Second Chance With You

Chapter 21

*Picture is Chase♡*
(Chase P.O.V)

I was standing in the kitchen at Christian's making the time pass before I went back to him. He had already started yelling for the pop corn. God he was so impatient.

I just wasn't really in the mood for company anymore and I just honestly wanted to go home. My head was hurting and I just wanted to lay in my own bed and be alone. I grabbed the bowl of popcorn and walked back into the living room. I plopped down on the sofa and handed him the popcorn bowl and waited for him to play the movie. I focused my attention on the screen and pretended to watch the movie.

My mind just wasn't into the movie and it was really one of my favorites. My mind was focused on what happened yesterday and it was driving me insane. How could they do that me? Their own flesh and blood? I just don't understand. I don't understand people.

"She is so noisy! If I was the man I would leave her ass behind." Christian suddenly says next to me.

"Oh come on Christian. No you wouldn't." I say and laugh a little.

He glares up at me and leans to sit on his knees.

"I would at least super glue her lips together. Who is that loud with psychos around? I mean really so obnoxious." He says.

"She's scared Christian! I'm sure you wouldn't be a church mouse in that situation either." I say. I was smirking a little and trying to hold in my laugher. Just picturing Christian in that situation was kind of amusing because he would most likely be a complete smart ass to them. But in reality who could kill someone as cute as him anyways?

"No but I wouldn't be screaming and breathing hard like I was in the throws of passion either!" he says and I loose it. I began laughing so hard I had to clench my stomach. This felt great. To be able to laugh for real and not fake it. To not have to give a fake smile to anyone who talks to me; even Christian, and yet it was Christian who made me laugh and smile. Christian was like my happiness now.

"Shut up!" I hear him say and he pushed me off the couch.

I looked up and saw him laughing on his back and it made me laugh as well. I leaned up and grabbed him and pulled him to the ground with me. I jumped on top of him and began to tickle him like crazy. He began laughing and squirming underneath me and it made me laugh and feel care free like a child.

"Stop Chase!" he says and I decide to take pity on him. He pushes me to the side and sits on my stomach. My heart stutters a little bit and I begin to feel the familiar butterflies forming in my stomach. I want to grab his waist. I want to touch him and pull him down to me and kiss him. To steal his breathe away until he can barely remember his own name.

My heart began to beat harder and faster in my chest and a sensation began to form and it was making me nervous. What if he felt it?

"I haven't had a workout like that in forever." I hear him say and he laughs a little.

I just stare up at him. He was staring down at me laughing a little as well. I wanted to reach up and grab his neck and bring him down to me. He looked down and his cheeks flushed a little brighter.

"Oh. Um I'm sorry." he says and gets off of me. He leans againist the couch. I lean up and sit next to him as well both of our cheeks brighter than the others. We didn't speak the rest of the movie both quiet in our own thoughts.

What if he had felt it? He would have probably made me leave and he would never had spoken to me again. I would have lost my family and Christian. I would be alone. Sure I had my job and employees but that wasn't the same.
