Reflection-Anthony Rizzo

0.1

My alarm beeps loud and I groan. Then I think, I didn't set that.. I slowly opens my eyes. "Javy!!" I yell startled by my best friend on top of me. I shove at his abs and say, "Get off of me you big lump of muscles!!" He looks panicked and scrambles off of me quickly. "Just wanted to wake up my best friend in the entire world. Sheesh woman. That arm of yours is strong." I smirk. "I only do what I do best."

I get out of bed, and grab the clothes I had laying out on my dresser the night before. "Javy, you'd better not touch my phone!" I yell over my shoulder as I get situated for the shower. As I'm turning on the water I hear a muffled "No promises!" I sigh and get in the shower, then jump back quickly noticing that my shampoo is dyed green. "Ednel Javier Baez get your ass in here this instant!!" I yell covering up my body with a towel, as Javy smirking walks into the room. "So I'm guessing that your hair is green, eh?" I turn around smirking, "Oh no, my hair isn't green, yours is." And with that I squirt my shampoo all over his head and say, "You might wanna go take a shower before our date later."

Javy storms away muttering curses in spanish under his breath. I grab my extra bottle of shampoo from under the sink and throw out the other dyed one. Javy pokes his green head in. "Hey Hope?" I nod "What?" "Do me a favor and don't use your conditioner I may have put dye in there too." I glare at him. "What color is it?" He smiles "Cubbie blue."

After my shower

I get dressed in a Try not to suck shirt, black jeans, and my cubs converse. "Hey Hope, Rachel's here to see yo- what happened to your hair?" Javy pokes his head in my bedroom. He then walks in and plops down on my bed and waits for Rachel to walk into the room. You see I'm usually a red head, but thanks to having no more conditioner, and me being a person who can't ever not use it, I decided to dye my hair blue. Bright Cubbie blue.

Rachel walks into my room looking at her phone, and Javy counts down from 5 on his fingers waiting for when Rachel notices my hair. "Ok so I have two places that don't know the boys, and th-" she looks up and sees my hair "woah!! Hope what happened to your hair??" I giggle. "Javy didn't warn me about my conditioner." She scoffs. "Yeah right, Javy can never prank you ever since he put that spider in your bed." I shudder and turn away from her. "Why'd you mention that?" I whine. I sit down on Javy's lap and he strokes my now dry hair with his hand.

She shrugs, then her phone beeps signaling a text and she says "It's from Hazel. She wanted to know if Addi and her could come with us." I sigh, "yeah they can come with, just let her know that I might be out of it." Rachel walks over and pats me on the shoulder. "I know Hope I know." I lean into Javy and say "Can we at least get coffee before we go? Preferably Starbucks?" Javy chuckles and nods. "We can't not get the princess what she wants!" I groan. "Javy not this please."

He smirks. "ooo tell me, tell me, tell me!" Rachel says bouncing up and down. Over and over. Again and again. I bury my face into Javy's muscular chest, and wait while he tells Rachel the story. "So this was when Hope here and I were in 5th grade..."

Some odd years ago

Javy

I knocked on Hopes front door. "Oh hello Javy! What a pleasant surprise!" Her mom Amiee Goldveiw says holding open the door so I can walk in. "She won't wake up, now I've tried everything, except you perhaps." I walk into Hopes bedroom to see her covered in blankets and sheets and her pillows everywhere. I climb through the fort we had made the night before and get to where her bed is. "Hope. Hope darling, it's time to get up. That's when her older twin brother, Michael, walks by her door frame and says, the only thing that'll wake her us a true loves kiss."

I sigh and me being 11, decided it was worth a shot. I lean over her and plant a little kiss on her cheek. Her mouth curls up at the corners but still doesn't move other than that. So I plant a kiss on her forehead a little bit longer than the one one her cheek and she blushes. Then I kiss her nose, then I try to quickly kiss her on the mouth, cause I know that's what she wanted all along, but Hope kisses me back then slowly wakes up. "good morning princess."

Present time

Hope

I try my hardest to bury my face even more into Javy's chest. "Shut up. That was a long time ago." I say my voice muffled. Javy places his head on mine and pulls me into him. "are you sure you guys aren't dating?? Cause you sure look like a couple." Rachel says interrupting our moment. I giggle then shuffle in Javy's lap so I'm facing her and say with a straight face, "We've been married for the past 4 years. We secretly did this so no one would know." Rachel looks at us confused and asks, no whines, "But why didn't you tell me??"  Javy and I look at each other at the same time and I can't help it. I burst out laughing and Javy chuckles too. Rachel looks at me with disbelief on her face. "You you, I'm gonna kill you!" Then she sees Javy wrap his arms even tighter around me and giggles. "You guys are dating aren't you?"

We both grin idiotically. "Yep. You're dating." I try to grab my phone that's on my nightstand but can't reach it. I look up at Javy who in return grabs it for me and I peck him on the lips. "Thanks babe." I say and snuggle back into his chest.
