18: ONCE UPON AN US

Chapter 2

Batrisha

The next day, Trevor and I decide to watch movie at my place since we have nothing else to do.

"Hahahaha are you serious? Kendall did that?" I busting laughed as I hit Trevor beside me at the couch.

"Yes! She literally farted infront of me!" Trevor claimed.

"Wait here. I need to change. Can you search a movie please?" I asked him as he nod before I ran to my room.

"Batrisha! There's someone at the door!" Trevor shouted.

"Can you open it and see who it is?" I shouted back.

When I put on my grey sweater, I heard noises coming from downstairs.

"Fucking Trevor?!"

Hardin?

I rush to the living room and saw Hardin at the doorway as Trevor try to make him leave.

Hardin didn't let Trevor explain anything and he push him out from his way.

"Hardin?! What are you doing here?" I asked as I ran to him.

"What the fuck is Trevor doing here?" Hardin was so mad to see his own bestfriend at my house.

"He fucking took me home while you're too busy with Kendall!" I hissed.

"What the fuck are you talking about? I was with Zed and Trevor the whole time! I didnt follow Kendall nor chase her!" Hardin said as he kick the sofa.

"Calm down bro!" Trevor tried to calm Hardin down.

"No! Don't fucking touch me!"

"Hardin what the fuck! Get Out!" I shout and kicked Hardin out from the house.

Trevor closed the door as soon as Hardin left and came to me.

"Are you okay? Do you still want to watch the movie?" He asked concerns. I nod, staring at my foot.

"Yea, sure. Don't worry i'm okay."

"You sure?" He pull me into a hug.

"I'm sure. Thankyou Trevvy." I said as I broke the hug.

We both sit on the sofa and Trevor choose the movie.

"'After'? This movie again?" I said as he smiled.

"Well, it's your favourite movie after all." He smirked at me.

I chuckled. "You're right."

<—————————————>

After we finished the movie, I hug and bid my goodbye to Trevor before he closed the door behind him.

I look at the clock and see it's getting late already. I should get ready for bed. I thought.

Walking upstairs to my bedroom and closed the door. "Do you have fun?"

I screamed and turn around to see Hardin lay on my bed, reading a book that is in his hands. "How do you get here? Have you been spying on us?" I huffed and crossed my arms. Then I noticed the window is open. I guess he must be came from the window.

He just shrugged, still reading the book. "I think so. Since you and Trevor try to kick me out"

I rolled my eyes and stomped to close the window. "What do you want anyway?" I stood in front of him.

"I want to talk and see you" he replied, eyes finally met mine.

"Well I don't want to talk to you" I went to my bathroom and started brushing my teeth.

I hear him cursing and went to stand at the bathroom doorway. "Dammit, Trisha! You really think I follow Kendall home and fuck her? You know I wouldn't do that!"

I look at him through the mirror. "Wouldn't? Oh Hardin, you're so funny" I spit and rinse my mouth before I walk past Hardin. Getting myself ready to bed then Hardin quickly stood in front of me and grabbed both of my shoulder.

"Listen, I don't give a fuck about her. And I'm sorry for defending her because she spilled her coffee all over you"

I sighed, "Hardin, you—" I being cut off when I heard my mum's voice at downstairs.

"Batrisha, we're home!"

Me and Hardin looked at each other with our eyes widened. I literally forgot that my parents are back from business trip today.

"Shit, my parents are here! Look, go hide in the closet" I whisper to Hardin. He scrunch his nose, "I'm not hiding in there" he whisper-yell at me. "Just go"

"Batrisha, you there?" I hear my mum's voice coming from the hallway. I cursed under my breath as I push Hardin for him to hide in the closet. When I quickly closed it, my bedroom door swing open revealed my mother.

She smiled, "Hi, honey"

"Hey, mum! You guys home!" I smiled as I ran to hug her. "How's your day?" She started, "you don't feel boring home alone?"

I shook my head, "No, mum. You know I always left alone, Im used to it."

She chuckled, "Yeah. I'm sorry for always leaving you alone. It's just that there's too much things to handle" she groaned.

"I understand, mum. Where's dad?"

"Asleep already, he's tired. I'm going to bed now. Goodnight, dear"

"Goodnight, mum" she kissed on top of my head and leave the room. I closed the door and saw Hardin came out from the closet.

"You need to leave now, Hardin" I slowly said to him.

"What im going to say is, I don't like when you hangout with other guy" he said in low voice.

I furrowed my eyebrows, " Trevor is your friend, Hardin. You can't hate your own friend"

He rolled his eyes at me, "Doesn't matter. Can we hangout more often next time? Just. . . you and me?" I look up at him.

"Jealous, Scott?" I smirk at him.

He bit his bottom lip and look away. "I didn't say that I'm jealous"

I slowly chuckled, "Yes, you are. I can see your face reddened" I playful poke his cheek. "Alright, alright, I am. Jeez. . ." He push away my hand as we both giggle.

"Give me a hug before I leave" he open his arms, I wrapped my arms around his neck and his around my waist.

"and a kiss" he lean in as I push his face away.

"Bye, Hardin" I smiled at him.

He went to my window and slowly climb down. I look out the window see him hop in his Range Rover and drove away from my house. There he goes again.

"whew, that was close!" I exhaled.

After Hardin left, I was bored so I decided to open my snapchat. As i was watching my friend's story, I suddenly stopped because of Sara's story.

"Wha— Sara??" I said half shouting half whispering. It shows that Sara was out having a date with a boy.

She hold some boy's hand on the table without showing the guys face. No caption, just black and white filter.

wait—A BOY?!

I quickly dial Tessa's number, "Tessa! We need to talk. It's urgent!"

"Batrisha, what kind of urgent thing?" She yawned. I know she is asleep but I don't care.

"Have you seen Sara's snapchat?"

"I haven't seen yet. Why?"

I quickly sent her Sara's story and I hear her gasp.

"Sara? Is out with a boy? Well, isn't that normal? it's not like she haven't gone out with boys before."

"Yes i know that! But she didn't tell us about this. Why?" I made a point.

"Call her!"
