Chapter Seventeen

I haven't talked to him for two days straight, and he hasn't made an effort either.

Just as I said it made headlines all over MTV and other social platforms and all he did was shrug.

"It'll pass"

"It'll pass my as-"

My thoughts were cut off when Katie pulled me aside in the kitchen, "what has gotten into you two! you're acting like children!" I sighed placing my head on the counter.

"He tells me to keep up this, don't talk to anyone one of the opposite sex act but he can do as he pleases!"

"Go talk to him or I'm not cooking Alfredo"

"Pshhh you woul- ok I'm going" I sighed walking into the living room to see him sitting on the chair.

I fiddled with my fingers taking a seat beside him.

"hi"

I'm so socially awkward what the hell.

He looked at me rolling his eyes, then going back to texting whoever. I huffed snatching his phone away from him.

"Why do you want to talk all of a sudden?"

"Becau-" his phone dinged and I couldn't help but look at the notification.
Maddison
'Be there in ten, thanks so much for this! I owe you one😘'

"Unbelievable" I hissed throwing his phone at him grabbing a random car key off one of the hooks.

It made better dramatic effect since I was already dressed in a light blue t-shirt dress and simply slid on some white MK flip-flops

"Where are you going?"

"Out" i grunted, I pushed unlock and his cherry red charger lit up. I smile as I climbed in the drivers seat pulling off driving a little into the city with no real destination.

I ended up stopping at a coffee shop, instantly welcoming the sweet scent—I ordered a Frappuccino sitting at one of the booths.

I checked my phone after what seemed the millionth time it buzzed.

Oliver: 9 missed calls 57 unread texts

"I hope this isn't weird but I'd like to say you're stunning" I snapped my head up to meet dark brown ones. "I-I uhm thank you" I smiled

He looked like a knockoff Dave Franco with glasses but he was still familiar, "can I sit?"

I mean it was harmless just a potential friend...right?

"I'm Keith, Keith Nickels" I've seen him before, his dad owns a very successful lawfirm.

"Cecilia, Cecilia Kensington" I smiled

"Ohh, how's about I buy a drink for the princess of robots" I grimaced and he scratched his neck awkwardly.

"Bad joke?" He asked and I couldn't help but snort nodding.

"And I already ordered" I said apologetically—he sighed with a smile, "You're really shooting down my Mr. Smoove"

I chuckled grabbing my drink from the server quickly taking a sip.

"So why are you here alone? Not trying to prod but where's Mr.Bourne?"

"Sightseeing.." I said quickly.. I mean it was partially true he was just with another girl.. that wasn't me.

I mean I'm totally not jealous am I? but he is my boyfriend she's not really any competi-

"Cecilia!" He cut my thoughts off, and I whipped my head towards him.

"Hmm?" He shook his head and blushed "no no, forget it I shouldn't have asked"

I reassured him that it was fine and he could ask again. "I asked if you wanted to hang out sometime? just as friends!" He squeaked out the last part and I smiled.

We exchanged numbers and I left to go home, my phone rang again and I answered without looking already knowing who it was.

"What" I snapped

"Where are you?"

"I don't know, where are you?"

"Cecilia you're acting like a child, Maddison and I are just friends."

"I don't care about whatever you and Maddison have going on! It's just unfair how you set bias expectations!"

"Cecilia-"

"Make me a key, I'm tired of having to knock on my own door" I mumbled

I pulled into the driveway hanging up and spotting a pink punch buggy— I rolled my eyes nearly running into Katie when she opened the door, closely followed by Manny.

"Our shift is over Celi, Don't raise hell please" I laughed and nodding hugging them both.

Closing the door, I instantly made eye contact with Oliver and he advanced towards me.

"Oli-" he engulfed me in a hug and I can't say I didn't like it, he was so soft and warm— I still pushed him away.

"Cooperate Brat" he whispered leaning into my ear, I sighed nodding and when we pulled apart I was met with the glare of Madelyn or whatever her name is.

"Hello Cecilia! I didn't know you'd be here" her smile faltered a little.
"I live here" I said leaning into Oliver's frame that was up against the wall.

"As friends?" I rolled my eyes, "significant others, partners, boyfriend and girlfriend, a couple.. what do you not understand?"

"Oliver never told me he had a girlfriend" she said stepping forward. "He didn't have to, I told you"

"I don't recall, goodnight guys!" She pepped opening the door closing it but not before waving at Oliver.

I gave Oliver a look that would kill if it could and he glared back with the same energy.

"You wanted me to make things clear to her and I did! why are you looking at me like that."

"If you were just friends you wouldn't have to make things clear."

My phone began ringing and we both stared at it.
Keith

"Who's Kei-"

"Hey Keith!"

Oh babyboy.. two can play at that game
____________

This... this was long.

READ IF YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY SHES UPSET!

She's upset at Oliver because she feels that she has no freedom but he has all of it. Referring to the girls he talks to and fraternizes with. Cecilia basically feels like Oliver is keeping her on lockdown but he can talk to or do whatever he wants. She's not jealous.. just feels like it's unfair.

Anywhooo see ya next time!
