I know, I know. I haven't updated in almost three months. I'm a bitch. BUT I'm updating now! I'll try to update more often, but I said TRY. We all know I'm terrible at updating quickly.

The girls and I were sitting in my living room, we decided to have a little sleepover and I offered to have it at my place. "So," Camille turned to me. "What's up with you and Logan?"
I shrugged, hugging my pillow closer to my stomach. "I don't know! I mean, I do like him, but I guess I'm just... Scared."
"Scared of what?" Stephanie pressed.
"Scared that he'll dump you once he sleeps with you?" Camille suggested. I sighed, nodding.
"Yeah, pretty much."
Lucy decided to put her two cents in. "If Logan wants something, he'll go for it."
"I know that. But what if he just wants me for the sex, like all the other girls he's been with?"
"If that happens," Lucy smirked. "We'll get revenge on him!" We all laughed at the thought of it. My smile fell slightly as I remembered the closet moment between Logan and I from the other day.
Lucy narrowed her eyes at me. "Why do I feel like there's something you're hiding from us?"
I groaned. "How do you know these things?!"
Lucy grinned, wiggling her fingers around in the air. "I'm magical. Now, talk."
"It's not a big deal though. Logan kinda... Well... He locked the two if us in a supply closet for like, an hour. Just because he wanted to know why I won't go out with him." I rolled my eyes before continuing. "First of all, he hasn't even asked me out! I sure as hell won't ask him out, so it's all up to him. Second, my feelings for him are always on and off. He goes from sweet Logan to slutty Logan, I can't handle it! Third of all, Raquelle. She hates me and loves Logan, see how that works out? I'm not jealous of that stick figure clown look alike but I just really hate her and want to skin her alive, burn her, then collect her ashes and hide it in a small jar which will be kept in her parents' kitchen, then they'll mistake her ashes for coffee and drink it! Okay, rant over."
Lucy, Stephanie and Camille just stared at me once I finished talking. I raised an eyebrow, popping a piece of popcorn in my mouth. "What?"
"Three things," Camille said. "One, we see where you're coming from and we totally understand."
"Two," Lucy took over. "Violent much? But I like the idea..."
"And three," Stephanie continued. "Did you even breathe during that whole thing?"
I thought about it for a while before shrugging. "Probably not."
"Okay, let's watch some movies. That way you can get Logan and Raquelle off of your mind," Lucy offered. I nodded and the four of us split up. Lucy came back with some DVDs, Stephanie and Camille returned with more pillows and blankets. I walked back into the living room with some more snacks, setting them down in between the four of us and sitting next to Stephanie. As soon as I saw the title of the movie I grinned. It was a horror movie, and I HATE horror movies, but this was one of my all time favourites.
During the whole movie Stephanie and Camille, who were sitting in between Lucy and I, kept cringing from all the blood and violence, whispering and 'ew' or 'gross' every few minutes. Lucy on the other hand, had her eyes glue to the screen, only moving to get more popcorn.
"So that's what's inside an eyeball," she muttered.
...Yeah I have no idea why I like this movie so much.
When it ended Camille and Stephanie were too freaked out to watch another movie because Lucy had only brought horror movies. So instead we watched reruns of Gravity Falls.
See? I'm not the only one that likes that show.
At the start of out fifth episode I heard a low voice. "Boo." Lucy, Stephanie and Camille shrieked at the sound, I turned around to see James, Carlos and Kendall behind the couch, holding their stomaches as they laughed. Camille growled before reaching over and slapping James upside the head.
"That was SO not funny guys."
"Actually, it kinda was," I spoke up.
Carlos frowned. "Weren't you scared?" James hit Carlos' shoulder lightly.
"Of course she wasn't. She didn't even flinch!"
Kendall spoke, now sitting next to Lucy on the couch. "Damn. Now Logan's mini plan won't work." I tilted my head to the side.
"What plan?" Suddenly I was blindfolded by a pair of hands. I reached up, pulling Logan's hands away from my eyes and turning to him. "Nice try Loges, but you'll have to try a bit harder to scare me."
"You're no fun." Logan pouted.
Carlos plopped down between me and Stephanie, trying to casually drape an arm around Stephanie's shoulder. "So, whatcha doin'?"
"Watching reruns of Gravity Falls," I paused, leaning a little closer to Carlos. "Don't worry Los, she likes you too." I whispered. I laughed as he blushed furiously, eyes lighting up.
The eight of us continued to watch Gravity Falls for a while before I got up to get a drink. I stayed in the kitchen for a while, lost in my own random thoughts as I sipped on my pink lemonade.
