《Innocent Bet》Chapter 4

Summer's p.o.v
I run down the stairs to catch up to Eric.
"Hey bro!" I said jumping on his back. Eric caught me smoothly.
"Hey sis! What's going on?" He asked. I looked around the basement making sure Ryan was far enough to gossip about.
"Ryan."
"Ooo, you getting a boyfriend, or is this gonna end as soon as it starts?"
"It's probably gonna end..."
Eric dropped me on my butt in the room outside the Theater.
"Owwie!" I yelled. I crossed my arms and legs and look up at Eric. I glare at him. All the boys start laughing hysterically.
"I don't think Eric wants you Summer." Luke said.
"Shut up Luke!" Grant said laughing.
Eric bends down to my level and gives me a hug. I can feel him chuckle.
"I'm sorry Summer." He said laughing.
"It's okay."
Eric helped me up and I rubbed my left butt cheek. It hurts like h-e-double hockey sticks. Gage opened the door to the Theater for all of us. All the girls looking at us curiously as we walk in.
I watched Gage and Alyssa as they looked at each other, I know what's going on even though I don't really know but I do know. They have a thing, I think. I smirk, Gage cautiously walks over to her but then realized that Alyssa and Sarah were sharing a couch. I turn on the light as we start to scatter in so nobody trips over anything and can find there way.
"What the heck was all that ruckus out there?" Ally asked.
"Summer fell on her ass." Mason Said laughing.
"Eric dropped me!" I said. Everyone starts bursting into laughter, love that for me.
I walk, excuse me, limp to my spot. I hold my butt cheek again. I slowly sit next to Bella making sure I don't put too much pressure on my butt. I relax into the couch, supporting my back as much as I can. I forgot to grab the darn remote and turn off the lights. Ryan was standing closest to the remote and switch l.
"Ryan, would you be a sweetheart and grab me the remote please and turn off the lights please?" I asked. He gave me his charming smile, Eric looked back at me from his seat, probably wants to know why I'm not sure about this dude yet. He wants all the tea.
"Sure sweet cheeks." He smirks at me. I smiled but my smile quickly disappeared when I realized what he said. It's okay, he's cute. He chuckles at my reaction.
"Thanks." I said flatly.
Ryan turned the lights off then walked over to me and handed me the remote, he flashed me a smile then patted me on the head. I roll my eyes. He walked towards the back to sit with Luke. I started the movie.
•••
About halfway through clueless I start to fall asleep, I look over at Bella to see that she had already gotten to it. I shake her lightly to wake her up.
"Do you want to go to bed or stay here?" I whispered to her.
"I'll stay here." She said slightly picking up her head but then dropped it back onto the pillow.
I whispered an okay back and laid back down and dozed off.
__________
I wake up the next morning around 9:00am. It's Sunday. Ew. I sit up and stretch.
"Good morning Summer." Bella whispered. I gave her a smile in response.

"I'm gonna cook brekkie. Do you want to help?" I asked. She nodded.
I got up quietly. I felt a shooting pain through my left butt cheek, I scrunched up my face and grabbed my butt. Ouch! Bella giggles and I heard a low chuckle. I turn around and my eyes landed on Luke and Ryan.
Luke was sound asleep with his forehead exposed, Ive never seen his forehead before. Ryan smirks at me. I give him a sweet smile but then rolled my eyes when I turned back around. Bella and I tiptoe out of the Theater careful not to wake anyone up.
I bolt up the stairs, I say hello to my doggy and let him out leaving the door open since it's right by the kitchen. Bella grabbed stuff for breakfast. We had a selection. Different types of cereal, we are making eggs, bacon, sausage, breakfast gravy. I love it when my grandma makes breakfast gravy for me when I go visit her.
I was cooking some scrambled eggs while Bella was cooking the bacon. I felt arms snake around my waist. He rested his chin on my right shoulder. He smells, fresh with a hint of the smell of summer I guess? I can't really stick my face in his shirt and smell him so that's what I'm going with.
