brenton's girl

twenty three

Leah's Pov-

"Brenton," I whispered crawling up the bed. We were laying in my bed, but the sun shining through the thin curtains had me awake at seven o'clock in the morning. "Psst." I poked his chest and smiled. He was fit, like really fit. He had an amazing body, abs, toned complexion, and hickeys all over the place from last night. "Brenton, its Christmas."

"Baby," he groaned.

"Baby," I mocked.

"Fine, fine. Im up." He opened his eyes, his brown ones capturing my green ones. He winked and sat up, kissing my lips softly.

"No," I jumped off the bed and looked at him. "I have morning breath." He rolled his eyes but chuckled. He followed me to the bathroom and looked at us in the mirror. I was in a pair of Calvin Klein boy shorts and a white tank top. He wore a pair of Calvin Klein boxers and was shirtless.

We both brushed our teeth and I washed my face. "Is everyone else up?" He questioned hugging me from behind. Last night Cason, Carson, Vi, and Ashton spent the night with us. We were all supposed to sleep in the living room but late last night Brenton and I ran up to my room and you can guess the rest.

"I don't know, I just woke up." I said and walked out grabbing a pair of shorts to slip on. "Put on a clothes and lets go check."

Brenton slipped on his red sweatshirt and basketball shorts, then grabbed both of our phones off my nightstand. He passed me mine and we both walked downstairs. "Now we know where they snuck off to." Cason said. He was sitting on one of the couches and had messy bed head.

"Hey, don't embarrass them, they didn't know how loud they were being." Sam said with a smirk. I felt my cheeks light up cherry red. I looked away from everyone and snuck behind Brenton, using him as a shield away from everyone.

"Princess," Brenton called grabbing my hand in his. "Come on." He pulled me from behind him and smiled down at me. My stomach did flips and my heart skipped a couple beats, but I managed to smile back.

"Hi," I whispered. He leaned down slightly and kissed my lips before pulling me on the couch.

"Okay, everyone's up?" My mom asked. She smiled down at all of us and my dad walked in the room still managing to toss on a t-shirt. "Who wants to open presents?" She asked sounding like she was talking to ten year old kids.

"Yes ma'am!" Most yelled while others made a hooting sound. Maybe she was talking to ten year olds. We all climbed in a circle around the Christmas tree and my mom started passing out gifts from her and dad.

I opened my present and it was a ton of gift cards for different stores. Sam, Carson, and Vi also got the same thing. The boys got three different X-box games and a new controller. "Here you go princess." I looked over at Brenton and smiled. He passed me a box that was wrapped in pink wrapping paper and a Christmas bow tie.

I tore the wrapping paper and then opened the matte black box. There were two things inside, a black pocket knife that had silver outlining and a bracelet that had 'daddy's princess' in small cursive letters. I started questioning why he got me a pocket knife until I flipped it over and read the writing on the back.

'Don't make me be mean'.

That's what Brenton said the first day we became friends again. I took his knife and he wanted it back.

Tony didn't waste a single second to tackle Brenton to the floor of our school hallway and punch him once, twice, three times. Brenton pushed Tony off and I saw the pocket knife that landed on the floor, no one was even using it, it must have fallen from one of their pockets.
