Recap
"so,what was that secret you were going to tell me earlier?"
Chapter 7
"Uh umm i..i don't remember" I lie while stuttering over my words.
She raises her eyebrow at me and says "okay now that you've got that lie out of the way what was it?"
I think for a minute and decide fuck it I'll tell her.
"Um i was going to say I think that I might be bi or something like that i...i..i just don't know yet" i look down in pure awkwardness and embarrassment.
she was silent for a minute before she blurted out "did you break up with Eli?" i looked up in shock as i thought she would be yelling at me for whatever. i made eye contact with her and nodded.we just looked into each others eyes for a bit until she said "wanna get to know each other? cause you're really nice and i could use a real friend" i was shocked but i smiled and nodded.
over the course of the six hours when we were meant to be sleeping i learnt more about this girl than i knew about all my friends and myself combined and i loved it, i love the way her eyes sparkled, even in the dim lighting of my room,when she would talk about something she was interested in like singing or drawing or anything off of the massive list i could recite by heart.in the six hours we were talking the topic of the kiss never came up so i assumed she stopped caring or just didn't want to make it awkward.
it was now 7am and we hadn't caught a wink of sleep and we only realised now because we were too busy getting to know everything about each other.i looked at her in the light of the morning sun peeking through the window and she looked magnificent even with the bags under her eyes she looked like the most precious thing to me.she turned to me probably feeling my stare on her.she saw me looking her in the eyes and she asked me why i was looking at her like that and i simply replied with "you look great in this lighting" she looked away blushing and said "i look horrible, i look dead cause of the lack of sleep"
"sorry" i say feeling like i annoyed her.
"why are you apologising? i loved every minute of it, you're a great listener and when you do talk you're honestly so captivating" i blush at that and say thank you.i sit there for a minute and realise school is going to suck ass while i am this tired and that she'll probably ditch us as soon as we walk in those because of her reputation.i sigh and get up to go check on the guys but before i can go she grabs on my arm and turns me around "where are you going?" at this moment i realise how close we are.
"i'm going to check that the guys have gone cause they got changed at their houses yesterday remember?" she nods and lets go of my arm and i walk to the deserted living room and see a note on the table, it reads
'we left at seven to go home and get ready for school see you there
-Aaron, Stuart and David.'
i nod to myself,sigh and get read for the shitty day ahead. SHIT!!! Eli is gonna be there, fuck.i stand behind the sofa leaning on it with my arms and think about this.after a couple minutes i feel two arms wrap around my waist and a voice asking me if i'm alright.i turn around in Camila's arms and just hug her, she hugs me back without question. I've become a lot more touchy feely but only with Camila because there is something about her that is comforting.we hug for a few minutes and she asks "do you wanna talk about it?" "no we need to go get ready for hell-i mean school" she chuckles and grabs my hand dragging us up to my room.
once i shut the door behind me i turned around to see Camila in only her bra and panties looking for her uniform, my breath hitched in my throat and i stared at ground regaining my breath.when i looked back up she was still almost naked, i calmed my breathing and finally spoke up
"you're uniform is hanging up in the closet, i hung it up yesterday after we changed so it wouldn't get creased" i say slightly regretting it because her being almost naked was a sight to behold.
"thanks" she says with her head in my wardrobe.i realise i should get changed too because we only have twenty minutes before we have to leave.i start to think how i'll i go about this because i don't really want to be almost naked in the room with my crush who would also be almost naked.i am quite conscious of my body even though others would think i look great i still critique myself constantly.i wait for her to leave my wardrobe and i grab my uniform.i look over my shoulder to see her in just her bra and panties and quickly turn back facing the closet, i decide to just get it over and done with and grabbed the bottom of my shirt and pulled it over my head and dropped my pyjama trousers and threw them both onto my bed for me to put away later.
i turn around and see Camila staring at my ass, she notices me looking at her and ducks her head down blushing.After a minute she speaks up and says "can i ask why you're wearing guys boxers and not girl underwear?" i think for a second and decide to go with the simple answer and say "they're a lot more comfortable then women's underwear" she looks at me for a minute then nods and goes to put on her school trousers.
before i can turn around she speaks up again and says "um could borrow a pair of boxers cause i haven't got any clean underwear with me?"
"uh sure i just bought some new ones the other day so they're fresh out of the packet" i say grabbing her a pair and throwing them her way,she caught them and said 'thanks'.After getting dressed she walks out of the room and i finish putting my clothes on.i walk downstairs and see her eating an apple.
"want to leave now? you'll have like 20 minutes to spare to hang about with your friends before registration" she nods and we head outside to my car and we speed off to school, stopping by Starbucks to grab some coffee to help us stay alive today.
once we get to school i get out of the car and open the door for her offering her my hand to help her down from my jeep seeing as it is quite high up from the ground for someone her height.She blushes and takes my hand and carefully steps out the car and i shut the door for her.we start talking about our lessons that we have today as we walk through the school doors.everyone is staring at us and looking at us weirdly.as we make our way to the canteen i speak up and ask her "i'm assuming you're going to go hang out with your friends now right?" she stops for a second and thinks then she shyly says
"can i hang with you guys today?" i nod and say sure but ask
"wait why don't you want to hang out with them?"she sighs and explains how they only hang out with her because she's popular and they want to 'be on top of the social food chain' as they say.
