Better late than never right? Mouhahahahaha

Sorry about that [hungs head in shame]

Okay so sorry about the not uploading yesterday, I got sidetracked a lot and I really wasn't getting into the "writing zone" blame it on the dumbass sitting on my bed and rambling about everything and anything, which I couldn't kick out because he would have taken it badly -_-

Sensitive ASS!

And tonight I had another friend over, we watch some pretty grossed videos of people getting worms removed out of their throat by their nose while eating sour gummy bears and pop corn! Mouhahahahaha! Fun night, fun night!

And technology seemed to despised me more than usual, MSN down, Word almost down at one point, Internet lagging and closing in my face, I'm telling you I'm about to throw my freaking lap top out my window! -_-

Two stories fall! In your face!

SO! New chapter, not the longest though... I'm sorry but I was getting tired so I had to stop it there...

Oh and I'm sorry, I'm going to be busy next week too... I have like... 4 exams I think... and I'm starting a new dissertation -_- Freaking JOY! Btw I got 65% on the last one, I'm blaming it on my teacher incompetency and the fact that she forgot to mention what she REALLY wanted in it, the reason why I "screwed up" my conclusion... and the fact that I didn't want to read it again to check for mistakes because it was too awful! LOL

Whatever, at least I passed!

SO! Enjoy this! Mouhahahahaha Oh and I didn't read it again, cause I'm tired but I'll try to double check later..

Anyway, read, enjoy, vote and comment!! :DDD

The next morning, even though I still felt incredibly tired, the worried feeling was gone. I even felt foolish for thinking that... I mean seriously why the hell would something be wrong? Okay not everything was perfect, actually nothing was ever perfect and it was perfect that way, but something didn't need to be wrong.

I had dad sign my sheet for the school trip and then drove off to school with Ty, caffeine being the only thing in my system because I was still not freaking hungry, which really didn't help on the whole being jumpy and hyper...

When I was at my locker and picking up my books, I saw Blake speaking with Mark and Dwayne. And then he saw me looking at him and smirked and I could just tell he was trying really hard not to laugh, probably recalling last night event and I narrowed my eyes at him, and he just seemed to chuckle and then he wiggled his eyebrows at me.

I stuck out my tongue at him from a distance.

"Told you not to do that! There will be consequences" Blake screamed back at me, laughing.

"Bring it on!" I yelled back, making people who were walking in the hall turning their head and slowing their pace.

"Is that an invitation?" Blake smirked widely.

I narrowed my eyes again.

Annoying prick...

Now I would never hear the end of this, I just knew it!

I closed my locker and started to walk towards him, to beat him up or something. Blake stepped aside, smirking like there was no tomorrow, chuckling, obviously enjoying this much more than he should.

I would destroy him, I had no idea how, but I would!

Stinking idiot!

But before I could reach him, the bell rang.

"Saved by the bell!" Blake laughed, and picked up his bag that was on the floor in order to get to his class, which wasn't with me.

"You better watch out, you're in trouble Eaton, big BIG trouble!" I warned him, backing away, trying to not get pushed by the people hurrying to get to their classes, standing against the "current".

"I'll be waiting Pumpkin!" Blake smiled a little, still laughing, and then turned around and walked away, Mark and Dwayne by his side.

And I just stood there, looking at his back.

He had one HOT back...

Alright snap out of it Lexi!

I forced myself to turn around and then made my way reluctantly to Mrs. Muffin's class.

I took the seat beside Alex, looking around for Luke to see what his face was going to be like today.

He actually looked kinda guilty when he looked at me, sort of...

Haha!

But I really didn't mind. He could think whatever he wanted. If he had trusted Stacey's words, that was his problem, and if he felt bad right now, it was his problem too! I wasn't going to try to make him feel better.

It almost surprised me as much as I didn't mind about what he was thinking, especially compared to how much I minded about Blake thought, and about much less important things...

I should really cool down about the whole Blake issue too... I mean, yes he trusted me enough to tell me about his brother... sort of... I mean he probably wouldn't have if I hadn't seen the stone, but whatever...

