I fell in love with a jock

chapter 10

For study period me and Andrew drove to my house to rest for bit but I decided to stay home and not go back to school, my parents weren't home so they wouldn't notice. Andrew went back to school and I spent a majority of my day alone (aside from Oreo). I watching a few episodes of Family Guy to try and just laugh at something but the episodes were a stupid kind of funny, which wasn't as humorous to me.

At 2 I decided I was bored and extremely lonely so I texted Andrew to let him know I was going over to his house. School let out at 2:30 so I would get there around the same time he did.

Andrew had beaten me to his house so I go up to the front door and ring the doorbell. "Why do you bother ringing to doorbell? You know where the spare key is." Andrew informs me as he lets me in.

"It would be rude just to barge in and you need the exercise. You're always sitting at your desk."

"Haha whatever." He doesn't wait for me to follow him as he starts going upstairs to his room.

He does straight to his desk and saves whatever he was working on while I go and sit on his bed and look around his room. Is hasn't changed much in the few weeks that I haven't been here. His games are still stacked against his TV, and his desk is littered with papers way past due.

When we were younger he had a smaller bed, and his room was green. Now his bed is a queen size and his room is painted black. He has paintings and projects we did together in his closet, and on his desk is a picture of me and him.

It was on my 10th birthday and he was the only boy I had invited. In the picture we're both covered in paint, smiling, and in a big bear hug. I smile at the distant memory.

"You okay?" Andrew asks and sits down on the bed next to me.

"I'm still thinking about what happened today. I didn't expect confrontation. I though he would just pretend he didn't know anything." I cross my legs on the bed and Andrew puts his hand on my head and makes me lay on his shoulder.

"I'm surprised he followed us out to the parking lot." He pulls me close to him, and I let him embrace me. He rubs my arm, trying to be sympathetic but fails and stops rubbing my arm.

"I don't want to talk about it anymore." I tell him. Generally not interested in the topic and wanted to quickly change the subject.

"Yeah, okay." He nods, understanding.

"Hey tonight is Abby's first dance show and I told Christina I would go." I Check my phone for the time.

"Okay, do you want me to take you?" He asks and looks down at me in his arms.

"No, Christina told me she would take me." I knew Andrew wouldn't want to go and he would hate it.

"What do you want to do until then?"

"I just want to sleep,eat, and watch some movies with you all day." I tell him and lay down on his bed.

"You want to nap first?" He asks

I nod my head and close my eyes. I feel Andrew get a blanket for me and covers my body.

"I'll be on the floor." He grabs a pillow from his bed and an extra blanket and makes a makeshift bed for himself on the floor.

When we wake up from our nap Andrew ordered us some pizza and I picked out a movie from his huge collection that he has in his family room.

"Want to watch a horror movie?" Andrew walks in on me looking at his movie collection.

"Yeah, that sounds good."  I go to the top shelf where Andrew keeps his horror movie and look to see what he has.

"Here I'll get some." I was struggling to get to the top shelf so Andrew just effortlessly reached up and grabbed a couple of his movies.

We walked over to the couch and looked at the few he brought down. "So which one do you want to watch?" He asks.

I look at the five movies in his hands and chose one that we've both seen together already. "The conjuring?" I suggest.

He nods his head and goes up to put the DVD  in. He grabs a blanket and puts it over us. I lean my back Against Andrew and put my legs out in front me of me.

while were watching the movie My mind wanders else where, and I don't pay attention that much to it. Andrews head moves a little so I look up to see him looking down at me with a smile.

"What?" I ask and lightly laugh.

"Nothing, Just missed having Emily and Andrew time." He smiles bigger, showing me his white straight teeth.

*****

We watch the movie and eat the pizza on the couch together. We flinch at the scary parts, and gasp and the jump scares.

When we finish the movie it's 6 already, so I ask Andrew to drive me home so I can start getting ready and wait for Christina to pick me up.

In the car it's quiet, but I don't mind. We have the radio on to a popular station and I look over to Andrew and see him singing along to the songs there playing.

When we get home my parents weren't home, so I invited Andrew in to stay longer with me. I make him stay downstairs while I go and quickly change.

I put on darker jeans and a dress up shirt with a black coat over it. I let me hair down and iron it quickly.

I hop down the stairs and see Andrew playing around with Oreo on the floor.

"He really missed you." I say when I walk into the living room.

"I know, I need to come over more often." He smiles and scratches Oreo behind his ears. "You look good." He tells me and stands up.

"Thanks." I walk over to a mirror wall we have installed and put on some masscara. Andrew walks up behind me and just leans against the wall. When he thinks I'm not looking, I see him snap a picture of me. I look at him and flick him off, which only makes him laugh as he take another photo.

The doorbell rings and I know its Christina coming for me. "Can you open the door please?" I look at Andrew in the mirror and he puts his phone away and makes his way to the front door.

I finish putting my mascara on and Andrew goes to open the door.
