Natalia wakes up a little more late than usual today. Normally, she'd be the one to prepare coffee and even breakfast if her gut's feeling Calleigh wont mind to give her a turn at cooking. Calleigh, the petite blond, southern raised, and way-too-loving older sister, insists on making it for them herself. "The last time you tried to make sausage burgers, it was way too salty, and boy was still raw and bloody on the inside." she teased, giggling. "That means I'll have to be your mother from now on, alright?" She placed her hand on Nat's bare, tanned shoulder, and continued on to preparing their morning meal.
She gets out of bed, makes coffee, then showers. But while walking like a lazy little girl rubbing her eyes on her way to the bathroom, she notices that Calleigh's door is open. She wonders why. Curious of why Cal didn't make the coffee if she was the one to wake up first, she peaks one eye though the open 5 inch gap, enough to catch a full glimpse of her bed. She sees a familiar tan, muscular man, with buzzed hair, sitting upright, half naked, and his white tank top laid scattered on the floor. And sitting on him was who else but big sis.
It's Eric Delko. But I thought they broke up, she mouthed to herself.
Not wanting to be caught, she cautiously tip toes away from the door and makes her way to the bathroom with confused thoughts running around her head.
"I'll make coffee." Calleigh smiles, running her finger through Eric's chest in a swift movement, who's lying down and on the phone. But she wouldn't have to course, Surely Natalia already managed to do that, she thought.
"Hey." Natalia was sipping on her coffee. A bowl of honey corn flakes just inches from her cup. "Good mornin'!" she greeted back on her way to the kitchen. Natalia replies with a smile.
A minute later, awkward silence was in the air. Calleigh in suspicion on Natalia's unusual, quiet behavior. That she new he was here. "Saw you and Eric". She leaned by the counter and lets out a small laugh.
"It's complicated."
"And confusing." Natalia, having dated Eric before, is well aware of Eric's emotional issues, personal or something else. Calleigh, the girl he fell for. The girl who he himself said he wanted to spend the rest of his life with. Natalia was the only one besides Calleigh and Eric who knew about the break up that seemed impossible. And after Eric's revelations to his therapist, how could his recurring feelings for Calleigh possible not resurface. Calleigh felt the same way too. They're like a rubber band. That cliché metaphor when two people try their best to pull apart from each other, but finds their way back together again no matter what.
Hi guys sorry the first chapter was kinda short. This my first story in a long time.