But I mean, yes he trusted me, and obviously, saw me as a friend, but apart from that, I really should have any illusions. Blake didn't LIKE me, like me, he enjoyed teasing me, and making fun of me, but there wasn't anything... more? I had to remind myself that. Blake couldn't see me as dating material; I mean did he even see anyone as dating material? Had he ever even dated someone? Slept around yes, but long term relationship? I didn't even know.

I knew about his brother, but I still knew so little about Blake. It was almost stupid to imagine that Blake would care about someone as clueless and unobservant as me, when he probably never really LIKED anyone...

He could pick anyone. Every girl would probably throw themselves at him, so why in hell would he pick me?

There was absolutely no way he would, so I had to just snap out of this daydreaming and drooling crap and freaking MOVE ON! He was my friend, and that was IT!!

I nodded a little, trying to convince myself that this was what I was thinking, but then raised my head to the board and saw Mrs. Muffin, writing faster on it than a hyper kid who found the candy stash, on crack, and then hurried to catch up with her.

When we were finally done, my wrist hurt.

"So we're practicing the play over at your place tonight Kitty?" Alex asked

"That's the plan" I nodded.

"Alright... and tomorrow, did you have anything planned in the evening?"

"No actually, you know, dad and Ty are leaving to go to a basketball game, so I'm all alone"

"Ya I know, your dad told my dad, I just figured you might have had plans with your new friend" he half smiled mischievously.

"What's that supposed to mean!?" I frowned

"Oh please, don't act stupid!" Alex laughed and got up, picking up his books and throwing them in his bag.

"Shut up!" I grumbled and gathered my things too, getting up to wait by the door, for the bell to ring "Just get to the point; what do you want to do?"

"Well... I wanted Daph and you to come over..." Alex trailed, looking around him a little.

Aww! The official meeting of the boyfriend!

"Tomorrow's good with me" I smiled and then the bell rang and we make our way out together, Alex smiling too.

The day was long. It seemed to drag on forever and it was cloudy so it seemed to make me sleepy, something I didn't need since I already was.

And every time I saw Blake, he was laughing more than necessary, trying to hide it, but falling miserably.

I decided to glare for a good part of the day, trying to think of a way to get back at him. I mean just because the guy was hot didn't mean I wasn't going to have my revenge!

But I settled on waiting a little, because for one thing, I had no idea what to do, and also because I would have the element of surprise!

At the end of the day, we all got into our car, Alex, Daphnee, Blake and I and drove to my place, while Tyler stayed at school for practice.

After we were all parked in I walked towards my door, keys in my hand, Blake running up to me.

"So are you still mad, or you cooled down?" Blake asked, smiling a little, but not an arrogant smirk or anything, the cute smile, with the dimples.

Cheater!

"Oh I'm pissed, majorly pissed" I told him, but my voice didn't sound mad, not one bit.

"You can scream me insults if it makes you feel better" Blake laughed and then I opened the door and walked in, Daph and Alex right behind us.

I turned around and faced him and stated "You're an idiot Blake"

"Come on, you can do better than that, idiot is practically my pet name with you" he smirked and then got his script out of his bag.

"You two are always bickering!" Alex laughed, closing the door behind him and then my eyes sorta bulged because I could see Daph expression and I just KNEW she wanted to make a remark like "Just go have sex to get all that tension out" and if she did I would literally punch her in the face, as much as I loved her, I really would.

But she just smirked at me, obviously knowing I knew what she was thinking but restraining herself...

That got to be a first.

I turned around, bag still on my shoulder and walked to the living room the three following me.

"So! Let's get this over with!" Daph said, and let herself fall in MY recliner.

I narrowed my eyes at her and settle on the coach, resting my shoulder on the armrest, sitting cross-legged, the script now in my hands.

Alex was fast enough to get on the other recliner, so Blake plopped at the other end of the couch with me.

"Alright, you can go on and threaten everyone now mister party pooper" Blake said looking at Alex and then turning the pages of his script open.

