Stomach Tied in Knots (on hold xx)

Chapter 16

I moved back slightly, a grin forming on my lips. 

he dropped his hands from my hips and turned around, walking outside. 

I followed him out and watching as he took out the cigerette pack from his pocket. He took one out and put it in his mouth, lighting it with the small green lighter he bought at the station. 

He took a long drag. I watched as he closed his eyes while the smoke came out of his nose. 

"You know.. for most girls, smoking is a turn off." I say quietly. He opened his eyes, his hand midway to his lips. 

"it is, hm?" He said, taking another drag. I nod slightly, watching him closely. He drops the cigerette and steps on it. I watch as he kicks it off the porch and moves towards me. 

Grabbing my waist, he pulls me towards him. My arms go up to his chest, preventing any more closeness. 

He lets out a chuckle, sending a half smile my way. 

"You can't just kiss me whenever you feel like it." I said in a small voice, looking down. 

"Oh i can't?" He asked, a cocky smirk playing on his lips. 

I shake my head firmly. He kisses my cheek lightly and grasps my arm, moving them away from his chest. He kisses me on the corner of my mouth and wraps my arms around his neck. 

"Can i?" He whispered against my lips. Instead of answering, i press my lips to his. He reacted quickly, moving one of his hands and wrapping it around my waist and cupped my cheek with the other. 

"I'll take that as a yes." he mumbled before kissing me again. 

-

"Holly shit." I said, covering my eyes with my hand. Shane let out a laugh beside me, wrapping his arm around my shoulder. 

"It's just a movie." He whispered, kissing my head. 

"Shuttup." I muttered under my breath. 

We were watching silent hill and i was absolutely terrified. I got up, marching towards the tv and shut it off. 

"Scared?" Shane raised his eyebrow, throwing me an amused smile. 

"No.. i just.. don't enjoy movies that have armless creatures." I say in a little voice. 

He chuckled and got up. "Do you think they'll come back soon?" He asked, walking towards me. I shrugged, looking everywhere but him. He stopped when he was an inch away; i could feel his hand brush against mine.  I held my breath as he took my hand in his.  

He didn't kiss me like i expected him to, he just stared at me, his cheeky smile turning into a poker face. 

"What?" I finally asked, furrowing my eyeborws. 

"Nothing." He let go of my hand and walking back to the couch, plopping down on it. I frowned in confusion.  

I sighed in frustration and plopped down beside him. 

"Hey can i borrow your ipod?" I asked in smal voice. Shane just shrugged and reached into his pocket, pulling out his ipod and earphones. He tossed them to me and i smile in gratitude. I plugged the earphones into my ears and played the first song. 

I listened to his songs in silent. Most songs i knew, and those i didn't i still liked. 

"A big papa roach fan huh?" I asked as i scrolled down the endless papa roack songs. He nodded silently. 

"Found an outlet by the way." He said, pointing at the kitchen. 

"in the kitchen?" I aksed, just to be clear. He nodded. I got up and grinned, rushing to get my phone and charger. 

I found the output easily and plugged it in. 

"Thanks." I said, walking back into the main room. "Are you hungry?" I asked. He looked up at me a werid look in his eyes. "Well i'm gonna make some sandwiches... want one?" He didn't answer so i just sighed and went back to the kitchen. "What's his deal now?" I muttered under my breath. 

I made three peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and sat beside Shane on the couch, placing the plate infront of us. Shane didn't even glance at them. 

"What's wrong now?" I asked, crossing my arms across my chest. He didn't answer and turned on the tv. "What the hell, Shane?" I groaned and pushed him. He didn't react and that angered me. "You can't keep doing this." I said, my voice quavering. I bit my lip. "Fine, whatever." I got up, walking to the bedroom. I walked back out and glared at him. "Just tell me what i did so i can atleast apologize or something." I say, my voice going quieter after each word. "Asshole." I say, turning around and slamming the bedroom door shut. I sighed and layed down on the bed. I close my eyes after getting sick of staring at the plain ceiling.

I hear the door squeak open but didn't open my eyes. The bed dipped on one side as someone, Shane, sat down. I peeped one eye open and closed it as i saw how close he was. 

I heard him chuckled and felt a hand travel up my thigh. I jerked up and threwhim a glare. He just stared with an amused expression. 

"Are you bipolar or something?" I asked, glowering at him, my cheeks flushing. He just shrugged and removed his hand, which was still on my thigh. "Jeez Shane." I said, covering my face with a pillow. 

"I was just.. being weird, ok?" He finally said. 

"You're always being weird." I mumbled through the cushion. I heard him chuckle and pull on the pillow. I let him remove it from my grasp. He covered my hand with his and squeezed gentlly. "You're really confusing." I say, mostly to myself. 

"How's that?" He said, raising his eyebrows in amusement. 

My cheeks flush.. he wasn't supposed to hear that. "Um.. no reason.." I say, trailing off. 

He half smiled and leaned in. "Tell me." He said, his mouth close to my ear. 

"It's just.." My voice quavered and i gulped. "One minute you want to kiss me the other you're ignoring me." I said, my voice getting lower. 

He leaned back, looking at my face. I pursed my lips, waiting for any reaction. 

Instead of saying anything, he leaned in fast, pressing his lips to mine with great force. I fell back from the impact and he pulled away, laughing. 

"You just looked so goddamn cute." He said. 

"This is what i mean." I mummble, sitting up. He let out a chuckle and licked his bottom lip. "What are we doing?" I suddenly ask. His grin fades and his eyebrows furrow in confusion. 

"I don't know." He finally says. I nod, looking down. He sighed, "and honestly? i don't want to know." He said, playing with one of his snakebites.

I raised my hand and he dropped his. I touched the metal. "These make you really attractive by the way." I mumbled, leaning forward a planting a kiss on the side of his mouth. 

I wanted to know what we were. did this make us a couple? did he even like me? Did i even like him?

He wrapped one of his arms around my waist and pulled me to his chest. I was scared he could hear the beating of my heart. We leaned back together and i felt my eyes suddenly grow heavy. 

Oh i most definetely like him.
