The Not-So-Bad Boy Next Door

Chapter 8

"Wow Trev you look like a ray of sunshine." I laugh while he walked in the door, while his bedhead and his pj's. He sends me a glare before coming in. I slam the door shut, much to irritate him. He groans, "Why Claire, whhhhy?" I laugh, "You're such a cry baby. Now what do you want? Why are you here?" He puts on the most fake smile I have ever seen, "Oh I can't just show up, with a bed head and pj's, just to say high to you, love?"

"No you can't. It's really out of character, besides the fact that you don't randomly show up. That would be Aiden, Spencer, or Ella and Noah. You normally call or text first. So what's up? Break up? Having a bad day? Met the prettiest girl yet she rejected you? Or just having a really good day and then your parents kicked you out in you pj's?"

"Love, you do realize it's December 23rd right?" I nod and he gestures with his hands, "So that means that it's almost December 25th." I psychically pace palm myself, "No shit, Sherlock! I could of told you that. Will you just stop beating around the bush? Why are you here two days before Christmas?"

"Because I-I... I need help getting a gift for my mom and I have no clue what to get her. She gets back from her trip today and I haven't got her a gift yet. I. NEED. HELP." I grab out the orange juice from in my fridge and pour two cups, "Okay, wait, so why exactly did you come here at 7:30 in the morning in your pj's with your hair not brushed. I would have thought you would of been one to at least attempt to brush your hair."

"Well I need it get it now. I told her I already bought her present a week ago and if she finds out I'm dead. Please help me!" He pleads, grabbing onto my shoulders, "Please?"

"I'll help you but you should probably fix your hair and get out of your pj's." He turns to walk away, "Trev, what does your mom like, so we know what kind of present we're looking for."

"Umm... well she likes jewelry but she also likes things from the heart and she's kinda girly so I came to you. Do you have anything I could wear? I think my mom already got home." I look towards him in his pj's, "Why you don't want to go to the stores looking like that?" I stifle a laugh.

He sends me a death glare, "Trev I was kidding. I don't think I have anything that you could wear unless... you wanted to look like a girl." His eyes go wide, "No!" "Well then I guess we'll have to go ask Aiden to borrow some clothes because I don't think any of you left enough clothes to make an outfit."

"So why do you need to borrow my clothes?" This is the third time that Aiden's asked us why we needed to borrow some of his clothes. "Oh my fucking gosh, will you just give him the fricken shirt and shorts?" He hands them over and then plants himself on the couch. Trevor leaves the room to go change. I start thinking about things that his mom might like, but my thoughts are interrupted by Aiden's voice, "So where are we going to go shopping at?"

I blink my eyes a few times, "What do you mean, we? There is no we. We are not going to go shopping for presents. I'm going to go shopping with Trevor for presents not, we." He pulls his feet up and places them on the coffee table. "Fine where are you going, that I will go to, too?" I roll my eyes, oh boy, this is gonna be a very very long day.

We just got out of the last store of the day and Trevor and Aiden ended up buying presents for relatives and friends. Trevor bought his mom a stunning necklace and Aiden bought some things for Madison and his mom and a couple of other people.

I already had already had all of my presents bought by a couple of weeks ago. I got Noah a jacket that's strings were actually ear buds. I got Ella a bracelet and got Emmett a sweatshirt that said I love football. I got Spencer the call of duty day zero limited edition for his XBOX 360. He's been saying he wanted it for a few months now. I got Trevor a lifeproof case because he's gone through like 5 phones in the past 3 years, from dropping it in the toilet and dropping it and then running it over with his car. As for Aiden, I haven't finished his gift yet but I'm almost done.

"Hey you guys wanna grab something to eat?" Trevor points to the Wendy's. Aiden and I shrug and we start walking towards Wendy's. We're a few shops away from where Wendy's is and something catches my eye. I turn and see the prettiest bracelet, I have ever seen, in the window display. It had an infinity sign and right in the middle there was a small little diamond. Even though it was simple, it was still so beautiful at the same time. It was elegant but casual. I really want it but it was way out of my price limit.

"Claire, food?" I turn and look at Aiden and Trevor standing there. I blush, I can't believe I made them wait on me, "Yeah, sorry, I just got a little distracted. Lets go!"