Alex laughed "What?"

I was about to open my mouth and explain, but Blake stopped me "I got this one Pumpkin" he smirked "Don't take it the wrong way Alex, you're a good guy, I just despise Don Carlos"

"And why is that?" Alex laughed more, turning his pages too.

"Cause he's a smart ass!" Blake snorted.

Alex was still chuckling "And you don't consider yourself a smart ass?"

"No but I do consider myself as a smart guy with a nice ass" Blake smirked.

"Wow Blake, obsessing about your ass too?" I grinned at him.

"I obsess about yours too, if that can make you happy" Blake smirked at me.

I didn't restrain myself from slapping him with my script.

"Get a room" Daphnee interfered and I glared at her "Ooops sorry wrong script... or play, whatever" she said waving the matter away with her hand, but still at a huge grin plastered on her face "Is it him? So soon?" she read this time, from the script and then kept on going.

I followed her line, which were in my script too, but then Blake grabbed one of the cushions that had been knocked on the ground, as usual and put it on my lap before resting his head on it.

Woah woah woah!!

"Why yes Blake of course, by all means, do lay on my lap" I told him, raising my arms on my sides, freaking out a bit holding my script high.

What the hell?

"Well thanks Pumpkin, you, out of all people just knows I'm pretty tired!" Blake smirked and then closed his eyes, like he was actually getting ready to sleep.

I sighed heavily, trying to ignored the stares I just KNEW I was getting right now since Daph had sort of stopped reading, and Alex wasn't picking up on his part either.

"You know, you guys can keep on reading your text, me and Lexi here we'll just wait for our turn" Blake said, eyes still closed.

I rolled my eyes at him even though he couldn't see it.

Seriously what the hell was he doing?

I hit his face with my script and Blake grabbed it and pulled it out of my hands.

"Play nicely and I'll give it back" he said, still not opening his eyes and raised his back a little, slipping the script under him.

"You're getting annoying Blake" I sighed, Alex now reading his lines.

I had to give it to him, ignoring us must have been hard right now...

"Tiredness tends to do that to me, let me sleep for a sec and I'll magically become fun to hang around"

I sighed again, but gave up on the arguing.

I mean it's not like I really minded...

Though, now that I didn't have a script, my eyes just kept wandering back to Blake face.

Why did he have to be so good looking? I mean if he'd been ugly it would have been so much easier to stay mad at him, or to tell him off... god I was so pathetic! Getting all weak because the guy was hot!

But I mean, it was kinda hard to say otherwise, especially since I was kinda staring at his face right now... Even though his eyes were closed and I couldn't see their greyness that sometimes turned into blue, I still had a whole lot to analyze. Straight nose, not too big, face pretty symmetrical, nice lips just the right amount of fullness for a guy, a shadow of a crease on his chin, the beginning of stubble around his mouth and chin, the dark rings under his eyes, his scar under the right one that I could faintly see again and that for some reason my fingers brushed faintly without my command.

I freaked for a second when I realized what I was doing but then Blake didn't even twitch, like he hadn't even been aware of it, almost like he was actually sleeping, so I breathed in and out slowly and calmed down.

"In here" Daph was reading beside us.

"This coffin?" Alex answered.

"Like it or lump it" Daph said and burst laughing.

I stopped listening to them again, and went on with my study of Blake which, I had to admit was much more interesting.

This time I looked at his light brown hair which tend more towards the dark blond than the deep brown, and again, without my command pushed a strand off his forehead.

"Do I need a haircut?" Blake asked, eyes still closed, taking me by surprise.

"No your hair is fine" I answered back.

Blake chuckled slightly and then opened his eyes and lifted his back a little, taking my script back, placing it up against his stomach and then pointed my lines when Daph had read hers.

It was our turn to come in scene.

"Oh I fear some mishap. Hernani should be here. That must be him. Let him in before he knocks" I read

"Dona Sol! Ah, finally, it's you..." Blake went on and we kept reading the script.

