Inseparable

Chapter 27

"So, what's the plan?" Angel asks me when he pulls in to the front of my house.

"If my dad or Betty don't leave for the night or something, I may just have to sneak out and have you pick me up again." I tell him. Gathering my my books back in my arms and adjusting my bag.

"Alright, do you want me to pick you up at a specific time?" He asks.

"I'll text you," I inform him and he nods. I pucker my lips to him and he leans across the console to kiss me. Our kiss lingers a bit longer than we intended until I pulled back and opened the passenger door. I wave goodbye to him before walking up the front stairs. By the time I make it to my bedroom, my phone vibrates. I unlock it and receive a message from Angel.

*Wear something sexy. ;)* The message reads.

I replied back with a wink emoji and soon place my phone on my dresser to charge.

I grab a change a clothes before heading to the shower. Luckily, I didn't see my father in the living room but when I hear his snoring from down the hallway, I know that he is taking a nap in his room. A smile forms onto my face as I lock the bathroom door and turn the shower on. Once it's warm and ready, I strip out of my clothes and step into the bathtub. It's almost as if I am so tense but the warm water seems to soothe my muscles. I bathe for a good ten minutes before wrapping my wet body with my towel.

When I make it back to my room, I scan through my underwear drawer to decide what undergarments I should I wear. Something sexy, I tell myself. I catch a quick glance of a red lace lingerie with some panties that match with it. When I pull the pair out to get a good look, I immediately feel my checks heat up.

"Perfect," I say and put the undergarment on. I don't want to expose myself too much if I go downstairs or if Betty comes and stops by so I put on a red tank top along with a white plain jacket. I blow dry my hair after putting some good hair products that makes it less frizzy or more shiny. I'll never understand commercials that persuade people so desperately to buy their products. I find everything the same. When I am done with my hair, I put on some mascara and a little bit of foundation with some blush. I check the time and it is already five twenty-five.

Thank God I don't have any homework today. I always like to finish everything during class so I don't have to worry about it when I get home. I pull out one of the books I checked out earlier today and begin to read. I hadn't noticed that my eyes were getting heavy until fall asleep, nearly taking a nap for about two hours. I jolt from my slumber and checked the time. It is already seven. I wonder if my dad is up? Or if Betty stopped by? I pull my blankets off me and head downstairs. By the time I make it to the living room, garlic bread invades my senses and my stomach growls. I'm starving!

I hear a few clangs from the pans and notice Betty in the kitchen with her cute pink cupcake apron on. She looks up at me from her cooking and a smile is immediately plastered on her face.

"Looks like someone just woke up from their nap," she winks at me before being her attention back to her cooking.

I head my dad chuckle. "Long day?" He looks up at me from his laptop.

"You bet," I sigh. I walk over to Betty and give her a hug as she gives me one back.

"Food will be ready in a couple minutes. I'm making some pasta!" Betty states.

"Looks yummy," I lick my lips at the beautiful sight in front of me. Who doesn't love food?

After spending a good hour or two with my dad and Betty, I dismiss myself for the evening, having them aware I will be finishing up my 'homework' as they continue eating and watching Titanic. I know how much they love true event stories or romance ones. Those are one of the main things they have in common. I head back into my bedroom and fix myself up before I text Angel. I brush my hair and apply some perfume and mascara on. I text Angel to have him be on his way right now. He replies back saying he is on his way.
