It's Not All Roses

Chapter - 13

TYLER'S P.O.V

~CONTINUATION~

It was rounds and rounds of embarrassing stories till my idiotic friends finally decided to stop and play PS4 instead and I gladly agreed. Anything that doesn't make Ana think less of me or doesn't make me awkward around her is acceptable for the time being. While the boys were arguing about whether to play 'Mortal Combat' or 'FIFA', I was trying to sneak peeks of Ana and by the look on her face I don't know why but the thought of her feeling left out crossed my mind and by the time I was thinking about asking her to join us, Xander already called out to her, ''Hey, Ana do u play sports as nicely as you look at me?''

UGH, when will Xander quit?

''You are hilarious and certainly better company than Tyler. I think I'll play a few rounds. Are we gonna team up or -''

''Yep. You and Xander are teaming up. Since he sucks at the game and Jake and I can easily beat you guys.'' I finished her sentence for her as she was getting under my skin but seeing the way she frowned I think I may have pushed her buttons too, but then her frown turned into a smile as she raised her eyebrow giving me a challenging look, '' We are so beating you!'' and sits beside Xander. I felt extremely annoyed but then again, I brought this upon myself.

The game was finally over with both teams winning one round each and no one was up for a tie breaker. As the game finished Jake told Xander, ''It's getting late, let's leave these love birds alone now.''

''Sure bruh'' he says as they both head out and Ana and I walk them to the door and Xander plants a parting kiss on Ana's hand, '' See you soon, gorgeous.''

As soon as they left, Ana dumped a pile of work on me in the politest manner possible. Look how far we have come from dumping drinks although can't say I hate it any less. She asked me, ''Got some cleaning up to do, you want to help?" and obviously I obliged. We put our aprons on, did the dishes and the other chores and I take back everything I said about hating the fact that she keeps dumping stuff on me, sometimes drinks, sometimes chores. I mean if not for that drink how would I ever get the chance to show off my abs on our ''first'' meet. It totally did a number on her. It was so hard for her to show her hatred openly when she secretly loved to check me out. And the chance to work together showed me a vision of what our future may look like and I loved every second of it. I felt that I was compelled into building a future with some random rich bitch but my impression and thoughts changed in a way I never thought was possible.

Ana suddenly blurted out '' You know, maybe I don't hate your company as much as I said I did. ''

''Does it matter? Xander's company will anyways be better.'' I said with a sort of jealous and a smirky look hoping for reassurance.

''You didn't believe, that did you? If it's reassuring in the slightest way, I didn't mean it Tyler. You sure were an egoistic butthead at the beginning but you're changing and it's a good change. ''

Just got to hear something nice after all the taunts and mean nicknames from Anastasia Rosa De Luca.Simply made my day!

''I'm exhausted'', she yawned.

''I know, I can totally relate'' I said as I walked my final steps towards the bedroom and was about to throw myself on the bed-MY bed when I noticed there was only one bed in the room without the presence of a proper couch where I can lay my butt off or anything.

I could see how shocked Ana was by the look on her face as she walked into the room. Just when we were about to figure out a proper sleeping situation Ana's father called.
