"Okay, this has dragged out for too long!" I slammed my fist into my palm as I defended my point. Logan and Ayo have been acting weird and distant with each other and it is affecting me as their teammate and Logan's girlfriend. Logan's been seriously distant with me and even the rest of the clique. It's as though he is hiding a secret and Ayo knows about it.
It is currently lunch time and neither of them has come to the table the clique normally sits at. A smile graced my lips when I saw Logan walking towards us and I waved to flag him down. His lips quirked up in a gentle smile, highlighting his handsome features, and he walked steadily to our table.
The smile on his face suddenly broke which caused me to frown and turn around to see the reason for his sudden change in emotion. There Ayo stood with a tray in hand, mirroring Logan's unhappy expression. Ayo's face turned blank and emotionless before turning around to leave while Logan's eyes showed how much the action had hurt him. His hurt was soon covered up by a blank expression and he also turned around and left. So much for wanting to eat lunch with my boyfriend.
I was about to follow Logan when Sharon dragged me back. "Sit, Shelia." She said. "We have to plan how to get them back together. Something obviously happened between the two of them."
I sat down reluctantly and we all started throwing ideas of how we could bring the two together to talk things out. Ultimately, we went with Bryan's ridiculous seven minutes in heaven idea. The real problem was how we would get them to even look at each other talk less of even staying in the same room. We eventually went with an early morning plan (which didn't impress Sharon one bit) because Ayo was an early bird. My job was to wake up early to drag Logan with me to school.
Trust me, waking up early is not easy but I had to do it for the sake of my relationship with Logan and Ayo. Walking to Logan's house was an exercise and after literally dragging Sharon out of our street, we finally got to his house.
"So this is Logan's apartment." She observed between yawns and lazily knocked the door. It surprised me when an immediate 'who is it?' echoed through the house. "Does your boyfriend sleep at all, I mean how could he -yawn- sound so active in the morning?!" Sharon asked incredulously to which I shrugged indifferently.
I know Logan is a light sleeper so him being awake at this time of the day doesn't surprise me. The door opened to reveal Logan in...God help me...boxers and...no shirt. I think I'm drooling.
'He is slim but muscular, just look at that six pack, his v-line, that toned chest...my God our boyfriend is hot!'
I agreed with my inner Shelia for once and didn't argue. This guy is directly from God's cookie jar and I love eye candy.
"My eyes! Logan, you sleep like this?!" Stella screamed as she shielded her eyes while Logan just stared at us both as if we grew horns each.
'Why is his left eye closed?'
I observed that his eye was closed but before I could dwell on it, I observed another thing on his body; scars and lots of them too. I couldn't make them out well in the dim light but I could see they that were so many. Logan is very gentle and careful so he couldn't have hurt himself. Did he get into an accident before moving here?! What happened?!
