A Time To Remember

Chapter 9

OLIVIA'S POV

"I'm making some pancakes for myself. Who doesn't want any?" I ask everyone once we enter the house.

I receive a bunch of I's and ME's before they realise that I tricked them and shove me in the kitchen to start cooking. Nice friends I've got there, eh?

Don't forget to note the sarcasm.

Everyone pulled out the chairs and sat on the kitchen island talking amongst themselves and I get to work, my job was to feed four hungry elephants and one human. You probably guessed it already, the one human I referred to is obviously me, I ain't calling myself an elephant. Speaking of elephants, where are Ella and Gracie?

"Hey guys, has anyone seen Ella and Gracie? Are they still sleeping?" I ask them, they all stop talking and look at me but no one answers me.

"Uh guys, just so you know, I can't read minds. So I need you to speak up" I say getting annoyed with them continuously staring at me.

"Look behind you" Noah tells me, his eyes were as wide as saucers.

Is this some kind of a horror movie to you? You know, when someone tells you to look behind you and boom a ghost is standing there holding a knife or something. This felt like the exact same just this time it wasn't a ghost, but there was something even more scarier than that. I'll explain it in three words.

Ella and Gracie

Or should I say angry Ella and Gracie? But then it would make it four words

Oh God please not this again! I don't feel like being chased one more time today.

"Hey, why don't y'all sit down and relax and I'll make some very delicious pancakes for y'all" I give them a nervous smile, my voice coming out higher than normal.

My eyes slowly open, adjusting to the brightness of the room but I instantly shut them again and sigh.

"This is becoming a daily occurrence, why are y'all always surrounded around me whenever I wake up. It's really creepy!" I crack open one eye and look at everyone surrounding my bed.

"We were bored" Ace shrugs as if it was the most normal thing to do when you're bored.

"So you guys decide to stare at me instead?" I look at them in disbelief

"There was nothing better to do, you can't really blame us" he replies, everyone was still staring at me, it was getting really uncomfortable.

"I'm going back to sleep, creeps" I tell them and pull the comfy blanket above my head and close my eyes ready to go back to sleep.

My legs were suddenly pulled and in a matter of second I was on the floor on my ass, and now it fucking hurts!

"Wakey wakey, Panda" Ace stood there smiling innocently as if he didn't just hurt my ass and called me a panda.

"Get in loser, we're going shopping" Noah grins and starts driving in a Barbie toy car, where'd he find that?

"Did you just quote 'Mean Girls' and is that a toy car, that too Barbie?" I blink once, twice, thrice and double over laughing.

"Ya and ya" he answers my question and leave the room to drive his toy car.

"Hey! Don't laugh at my car, I used to drive it when I was small" Sophie huffs

I put my hands up in surrender not being in the mood for an argument match with her.

"You're still small" Ace teases her knowing she hates it when someone comments on her height and it was definitely working seeing as her face was red with anger.

"You jackass come here I'll show you how short I am" Sophie yells and chases after Ace and they both run out of the room.

"Ace is being chased for the third time today, that guy keeps getting in trouble every time" Liam shakes his head slowly while chuckling.

"I'm pretty sure his middle name is 'trouble'." Gracie laughs

"When, why and by whom was he chased the second time?" I ask excitedly

"When you were sleeping Gracie wanted to apply nail-paint so she showed four shades of red asked everyone their thoughts on it. Ace said they were literally all the same colour and it was stupid to even ask that question because once you apply it, all shades of red were going to look the same. Gracie got mad because of what he said and even he refused to back down so our short tempered Gracie here, ran after him to punch him" Ella finally breathes after saying so much in breath and then starts laughing along with Liam and me.

"Seems like everyone besides Ella has gotten a nice workout done today, either by chasing someone or by being chased by someone" I laugh.

"Well, I don't like working out anyway" Ella points out

"I'm not short tempered, ok. He called Red Wine, Burgundy, cranberry and Claret all the same, for crying out loud! How could you not want to punch him?" Gracie looks at Ella and me expectantly, hoping we understood and we both nod even though we didn't. For me all reds were reds, I don't discriminate.

"Don't worry babe, we understand your pain." Liam gives her a side hug

"Thank you" she replies leaning into him.

Wait, what is happening? She didn't even push him away like she does every time? What the fuck is she not telling us?

Ella and I look at each other shocked, she looked as clueless as I was. I make a mental note to ask her later about it.

"I guess we should go check what the others are up to" I clear my throat and the two love birds jump apart in surprise, they most probably forgot we were still here.

"Where's Noah?" I ask Ace, taking a seat beside him on the couch in the Livingroom.

"He took the toy car outside for a ride, saying he was going to go get food for us all" Ace chuckles and I look at him with awe, why does he have to be so handsome, cute and a player?

"Aww, how cute" I reply with a smile

"He gets called cute but not me?" he adorably pouts

"I thought you said don't like being called cute" I chuckle at his adorableness.

"Oh ya! Totally forgot about that, on a second thought, please don't call me cute" he says sheepishly.
