Come inside. She grinned"

He went in and looked around. He didn't feel shy or anything knowing that he came here to check on me. This is totally embarrassing. My one wish is just that my mom doesn't mention any of these to my sister.

"So are you hungry or something? Just get from the fridge or ask your sister. She gave a sly smile"

"Steph is here?! Uh, where are you going? I raised a brow"

"Buying some ingredients for my new dish. Take care Honey"

"Bye mom. I rolled my eyes facing at Rex"

I grabbed the cereal box and poured some with my milk. I began to ask why he was here. How did he even know where I really live?! He placed the flowers and the gift on the table and asked me if we could be more than friends. He meant it in our plan on the so called blind date we had. I thought about it so that it would be more realistic because I never wanted something like this would happen ever again. I set rules on what should he only can do to me and thats just to take me to movies, drive me home, go on lunch or dinner dates with him and hug me with only one arm.

"How about holding hands?"

"No. Too sick to watch."

"Don't you find it sweet?"

"Nah. I mostly see that in movies and we're not even really dating so Im sure its gonna be fine."

I got up and invited him to my room. He seemed shock when he saw how my room was covered with pictures of me, Tina and Ryan. He got the guitar on the right side of the corner and started to strum the strings. then his words struck my conscience.

"Actually, I know how to sing. I denied before because I don't want Tina and Ryan to know."

"Why not? He gave a warm smile."

"Well, I know they're going to blackmail me someday. Ive done too much embarrassment to them. More than you can expect and count."

"You're really stubborn."

"So what's song are you gonna play?"

"You Give Me Something by James Morrison. Game? He smirked"

"Okay okay. "

Aside from Ryan, Tony and the other guys that were with me on our so called camp, I feel comfortable when Im with Rex but that doesn't mean I like him. But he has everything a girl would want. After an hour has passed, he needed to practice with his bandmates so he gave me a hug and left. And now that Im the only one left inside my room, I went down to find some popcorn on the cabinet because I was planning on trying to watch a romantic movie. Its very unusual of me but I guess this happens when you get curious of a thing that every girl wants. What's with the four letter word love that most of the girls really want anyway? So I grabbed the popcorn I saw and ran up to my room but stopped in front of my sister's room. I just hope she's taking a bath so that I could sneak up to find a romantic movie. It would really be so embarrassing if she finds this out. I began to knock but haven't heard her respond back. I twisted the doorknob slowly and began to check of she's around but heard the water from the shower flowing. I began to find a romantic movie like a ninja in one of her Nicholas Sparks collection. I didn't read the title but just got a dvd.
