《Innocent Bet》Chapter 3

Summer's p.o.v
I wake up around nine a.m. Duke wagging his tail at me and licking my face. I get up out of bed and stretch and grab a crop top to put on. Duke running out the door to go find one of his toys.
I walk over to Luke's room to check if he's awake. I creep the door open, Luke is still asleep. He's on his stomach, his arms supporting his head under his pillow. He's obviously shirtless.
I shut the door quickly but quietly. I walk down the hall and down the left stairs. My feet hit the cold wood floor when I get to the end of the stairs and I shiver. Fun fact I shiver a lot, sometimes for no reason. I just get the 'chills' often. So I shiver about three more times after the first.
I walk into the kitchen and over to the fridge. I get stuff out to make breakfast. Fun fact, I'm afraid of turning on the stove because of the way the fire ignites. I stand far away from the stove and quickly but carefully turn on the stove. I immediately put it to low.
I beat up the eggs and sprinkle some cheese in it and add some milk. I pour it onto the pan. I get out some cups and orange juice, I pour the juice into the cup. I go back to the pan and cook the eggs. I've taught myself how to cook since my dad died. I'm always home alone and I don't always feel like driving.
"Oh! Scrambled eggs! My favorite!" Luke said, surprising me. "My dad used to make it for me the morning after a game."
"Mhm" I said
"Also, I found a friends house to stay at, I'll be leaving pretty soon. So I'm off your hands now." He said.
I feel so relieved! "Okay!" I said a little too cheery, Luke doesn't seem to notice though.
Luke goes back upstairs to pack his stuff and hopefully clean the room. I asked Alexa to play me some jams by Justin Bieber.
I sing out my heart as I put the eggs on plates and sprinkle more cheese on it and add some bacon bits. I put some bread in the toaster and get out the jelly for the toast.
Last day with Luke! With a great breakfast! I dance and slide around the kitchen. I jumped when the toaster went off. I spread the jelly on each piece of toast nicely then set everything on the table.
Luke comes downstairs with his basketball bag. I stopped the music. He's wearing black sweatpants and a white shirt. His hair is slightly a mess, I mean, it always is.
"Okay Ryan is on his way!" Luke said.
"Why couldn't you stay with any of your friends last night?" I asked.
"Because they have lives unlike you." I send him a glare as he takes a seat. I rest my hand next to him on the table and rest my hand on my hip. "Okay, kidding!" He put his hands up in defense. "They were at a party that my ex girlfriend threw and I obviously didn't want to go."
"That's right!" I crossed my arms and scoffed. "You cheated on her with a fake bench." I said.
"Bench?"
"I love Jesus Christ my Lord and Savior too much." Luke nods his head but chuckles at me.