"Looks good babe, I also love a girl who can cook." Ryan Said. My stomach twisted. I feel my face heat up but I smile.
"Now THAT is what I'm talking about compared to your lousy breakfast yesterday." Luke said. I need to put a bell on this dude.
"It's basically the same thing!" I said.
"Yeah I know, it's just slightly better Sunny."
Luke walked off into the living room. Ryan leaned on the island behind me as Bella and I cooked.
"Smells like a sunshiny day!" Grant said
Make that two bells, maybe three for Ryan too. Ryan makes me uncomfortable.
__________
Bella and I got done cooking, not to brag but, the best breakfast ever! We set everything out on the island and left the gravy on the stove. Turned off of course, made that mistake once and it's never gonna happen again.
I walked down to the basement to check if anyone else was awake. Some people had just started to wake up and some were playing on their phones.
"Breakfast is ready." I immediately bolt back upstairs before it's all gone.
Everyone ran to the breakfast bar Bella and I had created and acted like they haven't ate in a month. I mean, I did too.
I took my seat next Ryan and Bella, across form Luke and Mason. Ryan was sitting next to Grant and Bella was sitting next to Sarah. Luke was sitting next to Gage and Mason was sitting next to Ally.
Everyone started eating and talking about whatever. Ryan places his hand on my knee. Um, what the h-e-double toothpicks? He worked his way up to my inner thigh, that caught me by surprise and I choked a little bit. I squirm around and try to adjust myself. Gage gave me a knowing smirk since he had been talking to Ryan. I give him a pleading look to help me but he just shook his head and turned away.
Ryan was massaging my inner thigh, I bit my lip to prevent letting out any noise. I had scarfed down my breakfast so I leaned back in the chair on my phone. I commented on people's conversations every now and then but my words wouldn't come out right because of Ryan.

"Are you excited for our first away game tomorrow, Summer?" Mason asked. Luke and Mason both looked at me.
"Uh, um, y-yeah." I choked out. I looked over at Ryan to see he was smirking at me.
"Are you okay Summer?"
"Y-eah, Mmason. I-im fine." I sounded like I had ran a marathon.
I try prying Ryan's hands off which took a while but I managed to do it. Ryan chuckled at me. I sent a glare his way. I don't like him.
"You Love me babe." He said jokingly. I rolled my eyes. No I don't. This dude is super touchy.
I look back over at Mason, his jaw dropped. Luke was looking at me with a blank expression.
"Summer..." Mason Said in disbelief. "Actually got to know a guy?" He exclaimed. Luke's blank expression turned into confusion.
I lunge towards Mason ready to attack. In my defense, I got to know many of my boy-space-friends. Ryan grabbed me and set me on his lap before I could do any harm. Im not even dating this dude! Eric gave me a smile seeing that I didn't go through with dumping Ryan...yet...I haven't even started dating him!
"I'm gonna go take a shower." I said patting Ryan's hand that was resting on my thigh. He let me go. I shudder, I feel gross.
I put away my dishes in the sink and bolt upstairs.
I look on my closet for clean comfortable clothes. I went with black nike sweatpants and a red crop top. I grabbed some new undergarments. I walked into my bathroom and threw my clothes onto the bench.
I looked at myself in the mirror. Ryan is definitely hot, but I don't know how I feel about him. Why would he even go for someone like me?
I had light brown eyes with flecks of gold. My hair stopped just below my shoulders, my hair was brown and had blond highlights not really an ombré. My hair has natural beach waves which went perfect with my slightly honey tan skin. Makes it look like I belong at the beach, which I love! I had pink lips which were often pale because I forget to put chapstick on. I had a button nose which Gage says is a very boopable nose.
I sigh and turn on he shower so the water can warm up, then I strip off my clothes. I throw my hair up into a bun since I already washed it yesterday.
I get into the shower, the hot water on my back felt nice. It was silent in my shower, it was relaxing, it made me want to sleep.
•••
I get out of the shower and dry myself off. I tip toe over to where my clothes are and put them on. I let my hair down.