I was proud with Blake for keeping himself in check and not saying innuendos every two seconds.

But I did realized that Daphnee and Alex were looking at us weirdly which made me self conscious.

Where we doing something wrong?

Okay the whole having his head on my lap deal might have been weird but I mean this was Daphnee and Alex! They KNEW weird!

And I might have kept paying with his hair a little but in my defense I really wasn't aware of the movement, and he had nice hair!

"What is he saying" Blake read

"Let him in, I tell you!" Alex answered and Blake frowned, making me half smiled.

His hate for Don Carlos was just stubborn of him!

"This is surly the end" I finished and Blake dropped the script and then swung himself back up, sitting beside me.

It was weird losing the warmth so fast like that.

"Well I think we'll be alright" Blake said and then yawned and stretched his arm, after rubbing his finger over his eyebrows.

"Ya, if you restrain yourself from killing me in front of the class!" Alex laughed and got up.

We all followed his lead and putting our scripts back in our bags.

But then Blake's phone rang, and he took it out of his pocket and frowned at it.

"Gotta take this..." he mumbled and walked out of the room and made his way in the hall towards our dinning room.

"Well... not that I don't love your company but I'm needed elsewhere" Alex smiled a little.

"You naughty boy!" Daph laughed

"So you guys will come for supper at my place tomorrow right?" Alex asked again, making sure as I followed him towards the door, Daph by my side.

"Of course" we answered at the same time, and then stared at each other and burst laughing.

"Alright! See you guys tomorrow" Alex waved and got out.

"Soooo!" Daph trailed, staring straight at me.

"So?"

She smirked "That card doesn't work with me"

"What card?" I asked, walking to the kitchen, with her on my heels.

"The "I'm pretending nothing is happening" card"

"PARENTAL AUTORITY IS BACK!!" a voice yelled at the door, and I smiled, poking my head out of the kitchen, at dad.

Tyler was with him, he had probably picked him up from practice.

"Hey dad"

"Hey kid!"

"We'll talk about this later" Daph said, pointing her finger at me, and I was worried for a second.

"I see we've got company" dad said, making his way towards the fridge.

"Oh I'm leaving now! I have plenty of completely useless things to do at home" she laughed and picked up her bag.

"Bye bye" she waved and then left us there.

"Blake's car is still in the driveway" Tyler said before drinking from the milk can.

"Ya, he's in the dinning room, speaking on the phone" I frowned.

"How is he doing?" dad asked, taking food for our dinner on the counter.

"Good" I smiled a little.

Well at least he looked as so.

"Well speaking of the devil!" dad said, looking towards the arch, and I turned to see Blake, walking towards us, frowning to himself.

"Bad news?" I asked, curious.

"Oh that was nothing, I'm just trying to do the test I skipped so I can get out of trouble with the coach" Blake shrugged. "Well I should get going..." he trailed and then waved and walked away.

"Why didn't you offer him to stay for dinner?" dad asked me.

My father's liking for Blake was really weird!

"Give me a sec!" I said and rushed to the door.

Blake was about to open the door "Hey! You want to stay?" I asked in a rush.

He stopped and turned around "Not tonight babe, I have a headache" Blake smirked.

I rolled my eyes "I mean for dinner!"

Dumbass.

"Ya right!" he laughed, and I narrowed my eyes "I would have loved to, but Anita will be very put out if I don't eat her dinner for me tonight"

I was a little disappointed.

"Tell her I say hi"

"Will do" Blake smiled "Don't make that face Pumpkin, you'll see me tomorrow" he laughed this time.

I rolled my eyes again "Don't flatter yourself"

"Don't need to, you do it all for me" he smirked widely "Don't worry I'll miss you too!" he laughed and then opened the door.

"Bye Pumpkin"

"Bye Blake..."

And then he closed the door behind him and I just stood there like an idiot.

After a few second, I literally smacked my palm on my forehead.

"So much for the no drooling an no daydreaming" I mumbled to myself and walked back to the kitchen.
