The Quarterback lives in my Basement

Chapter 27 - purple jaws and new seat partners

Bella's POV

I woke up surprisingly well rested, I got up to get ready when I realized Steven was in my bed. I repeat Steven Davis the quarterback was in my bed and he kinda looked like what I imagine king Tut would have looked like while sleeping. I shook him gently to wake him up. He blinked once, then twice until his eyes finally landed on mine, the corner of his lip pulled up and I swear I felt that for a good 5 seconds my entire body went numb.

He sat up and placed a small peck on my cheek and got up as I sat their like an idiot not saying anything. A few moments of sitting there trying to get the heartbeat at a normal pace I got up and walked over to my closet.

I picked out my all time favorite pair a skinny jeans from American Eagle. Ok wiggle wiggle, crap they don't fit anymore, I guess that what happens when you get that little pregnant belly pouch. I pulled them off and grabbed a less tight pair and luckily they fit. I then grabbed a pink v-neck and a gray jacket. Quickly I put my hair up into a ponytail and put a little bit of mascara and headed down stairs.

As soon as I turned the corner into the kitchen I spotted Steven at the stove with bacon sizzling in one pan and a pancake in the other. I instantly felt the blood rush to the apples of my cheeks.

"Good morning sleeping beauty" he said taking his eyes off the crisp bacon and looking up at me.

I smile and walk over to the bar stools

"Good morning" I said taking a sit just as he placed a plate of warm flawless pancakes in front of me.

We finished eating and headed for school. We drove up to the school parking lot and I could instantly feel hundreds of eyes on us. He parked the car and I took a deep breath, he must have sensed my nervous because he reached for my arm.

"Don't worry, I won't leave your side" he said. We both then opened our door and started walking to the front entrance. Suddenly he reached for my arm and I jump and look around us and see that everyone we walk by has their eyes glued on us.

"Ignore them" Steven says getting a better grasp of my hand. I try to shake it off and look forward but that is very short lived when I see Katie across the hall glaring at me. I gulp and look down at my feet.

The bell rings just as we enter the main building. Steven walks to to my classroom. We stand outside in the hall and Steven stops and looks down at me but doesn't say a word. He rest his forehead on the top of my head and slides his hands around my cheeks.

"Breathe" he says as he places a small kiss on my forehead. I inhale deeply and let it out. He then gives me a small innocent kiss and walks down the hall. I walk into the classroom and instantly spot Carter trying to balance a pencil on the tip of his nose, typical Carter.

"don't poke an eye out" I said taking a seat.

"Oh hey Bella...so are you and Steven like a thing now?"

" Um yea pretty much, I hope it doesn't bother you"

"No of coarse not, like I said I only want you happy and Steven's a good guy. But if he ever hurts you I'm going to have to kill him" he says has a finally is able to balence the pencil.

" yea I know" I said flicking the pencil off his nose.

The rest of the class went surprisingly fast. And before I knew it I was out the door and walking to my locker. I put in the combination, when suddenly I felt arms wrap around my waist. I turn my head and see Steven standing behind me, I smile and turn my attention back onto the books in my locker.

" Well you look at the two love birds!" Someone shouts from behind us. We both turn around and see Aaron and Ericka holding hands, I smile at her. She looks so happy. She's wearing a cute gray knitted beanie and a red dress with white flats.
