Truth or Dare

Chapter 11: Confused

(Leah)

I woke up and checked my phone. After I heard what Ethan said last night I texted Bailey right away,but she didn't respond. I knew she would probably be with Trevor so I just went to sleep after even though it was difficult to.

From Bailey:
Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! What?! When did he start liking you?! :o
To Bailey:
I have no idea but those were his exact words last night. I don't know what to say or how to talk to him.
From Bailey:
Well....are you interested in him?
To Bailey:
I don't know, just come over and we'll talk about this then.

I locked my phone and got out of bed. I went to the bathroom and brushed my teeth. I put my hair in a sloppy bun and went back to my room. I picked up my phone and checked the screen to see 4 iMessages. 1 from Bailey, 1 from Ricky, 1 from Hali, and 1 from the only person whom I feel awkward with right now, Ethan.
From Bailey:
Be over in 10, I'm bringing Trevor.

From Ricky:
We need to talk. Like now! I'll be there in 10.-.-

From Hali:
Bailey told me! OMG! I'm coming over!

From Ethan:
Can we hang out today?:)

Guess everyone's coming over now. As I was about to start getting ready the doorbell rang. I mentally groaned and threw my head back. I walked calmly down the stairs and open the door to see 7 smiling faces.

"I never said yes to any of this!!!" I groaned again but this time aloud and walked back in to my house leaving the door open for them to walk in.

I heard footsteps behind me so I figured now they've all walked in. I heard the door shut as I walked into the kitchen and got the Pop-Tarts out. I got out one packet and popped them in the toaster. I turned around to see the same smiling faces staring at me. I rolled my eyes and got out the milk with a glass cup. I poured some milk, put it away and hopped on the counter.

"Okay I know I shouldn't be saying this but damn Leah you look hot waking up." Tyler said looking me up and down with wide eyes. I glared at him while I saw Ethan's jaw hardened. He was still looking at me and I was looking at him but then after a couple seconds I felt everyone's eyes on us. After a couple more seconds he gave me a reassuring smile and the Pop-Tarts were out of the toaster.

"So why are you guys all here again? Because the only person I remember inviting was Bailey." I gave them all a stare as they either looked down awkwardly or rubbed the back of their necks as Bailey stood their smiling proudly.

"Yeah you guys! Pssh! You're never suppose to come over uninvited!" Bailey said as she looked embarrassed because she's done it multiple times before.

"Ugh!" I grabbed my Pop-Tarts and milk and headed upstairs to my room. A lot happened last night that I couldn't handle everything that happened last night. It was all too soon and too much. Once I got in my room I set my food and drink down and walked over to the door and locked it. I just wanted to be alone.

I heard steps, a lot of them. Then I kept hearing whispering outside my door. I was frustrated and rolled my eyes knowing they couldn't see me. "I can hear you!" As soon as I said that everything was quiet. I knew that if I could hear anything I would just get even more annoyed. I plugged my earphones in and listened to one of my favorite songs, 'Scream' by Usher.

I ate my Pop-Tarts and drank my milk while listening to music. I read a chapter or two of a book that was on my shelf when I realized they hadn't bothered me. I shrugged thinking they went home, so I cuddle my pillow and put the blanket over me and let the darkness take over my body.
