The Way He Saw Things | Lil Peep

Chapter 4 - Chocolate Chip Pancakes

The next morning I get out of bed excited to see Peep. Now that I had met him I promised myself I was gonna get closer with him. I go down the stairs humming 'shiver'. Cold Hart and his fiance Jamie were already awake. I knew they were both sober last night because she was nine months pregnant. Jamie hugged me goodmorning as her and Cold Hart sat down at the island counter.

"You making breakfast?" Cold Hart asks. I nod as I look around the kitchen.

"Chocolate chip pancakes?" I ask. Jamie makes an excited noise into her tea and I giggle. She had become a good friend of mine. As I was getting out the ingredients there was a sound like stampeding upstairs. We cast worried looks at each other. "The fuck?" I whisper to myself. Cold Hart laughs.

"They're waking everyone up." He says, getting up and looking up the stairs. As he did this Tracy shot out of the stairway, running as fast as he could. A moment after him came Wicca, Horse Head, and a whole group of half-drunk, sleepy men, but no Peep. The boys quickly gave up on chasing Tracy and flooded the kitchen.

"Are you making chocolate chip pancakes?" Asks Wicca, out of breath.

"Yes I am, where's Aubrey?" I question after his girlfriend. His face gets all sad.

"She's visiting family, I won't see her for like, a whole week." I make a sad face before questioning after Yung Goth and Peep. Tracy giggles.

"Well if I didn't see Peep go in his room with a girl last night, I'd think they were together. Goth is just slow getting up, and like I said, Peep got a girl last night." My heart drops, but who was I to be upset? "Actually speaking of, somebodies gotta go get that girl before Gus wakes up. He won't be happy when he learns he got fucked up last night."

"Nose goes" Says Horse Head. Of course I, in my state of shock, didn't put my finger on my nose. This throws Wicca and Tracy into a fit of laughter. I have to go get the girl who slept with the guy I have a massive crush on out of bed, so fun.

"Wait till I finish the pancakes, then I can bring him breakfast." They agree and I quickly finish a batch of pancakes.

I stack a few on a plate and head upstairs. As I'm going up the stairs I pass Goth, his glasses are crooked and he looks hungover as fuck.

"Go get you some water and pancakes bud." I say, patting him on his back. He grunts and waves a hand in my direction. When I reach Peep's bedroom I take a deep breath and open the door. There are two naked bodies in the bed, both mostly covered in blankets and fast asleep. I set the pancakes on the bedside table and walk over to the girls side of the bed.

"Hey, honey, you gotta get out of bed." I say, she murmurs and her eyes flutter open. I can tell she's still drunk, so I get her to sit up before helping her put her clothes on. I call her an Uber before sending her down the stairs to get some pancakes.

I slowly creep over to Peeps side of the bed. Tapping his back I prepare for him to be angry. He slowly turns over, rubbing his eyes and yawning. Thankfully still covered by the blankets, or I would've had no choice but to act up. His eyes open tiredly but widen when they reach my face.

   
"Hey ma." He mumbles, his voice incredibly hot. He wraps his arms around me and tries to pull me in the bed.

"Peep you're drunk and naked." I laugh, unwrapping his hands from my waist. He giggles and gives me puppy dog eyes.

"Pleeease." He smiles, grabbing for my hand.

"No Gus, I'm not gonna get in bed with you." I say, pulling my hand back. This makes both of us giggle. He shakes his head.

"Just to cuddle, pleeasssee." He begs. As much as I want to, I don't want to seem so easy.

"I'm gonna go downstairs for a little bit, when I come back I expect for you to be semi dressed and for these pancakes to be eaten. If you've done that, I'll cuddle with you, yeah?" I make a deal. He nods and smiles. I wave as I leave the room and let out a goofy smile as soon as I closed the door. I hear a chuckle and I see Goth at the top of the stairs with a plate full of pancakes.

"He's addicting huh?" He asks, once again reminding me of their past. I nod and start to apologize, not knowing if they still have a thing.

"You're fine, we aren't together." He smiles and disappears into his room.
