Chapter 4: Friend's or Foe's
Well. I didn't put a cliff hanger on this one, so enjoy.
There was a knock at the door. I breathed a quick sigh of relief, and opened it quickly, "Kayla." I heard as soon as the door opened. It was Sean Masters; the guy next door. I met him right when I'd moved in considering I needed some help carrying my heavy stuff up the 3 flights of stairs, and Sean well, I guess he had nothing better to do.
"Hi, Sean what's up?" I greeted.
"Um, not much just got back from the Dells, not a lot of people showed up at the party, and I'm still too awake to get some sleep." He explained quickly.
"Kayla, who's at the –"Reid had started as he came up behind me.
There was suddenly a lot of Tension in the air. "Masters." Reid greeted in the most unpleasant tone, ever.
"Garwin." Sean growled out the same way Reid did. His brown eyes flashed in anger. His brown spiked hair making him seem slightly taller then he really was, but considering who he was standing off with Reid. Straightening up did nothing for the poor guy. "Oh. Uh, so you guys know each other?" I asked trying to lighten the mood
"Yeah, something like that." Sean said. "How'd you two meet?" Sean asked between clenched teeth. I started to answer but I wasn't fast enough.
"We met tonight." Reid clarified.
"Oh, and your already in her dorm, of course that's how you like it, right?" Sean interrupted. My eyebrows rose at that as if to saw Excuse me?
"Yeah, I am in her dorm, glad you're leaving, now."
"Leaving? Garwin, I live right next door. So I'll have to hear it if you manage to get into her pants too."
"Okay, guys-"I tried to cut in but Reid was once again to quick with his words.
"Yeah, I'll make sure we're real loud for you, but I'm sorry I have a no viewing policy."
"Whoa! Guys that's-" I started again, but it again didn't get me anywhere.
"Oh, no need, I'm quite sure the sick images will run through my mind, I just hope Kayla gets tested afterwards."
"Guys!" I shouted finally managed to interrupt them, they looked at me as if just realizing I was there. "Oh kay, so you two obviously have some issues towards each other, but how 'bout I help clear up the issue that's on the chopping block right now." I looked to Sean and said "Sean I am not, and will not be sleeping with Reid," I said and started to turn to him thinking tonight anyway. "And Reid, you and I have a conversation to finish so… Sean I'll see you tomorrow." I said closing the door on him.
"How'd you meet that Jackass?" Reid asked as soon as the door was closed.
"For one, Reid his is not a jack ass." Reid started to speak but I held my hand up for him to quiet down. "And, how I met him is none of your business." I defended.
Walking past him over to my desk "What's your first class?" He suddenly asked. "History." I answered not looking up at him from my papers I was putting away. "Hey, what a coincidence me too."
"Oh great, I have to put up with you then too." I mock whined. I turned around to find him right behind me. I could smell the scent of him, it was a woodsy almost cinnamon-y scent. Suddenly we were both leaning towards each other closer and closer. I couldn't explain it, it were as if I'd tunnel visioned and he was the only thing that mattered. Something was drawing me closer and closer to him. Everything was just right. His arms slid around me pulling me in as our breathing quickened it's pace, I could hear my heartbeat in my ears. My mouth was milimeters from his.
Next thing we knew the door opened. Reid and I jumped apart, and who came in? None other then Tyler. Perfect timing. I thought inwardly groaning in disappointment. "Sorry to barge in but, I knew Reid was in here 'cause I heard him yelling and to be fair, I did knock." Tyler said.
"What're you doing here?" Reid asked his voice husky, and his arms unmoving from around me.
"Apparently interrupting something." Tyler said smirking. Oh god. I thought feeling mortified, I'd just met him tonight, and already I was being caught in some pretty sugestive positions. I pulled away from Reid putting a good amount of distance between us. "I uh felt a little worried and came looking for you after you didn't make it back to the dorm. I wasn't sure if I'd be walking in on something that would scar me for life or not but I took the chance." He said jokingly but putting a serious note in the word 'felt'.
"I guess I'll see you tomorrow, now that my mom is dragging me to bed." Reid said making fun of Tyler. Who'd simply rolled his eyes dramatically.
I chuckled and said "Yeah, I'll see you in History tomorrow."
"Oh, you'lI be seeing me around a lot more than just that, Red." He replied clearly liking my copper-toned hair.
I chuckled with an eyeroll at the nickname as he walked out closing the door behind him suddenly felt as though a piece of me was missing. I could feel my chest tighten for a fraction of a second I tried just shaking off the feeling and got ready for bed.
Well, I'm taking it chapter by chapter. I'm taking out somethings, and others will be just a little tweak here and there. Thank you all so much for the views. I appreciate it. R&R.
