Who We Aren't {Bullied By Team Crafted} (Book 2)

Chopla 9: Candles

Daniella's POV

I groaned and fell back onto the couch, or maybe it was the love seat? I don't really know..

I heard a knock on the door, I turned to see someone with a dim light was at the door. I didn't move, the door was unlocked but with that much light they wouldn't get far.

"Dani! Lilah!" I heard a voice all too familiar to me, known as the other half of Mitella.

"Doors open" I said. Jerome and Mitch stepped through the door a second later.

The little bit of light showing me that Mitch was holding his phone and Jerome standing slightly behind him. I smiled, "what are you two doing?" I asked laughing lightly.

"What I can't check on my girlfriend when the power goes out?" Mitch asked. I smiled.

"Wheres Lilah?" Jerome asked, I couldn't really see him, since Mitch's phone was still on him.

"She went to go find candles" I said, he nodded, his footsteps echoing away. I smiled and sat back down, "why is your phone brightness down?" I asked questioningly.

"Well my phone is on like two percent" he said as the light flickered off, "and now it's dead" he sighed.

I heard his phone drop onto the floor, "did you just.."

"I thought there was a table there!" He exclaimed.

I laughed and got up, "Ima go into the kitchen and grab some bread" I said.

"I'm going to find candles" he said before his footsteps echoed away. I walked my way into the kitchen, only tripping like five times.

I opened a cabinet before I felt two arms wrap around my waist. I smiled and shut the cabinet closed again.

Why was Mitch in the kitchen if he was looking for Candles?

Mitch turned me around and pressed his lips to mine for one moment before pulling away again. "Mitch" I laughed lightly.

"Yeah!" A voice called from else where in the house, Mitch. I looked straight forward at the person who I had kissed.

"Lilah" the person said quietly, I froze.

"Jerome..." I trailed off, "I'm not Lilah" I felt my eyes become clouded with the guilt that I had just accidentally cheated on Mitch with his best friend, and kissed my sisters boyfriend.

"Oh my god Dani" he said stepping away, "I thought you were Lilah!"

"Why are you looking for candles in the kitchen!?" I exclaimed.

"Dani! Are you okay!?" Lilah called from the back rooms. I didn't answer.

"I wasn't looking for candles I was looking for Lilah!" He explained back, I sighed as I felt a tear run down my cheek. I am terrible...

"Jerome, you just... we just..-"

"It's not that big of a deal.." he said quietly.

"Not that big of a deal my ass!" I screamed.

"What happened?"
