Finally 18 (girlxgirl)

Chapter 28

.A week later.

"Make me some popcorn?" I smile at Ethan.

"Will you share with me?" he asks.

I shrug. "Maybe."

"Then I may make you some popcorn."

"What'll it take?"

"Sex."

"Deal."

"Really?" he smiles.

"No. Make me popcorn."

"Fine, but only because you're getting married in a week."

"I'm getting married?" I ask.

"Yeah, you."

"Well, who am I marrying?"

He shrugs. "Who do you wanna marry?"

..is that a trick question?

"You," I quickly say before the stubborn part of my mind could speak her mind.

"Well, there's no ring on my finger," he says.

I laugh. "Do you want one?"

"OMG, I THOUGHT YOU'D NEVER ASK!" he jokes.

I laugh again and walk over to him, pulling off my engagement ring and trying to slide it on his ring finger.

Doesn't work.

"..it doesn't fit," he says.

I smirk. "Sucks for you," I say, sliding it back on my finger.

He chuckles. "You're too kind."

I roll my eyes as the doorbell rings. I glance down at my appearance. I have on neon pink yoga shorts and a gray sweatshirt, my hair in a loose ponytail. I guess I can answer the door.

"I got it," I say, walking to the door. I open it to Alex. "Alex!" I smile. What's she doing here?

"Heyy," she smiles back. "Mind if I hang here for a week?"

"A week, why?"

"The wedding's in a week, right?" she asks.

"..ohh, yeah! Ohh..yeah, sure. C'mon in."

She smiles and walks in, yawning.

"Why not just stay at a hotel?" I ask.

"Uhh-"

"Heyy, it's Ally!" Ethan says, coming into the living room.

"Who the fuck's Ally?" Alex snaps.

"You, right?"

"My name is Alex."

"Of course. Sorry."

She ignores him and reaches into her jacket pocket, pulling something out.

"It's cool if Alex stays over for a little, right?" I ask.

"Sure, yeah. How long's a little?"

"A week," I say.

"For the wedding?" Ethan asks.

"Yep," Alex sighs.

"Sounds fine. It'll be like a week long sleepover. Who wants to talk about bras?" Ethan says, raising his hand.

I roll my eyes. "Go brush your hair," I laugh, pushing him into the bedroom and closing the door.

I turn back to Alex who has the most disgusted look on her face.
