Chapter 10
I didn't have very dark curtains in the living room and the sunlight was extremely bright. I felt around for my pillow so I could cover my face and get some more sleep. I couldn't find it. "Where the hell is my pillow?" I opened my eyes so I could see what I was doing. I found it; under Kendall's head. And I was lying on Kendall… And he looked so peaceful. His blonde hair fell over his eyes and his mouth hung open a little. I smiled.
I decided to lie back down. I mean Kendall was much more comfortable than my pillow. I closed my eyes and tried to go back to sleep, but the sunlight wouldn't let up. I sighed, not gonna get anymore sleep. I shifted slightly not wanting to wake him up. I was at the end of the bed and was just about to get up when an arm wrapped around my waist and pulled me back down.
"Where do you think you're going?" Kendall whispered into my ear.
I turned around so that I was facing him, "I couldn't sleep anymore, so I was gonna get up."
His arm tightened over my wait as he pulled me closer, "No, you can't," he said simply.
I laid my head against his chest, he was so comfy. This was perfect, and I never wanted to move. I looked up at him so to see him looking at me. "What?" I asked him.
He leaned down and kissed me, then pulled away. He smiled sheepishly, "Sorry."
"For what?" I asked him as I reached up to kiss him again.
He shifted so he could hold my face in his hand.
Someone cleared their throat. We pulled apart instantly. Dustin and Faith were standing there looking at us; Dustin was looking at us awkwardly and Faith was mean-mugging Kendall.
"Good morning, kiddos!" I told them as I sat up. "How'd you guys sleep?"
"Alright," Faith shrugged. "Not as well as you, though."
I blushed, "right, well, why don't you guys go brush your teeth and I'll make some chocolate chip pancakes!"
Dustin ran into the bathroom, and Faith's eyes narrowed as she followed him.
Kendall sat up, "I should get going."
"You don't have to; you're welcome to stay for breakfast."
"So I can get mean-mugged by your little cousin again?" He said as he laughed. "Thanks, but no thanks. Besides, I made plans with the guys, so I really do have to go."
We fixed the couch and folded all the blankets. I walked him to the door.
"Last night was fun," I said. "Even if I feel asleep for most of the movie."
He leaned in and our lips met.
"Casey?" Dustin asked. "Can I help make the pancakes?"
"Yea, of course you can." I told him. I turned back to Kendall. "I'll see you later."
He smiled and nodded. "Can I get a hug goodbye Dustin?" Kendall said as he stooped to his level.
"Are you gonna kiss me too?" Dustin asked as he made a face.
I could not stop laughing.
"No, I won't kiss you," Kendall said with a smile.
"Okay," Dustin said as he leaned in. "Bye Kendall."
I closed the door and looked at Dustin.
"Why were you kissing Kendall?" He asked me.
I wasn't sure how to answer that, "Uhm, because I like him."
"So you can kiss people you like?" He asked excitedly.
"Yes. Uhm no."
"Then why were you kissing him?" He asked confused.
"I can kiss people that I like," I explained. "But you can't." I told him.
He made a face, "Why not?"
I laughed, "Because you're not old enough. Who do you wanna kiss anyway?"
He blushed, "No one! We should start making the pancakes now."
I laughed, who would have thought that my five year old cousin would be the one embarrassed about a relationship question instead of me. I let it go, and we started making breakfast.

The rest of the day passed by in a blur. The kiddos and I went shopping and I showed them around L.A. They loved all the stores and the beaches and the liveliness of L.A. We got home around five ish. They were pooped out; I can't say that I blame them. We did a lot today.
Even though I was tired, I felt the need to study.
"Are you studying?" Faith asked me.
I shrugged, "More like reviewing, I studied long before you got here, I'm just tryna keep it fresh." At that moment, my phone started ringing. I got a text from a girl at school. I opened it, Final moved up to today. In an hour! Get here now!
"WHAT?"
Faith's eyes widened, "What, what happened?"
"My final got moved up. To today!" I told her.
"Oh, is that a bad thing?" She asked.
"Yea! What am I supposed to do with you guys?"
"Can we go hang out with big D?" Dustin asked.
"I don't know if he's home, Dustin, but maybe Kendall will be home," I said. "Wait here," I told them as I ran across the hall and knocked on the door.
Kendall answered immediately, "Hello," he said with a smile and leaned in.
"Kendall, I need a favor," I said getting straight to the point.
He receded, "Uh okay?"
"I'm sorry, but my final got moved up and I can't leave the kids by themselves, so I was wondering if"
He cut me off, "If I could watch them for a while."
I nodded.
"I would love to, but the guys are gonna come over in a bit," he told me.
"That's fine," I told him. "Let me go get them." I quickly walked across the hall and grabbed what I needed for class. "Okay guys, you're gonna hang out with Kendall for a while, while I go take my final."
"Will Dustin be there?" Little D asked.
"Maybe," I told him. "Come let's go!"
They crossed the hall and entered Kendall's apartment. He was waiting at the door. "Thank you!" I told him as I hugged him. "I owe you big time!"
He laughed.
"No pun intended. I'll be back in about two hours."
He nodded, "Sounds good, good luck on your final."
I smiled and wrapped my arms around his neck. "Thank you! And sorry about before, but," I stood on my toes and kissed him.
He smiled, "Don't you have somewhere to be."
"Right," I said as I untangled my arms from around him. "I'll be back in a bit. Bye guys, be good," I called over his shoulder.
"We will," Faith said.
I left then, but I could have sworn I heard Faith tell Kendall, "We need to talk."
Gee, I wonder what it is that they need to talk about. I hope you guys liked this chapter, I really enjoyed writing the beginning!:) go review3 KEEP ON RUSHING!
