Chapter two

I groaned and rolled over as loud music awoke me. I wanna fuck you hard, I wanna feel you deep, I wanna rock your body, I wanna taste your sweet! Blared out through the house. I rubbed my eyes and opened them to see Dahvie standing over me with a cheeky grin on his face. It was then that I noticed the stereo was directly next to my bed.

'Wakey, wakey sleeping beauty!' He said, kicking my bed.

'Ugh… Couldn't you have woke me up in a nicer way?' I said, my voice thick with sleep as I sat up and made more sense of my surroundings, the confusion of sleep quickly subsiding.

'Haha! Waking up to Sexting is awesome, what more could you want?' Dahvie replied and sat on the end of my bed, smiling at me. I quickly covered my face with my hands as I realised that I must look awful, I always do in the morning.

'Sorry you have to see me like this, I must look like Frankenstein.' I flipped the sheets off and jogged to the bathroom.

'You could never look like Frankenstein, love.' I heard Dahvie chuckle from the other room.

I took a quick shower and brushed my teeth. I strolled back to my room wrapped in a towel, poking my head around the corner to check if Dahvie was still there. It was clear. I rummaged through my over-night bag and retrieved all the clothes I needed along with my makeup bag. I tugged on my t-shirt and jeans before drying and styling my hair. I quickly brushed on some makeup before trotting downstairs, led by the smell of bacon, egg and sausage.

'Mmm, smells good!' I said, taking a seat at the kitchen table just as Jayy placed a plate for each of us on the table. I hugged Jayy around the waist as a thank you then dug in. Jayy sat down to join me just as Dahvie walked in.

'You cooked breakfast? Thanks bro' He said, patting Jayys shoulder as he walked to his chair. Jayy grinned with a mouthful of egg and mumbled something a long the lines of no worries.

After breakfast we all stepped out into the warm sun and made our way to the car. Dahvie drove and of course Jayy called shotgun, so I had no choice but to sit in the back. The back of Dahvies car was messy, I had to push various black bags and blankets out of the way to clear me some sitting space. On the way to the shopping centre, Jayy put on some of Blood On The Dance Floors finest tracks. The journey was short, but we had time to listen to Scream for my Ice Cream, Yo Ho, Bewitched, and Nirvana before pulling up in the crowded car park of our local mall. Before Dahvie stepped out of the car he reached into the glove box and retrieved some expensive-looking sunglasses and slid them on his face.

The three of us met around the same side of the car, and Dahvie took my hand. This was nothing out of the ordinary; he always held my hand. It wasn't like we were dating or anything.

As soon as we were inside the mall, the cool air from the air conditioning soothed our baking skin. It was a little too hot today, but nothing unbearable. Jayy automatically shot off in the direction of all the clothes shops; Dahvie and I struggled to keep up.

When Jayy was shopping, he was impossible to contain. One moment he would be right next to you, and then next he would be in the shop three doors down trying on a whole new outfit. He was worse than me, and im the girl!

'We should just leave him to it… Im pretty sure he will be occupied for a while with all those clothes' Dahvie said to me, fiddling with my hand as we sat on a bench outside of the clothes shop, watching Jayy paw through the clothes rack with enthusiasm.

'That's true I guess, I don't think he'd even notice we're gone.' I said, my eyes drifted in a day-dreamy gaze towards a tall, leafy plant just to the side of us.

'Well, im not a huge fan of clothes shopping… Are you?' He asked me, snapping me out of my daydream.

'Ha, not really. Im just a simple jeans and a band merch t-shirt kind of girl, not all that into fashion.' I laughed and smiled at Dahvie whom I hadn't noticed was gazing at me intently, thinking about something.

'Your thinking, what's on your mind?' I said, bumping my shoulder against his.

'Oh nothing. Hey I know what we can do. There's a shop here that im always happy in, you wanna go?' He asked, a grin spreading across his face as he bounced up and down in excitement. I returned his smile as he pulled me up from the bench eagerly and practically dragged me past the various shops. Even if I wanted to protest, I couldn't. He was too strong.

Finally, after my arm had almost been ripped out of its socket, we came to a holt outside a shop with a mouth-wateringly sweet smell that drifted out onto the walkway. I read the sign and smiled, I should have known.

