'Five more minutes,' I said, ignoring the phone that was constantly ringing.
There was a sudden knock on my door that made me jump. I hesitated to walk up to the door, I mean, who would come to my house at 6:00 p.m? I left the remote gently on the bed, before getting up and walking to the door.
I looked through the peep hole. 'Who is it?' I asked.
'It's me, Claire,' a preppy voice said.
I unlocked the door and led Claire in, who was holding a baby. 'What's with the baby?'
Her eyes widened. 'That's what I came here for. My aunt told me to watch Jason, but I have plans so I was wondering...'
I raised an eyebrow. 'Wondering what?'
'I was wondering if you can babysit him. Just for the night, please?' she pleaded.
'Haha, that's funny Claire! You should be a comedian,' I walked back to my bed.
She ran after me and grabbed my arm. 'Come on Jill! I'll owe you big time, please?'
I gave it some thought and sighed. What do I have to loose? 'Fine, but you seriously owe me.'
She squealed and gave me a big hug. After puttiing the baby in my arms and giving me the baby bag, she ran off. I was going to ask her what her plans where, but she left before I got to. I looked at the baby, I've never took care of a baby in my life. Since he was sleeping, I put him in the portable crib Claire brought. I slowly walked back to my bed so I could go to sleep, but as soon as I got to my bed he started crying.
Sighing, I walked to the crib and picked up the baby. I thought he would be thursted, so I took out his milk bottle. I put on his little Elmo bib, and started to feed him. He began to slowly fall asleep while he drank his milk. Once the milk was gone, I gently wiped his mouth with his bib. Now that he was sleeping once again, I tucked him in, and gave him a peck on the cheek.
'Hehe, hey beautiful. What are you up to?' asked a smooth voice.
I looked around and screamed when I saw Skye by the door. 'H-how did you get in here?'
He came closer and winked. 'I got in from the basement door.'
I really have to get that basement door boarded up.
Before I got to speak, the baby started to cry again. Just great...
I banged the back of my head against the wall. 'See what you did? I just put him to sleep, too.'
Skye raised an eyebrow. 'You have a baby?' he came closer to me, his expression turning serious. 'Who's the father?'
I pushed Skye away from me. 'He's not mine, I'm babysitting for a friend. Now he won't stop crying.'
Skye walked up to the crib and picked up Jason. As soon as Skye picked him up, he stop stopped crying. That surprised me and then angered me, how could he make Jason stop crying?
'I thought you only had that kind of effect on women?' I asked him.
Skye chuckled. 'That doesn't mean babies can resist me.'
I rolled my eyes and headed towards the basement stairs. 'I'm going downstairs, so tuck him in when you're done.'
I walked downstairs, breathing in the air that came in from the opened door. Hopefully Claire comes soon, babysitting isn't my thing. I threw myself on the squeaky bed and closed my eyes.
-1 Hour Later-
I slowly got off the bed and looked at the clock. 7:32 p.m. Oh snap, I wasn't suppose to fall asleep! I quickly ran u the stairs and looked for the baby. Jason wasn't in the crib, and Skye was asleep on my bed. I walked towards Skye, and began to poke his cheek constantly to wake him up.
Giving up, I closed up to his face. 'Skye?' I tried poking him again. 'Skye? Are you awake?'
Skye opened one eye. 'Hehe, so you're finally awake.'
I sheepishly smiled. 'Sorry about that. And, um, thank you for watching Jason. I owe you.'
He sat up from the bed and patted the spot next to him. I sat next to him and raised an eyebrow as he smiled at me.
He put his hand over mine. 'So now that we're alone, how about we get to know each other?'
I pulled my hand away. 'No.'
'What made you come here?' He asked, completely ignoring me.
'That's none of your buisness,' I said.
He frowned. 'Why do you try so hard to resist me?'
I turned around to look at him. 'Who said I was trying?'
There was an awkward silence. Skye turned around ans stared at the window. I wanted to say something, but nothing wanted to come out. What am I suppose to say to him? I'm not that stupid to tell all my information to a thief. Before I got to speak to Skye my phone rang.
'Hello? Who's this?' I asked.
There was a pause. 'Hello? Oh! Jill, it's Lumina, I wanted to ask you if you wanted to come to my party tomorrow?' She asked.
I looked back at Skye, who was still looking out the window.
'Sure, I'd love to come. Is there any theme?'
She squealed. 'Not this time! But, do you have a special someone? As a date?'
I sighed. 'No, nobody special so far. Well, I'll see you tomorrow, at around...?'
'Five o' clock sharp. See you then!'
I hung up the phone and turned to Skye. He slowly got up and walked to the door.
I looked at him. 'Hey Skye, do you want to-'
'Forget it,' he said. 'I know what you're doing.'
I smiled, does he finally realize that I've been ignoring him for the past six days? I got up and walked up to Skye.
I crossed my arms. 'What am I doing, Skye?'
'Hehe, your playing hard to get,' he said in his smooth voice. 'But don't worry, you'll fall for me.'
Skye came closer to me and bent down so that we were at the same level. He looked me in the eye and gave me a kiss on the left cheek. I raised an eyebrow and put hand over my cheek.
'When the full moon comes out, something magical will happen,' he told me.
I rolled my eyes. 'Whatever you say, Skye.'
He left the house and winked at me. 'Until the stars unite us again, my lovely maiden.'
I closed the door and smiled. I felt my cheeks turn red as I raised my hand to my cheeks again. Oh Goddess, don't tell me I'm actually falling for him.
Ugh, stupid theif.
