The Aftermath (on hold)

Chapter 6

Juliet’s POV:

I noticed Xavier looking me over constantly, he even started showing off for me I could tell and I loved every bit of it in some way. I decided to tease him in a way so seeing as how he was like a dog to a bone I slowly took off my cousin’s shirt that she let me borrow that covered almost every inch of me from my knee up. I burst out laughing at his reaction for it seemed like he would need to hold his mouth and tongue if it weren’t attached fully. I slipped into the water and took advantage of him not paying attention so I decided to mess with him. I swam silently up to him grabbed his butt and swam away as he almost grabbed my ankle, it’s like he knew. He was about to pull me towards himself but he stopped because he saw my cousin Stephen, who he mainly calls yogi. You could see the respect when he looked at them but what Xavier didn’t know was that Stephen was as respectful of him as he was. They taught each other a lot you could tell from how they have an unbreakable brother like bond. Still Xavier continued to flirt with me later on and I had no issue. Yet you could see the hesitation in his every movement near me.

Xavier’s POV

I notice Yogi watching me as I moved close to Juliet yet don’t do anything while he is watching but she constantly is doing something behind my back and I just barely grab hold before she leaves. But to my surprise Stephen (Yogi) calls me over and tells me to go ahead and see if I can Juliet’s interest. Now I think the game is on. I immediately run do a front flip and go from the splash to chase her down but I see her in the deep water barely able to stand so I come up behind her and grab her picking her up to help her stay above the water. Stephens’s mom comes out saying for us to get out that Juliet and the rest of her family from Miami are leaving soon I was hoping they would forget but they didn’t seem to. We got out the water and I immediately looked towards Juliet to see her looking back at me. I’m wondering how do I get her to like me more since it seems that she has an interest. I want her to be mine forever, to be there when no one else is, to spend my nights with, many a thing. We walked the short walk from the pool. We all went upstairs to change out of our wet clothes I went up last. I look around see what everyone is doing, Yogi and Kelvin are in the bathroom. His sister is wandering around as per usual but what caught my eye was Juliet standing in the doorway to yogis sisters room dancing for only me to look. I stare in disbelief and trying to decide whether to go to her or ignore it. Whether its worth the beating or not but I chose not to I just went to yogis room and changed back into my jeans and polo. I really want her now but how??

Juliet’s POV

I saw Xavier struggle to not come into the room with me I wonder what we have done. I just wish I had more time in Orlando. I wonder if Xavier is like yogi makes him out to be. I can see the he is serious when he needs to be. But playful and fun whenever he can be. After he struggled to say no to me I get dressed and go down stairs there was Pollo Tropical just cause were Spanish then I see Xavier hanging off to the side I pass by him and give him a little smile. I could see the twinkle of interest in his eyes when I smiled at him. After everyone finishes eating my family said we had to go to the shuttle stop. I heard Xavier say that he would come with us and I started to smile and he asked who wanted to go with him. Before I could I answer his question Stephen comes barreling down the stairs I immediately see Xavier run away as he is being chased and picked up like nothing.  You could see the closeness these two share its like their brothers that even though Xavier is older he is more immature and playful and it rubs off onto Stephen who is more built and bit taller. As Xavier is being carried like a toy he glances at me and says “this doesn’t always happen hes only doing this cuz he wants shotgun and knew I was gonna ask if you wanted that seat. Hes really greedy bout his chair.” “You best believe I am bruh it literally says YOGIS CHAIR for a reason. Now let me get ready and Juliet get in his car, you too Kelvin.”

Xavier’s POV

As soon as Stephen picked me up I got annoyed slightly because I hate when shows how little I weight to him ima get him back later. But I stopped caring bout what he had done when he said for Juliet to go with me. I tried to hide a smile but I just couldn’t it spread from ear to ear. I take the grin off my face but had a cocky smirk bout me. I tell Juliet and Kelvin to come with me and get in the car.  I tell Kelvin to go ahead of us while I slow down to talk to Juliet. As I do I see her breath catch in her throat she trys to look cute without looking nervous but I can see though it and find it cute. I step up to her and not knowing what to do with my hands I shove them into my pockets while im speaking bout a mile a minute. Its when she giggles that I stop and I start to concentrate “So um Juliet you sure you cant stay any longer I could take you down to miami its not a problem to me….” “I would love to stay but I sadly cant. Its complicated to explain so lets just go and maybe talk bout it later…” I felt someone defeated by I could tell she didn’t like what she said either. I let it go and got in my car I then was waiting for Stephen to come so we could go because his other family had already left. He then comes out with his shoes in his hand saying “I found them!!!” I didn’t understand what he meant but told him to just get in the car. As soon as he gets in I gun into first as everyones adjusting to the whiplash I blast into second. My modded RX-8 can reach 60 within the middle of second gear I hear everyone screaming to stop as I weave my car though the traffic in my way catching up to stephens mom. As I see her I start to slow down and everyone lets go of each other and whatever they were holding. We soon arrived at the shuttle station I parked closest to the exit. As we got out Juliet grabbed my wrist and pulled me towards her saying “now we can talk, wait til everyone else leaves first so they don’t hear us.” “Alright well they all seem to have left” I reply as I look at everyone ignoring us not there and as Juliet moved up to the front seat.