Yes, I love pink lemonade. It's amazing.
Someone cleared their throat and I turned around to see Logan leaning back against the kitchen table. I set my glass on the counter. "Oh... hey Logan."
"Hey," he ran a hand through his hair, sighing as he shoved his hands in his pockets. "Look Amber, I'm really sorry for the other day. You know, the supply closet thing. It's just, oh I can't do this," he took a deep breath. "What I wanted to say the other day didn't come out right and I... Why won't you go out with me?"
I took a step forward and crossed my arms. "I'm not sure who you really are. Sometimes you're funny and caring Logan, then you turn into slutty manwhore Logan - it's so confusing! I just wanna get to know the real you." Logan nodded in understanding.
"So uh, now that's out of the way... are we cool?"
I smiled at him and nodded. "We're cool." Logan opened his arms.
"C'mon, I promise I won't try anything." I laughed, remembering what happened the last time he said that. I took another step forward and wrapped my arms around Logan's torso, his arms going around my shoulders as I lay my head on his shoulder. We stayed like that for a moment, just holding each other with the TV playing in the background. I felt Logan bring me closer as he tightened his grip on my shoulders, almost in a possessive but loving way. We pulled apart and simply stared at each other. Our arms were still wrapped around each other and I have no doubt that Logan planned on staying like that for a while. He dipped his head down a little, so our lips were just a breath away. I pushed myself away from Logan and grabbed my glass from the counter when I heard footsteps. Lucy appeared in the doorway of the kitchen.
"Hey guys, whatcha doin'?"
I tried my best to look casual. "We were just, uh, talking."
"Uh huh." Lucy nodded, not seeming convinced. "Now come, we're playing a game."
Logan shook his head at Lucy. "What is with you and games?" Lucy grabbed my wrist and Logan's wrist, dragging us in the direction of the living room.
"Doesn't matter, there's nothing wrong with playing a game every now and then. Now hurry up!" We joined the others on the couch again.
Kendall stood in front of us with two flashlights. "The game is called Spotlight. Two people will be 'it' and they will have the flashlights. All the lights will be off except for the kitchen lights. Everyone else will hide somewhere in the house. If the people who are 'it' find you and guess who you are, then you go to the 'jail'. In this case it's the kitchen. I've put a spoon and pan on the kitchen table. If you make it to the kitchen without being caught then you bang the spoon on the pan and everyone in the 'jail' is free. Got it?" Everyone nodded. "Who wants to be 'it'?" Lucy and James shot their hands up, and Kendall handed the flashlights to them. He made his way over to the fuse box near the front door. "Thirty seconds to hide starting from-"
"Wait!" I cut Kendall off. I grabbed a key from the little bowl on the coffee table and ran up to my room, locking it before going back downstairs. Stephanie asked what that was all about. "Knowing James, he's gonna go into my room and look for some lace lingerie or something. Knowing Lucy, she's gonna do the same thing, as well as look for any special toys I might own. WHICH I DON'T." I put the key in my back pocket.
"Anyway," Kendall flipped a switch, all the lights going off. Minus the kitchen, of course. "Thirty seconds to hide starting from... now!" Everyone split up.
I ran into my beautiful recording studio and quietly shut the door. Eventually I got bored leaning against the wall, so I started walking around in small circles. Suddenly two arms were wrapped around my waist, a chin resting on my shoulder. "Well, well. Great minds think alike." The mystery person whispered.
...Actually I think anyone would know that it was Logan.
"Are we always going to run into each other like this?" I asked him, not moving from my spot.
"I kinda like when this happens," Logan replied, also not moving. "So uh, I have a terrible memory. Can you remind me what happened ten minutes ago?"
I turned around so I was facing him. My eyes adjusted to the darkness, and I could faintly see the outline of Logan's face. "Oh, you mean this?" I brushed my lips against his before smirking and pulling away. As I turned around and reached for the doorknob to leave Logan grabbed my wrist.
"What was that for?!" He whisper shouted.
"It's what happened. We never actually did kiss tonight, you know."
Next thing I knew his lips were covering mine as he brought me closer to him. He deepened the kiss, biting my bottom lip. I granted him access, not bothering to fight for dominance. I felt Logan's hands slip into the back pockets of my jeans and pull me even closer. Just as I was getting into the kiss Logan pulled away and opened the door of the recording studio. He smirked at me, holding the key to my room in his hand. My jaw dropped as Logan grinned and ran upstairs.
"LOGAN MITCHELL YOU GET BACK HERE!"
Ugh, I'm such a review whore. But I really want to know what you guys think of this story, especially all you ghost readers out there. So review! :)
