Of Love and Misadventure: A lauren cimorelli Story

FIVE ● LAUREN'S POV

My phone still rang at 4:30 and I still ran to my window to check if Chris is out on the streets, cruising. The excitement I feel quickly turns into sadness as I realize that Chris has an injury, I'm sure he wont be able to go out to skate for awhile.

Its been 6 days since I last saw him; and for that past 6 days, I still check out of the window to see if he's out. He never go for a run. Since I and my sisters have nothing to do today, My friends aren't inviting me for roadtrips, I decided to visit Chris.

It literally took me hours to decide if I really should go to knock on his door and visit him. I was very shy but at the other end of the line, I wanted to see him so bad. I have no Idea why I'm feeling this way. Unaware of my thoughts and my feelings, I put on decent clothes and went down as I walk my way to Chris' front door.

I breathe heavily thinking my nervousness would be lessen. I knocked, my heart was sprinting. Chris opened the door, His eyes widen - speechless, he must be suprised. I looked at him and saw him wearing this really weird frog bedroom slippers. I gave him a smile and greeted "Hey!". He stared blankly on my face said "Hi, So you wanna..." I was waiting for the next word that he was going to say when he grabbed my hand and said "Nahh! You should come in!!" he pull me into their house as he close the door. Their house has a really good interior design. It's modern style and scandinavian touch was combined very well. "Your house looks amazing!" I complimented. He thanked me as he vanish out of nowhere leaving me in the living area.

He asked me shouting, "what brought you?"

I look around and recognized that he was in the kitchen, "I was just gonna check if you're okay"

"Still hurts but it feels a lot better than last week" He shouted back
"Where's your parents?" I questioned him since it feels like it's just us in their house.
"They're out. Probably at the furniture shop again" He explained as he walk in holding a wooden tray with 2 glasses of juice on it.
"you just woke up?" I asked him out of curiousness,
"Yea" he answered, I knew it!
"It's almost 1!" I told him
"Well thats pretty normal for me"He explained as he put the tray on the table infront of us, sat beside me and hand me a glass of juice. He gave me the remote telling me that I can change the channel If I wanted to; but I didnt, I was just too shy.

He asked me If I wanted pancakes but I refused to.

From the corner of my eyes, I can see him looking at me as he took a bite. Out of nowhere, he told me "Saying 'no' to God's blessing huh?" "hmmmm.. This is really really good" I looked at him and saw him chewing it smiling, with his eyes closed. THIS BOY IS REALLY ADORABLE.

"Oh cmon! Gods watching you now miss!" He added.
"Ahhh! Alright! you got me there!" I replied smiling

"Oh well, wishing well." He said. I have never heard that phrase before, It stinks but I laughed at him anyway.

"what did you just say!? Lameeeeeeeeee!" I told him teasing
"Heeeeeeeey! Lame? Me? Whut? Uh-uh! Big no!" He refused
"Yes you are!!" I told him playfully
"Remember, youre in my teritory!" He said with a deeper voice
"Whatever lame-o Chrissy" I told him, I felt comfortable but there's still a little bit of awkwardness
"You sound like my best friend!" He told me as he chew his pancake
"Why? She calls you "lame-o Chrissy" too?" I questioned
He gave me a straight-face look and said "no! with the "chrissy" ew name"
"Chrissy sounds cute" I disagree with him
"Nah, it's not. It sounds really annoying for me!"
"Heyy! That's Christina's name too!"
"Well, it fits in her. Not me"

Suddenly, His iPad rang. Someone's calling him on FaceTime, he answered it. I swear to God I dont want to listen to their conversation but I just couldn't unhear everything. He's just sitting right beside me.
