Get To Know You

GTKY Chapter 5

Chapter status: EDITED.

Laine's POV

I drove back home. Ugh. My mom would kill me for using the car without permission. The nerve of that Dana! And Will was there too! Ugh, I am so embarrassing.

And I still can't forget the scenario last night.

*FLASHBACK*

"Do you wanna come in? My parents aren't here anyway and it's Friday. You can text the others if they wanna come over. I kind of miss hanging out with you guys since..."

"I'm sorry." He said.

"It's okay. Go text the guys. I'll tell Cassidy."

We entered the house. "You can sit on the couch," I told him.

He sat on the couch and I sat beside him, about 1 foot away. I turned on the TV and flipped through some random channels.

Suddenly Will spoke, "The guys said that they have their own businesses to do," he said while chuckling and shaking his head lightly. I checked my phone only to see a text from Cassidy.

From: Cass
Sorry, girl. Cole came over and offered a walk. Next time. :)

I sighed and shifted my gaze at Will. "Cass can't make it. I guess it's me and you tonight. Unless... You'll go home now."

"No no no no! I'm totally fine hanging with you tonight. And I... Actually wanna talk to you about something." He met my eyes. "W-What?"

"I always end up embarrassing myself in front of you. I even... Spit apple juice at you." I chuckled at that thought, "Hey don't laugh at me! You don't know how awkward this is!"

I laughed at him, "Oh come on. No need to be embarrassed. It's not like I can't wash the juice away."

He just smiled at me and muttered a silent "Thanks."

We decided to watch Coming Soon, a Thai horror movie. Before starting the movie, I went upstairs to get a blanket and two pillows, since I know that we both hate scary movies with a passion.

(AN: Read the next part to know more about Coming Soon.)

Will turned off the lights, for better viewing, according to him.

We kept on screaming and closing our eyes for like, every 10 minutes, since we do not want to be Shomba's next targets.

When the movie was done, I found myself extremely close to Will, and that I was holding on his shirt so bad. My knees were against my chest since I was afraid that someone would grab my feet from below the couch.

"That... Was..." I looked at Will, "WHAT THE HELL!" He grabbed the whole blanket away from me and covered his whole body with it. He copied my position, his knees next to his chest.

I turned my gaze back to the TV. "OH MY!" Why is Shomba's face still projected on the screen?! I closed my eyes tightly and got a tight grip on the blanket. The pillows were on the floor near the TV since Will threw it earlier after a scary scene.

"TURN IT OFF, TURN IT OFF!" Will shouted. I ran to the switch and turned the lights on. God, we are so panicking. Will ran to the outlet and unplugged the TV and the DVD. Gosh, good thing no one else is in the house.

I looked at Will as he looked at me. We were both panting like hell. We sat on the couch at the same time trying to catch our breaths and trying to get the panic out of ourselves. Gosh, I think I just embarrassed myself. I just like him so bad.