Candyland. A huge sign read, in rounded friendly letters. I looked up at Dahvie with a smile on my face, he had his eyes closed and he seemed to be inhaling the amazing scent coming from the assorted sugar filled treats inside.

Dahvie was adorable. He really was, the sort of adorable that you can just look at for hours on end just squealing in delight at his cheeky grin.

I shook my head at him then tugged on his hand.

'Are we planning on going in? Or are you just gonna stand here all day smelling it?' I teased with a brow raised.

'Sorry haha! You know how much I like savouring the moment.' He winked and followed me into the shop.

The place was almost magical! It was like being inside, well, Candyland! The name of the shop was not wrong; it really was like a world filled with every kind of candy you could imagine. Shelves were stacked high with brightly coloured fruity, sweet candy. I gazed around the shop with an excited grin on my face. A friendly looking girl sat behind the counter with a welcoming smile on her face.

'Welcome to Candyland!' She said to us before turning to the counter behind her and wiping it down with a pink cloth. I tried not to burst out laughing when Dahvie squeezed my hand and continued her sentence by whispering in my ear;

'…I'll split your ass in two!'

Dahvie let go of my hand and strolled over to the wall with all the different flavoured sherbets on and began filling a tall pot with as many different sherbets as he could fit. I chuckled softly to myself as I watched him; he was like a small child, high off all the sugar.

It was then that I reached into my back pocket to get my purse to see how much cash I had with me.

'Oh shit!' I said before groaning and practically face-palming.

'What's wrong, babe?' Dahvie turned round and looked at me with wary eyes.

'Im such an idiot… I left my frigging purse at home didn't I! Ugh.' I shook my head and looked down, why am I so stupid?

Dahvie placed the lid on his pot of sherbet before walking over to me and putting his hand on my shoulder.

'Don't worry, love. Ill get you what you want today.' He smiled warmly. I shook my head, quickly brushing it off.

'No you don't have to do that for me! I was the one stupid enough to forget to bring money to a shopping trip…' Once again I shook my head at my own stupidity.

'I want to though! I insist. We cant have Jayy leaving with a tonne of clothes, me leaving with a tonne of sugar, and you leaving with a tonne of fuck all can we?' He pleaded, nudging my arm. I smiled at him.

'Are you sure? I will pay you back, I swear!'

'Pfft, don't worry about it. What kind of gentleman would I be to make you pay me back?'

'Oh thank you Dahvie!' I exclaimed, throwing my arms around his neck hugging him tightly.

The two of us left Candyland with a big bag of various candies each. We stopped by a gourmet ice cream shop before heading back to where we left Jayy. I had a tropical twist sorbet ice cream and Dahvie had a double chocolate one. We strolled slowly through the mall hand in hand, window-shopping and licking our ice creams, enjoying them too much to talk.

We met Jayy in the centre of the mall. He took one look at our full bags and laughed.

'Ah Candyland! How did I guess that was were you went?' Before I knew it Jayy and nicked my ice cream from my hand and took a lick. His face twisted as he shuddered.

'Blegh, tropical!' I laughed in his face and took it back.

'Ha! That's what you get for being an ice cream thief!' I grinned.

'So Jayy, how did the haul go?' Dahvie asked, eyeing up the bags that hung on each of his arms.

'Not bad! I got 4 new pairs of trousers, 5 awesome tops, a new jacket, and a load more jewellery!'

'Sounds successful to me!' Dahvie grinned.

'Mhm, im starving though! Got anything good in your bags?' He said, peeking into our candy bags and pulling out a chocolate bar from Dahvies.

'Oooh! Can I have this?' He smiled and pleaded with Dahvie.

'Go on then.' Dahvie sighed but laughed at Jayy as he tore the wrapper off and devoured it.

I skipped forward and grabbed Jayys hand so I was standing in between them, holding both of their hands.

'You wanna go anywhere else? Or is it home time?'

'Im ready if you are' Jayy said, smiling down at me. He was so tall.

'Well im ready to go now! You wanna pick up some pizza on the way home? Its on me' Dahvie offered, squeezing my hand.

'Ohhh yes please!' Jayy and I both said that the same time, we laughed.

We all walked back out to the car, and now not only did I have all the mess that was there before but I also had to juggle everyone's shopping bags in the back of the car! Oh how I love my friends…
