Heyyyyyy:) this chapter is short. Sorry!I've had basketball games these past few days:/ Next chapters shall be longer (if I can make them that way) and have more drama. I just wanted to put this chapter up now,since I have our final season game tomorrow. Then I'll more time to write:) I got some more fellow reviewers,and I wanna say thanks. :) Anyhoo,here's another! Enjoy!
Nicole had taken a shower,and dried her hair. She left it down,and put on the hoodie she brought with her.
She went downstairs,resisting the urge to grab and open the square box. As she reached the kitchen,Miss Mitchell was setting the table.
"Need any help,Miss Mitchell?" Nicole asked resting her elbows on a chair at the dinner table.
"Oh,no honey. You are the guest,after all." She replies.
"I insist." Nicole says.
"Why don't you help me by fetching Logan?"
"Hm. Okay. I will." Nicole said going back upstairs.
"Looooogggaaaannn!" Nicole sang,knocking on his closed bedroom door.
Nothing.
"Logan?" She says once again.
When yet there's no answer again,she opens his door.
Nicole discovered Logan was lying flat on his stomach on his bed,fast asleep. "Aw..." She whispered to herself. He looked so peaceful. And yet still so perfectly cute. She couldn't wake this kid. He was so sound asleep. He had seemed tired throughout the day.
Logan was tired. Like,SUPER tired.
He ran all day in P.E,and worked SO hard on his biology test. He still had that government project with James due next Friday,too. And on top of all of that,he still had chemistry homework,along with art. They had to paint a canvas of something special and dear to them. But that wasn't due for a while.
Nicole ran her hand over Logan's forehead,and then kissed it. "Sweet dreams..." she whispered to him before leaving.
"Where's Logan?" Miss Mitchell asked Nicole as she was coming down the stairs.
"He fell asleep." Nicole replied with a slight smile.
"Hm. Well...just you and me. Girl time!" She says happily.
Nicole chuckles,and nods her head.
Miss Mitchell sat down at a chair on the right,and Nicole sat in front of her. Miss Mitchell had served spaghetti and garlic bread. As both started eating,Miss Mitchell suddenly said, "So. You and Logan! I am so happy!"
Nicole almost choked on what she was eating. She coughed, "Excuse me?"
"You know! Logan and you make the cutest couple! He seems so happy!"
"Miss Mitchell,Logan and I aren't going out..."
Miss Mitchell cleared her throat, "You aren't?"
"Um,no..."
She spins her fork around her spaghetti and eats the rest of it. She pauses a bit,before speaking, "Shame." She gets up and takes her plate to the sink, "You done,sweetie?"
She just simply nods her head. Miss Mitchell takes her plate up and puts it in the sink. As she makes her way back to the dinner table,she says "Well,it's been a long day for me. I think I might just turn in for tonight. Feel free to browse and take whatever from the fridge,or watch TV whenever. It's your house,too. Remember that."
It was just 7:43. Nicole wasn't even tired. She might as well not get any sleep tonight.
"Thank you so much,Miss Mitchell." Nicole said as Miss Mitchell gave her a hug. "Goodnight." She said.
"Goodnight,honey. It's a Friday,stay up as long as you'd like." And with that,she disappeared into a room in the downstairs hallway.
Right before Nicole went upstairs,she washed the dishes and put them all away. As she turned off all the lights,she headed up but stopped at Logan's room. His light was on,and he sitting cris-cross on his bed rubbing at his eyes. Nicole knocked a bit,and Logan looked up,
"Hey." He said in a raspy voice. "Hey,Loges." She replied heading over to him. Logan moved over a bit and let Nicole sit down by him. He wrapped an arm around her and let her rest her head on his shoulder as he layed his head on hers and held her tighter. "You tired?" He asked.
"No...not at all actually. You?" She replied.
"Nope. Took a really great nap. Heard you come in,and made it even better."
She smiled at that and snuggled closer to him."What'd mom make?" He asked.
"Spaghetti and garlic bread."
"Mmm. I'll heat some up later." He replied .
It was quiet. Both of them just taking in the moment with each other. Nicole just wanting it to last forever,and as if all of her problems had dissolved. She wanted to be in his arms forever. But this made Logan think.
This girl could be his.
Could be his.
His babygirl. His sweetie. His baby.
Could be his wife...the mother of his children.
He just wished though.
Wished she felt the same way right now.
Wished that he could tell her everything,and work everything out in order for them to still have a bright future. Hopefully together.
What he wouldn't do to just hold her face and look into her eyes. Slowly bring their foreheads to touch,and lean in to kiss her. So passionately...
But this lead up to one thing...
Logan had fallen in true love with his best friend.
