Chapter Seven: "I Thought We Were Together!"

Carmen left and I was terrified to go see Ian. I ended up just walking out and burying myself into Ian's arms. He rubbed my back and didn't ask me what was  wrong. I squeezed him and he brought me to the couch. I ended up sitting on his lap and he nuzzled my neck. "I'm going to get your mind off of whatever it is that you're upset about." He whispered. He placed a gentle kiss on my lips and I turned to straddle him. His breathing hitched and I kissed him again. 

I ran my fingers through his hair and he pressed his palms firmly against my back. "I love this stupid bowlcut hair." I whispered against his lips and he laughed and smiled. "That's all I needed to hear." He flipped me over and he was on top of me, straddling me and grinning. Fear laced my stomach. What was he planning to do? He reached under my shirt and my breath caught in my throat. He began tickling my sides and I laughed. "No! Ian stop! No more!" In his creepy rapist voice he says, "No lil' girl, you're mine!" I leaned forward and slammed  his lips to mine, making him forget about tickling me. I pushed him back against the couch and laid on him, my head over his chest. I laid my hand over his heart and he laced his fingers with mine. "You can feel my heart beating for you, and only you." He murmured. He kissed the top of my head and I sighed. "Only for me." I murmured. We fell asleep. I had no nightmares.

Ian stroked my hair. "Wake up. Or I'll tickle you awake." 

"Please don't." I whispered. "10... 9... 8..." Ian counted off. "Ian..." I warned. "7... 6... 5... 4... 3... 2..." I jumped up from the couch and ran to Ian's room. Anthony was coming home. "Anthony! Help!" Anthony burst into Ian's room where he was  slowly coming towards me, his fingers hooked  like claws. "I'm gonna tickle you little girl." Anthony smiled and tackled Ian. They fell to the ground in a cat fight, and Anthony came up a  the winner. "Thy fair maiden, I have ended the life of thy pathetic beast. What say of you and I going to eat some gruel?" I laughed. "Oh fair knight. Thou have won thy trust." He took my hand and we leapt over Ian. "But oh knight, thy beast is cute. May we resurrect him?" Anthony sighed. "Go ahead. Give him thy kiss of true love." Anthony looked away and stumbled out the door, appearing heartbroken. 

"Oh beast. How I wish you loved me." I cradled his head in my arms and kissed him gently on the lips. He kissed me back and put his hands on the back of my head. He moved his hands down to my back and I shivered, ending up moaning into his mouth. I blushed pink and pulled away. "That was embarrassing." Ian blushed and rubbed the back of his neck. "Me and Anthony are going to go film. You can hang out here or go somewhere else. Either one is fine."

I decided to leave, to apologize to Scott. I dialed his number and he picked up. "Are you calling to tell me you have a boyfriend? If so then lay off." His voice was laced with poison. "Scott... I called to say I was sorry. I ... overreacted." I began walking home in the sunlight. He didn't respond to me and I sighed. "How could you say that? You overreacted? You didn't talk to me for a week, then you rubbed your new boyfriend in my face." 

"Scott I said I was sorry, Carmen told me you liked me and... truth is... I like you too. " He was silent. "Scott?" A female voice replaced Scott's. "Who is this? Do you realize that Scott is my boyfriend and not yours? You made him get up and go to his bedroom. What the hell did you tell him?" I heard Scott yell at the girl, "Mickey. It's okay. We're just friends." He took the phone. "How about we meet up at your house later?" 

"Yeah. Let's go." I smiled. We hung up after saying goodbye and I went into my apartment with a huge smile on my face. Carmen looked back at me. "Did you use protection?" Was the first thing she said. "We didn't have sex!" I yelled. Carmen chuckled and asked me what happened. "Scott's coming over."

"If you two make out then I won't judge you." She joked. I shook my head. "I'm with Ian. I can't do that."

"What if I get him to dump you?" Carmen began texting. "No! Don't Carmen." She sighed. "Alright." She closed her phone, but I noticed she pushed send. Someone knocked on the door. I got up. 

I opened the door and someone crashed their lips to mine. I stumbled back and someone pressed the small of my back so I didn't fall. I pushed whoever it was away. "What the hell!" I exclaimed. Ian was standing at the door. "Oh, sorry! I didn't know who it was. I thought you were... someone else." Ian gave me a weird look. "Were you expecting someone else to kiss you or something?" I shook my head. Ian nodded. "Me and a buddy that you know are going out to eat. His girlfriend is coming, so I thought you could come too."

"She'd love to go." Carmen spoke up behind me. I nodded, agreeing with her. "Good. You should get ready now, I'm supposed to drive you over there in a few minutes. I literally just got told a few minutes ago." Carmen pushed me towards my room. "Scott's going to be on that date. Mickey is coming along. I know personally his favorite color is baby blue. (I'm not sure if this is true.) I know you have a really pretty blue dress that looks amazing on you."

"I'm going to impress Ian, not Scott." I grabbed a black denim jacket with a  white dress with a sweetheart neckline that had several thick black zig zags going diagonally across the dress. I then pulled  out leather boots that completed the look. "Come on Chels." Carmen sighed. I shook my head. I put it on then curled the ends of my black hair. "You look hot. Give yourself a shadowy eye." She winged my mascara and gave me petal colored lips. "Ready." She smiled. She pushed me out the door and I fell into Ian's arms. "Sorry." I said while glaring at Carmen. Ian laughed and took my hand, leading me to his car. "You look beautiful." Ian said with a gentle smile.

We drove to an Italian restaurant that (thank goodness) wasn't Olive Garden. Ian held my hand the whole time and he waved to a man that was getting out of a silver car. That looked familiar. I saw Mickey get out and smile at Ian, but when she saw me she glared daggers. I saw the familiar blonde hair and my heart dropped. I was going on a double date with Scott and Mickey.