I looked at my appearance in the mirror. I had a toned stomach, thin legs, my torso is short which makes me appear short. I'm 5'4...and 1/4, it counts.
I run downstairs to find that some people has left and that the remaining is in the living room.
I find Ryan and attempted to take a seat next to him but he pulled me onto his lap. He kind of makes me uncomfortable but I'll tolerate him till I can let him down easy and not embarrass him in front of everyone. I hope nobody notices the discomfort on my face.
We all catch up on some gossip until more people had to leave since it is a school night.
"Summer can I spend the night?" Bella asked.
"Yeah sure!" I said.
"Okay, I'll be back I'm gonna go grab stuff for tomorrow and take Eric home since Mason left and was supposed to give him a ride." I nodded.
Bella and Eric left and that left Me, Luke and Ryan. That's fun! A guy I hate and a guy I feel uncomfortable around.
"So, Summer. It's just me, you and Luke." Ryan said tracing circles on my leg. He came closer to my ear and whispered, "You want to go somewhere and make out."
I shudder in disgust which made Ryan smirk. Luke stares intently at us.
I get up off Ryan's lap and he follows, I push him back down onto the couch.
"Oh so we're go-..."
"No, we're not doing anything!" I crossed my arms. "Here's the thing Ryan. You're hot and all but you barely even know me."
"And?" He said placing his hands on my waist.
I yanked his hands off and he looked at me in disbelief.
"You're wayyy too touchy and it makes me uncomfortable!"
"What the hell do you mean?" His voice started raising. Luke was looking back and forth between us.
"I mean putting your hands on my inner thighs and making me sit on your lap! I don't like it!" I yelled. "I don't like it this soon in a relationship!"
"Other girls like it!" My eyes widened.
He wanted to get in my pants! This dude had the nerve. I should've know! I'm smarter than that!
"You really think I'm like other girls?" I asked.
"I mean, you're a cheerleader." Ryan said.
My jaw dropped. Is he kidding me right now!
"You know what! Go home and never come back! I don't want to here from you or see your face ever again! And don't ever talk about my girls like that! It's a stereotype you dumbass, we happen to be really smart and not dumb enough to sleep around!"
"Hey hey, whoa whoa whoa! If you kick Ryan out, that means you're kicking me out too!" Luke said.
"I don't even like you!" I said.
"Summer, you and I have known each other since seventh grade. What do you mean?"
"Just because we've known each other for so long doesn't mean I happened to like you for that long. You never even took the time to actually get to know me! We were just friends at school." I wasn't mad, he's just stupid. He placed his hands on my shoulders.
"Then let's get to know each other! I mean, it can't be bad." He said. I scoffed.
"Pfft, you move onto girls every week. You'll be bored of me by then."
"You know you're hot when you're mad." I let out and annoyed groan I'm so done with these boys!
Luke and I were so caught up in arguing that we didn't realize Ryan had left.
"Hey guys!" Bella said walking in making our heads snap towards the door.
"Oh shit! Ryan left me, that asshole!" Luke said.
"You can just stay here even though you really p'd me off!" I said.
"I only called you hot! Girls like that, plus my stuff is at Ryan's house!" I roll my eyes and walk over to Bella.
•••
I tell Bella about Ryan while Luke whines about his stuff at Ryan's house.
"And then I was like. I'm not like other girls and then he was like..." I was telling Bella but I was interrupted.
"Summer, can you pretty please take me to go get my stuff?" Luke whined for the billionth time.
"Why can't I just drop you off at his house?" I asked.
"Because, he texted me saying I have to find somewhere else to stay. You pissed him off."
"The streets are open. Also, I want the one who called a girl he was interested in hot!"
"Summer..." he groans. That's hot, oh shoot! I bit my lip and looked at him. I guess I can.
"Oh my gosh fine! I'll tell Bella the rest of the story on the way there."
"I call shotgun!" Luke screamed running out the door.
I rolled my eyes. We all get into my car. Luke tells me Ryan's address as I put it into my car GPS. I was telling Bella the rest of the story when Luke decided to rudely interrupt by screaming "La" at the top of his lungs. I glared at him.
