Rebekah's POV:
After lunch, Rafael and John left but John asked us if we wanted to join him and some of his friends for pub tonight and we readily agreed as we had nothing planned any ways.
I helped grandma with the dishes while Rex applied for some jobs in Seattle.He told me how he needed to work as he wished to settle off campus and needed a car of his own to travel to school. He was clearly surprised when I told him that I worked at Hailee's for night shift sometimes and he seemed a bit uncomfortable at the idea of me being a bartender to drunk boys who want nothing else than to sleep with anyone they get.
He precisely quoted, "How obnoxious this sounds! I mean why a bartender? I know I am noone to say this but it's just stupid to me." I smiled nervously at his words and said how I needed that job desperately because the pay was good and I no longer wanted my grandma to work her ass off for me.
We spent the afternoon playing FIFA. No matter how terrible of a player I am, Rex was adamant on teaching me to score well and I am proud to say that after a few attempts I think I did good.
It was around 4:00 when both of us were extremely hungry. We decided to watch a movie and so I told him that I will make some popcorn and get some hot cheetos along.
He just smiled at me with his puppy eyes holding my hand not letting me go. "What?", I said blushing.
"Don't go", he said while he pulled me closer to him. At this his phone rang and he left my hand to get it from the table.
I laughed victoriously and got up from my seat. He looked at me with a defeated look and went towards the window to attend the call.
I took this as a sign to work on the popcorn and made my way towards the kitchen.
It was April's call. I felt selfish to not call her yesterday clearly ignoring the fact that she might be worried regarding the content of our last talk.
I thought for a good reason so that she feels less hurt before answering the call.
April : Hey dumbo. Where have you been? I left you so many voicemails which you have been completely ignoring not feeling the slightest of need to fill me up with the details.
I laughed at how impatient she was and finally answered.
Me : Heya hothead. Take a deep breath before you literally choke on your own words.
I could literally feel that she was smiling at my words but straightened her tone before replying.
April : Get to the point Rex. Do you have any idea regarding how worried I was. If you wouldn't have answered this call I was literally planning to take the next flight to London.
I felt a pang of guilt in my heart. I sighed before answering.
Me : Hey I am sorry okay? It's just that I got a bit busy after we sorted things between us. I just forgot to fill you up between all that drama and then the London tour I was occupied with.
I heard her squealing on the other side before she excitedly asked me.
April : So how was London Rex? I can't believe you saw the city that I have been wanting to since such a long time. And I am so happy that finally Rebekah and you are together. Can't wait to see you'll at campus. When are you returning by the way?
Me : Uhmm... I haven't really talked to her about this. But I know I will have to since I can't miss school anymore. If we can arrange tickets for tomorrow then maybe we'll be in Seattle soon.
