My Little Fighter

Chapter 12

                         Amelia

As I was entering they key into the rusty lock, I was ready for the storm that was going to jump on me, this said storm is also know as Hannah Banana.

I could hear her running towards the door and tapping her foot on the creaking wooden floor from impatience. She was going to attack me as soon as I step in.

And yes, that's exactly what happened.

"Oh my god oh my god, okay, don't freak out, deep breath, calm down."

She was litteraly talking to herself and jumping everywhere like a crazy woman while I was staring at her, shocked by her reaction.

I mean sure, I knew that she was going to be excited and nosy about the date but this was over the top. It's not like I never go out to socialize and talk to people. Right?

"What's up Hannah." I asked with a small smile trying to hold my laugh.

"Okay, okay. Before you ask, Luke is already fed, bathed and asleep. Now, room, I want to know EVERYTHING."

"There's nothing to talk about. We watched a movie, spent some time in a park and talked. I had a great time  and it was really fun."

"But did you-"

"No, we didn't kiss."

"Aww Amy, when are you going to have your first kiss? You're eighteen years old for god's sake."

"When the time and person is right, it will happen. In the meantime, my mouth is very happy unkissed, thank you. Oh and also, Jacewaslikeeverywherewewentbuthekindasavedmynighttooandheisntsobadactually."

She blinked.

I blinked.

She blinked again.

"Do I look like I can slow down time to understand what you just said?" She deadpanned at me.

"I said, Jace was like everywhere we went to tonight, almost as if he was following me which was really weird, but he also kinda saved my night too and I then found out he isn't so bad."

"Wait what? I'm confused. Mind explaining?"

The lost look on her face said it all and so I told her everything that happened with every details to help her understand more.

"So if I understood correctly, Jace, the big bad Jace Falls, did this? Oh this is too precious. The boy is practically in love." She was hysterically laughing by now after she heard what happened.

"Are you crazy? What do you mean by love? The guy hates me, this is probably all part of a plan to either kill me or take his revenge on me after I slapped him."

Hannah was nuts if she really thought that this boy would take any interest in me.

"Okay, the Jace part was funny, but what about what happened with Josh huh ?" Hannah asked while wiggling her eyebrows.

"How could you have possibly already forgot? I just told you everything like two minutes ago !" I knew she had a short memory but this was above the limits.

"Oh right. Sorry about that, but in my defense, even if this Josh guy seems really sweet, I actually ship you with Jace more now."

I was ready to hit Hannah for what she said but decided against it as I was starting to get very sleepy. This week has been very tiring and I think I can even hear my bed calling my name.

Good thing tomorrow was Sunday, I had the whole day to spend it with Luke.

Sunday has always been family day and ever since the thing, it has been just my little brother and I basically binge watching shows and chilling on the couch. It was honestly my favorite day of the week.

No fighting, no worries, no problems, but every good thing has an end and sadly, this feeling is just temporary.

After a few minutes, my mind drifted to Josh.

He's a very sweet and genuine guy, kinda cute too, and maybe he could be something more in the future.

Even if I don't feel the "sparks" you're supposed to feel when you're with that special someone, it'll eventually come right ?

I mean, at least I think this is how it works.

But he isn't Jace.

Ughhh... why do I have to keep  thinking about this guy, it's so frustrating.

Even tho I saw him from a different angle when he kinda saved my ass tonight, he still is Jace and I should keep my distance from this guy. He smells like bad news.

And that's how sleep took over me, with this boy's image in my head.

"Wakey wakey Ames, I want my fruit loops."

Again, I felt a heavy weight sitting right on my stomach. Luke just won't understand that he isn't a feather anymore.

"You can get them yourself buddy, you're ten years old." I said with a sleepy voice while trying to hide under the covers.

As much as I love Luke, I can't function well early in the morning.

"But they're not the same if you don't prepare them!" He whined trying to snatch the covers off, but falling nonetheless.

"Lukey, they're cereals. All you have to do is pour them in a bowl then add the milk in that order. There literally is nothing else to do, who does it won't affect the way it tastes."

I tried reasoning with him but it's obviously not working as he kept on insisting again and again.

This is a lost case. He knows very well that at the end, I can't say no to him. He has me wrapped around his finger no matter the time of the day or the situation, and I'm fine with it.

He is all I have left after all.

And the fruit loops he got.

Hey guys ! I will try posting more each week since my exams are done. Don't forget to vote and comment.