"Luke, just because you don't want to listen does not mean you have to interrupt my conversation!" I said.
"Well it worked!" Luke said.
"Shut up! You're so annoying!"
"Oh I'm annoying? You're annoying!" I scoffed at his comment.
"When have I ever been annoying? I cook you food. I clean the room you're currently practically living in. I'm even driving you to get your stuff!"
"Being annoying doesn't have anything to do with doing stuff for me! You always get in the middle of my things."
"Oh really..."
"You guys fight like a married couple that can't seem to choose who loves each other more!" Bella said.
Luke and I froze and stopped arguing. Pfft. I don't think so. She's crazy.
"Bella, where have you been? We don't like each other, remember?" I said.
"Summer, I would disagree. It's you who doesn't like me. I happen to be perfectly fine with you." Luke said.
"You didn't even care for me until I was a nice acquaintance and let you stay over my house!"
"Yeah yeah, at least I'm trying to get to know you now, doesn't seem like you appreciate it." I rolled my eyes at him.
"See what I mean?" Bella exclaimed.
I thought about it for a while. Oh man. We do! We've been fighting about who's done more for the other the past few minutes.
"Bella..." I got cut off by my GPS telling me I have arrived at my destination.
I pull into the driveway. Luke took off his seatbelt and ran to the front door.
"So..." Bella said.
"Yeah I see what you mean." I rolled my eyes. Ew.
I connect my phone to the radio so we can jam out while we wait for Luke who happens to be taking his good old time! Yay, fun!
I bop to the music, singing my heart out. I see Luke wall out and immediately stops singing.
"Start driving before he sees you." Luke said. I obeyed. "You still haven't opened my snap from like three days ago."
"I don't care."
"You'll love it babe."
"Mhm. Now shut up, I don't want to listen to you anymore."
"Sing for me." I groan and roll my eyes.
"I said shut up!"
"Okay okay I will." He put his hands up in defense.
I speed home wanting to get to bed since it's a school night and I'm a goody-two-shoes.
•••
We arrived back at my place we scattered into our different rooms either to sleep or relax. I was relaxing then I decided I wanted something to eat, I had to take Duke out and fill his empty bowl anyways.
I tiptoed out of my room even though it was only 8:45. Just Incase Bella was sleeping. I turn around and I run into something causing me to fall.
"Oh shit." I heard Luke say as we started to loose balance.
He latched his arms around by waist to try to balance us but that just caused him to bring me down with him considering he's heavier.
"Watch where you're going butthead!" I whispered.
"Me? You didn't even look behind you when you turned around!" He said rubbing the back of his head. Yeah because I totally have eyes in the back of my head.
Luke situated us to where I can see his face and his hips up. I hit my head on Luke's chin as I fell.
"Is your chin okay?" I asked.
"It hurts a little but I'll be fine."
I looked down at our position. I was straddling Luke and Luke was in nothing but a towel. I squeal quietly and jump up off of him. I shudder. Ew, ew, ew. Luke was laughing at me.
"What? What is so funny?"
"Nothing babe."
He stretched his hands out for me to help him up, being the nice person I am I did. As I was helping him up his towel falls. I shut my eyes and slap my face with my hands.
"Oh my gosh put your towel back on now! Ew, ew, ew!"
Luke places his hands on my hands and he tried to pull my hands off of my face but I was too scared to look.
"Summer, you can look now."
I peak one eye open, then the other eye and look down slowly to see that he does in fact have his towel on. He also has a nice V and some nice abs. I like, I like!
"You done checking me out?" He asked.
"Hold on almost."
I reach out my hand to touch them. Wow, Luke just got hotter, stop it Summer!
"Like what you see babe?"
"Yes I do." oh darn.
Luke grabs my finger that was poking at his abs .
"I have to get dressed Sunny. I know you'd hate to see me with a shirt on." He winks as he drops my hand and walks away.
Man is he a hot but very cocky asshole. I walk down to the kitchen to get my food and take care of my child.