"No comment, we end this conversation here." He said.
I walk over to the other side of the table and pull my phone out of my waistband and scroll through my unread texts. A lot from Alyssa saying I should've went to Ria's party and a few from Bella thanking me for giving her rides and a few pictures of her Christmas cookies she was making.
"Ryan's here!" Luke said.
I got up with him to greet Ryan. I remember him from last night, I mean who could forget a pretty face like his? I felt butterflies in my stomach looking at this dude. My heart started beating fast. Holy crap was he hot! I look down at what I was wearing. My torso was showing, I had baggy pants on, my eyes are probably still swollen. Great!
"Hey Luke!" Ryan said.
"Hey Ryan, this is Summer." Luke said looking back at me.
I snap my head up my eyes wide. I then quickly smiled at Prince Charming. He stuck his left hand out for me to shake and stupid me it took me a while to realize then I stuck my left hand out but quickly realized that's not how handshakes work. I can hear Luke chuckle at me as I finally accomplish the handshake. I look up at Prince Charming's face and smile. He winked and my heart flutters.
"You're smile is very pretty Summer." Ryan said.
"Th-th-aankss, you're face- I mean you- I mean it's nice to meet you!" I stuttered.
I can see Luke out of the corner of my eye trying to hold back a laugh. I let go of Ryan's hand after I realized I've been shaking it for a century.
"Can I habe your number?" Ryan asked.
"Um...Yeah it's 123-456-999" I gave him my number as he pushed around on his phone.
"Alrighty then, Ryan got what he wanted, Summer got what she wanted, Luke got what he wanted so let's go!" Luke said pushing Ryan away as I attempt to wave flirtatiously.
I run up to my room to immediately tell Sarah and Bella about this cute guy named Ryan.
I FaceTime Bella and she picks up right away.
"Hi Summer! What's going on?"
"Oh my gosh Bella! I just met this dude! His name is Ryan and he has brown fluffy hair, dark brown eyes, his cheeks are nice and rosy, his teeth are white and are also absolutely perfect! I swear when he smiled at me, his teeth shined! He's got nice arms too! He's just so cute!" I fit in all the details I could.
"Okay Summer! Are you getting anywhere with this dude because if not, I don't care."
"He asked for my number!"
"Wow! That's the farthest you've been in any of your relationships! I thought it was gonna end last night since he caught you last night." She teased.
"Hey! In my defense, I've never been in one." Bella chuckled at me.
"You were almost in one." Bellas said, I roll my eyes at her comment.
I talked with Bella on the phone and we both decided that I'm gonna invite everyone over to my place to watch a movie. I hung up the call to hop in the shower. I grab comfy clothes to wear once I get out.
I turn on my speaker and connect my phone. I hop in the shower and sing my heart out. Changing to temperature of the water often because I'm a picky person.

~~~~~~~~~~
I just got done rinsing the vanilla scent soap off of my body, it's the last thing I do since I want the smell to last. I about jumped out of my skin when I got a call from someone.
I hurry up and dry off and carefully step out of the shower. I tiptoe over to my phone and make sure my hands are dry. It was a number I didn't know.
I clear my throat and pick up the phone. "Um, Hello?" I Said in a manly voice.
"Hey, it's Luke." Ugh.
"Oh my gosh what!" I said annoyed.
"You having a get together at your house?"
"Yeah?" I dragged out my answer.
"Can we come?"
"Who is we?"
"Ryan and I!" Ugh but I don't want Luke there...ugh but I want to see the Prince Charming.
"Ryan can come, you can't." I said.
"Hey! Ryan is taking care of me."
"He can leave you on the side of the road."
"I'm still coming! Bye!" Luke hung up before I could say anything. So that's what happens when you put up a fight with him? Mister 'I Get My Own Way Because I'm Hot'. I roll my eyes at my own thought.
I save his number in my phone, I set his name as 'Luke😈'.
I set my phone down and completely dry off. I put on black VS underwear, black adidas pants, I slip on a sports bra, then an oversized sweatshirt. I slip on some fuzzy socks so I can slide around the house.
I run down the hall towards my dog. I stop a little bit before I get to my dog and slide towards him. I sit on the ground and pet my dog. He's such a cutie pie.
~~~~~~~~~~
I wake up to my doorbell continuously ringing. I sit up on the couch. I wipe drool and chocolate off my face. How long have I been asleep for? I look at my phone 1:30pm. Oh man! I slept half my day away! I brush off the chocolate wrappers and get up to stretch. I go answer the door. It's Sarah and Alyssa!
I hurry up and let the girlies in as Duke jumps around excited.
"Hey girlies! I have to let Duke out so I'll be back soon!" I said walking towards the back of the house with Duke.
I open the sliding glass door to the part of yard that was screened in for Duke. I leave the door open for when he's done and walk back over to catch up with my girlies.
"Y'all, this dude, Ryan! He caught me last night at the game, long story, I officially met him this morning! Ugh he is sooo cute!" I said.
"Oh she met the dude! That's a relationship long gone now." Sarah jokes.
"Hey! He's coming over soon!" I said. "I'm gonna go check on Duke you guys go downstairs and set up in the Theater."
I walk towards the back of the house to grab Duke. He came inside and I shut the door. Duke and I walk downstairs following the girlies. I walk into the kitchen downstairs and grab snacks and drinks for myself, I walk over to one of the many closets we have and grab a blanket. I then walk into the movie room and the girls and I discuss on what we want to watch.
I get a text from Bella that her and Ally are here. I tell them where we are and the code. A few moments later Bella and Ally finally make it downstairs, I thought they never would! I got lost the first time we came to look at this house when we decided to move.
"Hey girlies! Did you hear Summer is having a long lasting relationship?" Ally said.
"Hey girlies did you hear that this girl named Allison Demarco is a real foot up my butt?" I said sarcastically. Ally glares at me. "I'm just kidding chica, come sit!" I said patting on the floor next to me.
"I kind of want to watch a rom-com, but do the boys want to?" Alyssa said.
"Hey we had to watch whatever the frick they wanted to watch last week so I say we get to pick this time!" Sarah said.
"Agreed." We all said.
I fall back into the floor. My back was hurting. I'm also trying to rest now, before I fall asleep during the movie. Then i got an idea!
"Clueless!" I yelled sprinting back up. I get a lot of 'yess' and 'omgeee'.
I spring up onto my feet and grab the remote. The girls picked who they wanted to sit with and where they were gonna sit. I put clueless onto the screen.
I walked upstairs to go greet anymore guest. I was halfway up the basement stairs when someone rang the doorbell. I ran up the steps using my hands to 'help' the process. I slid into the entry way, I'm glad I chose these socks. I go to answer the door and it was all the boys.
"Where were y'all?" I asked.
"We were at the Cereal Hut." Luke said as he bent down and threw me over his shoulder. The heck is he doing? "Um, Luke?" I kick around and punch around a little bit, nothing.
"Yes Summer?" I don't want to fight with him.
"Poor Sam, he's only around when you guys have basketball." I said.
"Duh, he's just a friend from basketball." Mason said walking behind Luke.
"And you guys wonder why you don't have many friends?" Luke turned a corner, I saw Ryan as we were turning. I panicked and kicked and punched. "Luke put me down!"
"You weren't complaining at first!" He said
"That's because you're hard to put up a fight with."
"Yeah I guess." He said putting me down.
I fix my hoodie and walk over to Ryan.
"Uh, um, Hel-Hi!" I managed to spit out
"Hi, nice place!" Ryan said.
"Haha thanks, umm..."
"Um..."
"Do you wanna?"
"Let's Go."
"Oh sorry." We both said when we realized we cut off each other sentences.
"Uh Let's go downstairs." I said.
We followed the other boys downstairs. That was...awkward.

This whole story is turning out to be a flop. 😑
