When we got to the mall I was rudely awoken by a rolled up newspaper in the face. Repeatedly. Hitting my nose. Now, I'm walking the halls of the mall with a red beaten up nose and an attitude. Alex chuckled on the side. "You should have gotten up when I asked you," She said.
"Well, I was asleep! I didn't hear a thing!" I crossed my arms and looked into a store we were passing. I saw a familiar mop of brown hair, but didn't mind to too much. It was just a quick glimpse as we passed and then it was gone as soon as it came.
"Aaawwwhhh is someone grouchy?" I heard Peter coo from next to me. I narrowed my eyes from over my shoulder.
"Yes," I said. I threw my hood over my head again, getting cold. "Happy Birthday, too." I added, then looked away. I could feel his smile radiating from behind me.
"Thank you." He mumbled. Alex then let out a noise she only makes when she thinks something is overwhelmingly adorable.
"Shut it, Alex!" I grumbled, only to get coo'd at about how cute my face is when I'm angry. Which pissed me off more. Peter was in the background, blushing and laughing at us. His eyes held something I couldn't recognize.
~~~
"When are we going to eat?" I whined. Peter chuckled and Alex glared at me, once again today for who knows the number of times. It wasn't like a death glare, it was a 'you need to fucking shut up but not really because your idiocy makes me laugh' glare. If that makes sense.
"We'll get food now. The court is right there." She pointed to her left and I booked it around the corner, leaving her and Peter behind.
"CALEB YOU ASS-" I heard Alex yelling from behind me. Then, I accidentally ran into someone and fell on my ass. Typical. Alex said ass and I fall on mine. I rubbed my back, because damn that hurt.
"Oh shit I'm so sorry- wait, Caleb?" I looked up to see a very familiar yet famous face in front of me.
"Oh my god." I was dumbfounded. After about a minute of me sitting there, staring at the boy who knocked me down, I staggered up quickly from the ground realizing I looked absolutely ridiculous.
"Yes!" I heard Alex from behind me, her little 'click clacks' from her shoes getting louder. "You came!" She said excitedly.
"Yeah, I didn't have anything to do today so." Daniel shrugged and smiled. That smile I swear I'll die from. But, that's for another time. Right now I was too dumbfounded to die.
Peter came along to our little group a few seconds later, and my gaze fell on him instead of Alex and Daniel chatting away. Peter looked at me with a gentle soft expression, but when he locked eyes with Daniel, it all changed. The expression he held sent shivers down my spine. I looked back over at Daniel and his eyes were narrowed in a slight, yet kind of scary glare. Oh, but Alex didn't notice. That airhead.
"Oh! Daniel this is my cousin Peter!" She pointed at the blonde who was glaring daggers at Daniel, who's hazel eyes had changed to a more green color than a mix.
Peter suddenly plastered on a big smile, sticking out his hand for a shake. "Nice to finally meet you. I heard a lot about you from Alex." Daniel just nodded and shook his hand, firmly from what I saw. Knuckles turning white.
"Woah woah, is there something I'm missing here?" I finally spoke. All three of them looked at me like they didn't know I had been there for the past 5 minutes. First I have to be with Peter, who I don't like much, and then Mr. Stalker boi over here, who I'm still indifferent about.
"WhAt the hEll?!" I said, frustrated.
"Oh! I forgot to tell you I invited Daniel!"
"Yep okay, calling a cab now." I pulled out my phone and turned around, heading towards an exit.
"Nooo!" Alex ran in front of me and stopped me abruptly. "I didn't tell you because I knew you wouldn't come!" She whined.
"The hell I wouldn't have!" She whined again and I sighed.
"I invited him so Peter and I wouldn't be the only ones you would have to hang out with." She argued, in her defense.
"You lair." I chuckled.
"Yeah yeah okay, well maybe I invited him so I could ditch you two and leave you alone together." She said quickly then chuckled nervously at the end.
"Wait wha-" She grabbed my arm and dragged me towards Daniel, pushed me into him, then grabbed Peter and ran off.
"Bye! Have fun!" I stumbled away from Daniel and looked at him, dumbfounded again. He shrugged.
"AAALLLEEEEXXX!"
