Start over

Chapter 9

I woke up to hear the tv on. I walk into the hallway and hear SpongeBob on the tv. I walk into the living room and see Ryder sitting there watching SpongeBob with a cup of coffee. I giggle to myself and he notices me and slightly blushes and changes the channel really quick. "Good morning. There's some coffee in the kitchen for you" He says while not meeting my gaze. "Okay thank you." I say while heading to the kitchen but before I walk into the kitchen I say "I didn't take you as a SpongeBob fan" I say with amusement. His eyes go wide and he responds with "it was the only thing on tv" he says still not looking at me. I laugh to myself and walk into the kitchen and pour myself some coffee.

While I'm pouring myself some coffee someone comes up behind me a whispers "it's not really nice to tease your roommate is it,princess?" He asks. I turn around to face him with a smirk on my face. "Your right I won't do it again" I say with a smile. "Good" He says while walking away but before he leaves the kitchen I say "aye aye captain" after that he turns around shocked. I burst out laughing hold me stomach at his face. "Yeah yeah you're hilarious" he says while walking over to me and rolling his eyes. "I'm going out for the day. I won't be back until late so don't wait up Princess" he says while walking away. "Aye aye captain" I say. Come on that was the perfect opportunity to say it. He turns to me with an amused smirk and walks out the apartment.

It has been about 6 hours since Ryder left. Since then I have just been watching Netflix and relaxing. My phone starts ringing and lift it up to see it's Morgan. I answer and say "hey what's up?" "We are going to a party tomorrow night and you are coming" she says in a demanding tone. "No I'm not. You know I don't do parties. But I hope you guys have a fun time" I say hoping she'll get the message. "No you are going to come out with us and meet new people and have fun. No argument" she says "but I don't want to" I whine. I know I sound stupid but I've never had a good experience at a party. "I know the first party we took you to took a horrible turn and we are really sorry about that but you need to have some fun. We won't let anything happen to you I promise" she says trying to be as motivating as she can be. "Fine but you owe me ice cream" I say. "Yes we'll come help you get ready around 6 tomorrow" she says then hangs up before I can reply. I sigh. I really hope I don't regret my decision.

It's now currently 1 in the morning and I just woke up because I wanted some water. So I'm standing in the kitchen when I hear the door open. Fear takes over my body and I grab the first thing I can find. I walk to the door and then I see a shady figure in the hallway. "You should really leave I have a weapon" I say with fear. I look down and realize my "weapon" is a butter knife. Well quack. I hear someone chuckle and I tense up. "Princess what is this so called weapon you have?" I instantly know who it is. "I hate you" I say while walking back to the kitchen and he follows. "A butter knife? Really you were gonna hurt me with a butter knife?" He asks then he burst out laughing."shut up it was the first thing I could find and I thought you were a serial killer" I say while glaring at him. "A serial killer with a key?" He asks while holding up his key. I roll my eyes. "I thought you were asleep in your room. I didn't think it through" I say while looking at his face. That's when I realize he has a cut and a couple bruises on his face. He sees me looking at him and walks to the fridge and grabs a water. "What happened to your face?" I ask concerned. "Nothing I'm fine" he says with frustration laced in his voice. "Fine don't tell me but let me at least clean up your cut" I say while grabbing his hand and dragging him to the bathroom. He doesn't argue. "Sit" I say while pointing at the counter. He does as told while I get some alcohol to clean his cut and a band aid. I put some alcohol on a cotton ball and I walk to him and stand between his legs. I'm about to clean his cut when he grabs my arm and says "No" I look at him and respond with "it's gonna get infected if we don't" I say looking at him. Then he sighs and nods his head. I start cleaning his cut. He winces in pain and grabs my waist. I look at him " you okay?" I ask. He nods his head and I continue to clean his cut then I grab the band aid and put it on his cut. "All done. How do you feel?" I ask while still standing between his legs and his hands are still on my waist. He smiles and says "Thanks Princess". I realize then how close we are when his breath fans my face. I say "you're welcome. Now it's time we both get some rest." I say while I attempt to walk away but he keeps me still with his hands. "What?" I ask in a soft tone. "I really appreciate this princess" he says while smiling at me. He gets off the counter and hugs me. I'm a little shocked at first but hug back. "Now I'm serious go to bed" I say while smiling at him. We both go to our rooms and I lay down. I can't sleep though because a question keeps running through my mind. What just happened?
