Snowing in Summer

Chapter 5

"Chad! Tom! Breakfast is ready!" I yelled, placing the bacon and eggs in place. After a few seconds, I heard footsteps coming from the stairs. Yes, it's in our deal actually: I will do the cooking and the dishes while Tom and Chad will do the laundry and the sweeping. 

""What's for breakfast? I'm hungry!" Chad whined, walking his way towards the table. I rolled my eyes at them and let out a small smile. 

"Bacon and eggs for breakfast, kind gentlemen" I said in a posh british accent. "So, what do you want? Coffee, orange juice, hot coco or tea?" I headed towards the kitchen.

"Coffee please!" The couple said in unison. "Coming right up!"  I grabbed the coffee maker and filled in the 3 mugs. Hey, I need a coffee too, okay? I grabbed the three mugs and walked back to the dining room "Here yah go" I handed them their mugs and dug in on my breakfast. 

After, 30 minutes we got ourselves full and put the dishes on the sink. "So Chad, what's our plan for today?" Tom asked sitting on the counter beside the sink, grabbing an apple. "SHOPPING!" Chad raised his hands and squealed like a little girl. "Uhm, no.." I said dragging the word 'no' 

I realy am not into shopping, to be honest. I mean you'll be walking and standing inside the mall for hours and you'll just end up only buying a pair of shoes or socks.  One time, Taylor, Joe's daughter, forced me to go shopping with her. We spent to whole day walking in and out of the stores; we ended up buying a freaking Mcflurry and Fries. 

"Why? Shopping is fun! C'mon!" Chad said with his "i-shall-drag-you-if-you-will-not-join-us" tone. "Ugh, fine. But you owe me pizza and starbucks" i shrugged my shoulders, rinsing the last plate. 

"Okay! Now, chop chop! Go get ready now!" Chad said, imitating his mother's voice. "Yes mom" I rolled my eyes and wiped my wet hands.

"Come in!" I shouted from the Bathroom and I heard the door open. "C'mon girl! Hurry up!" Chad groaned impatiently. I chuckle back and rinse off the soap that  was on my body.  I slipped on my undies and walked out of the bathroom, wrapping my towel around my body.

"Hurry up! Please!" He whined heading out of the room.  

I slipped on my jeans and my Peter pan hoodie. Well, I'm a Disney dork, what can I say? I bought it on Hot Topic. I grabbed my backpack with my wallet, Too Far book, handkerchief and the keys of the house. I walked out of my room and closed the door.

"Come on, try this! It's not you're gonna die or something!" Tom begged. 

We're inside Forever 21 and Chad decided that he'll buy me tons of dresses. As of the moment, we already picked 5 dresses which Chad and Tom forced me to. I don't hate dresses, it's just I feel so uncomfortable wearing one. You feel me?

"why won't you try it?" I glared at the both of them. They both sighed and gave me a "I'm-gonna-kick-you-out-of-the-house-if-you-won't-try-this" look.

I groaned and forcefully grabbed the dress on Tom's hand and walked inside the fitting room. I heard them say "Yes!" in joy and both gave themselves a high five. I put on the black dress with a white bow tie at the back of it and ribbon on its waist. Yep, I hate to say this but it really looks good on me. I smiled and twirled around to see myself.  

"Now, darling. Come out of the box so that we can see it." I heard Chad called. I walked out of the dressing room and faced the couple. "So?" I gave them a questioned look. 

"You look fabulous" Chad said in awe. "I would so totally hit on you if  I was a straight guy." Tom chimed in.  I blushed at their comments and thanked them. I gave them another twirl and went back to the dressing area to change. 

Once I was done dressing back to my old outfit, I grabbed the dress and walk out the room, handing the dress back to Tom. Chad paid all of the dresses and walked out of the shop.

"So, We're now heading off to home be-" "Wait wait wait, where are we going?" I cut Chad off, without finishing his sentence. "Oh, to the club! We're going to have fun!" Tom clapped his hands like a kindergarten student. 

"Nah, I'll pass. And you still owe me pizza and Starbucks!" I said facing to Chad. He grabbed his wallet and gave me some money. "Here. You buy yourself. And we shall go because we need to get ready and stuff. Bye! Take care!"  Chad said grabbing Tom's wrist and dragged him. "Don't get wasted! i don't want to babysit 2 guys tomorrow!" I yelled

"No promises!" I heard them replied.

I shook my head and went to the nearest book store. I walked in the store and inhaled deeply. 

Ah, yes. The smell of new books. The store was not that small and cozy. The books are arranged according to their categories. I feel like I was a kid, entering a candy store for some reasons.

I was about to wander inside but I bumped into a hard chest, which I assumed belong to a guy. 

"Bloody he- Sorry." A deep husky voice said. 

I shrugged and stepped back. "No, it's fine. I wasn't aware of my surroundings" I looked up and saw the guy's face. His dirty blonde hair was messy but it suits his deep blue eyes. Not to mention, he was wearing a plain navy blue v-neck shirt, a pair of jeans and a pair of top sider shoes. 

"Uh-oh.. Same here" He smiled nervously, scratching his nape. "Uhm.. Yeah.. Well, I have to go find something. Nice bumping on yah" I smiled at him one more time and walked away from him. Well, What would you expect? I can't stand around to strangers, Chad told me that. 

I walked around  the store, trying to find a book titled Grace. After 20 minutes, I finally found it. I walked slowly and happily to the cashier. I paid for the book and walked out of the store. I was about to go to Starbucks since I need coffee, someone tapped my shoulder.

"Hey" The same guy I bumped into earlier greeted me with a smile. 

"Oh, hey! I thought you were gone since you left the store 40 minutes ago?" I asked. "No, not really. I was just waiting for you to come out of the store." He shrugged his shoulders. "Ah, I see." I nodded back.

"So.. Uhm.. Where are you going, by the way?" The guy asked. "Uhm, Starbucks." I answered. "Oh, same here. Wanna walk with me, Miss.." "Lianah. Lianah Autumn Daley" I smiled offering my hand for a hand shake. He chuckled back and shook my hand

"Nice meeting you, Ms. Lianah. I'm Matthew. Andrew Matthew William."  he replied.

"So, you're new here" Matt said sipping on his coffee. I gave him a nod and replied "How did you know?" He placed his coffee back on the table and smiled. "Because of your accent, darling."

I blushed back because he called me darling.I shrugged and took another sip. "Haha.. Well I have to go now."  I said looking at my phone. It's already 4:09 p.m. 

"Oh, okay. Can I have your number or something? I still want to keep in touch, y'know" He asked hopefully. I smiled and grabbed his phone and punched in my number.

"There yah go. And This is now the cue, Hasta Lavista, muchacho!" I smiled and grabbed my bag and my coffee with me and went home.
