Her Deliverance (vol. 2) ON HOLD

Nine

Harry: I've just walked into the kitchen. She's eating my boxed macaroni now. I'm angry.

Me: Damn. Should have taken that too along with your cereal.

Harry: I'm convinced I might have to start cleaning out my food cabinet every time Brad has one of his victims over.

Me: And how often is that?

Harry: Last week he had six different girls over. Two of them were on the same day.

Me: Ah, you'd be going back and forth between the kitchen and your room way too much.

Harry: Maybe I should invest in a mini fridge?

Me: Where would you put it?

Harry: The corner of my room? I have no idea.

Me: Liam keeps his in his closet.

Harry: That's an odd place. Why?

Me: He says it doesn't take up as much room. Plus it's out of sight from any of his roommates. They like to steal from his candy stash.

Harry: I think I might do that. Want to come mini fridge shopping with me soon? It could be cute.

Me: Yes, because comparing the prices between small fridges is so cute.

Harry: More than cute. Adorable. Come with me?

I smile at my screen, biting my lip as I type out my answer.

Me: Fine. But I get an all access pass to whatever you put in that fridge.

Harry: What's mine is yours baby. ;)

I make a weird inhuman noise after reading his text and it draws the attention of Lila and Morgan. I blush furiously and lock my phone, not bothering to respond to him before shoving my phone between my legs. I look towards the TV screen, hoping they won't say anything about seeing me on my phone but I know it's useless when I can feel them both still watching me.

"You finally decided to join us in watching the movie?" Lila says with an arch of her eyebrow and I look at her with my cheeks burning profusely.

"I was watching it." I mumble and Morgan rolls her eyes with a grin, shaking her head while popping a piece of popcorn in her mouth.

"Emma and Liv are already about to get married and you got on your phone just before Feltcher proposed to Emma. You have not been watching it." Lila points out and I frown, glancing towards the TV to see Emma tackling Liv to the ground in the middle of her walking down the aisle. Damn, I did miss most of the movie.

"Well..." I start, thinking of an excuse but I know it's no use when both of my friends give me pointed looks. "Alright fine you caught me. I suck."

"You don't suck. You're just in love." Morgan chides and my eyes widen while Lila nods with a smile.

"I'm not..." I shake my head, feeling my cheeks reddening more than they already were before huffing. "I'm allowed to text my friend."
