FINALLY! I'm back! With the holidays out of the way and school being out I can finally write! Yay! I am so happy! Anyway to clarify the last chapter; Chris and his friends are no longer kids. They were at Blaineley's Sweet Sixteen and they got drunk. I am not up for drinking underage or anything but then again Chris is crazy. Also, this chapter they are in the month of February and Chef leaves in March so without further ado, the next chapter begins!
Chris sat in his room 'studying' for his SAT's. Obviously, he wasn't studying since he had his phone in his hands and was texting his two best friends. Yes, now he considered Josh his best friend, the kid was a geek but he grows on you; at least that's what Chris told himself.
Josh: What u up 2 man?
Chris: Nothin much, just studyin.
Josh: Ha, yeah right.
Chris: Shut up.
Josh: I'm not even talking to u! I'm txting!
Chris: *Rolls eyes*
Josh: Did you just virtually roll your eyes at me? Gosh you're so weird!
Chris: Uh huh.
Chris switched to his conversation with Chef.
Chef: I heard you virtually rolled your eyes at Josh.
Chris: Yup.
Chef: Cool. Anyway wanna do somethin today?
The black haired teen usually would reply yes immediately to his friends question but now there was something holding him back. Chef was going to be leaving for the navy in one week and Chris didn't want his friend to see him so upset.
Chris: Idk.
Chef: Come on! We can rally up the whole gang and have a sleepover like old times!
Chris: It's not like old times anymore Chef.
Chef: Chris, I only have a week with you guys. Don't ruin it for me.
Chris: You guys always did say that I was too dramatic.
Chef: We still do! Now call up Blaineley and stop ignoring Josh so we can get this party started!
Chris switched again back to his Aqua eyed friend.
Josh: Chris!
Josh: Stop ignoring me!
Josh: Jerk.
Chris: You called?
Josh: I hate when you ignore me!
Chris: Poor Joshy.
Josh: :(
Chris: Anyway…wanna come over tonight and have a sleepover before Chef leaves next week.
Josh: For shizzle!
Chris: You know I can un-invite you right?
Josh: Yeah, sorry. I'll start packing.
Putting his phone down, Chris went down stairs to find his mother sewing on the couch. "When did you start sewing!" The teen boy laughed.
"Looks like the bat finally came out of its cave," Sally put down her badly sewn scarf and looked at her son. It was true; Chris hadn't come out of his room in a long time, every day after school he would march up to his room and not be heard from again until dinner time. He was really getting upset about Chef leaving.
"Yeah, yeah. Can I have a sleepover?"
Sally smiled, "Alright! Who is coming?"
"Josh, Chef, and the blond monster," Chris stuck out his tongue.
"Oh, please you know you like her! Remember when you use to want a Barbie because you said it looked like Blaineley!"
Chris blushed, "I was young and stupid and-"
"In love?" Sally interrupted.
The brown eyed boy growled, "NO!"
"Then why are you blushing?"
Rolling his eyes for the second time that day Chris grabbed his coat and ran to the door.
"I was just messing with you Chris! Where are you going?" The adult giggled.
"I'm just going for a walk!"
"Have a LOVEly time!"
Chris slammed the door.
Standing in front of Blaineley's door Chris knocked twice and waited.
"Hey, Chris!" The blue eyed blond smiled, "What's up?"
"Nothing, how about you?"
Blaineley laughed, "Just chilling. Want to come in?"
Chris nodded and stepped inside. He felt the warmth of the house instantly and pulled off his jacket.
"Who is here?" Angelina, Blaineley's mother, asked. "Oh, Chris! What a pleasure."
Chris had the urge to bow. Blaineley's family always acted like royalty with all their fancy talk.
He rubbed the back of his neck and smiled, "Yeah, hey."
"Would you like a warm chocolate cream with topping and sprinkles?"
The black haired boy gave her a confused look.
Blaineley shook her head, "She asked if you wanted hot chocolate."
"Oh, then yeah I would love that! Thanks!" Chris smiled. Blaineley grabbed his hand and pulled him towards the kitchen. Suddenly, Chris remembered his mother saying that he was in love and he jerked his hand away from his friend.
"What's wrong?"
"I can walk by myself!"
Blaineley shrugged and walked to her counter and sat on a bar stool. Chris followed suit and Angelica handed them their hot chocolate before leaving the two teens alone. "So, why are you here?"
Chris put down his drink and opened his mouth to speak.
"Actually," Blaineley interrupted, "I think I know why."
"You do?"
"Yeah, I mean your best friend is leaving in a week and you wanted to talk about it with someone and since Josh is always with his girlfriend you settled with me." Blaineley took a sip of her coco.
Chris flinched. Did people really think he was that heartless? "What? I wouldn't settle on you! You're my best friend too!"
"Oh you mean me? The monster?"
"I don't really think you're a monster! You just act like you are sometimes." Blaineley glared, "Ok, sorry that was mean, what I am trying to say is that you are important to me too." Chris looked away from the pretty blond next to him.
"AWW!" Blaineley hugged the blushing boy, "That is so sweet."
Chris rolled his eyes and gave her a light shove. Blaineley retaliated by pushing him back harder. The brown eyed boy wobbled on his chair and fell backwards, Blaineley reached over to help him before he fell but she only succeeded in falling right on top of him. The two friends sat in shock then began to laugh. Blaineley's hair tickled Chris' nose and when he looked up into her eyes he stopped laughing. She was closer to him then he thought. Blaineley noticed that Chris had stopped laughing and she smiled at him.
Chris closed his eyes and suddenly he felt a pair of lips on his. Eyes flying wide open, Chris sat up and smacked his head with Blaineley's.
"OW!"
"What the hell!" The blushing boy put a hand to his lips.
Blaineley looked confused and scared, "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to!"
Chris stood up and backed away from his friend. He looked at the door then back to Blaineley and at the door again.
"Chris?"
"I have to go."
"Wait!"
He didn't. Chris ran out the door and he didn't stop until he was back in front of his apartment. When he opened the door Josh and Chef were sitting on his couch sewing with his mother. They looked up at the same time with relief that Chris finally arrived and they could do something fun.
"Where's Blaineley?" Chef stood and put an arm around Chris.
"She couldn't come."
Josh laughed, "More like you didn't want face her wrath! When she gets angry she is like fire!"
Chef nodded, "Chris just couldn't take the heat."
Poor Blaineley. Next chapter is going to be about Chef leaving and Blaineley's revenge! Please review I hope you all had a good holidays and that you enjoyed this chapter!
