My Childhood Friend
Chapter 6: Sleep Over
We arrived at my house and noticed that my mom left a note outside the door. Glitch read it with me and my best friend gazed at me with a grin. I glanced back at him while giving me a weird stare.
"I think I'll just stay outsi-"Glitch dragged me to his house just across the street but I freed my hand and ran back to my house, unfortunately I don't have the keys that's why I'm going to sleep at Glitch's.
"Nice try, (Y/n)…" Glitch said with a peculiar smile as he stared at me with his rare bright green eyes. "Whatcha gonna do? Break the door? Brilliant." He added as he watched me twitching the knob.
I leaned on the door and looked at my best friend as he sat on the stairs, waiting for me to come with him back at his house.
"Take your time. You're never going to open the door without breaking it…" he said coldly when he heard that me, still trying to open it.
"Then I'll…. I'll just sleep here." I said feeling unsure and he looked at me with his brow raised.
"What?" I added, "there's a settee here, see?" I said while pointing at the small sofa not far from where I was.
He stood up and walked away from me with his hands in his pocket. "Good luck!" He said and raised his hands. I followed him with my eyes until he entered his house and I sighed in relief.
"Where's (Y/n)? " Glitch's mom asked and the Asian boy opened the curtains and pointed where I was.
"And you're going to let her-" His mom was cut off when Glitch went to his room. The Asian's mom grinned and shook her head and went back to cooking.
"He'll be back…" she murmured.
Glitch kept looking through his window checking me but I'm already lying down on the settee while listening to my music. He groaned and banged his head with his palm and looked at me again.
"What the heck is wrong with that girl!" He shouted to himself and looked again. "That's what she wants…." He said to himself, "I'll… let her." He added.
He threw himself to his bed and played his music aloud. Suddenly, he sat up and scratched his head violently while groaning.
"Of course I can't just her sleep outside!" he yelled with anger.
Suddenly he saw a guy, with two or three friends with him, was about to pass by my house. He wiped his cute, round face and banged his head against the window.
He ran as fast as he could to get to me before the guys do. I looked at him and grinned as he ran towards me.
"What are you doing here?" I said hiding my smile. He glared at I and looked at the guys as they passed by while looking weirdly at me.
"Oh…" I said. I looked up to my best friend who's still looking at the guys.
"See?" Glitch said angrily but I just put my earphone in my ear and lie back down.
"Oh! FOR THE LOVE OF!" Glitch said angrily and he pulled me up and dragged me to his house. His grip was tighter and stronger so I can't free my hand.
My best friend opened the door and shouted to his mom that he's already home with me while dragging me to his room. I found my things on Glitch's bed and groaned as I looked at him, also glimpsing at me furiously. I tried to push him out of the door but he kept pulling me away from it.
I got tired and sat on his bed while staring at my best friend who's still standing in front of the door, guarding it.
"You know I have another option." I said with my arms crossed while staring at the Asian boy.
"To sleep outside?" he said and glared at me, "like I will let that happen." He said with a peculiar tone.
Groaning, I grabbed some clothes from my bag and looked at Glitch, "I'm going to change." I said shyly and he did a salute trying to faze me. "Yes ma'am!" he shouted and closed the door behind him.
I was about to take off my top when the door opened, "Wait, wait!" Glitch exclaimed while covering his eyes, "I'm… just going to… get something." he added.
"Remove my damn hand out of your eyes, I'm still dressed." I said angrily while blushing.
"Oh…" he said bashfully and ran to grab something on his bed, "Thanks!" he added and closed the door again.
I uttered a laugh and changed after. I was brushing my hair in front of the mirror when Glitch knocked.
"Come in!" I yelled and he opened the door slowly and peeked before he entered.
He walked to his cabinet and grabbed clothes and went straight to the bathroom. I lie down on his couch while listening to my music as I closed my eyes. Suddenly, he took off my earphone and I glanced at him angrily.
"What's the big idea?!" I shouted at him frantically and he smirked.
"You're going to sleep on my bed. I'm going to sleep here." He said serenely but I shook my head and turned my back to him.
"I'm going to sleep here." I said stubbornly. Suddenly, he carried and put me down on his bed.
"No! Glitch!" I yelled furiously but he didn't listen. "Put me down!" I added.
He ran back to his couch and occupied the space to give me not enough room. "This is my room and I will decide who'll sleep on my bed!" Glitch shouted as he removed my arms off his T-shirt.
Groaning, I sat on his bed with my arms crossed while looking at my thoughtful best friend with my bright eyes.
"Alrighty then…." I said and put one of Glitch's pillows on the floor and slept on it. My best friend scratched his black wet hair and stared at me while I'm lying on the floor.
"Seriously?" he said gloomily and glared at me. "Fine… sleep on the floor…" he added. He sat back and waited for me to fall asleep and I did.
Glitch walked closer to me slowly trying not to wake me up. He looked at my face and grinned. He slowly lifted and gently lay me properly on his bed. He moved the blanket slowly closer to me and turned his night light on.
He sat beside me for a while, brushing my hair with a grin. He kissed my cheek without me knowing and whispered without me hearing.
"You're really driving me crazy…" Glitch said heartily with a grin.
He went back to his couch and lay down as when he put his earphone on and stared at me until he fell asleep.
