The New Neighbor

Mackenzie

I wake up to a beeping noise. It's not my phone. Hardin stairs in his sleep and I shut his phone off. I see he has 10 new messages. I see the time and it's 6 am why the fuck is someone texting him a 6? I read there all from McKenzie. Who the fuck is Mackenzie? I know it's wrong but I open the texts.

M: Hey! How have you been I miss you x

M: Oh nice Scott you're going to ignore me?

M: Probably fucking some random girl

M: Is she at least cute?

M: Don't forget protection!

M: SCOTT!

M: Okay well i'm going to go please dont get someone pregnant

M: Love you

M: XX

What! Who is this girl? Is he cheating on me? I set his phone down and lay back in bed. I try not to think about what I just read. I lean over and see Hardin sound asleep. He has a small smile on his face, I wonder what he is thinking about. I can't help myself and I kiss him. His eyes flutter open and he pulls away.

"Good Morning Beautiful." He kisses me again

"Morning handsome also I'm sorry for waking you, you just had the cutest smile on your face" I giggle and he shakes his head.

"You don't have to be sorry what time is it?" He leans over and grabs his phone. SHIT!

"Tess?" He looks over to me.

"Hmm?" He smiles and I get even more scared "What?"

"Did you snoop threw my phone?" He doesn't sound mad.

"Y-Yes im sorry it kept going off i knew it was wrong but when i checked it was that girl and my curiosity got the best of me so I looked and i am ve-"

" Okay chill out i'm not mad i think its cute" I giggle and she looks terrified.

"I am sorry I shou-"

"Would you shut up come here" I open my arms and she straddles me. She lays her head on my chest and I feel her calm.

"Can I ask one thing though?"

"You don't have to ask"

"Who is she?"

"Nosey ah?" I giggle

"Shut up" I wack his arm and he asks hurt.

"She is one of my old hook ups but she stopped once she got married, She has two kids one named Felix and Nova. We decided to be friends because we were so close so she texts me from time to time" Tess is much calmer now.

"Okay can we call her later?" I want to know her maybe she has embarrassing stories of when Hardin was little.

"Yeah but she lives in England so it's already 11 pm there so maybe when it's 4 there?"

"Yeah! But what time is it here when it's 4 there?"

" 11 here i like that you're so clueless it's cute" She giggles and gets off me. I'm not tired anymore.

"Okay I am going to take a shower" I get up and grab my clothes and when I am about to leave to room I am pulled back.

"Can I come?"

"Hardin...."

"Saves water"

"Fine but NO funny business I mean it!"

"Yes ma'am"
