My Cowboy

Chapter 23

"Seriously? Are you for real? Get up," Elize is laying on the floor, pretending to be passed out. Why you might ask, well long story short I told her and the rest how me and Zach kissed, and now she's overreacting. Big. Time. Whereas the rest are just sitting there, completely normal. Okay, maybe not normal since Zoey, Alex and Will are sitting there with their mouths wide open, like I swear to God, their chins will touch the floor any second now. Chase and Sasha on the other hand are congratulating me, which is weird but it's better than the others.

"Guys come on! Stop being weird, it's not that big of a deal."

"No? Why did you tell us then?" Will asks.

"Because I know Elize would kill me if I didn't, and you know that just as well as I do so don't you dare argument against me, okay?" He nods and they finally shut their mouths.

"So, tell me about it. Was it good? Amazing? With tongue? Did it blow your mind? Give me all the details!" Elize has woken up from being so-called, passed out. I tell her that it was good but it didn't blow my mind, because when does it actually do that? I also add that there was some tongue, but only a little since it wasn't a make out session, just some goodnight kissing. Elize is in ecstasy for this little, I wonder how she'll be if it turns into something more, hopefully she won't go mad, but who knows?

Later that night I'm in middle of popping popcorn for a Game of Thrones-marathon with Nate when someone knocks on the door. I go and open it and suddenly my face is no more than 5 inches from Zach's face.

"Uh, hi, what are you doing here?" I ask him but before he has a chance to reply Nate answers for him.

"I invited him over, though it'd be nice with another person, and Cam might come by for some time too, not sure though cause he's having a night in with Erika."

"Oh, so you just decided to invite your friends over without telling me? Wow, thank you so much...," my voice is dripping with sarcasm.

"Aw, but it's only me princess, I promise I won't do anything too bad to annoy you, it'll be fun, okay?" Zach tries to make it better but I can't help but roll my eyes, because we all know he'll be super annoying. But hey, I'll give him a chance.

"Fine but you two will have to find the candy and bring the soda to the room," I turn my back and walk into the kitchen to fetch the popcorns before they can protest.

After some time, they finally come down with the candy and soda and we can finally start watching. I press play and the Game of Thrones theme song starts playing. After some time, I feel Zach moving closer to me in the sofa and I groan, does he have to? I try to push him away but he doesn't move an inch even, ugh. He doesn't do anything else though so I relax and focus on the current episode but then I start to feel a hand playing with my hair.

"Seriously? Can you not?" I whisper to him but he just smiles and shakes his head. I take a deep breath and decide to let it go and reach for some popcorn, only to find that the bowl is empty. Yes! My chance to get away from Jerkface, oops, meant Zach.

"I'll go make some more popcorn, I'll be back in a few," I declare and stand up to walk to the kitchen. Well there I groan and ask myself out loud why he has to be so annoying, but of course I get no answer, which is good because otherwise I'm probably going mad.

When I get back to the movie room I make my way to sit in the armchair instead but when I'm walking past Zach his arm shoots out and grabs my leg, preventing me from moving any further.

"Where do you think you're going? You're sitting here with me," he declares and drags me down next to him, with no space between us. Why? We continue to watch but then Nate leaves to go to the bathroom, making him Zach smirk and me sigh, here we go.

"So, princess what do you think of repeating last night later? Or now if you'd rather," he asks and I reply with no.

"Oh, no? But I'm sure you want it, am I not right?" I sigh, why does he has to be so persistent? And why does he know me so well? Honestly I don't even know why I'm trying to tell him no, and myself too, I mean I obviously like him, he's nice, and cute and has great self-confidence, which might not be a good thing, though. Oh, and he's great at football and pretty hot, oh, who am I kidding, he's more than hot.

"Hello, is there anyone home in there?" He knocks softly on my temple to gain my attention again.

"I guess we'll see, huh?" I smirk, it's my time to play with him. He groans.

"Can't you just say yes, and stop playing hard to get?" I smirk and shake my head.

"I'm not playing hard to get, I honestly don't know, okay?" I do know though, but he doesn't have to know that now, does he? He pouts and I laugh.

"Aww, don't be sad," I can't stop myself from pinching his cheeks, he's just so terribly cute. However, he doesn't like it though because he frowns and threatens to tickle me if I don't stop, his hands hovering by my waist.

"Nuh uh," I wave my pointer finger before him and grabs his hands and put them in his lap. When I try to release his hands and take mine back he grabs them and doesn't let go. I sigh but suddenly an idea pops into my mind, I move my head closer to his and licks my lips, while looking at his. I lean in to kiss him but right when our lips are about to touch I move my head and kisses his cheek instead, making him groan.

"Care to explain what is going on between you two?" Nate comes back.
