The Changing{put on hold}

Chapter 16

Skylar's POV:

I feel myself get nervous at what he has to say but sit down anyway. As Kody gets in and starts driving he speaks.

"This is stupid" he says.

I feel a lump in my throat at the sound of his words. "Oh" I say glumly.

His eyes jump to mine at my tone.

"Oh my god Ky! Not like that!" he reassures me.

"What then?" I question.

As he speaks he let's out a heavy sigh "I feel like we are moving backwards, ya know?

My heart grows at his concern of this relationship going backwards.

"Plus, I think we should be official before we makeout like that again" he adds, wiggling his eyebrows.

I start blushing at his use of words but quickly respond: "Well who said we will do that again?"

He looks sideways at me but puts his eyes back on the road as he speaks, "You're funny, you know that right?"

I laugh at his statement and ask him a question as we pull up to my house. "Where are you going with this anyways?"

He turns fully to face me, turning off the car. "Skylar Marie Wes, will you give me the honor of taking you out on our very first date?" he asks, looking me dead in the eyes.

"No"

I see his face fall and bust up laughing.

"I'm just kidding! Absolutely!" I say catching my breath.

"That's not funny" he says pouting.

"Yes it was" I say while leaning over and pressing my lips on his.

Before he has time to adjust I pull away. Opening the car door, I run up to my house door and wave to him.

I see his pissed off face and blow him a kiss, making him smirk.

Turning back to my house, I rush up the steps and open my door.

I come in and am surprised to find the house dark. I obviously missed dinner, but nobody came to get me.

∆

After getting a quick bite to eat from the kitchen I head upstairs and get ready for bed. Looking in the mirror I take in my ruffled appearance and am immediately grateful that my parents weren't up.

My messed-up hair, smudged makeup, and late curfew just screamed "Sex". Although it didn't happen, my mom wouldn't accept any excuse.

But looking at myself I see something, something in my eyes make me look wild. Like a true teenager, doing teenager things. Things that make you feel alive, things like making out with your ex best friend.

As I'm putting my curly hair in a ponytail for bed I freeze, what's there blatantly obvious? Three good sized, deep purple hickeys.

I immediately let my hair down and press on the tender skin, making myself wince. Smiling smugly to myself, I quickly get into bed and fall into a dreamless sleep.

∆

Im awoken by my mother shaking me from my sleep.

"Skylar hunny, Demetri wants you to stop by before you go to the lab today." she says, realizing I'm awake.

"O-Okay" I stutter, trying to get her out.

"Hurry please" she says as she walks out.

Groaning I get up and walk to my mirror. Brushing my hair and rubbing the sleep from my eyes I head to the bathroom to do the necessities.

∆

After I'm decent and dressed I walk down to the kitchen, where my family sits.

I take a seat next to Jax and poke him, earning a giggle and another poke.

As my mom sets down breakfast, I start to make faces at Hayden across the table. She squeals with glee and bangs on the table.

"Skylar can you just stop? I've got a headache" my father scolds.

"Maybe you're hungover, you were gone all day" I fire back, stuffing my face with eggs.

"That's none of your concern, and dont you have somewhere to be?" he puffs angrily.

"Actually I do" I say while standing from the table. I go over and kiss mother goodbye, and then I walk out the door.

∆

I reach Demetri's house in no time and go inside, not bothering to knock.

Inside I'm greeted by a frightened Mrs. Young cooking at the stove, but at soon as she sees me storming up the stares she relaxes.

I have a sudden sense of déjà vu as I reach De's door. I push it open and find him on his bed, sketching.

"What did you want?" I ask quickly, panting.

"Oh... hey Sky" he says, shielding his drawing from me.

"I'm not gonna try and sneak a peak, dont worry. What's up?" I ask, sitting beside him on the bed.

"Oh okay, I wanted to talk about you and Kody" he says blatantly.

"Okay, what about us?"

"Uh, how about what the fuck is happening?" he asks smiling.

As I open my mouth he starts speaking first.

"And what, in the actual fuck, are those?" he asks, pointing to my neck.

I stare wide eyed at him as he leans forward, inspecting them.

"Holy fucking shit" he breathes.

"I can explain" I say stupidly.

"What's to explain? My little best friend got it in last night!" He practically shouts.

I cringe at his words and reassure him "All we did was kiss, plus his parents came home"

He just stares at me, smirking and then suddenly pulls me into a big hug.

"Sky I'm so happy that you are happy but think about all the bad things he has brought into your life." he says, sadly.

"I know, but I forgave him"

"Okay"

"Thanks for not judging me De"

"Oh no, I'm judging you. You have to be crazy to fall for a douchebag like that."

I think about it for a second; "Hey De?"

"What?"

"Call me crazy."
