Complicated Love

Chapter 14

*Dakota's POV cont.*

"Can we talk about this later?" Peter asked. "I want an explanation." "Can we please talk about this later?" Peter asked again. I looked at Eric. I walked over to Peter and grabbed his hand. "Stay away from my boyfriend," I snapped at Eric. Me and Peter walked out of Eric's room. We walked into Peter's room. "Okay tell me what's going on," I said. "Well Eric kinda likes me more than a brother." "And you're just going to let him kiss you and shit?" "If it makes him happy, sure. It's better than beating me. "I guess that's okay." "Well you're gonna have to be okay with it," Peter said. "Okay let's go downstairs," I said, turning around. Eric was standing there. "You will not tell anyone about this. Got it?" he snapped at me. "What would you do if I did?" I asked, taking a step forward. ""Lets just say, your cute little body will be full of glass," he said, smiling. "Don't talk to my girlfriend that way," Peter snapped as he grabbed my arm. He pulled me back and held me. Eric took a step forward. "What will you do if I keep talking to this beautiful young lady like that?" Eric asked. "First off, you..." "Guys. what's taking so long?" Kam asked, cutting off Peter as he walked into the room. Eric walked out of the room. "What was that all about?" Kam asked. "He's on his period," Peter said, chuckling. "Apparently. Let's go downstairs before Phil throws a fit," Kam said. We walked downstairs. "Where were you guys?" Phil asked. "Sorry, we had a little problem with Eric," Peter said. "Alright. What shall we do?" Kam asked. "Basketball?" I asked. They all looked at me like I was crazy. "What?" I asked. "You like basketball?" Peter asked. "Basketball and football. I love them. Why are you guys so shocked?" "Cause you seem too girly for those," Phil said. "You guys think I'm girly?" "Well look at you," Kam said. "Let's go visit my apartment. Shall we?" "Sure," they said. We all got into my car and I drove them to my apartment. We got inside. "Follow me," I said. They followed me to my room. I opened up my closet. I pulled out a couple of trophies from my shelf and handed them to Peter. "Football trophies?" he asked. "First girl to make it on the football team freshman year. You never heard of any girl joining?" "I did but didn't know it was you." "Yup. Look at my clothes." "What's this?" Kam asked. taking my chest out of my night stand. "It's my personal chest," I said, walking over to Kam. He placed it on my bed. "Hooligan? You're a hooligan?" Kam asked. "Yup." Kam opened it. "I never knew you were a hooligan," Phil said. "Peter didn't either till I showed him one night. I can hide my fangirl." "You fangirl?" Peter asked. "Definitely. I almost fainted at one of your concerts cause you looked at me. I have a fan account, too." Kam took out a CDs. "Do you have a CD player?" he asked. "Duh." I walked over to my closet and took out a radio. I gave it to Kam. "It amazes me that you are a hooligan," Phil said. "Well I tried my best to keep it a secret. Peter has a voice of an angel," I said, smiling. Peter smiled. "I'd catch a grenade for you. Throw my hand on a blade for you. I'd jump in front of a train for you. Oohh I would go through all this pain. Take a bullet straight through my brain. Yes I will die for you baby, but you won't do the same," I sang. They looked at me, shocked. "What?" I asked. "Your voice," Kam said. "Is amazing," Peter continued the sentence. "I'm not that great," I said, blushing. "Don't say that. Your voice is beautiful. Sing another song," Peter said. "Like what?" "It Will Rain," Phil said. I walked over to the CD player and changed it to It Will Rain. I waited till the chorus. "Cause there'll be no sunlight, if I lose you baby. There'll be no clear skies, if I lose you baby. Just like the clouds, my eyes will do the same if you walk away, everyday it will rain, rain, raiinnn," I sang. They looked at me in awe. "Your voice is like an angel," Peter said. "What about your voice?" I asked, playfully hitting him. "Mine isn't that amazing." "Sing for us," I said. "Nah it's fine." "Come on, bro," Phil said. "Okay fine." Peter took a deep breath. "Cause there'll be no sunlight, if I lose you baby. There'll e no clear skies, if I lose you baby. Just like the clouds my eyes will do the same, if you walk away everyday it will rain, rain, raiiin," Peter sang. "Now that's a voice of an angel," I said, smiling. "I love you," Peter said. "I love you, too." Peter hugged me. I hugged him tightly. "You guys are couple goals," Phil said. "Who knew you two would end up together?" Kam asked. "I'm glad we are together. She keeps me going. She never gives up on me," Peter said, looking at me. "I couldn't give up on you. No matter what you do, I still love you," I said, laying my head against Peter's chest. "Goals," Phil said. I looked up at Peter. He looked down at me and kissed my forehead. "Let's go play basketball," Peter said, letting go of me. "There's a court here and I have a basketball," I said, walking over to my closet. I grabbed a basketball. "Let's do this," I said. We walked outside. We got to the basketball court. "Alright who wants to be my partner?" I asked. They all raised their hand. "Kam, you're on my team," I said, looking at Peter. "Woah babe, my name is Peter, not Kam. "No, Kam is my partner. I wanna go up against you," I said. "Alright, let's do this," Kam said. We got into our stances. I looked over and saw a couple of people walking towards us. "Peter," I said, walking towards him. Peter looked over at the guys. I hid behind Peter. "Hello," one of the guys said as they came up to us. "Hi," Peter said. "We were wondering if you would like to play a game of basketball with us." Peter looked at me. "Sure," I said. "Okay so you four against us four?" the guy asked. "Sure. I'm Peter. This is Phil, Kam, and Dakota." "I'm Luke. This is Max, Kyle, and Adam." "Okay let's do this thing," Kam said. We began playing basketball. They were really good at basketball. It was fun. I went to go shoot a basket when Kyle knocked me to the ground. I looked up at him. "Dude, this isn't football," I snapped. "Calm down. I didn't do it on purpose." "Are you okay, baby?" Peter asked, helping me up. "Yes, I'm fine," I said, sighing. "You know, you could've apologize to her for hitting her," Peter said. I'm sorry," Kyle said. "Bro, she's a girl. You don't knock girls down. They are too weak," Max said. "Excuse me?" I asked. Anger began to built up. "I'm sorry but it's the truth," Max said. "You know you have a lot of nerve to..." Peter was interrupted by his phone. "Eric wants me home," Peter said. "This isn't over," I said, glaring at them. We walked away. We all got into the car. "That guy had a lot of nerves," I said, angrily as we got to Peter's house. "Don't dwell on it. He's being stupid," Peter said. "I know," I said, sighing. "I love you," Peter said, kissing my cheek. "I love you, too." "I'll talk to you later." "Okay." "Bye Dakota," Phil and Kam said, getting out of my car with Peter. "Bye." I left.
