Hi loves! Back again! Here's another one for you all today! I hope you all enjoy this one-shot!
Enjoy!
AMrocks21: Honestly, I'm glad. That's what I was going for. And, I can't promise no death or possible death. You'll just have to wait and see! Muahahahaha! I'm so evil! :)
Also, this one goes out to Libba The Amazing! Thanks for the idea love! :)
Stevie turns her car onto the correct street leading up to her house. She turns again and pulls into the driveway and turns the key in the ignition, shutting off the car. She unbuckles herself, and sits back, looking over at the teenage boy lying down, passed out in the seat behind her. She sighs and opens her door, climbing out and going to the back of the car, shutting her door behind her. She opens the back door of the car, and pulls the teenager, Zander, out of the car by his arms. She somehow manages to get him out of the car without dropping him on the ground and then closes the door behind them. She takes a deep breath in and pulls Zander up, starting for her house.
"Come on Z," Stevie says, trying to support the weight of Zander's body on her own, as she helps him up to her house, "we're almost there." Zander doesn't say anything, but instead just drags along the cement sidewalk leading up to Stevie's house. Once they reach the front porch, Stevie lays Zander down on the porch swing that they'd spent many of their summer days on, and goes to the door. She digs in her pants pocket to locate her house key, pulls it out, inserts it into the lock, and opens the door.
Leaving the door open, she goes back to the swing, and picks up Zander once again, manages to get him inside, shuts the door behind them, and locks it. Gathering together all of the strength she finds within herself, she drags him through the living room and up the stairs to her bedroom. When they reach her room, she practically throws him down on her bed, before collapsing on it herself, breathing heavily. She turns her head to see Zander passed out; eyes closed, mouth open. She laughs to herself and then sits up and reaches into Zander's pants pocket, pulling out his cell phone. She unlocks it, remembering the very corny password Zander had told her a while back, and scrolls through his contact list until she finds the contact that she needs. MOTHER DEAREST. She smiles at how cheesy Zander is, and then selects the name followed by New Message. She thinks for a moment of what to say and then begins typing on the keys.
This is Stevie! You're son is going to crash at my place tonight.
Stevie hits send and waits silently for a reply. A moment later, the phone buzzes. She picks it up and reads the new message.
Okay. Thanks sweetheart. Have fun and don't stay up too late.
Stevie smiles at how sweet Zander's mom is.
Alright. Goodnight :)
She hits send and waits again.
Goodnight.
Stevie reads the last message and then deletes all of the messages so they don't clog up his inbox and sets the phone down on her bedside table.
Lying back down on her bed, she moves herself so that she is right next to Zander. Her eyes begin to close when she hears mumbling from beside her. She opens her eyes reluctantly and turns to see Zander's eyes shut tight, and his mouth moving, as if he is talking.
"Z?" she whispers, not sure whether to wake him up or let him sleep. He doesn't answer, so she shifts closer to him. He's not making much sense, mostly because he's so quiet. So she leans in to him, hoping to understand.
"Mmm…no. I can't." She hears him say. He must be dreaming. "She can't know. It would ruin our friendship forever." Stevie gets curious. So she decides to interfere.
Slowly and carefully, she puts her lips next to his ear and whispers, "Remind me again who you can't tell."
He moves slightly and groans, "I've already told. It's Stevie. I can't tell Stevie." She freezes.
"A-a-and what is it you can't tell St-Stevie?" She stutters, not sure if she really wants to know what he supposedly can't tell her.
"I can't tell her how I feel about her. Because I know she doesn't feel the same way. It'll just complicate things." Stevie freezes up again. Does he really mean that? Or is it just the spiked eggnog talking?
Stevie collects herself and leans down again, "You're absolutely right Zander, just keep it to yourself. You don't want to ruin your friendship." Zander moves his head, most likely nodding his head in his dream, and then he relaxes again going back to mumbling random nonsense.
Stevie lets out a breath she didn't know she had been holding and sits up straight on her bed. She glances back at Zander's almost lifeless body, except for the noticeable rise and fall of his chest, and smiles, shaking her head. She thinks for a moment as she lays back down, snuggling close to Zander despite what just happened. Yeah, probably just the eggnog.
Well? You like? I hope so! Let me know in a review what you thought!
