《parties // billie eilish》Chapter 38: Caught
Advertisement
I press the button to the elevator several times, trying to get it here as fast as I can. I know that it doesn't matter how fast or how many times I press it, but it feels better. After thousands of years, the elevator finally arrives and I step in before pushing the ''seven'' button even faster than before. My hands are shaking, what if she won't believe me? I jump up and down, looking up in the ceiling of the elevator while feeling how my stomach is about to explode from feeling so anxious. Eventually, the elevator arrives at the seventh floor and I step out as fast as I can. I knock at the door, waiting and praying for her to open but it stays quiet. I knock again.
''Please, let me in!'' I yell between my hands that are pressed against the door. After a while, the door opens up and the sight makes my heart break. There stands Billie with red, puffy eyes and a mad expression on her face but I can see that she's full of sadness. I have to stop myself from hugging her because I need to tell her what went down.
''Billie'', I breath out.
''Just explain'', she says, her voice sounding strained.
''Okay, I promise and swear to god that I didn't make out with Travis. It's not me on the picture'', I explain and I hear myself how lame it sounds.
''And you want me to believe you? You don't even have proof'', she spits and I bit my lip, wondering how the fuck I should get out of this one.
''Just let me see the picture'', I say, pointing at her phone. She sighs before unlocking it and showing the picture. I can't lie, it looks a lot like me. Emily has a black dress on the picture and I can see that she has a mole on the back of her neck and it makes me realise that I in fact do have proof.

''There! Look, it's a mole on her back. I don't have a mole there!'' I say, zooming in on the picture. Billie furrows her eyebrows before grabbing my shirt at the back, pulling it down, almost choking me.
''Ems, I'm sorry'', she mumbles when she realises that my neck is free from a big mole, biting her lip. ''I shouldn't have said those things.''
''It's okay, I guess.''
''It's not'', she snaps back.
''It is, remember what I did?'' I say, trying to put the blame on myself. ''We're good.''
''We are?'' She asks, smiling a bit.
''Of course'', I say and she doesn'r wait before wrapping her arms around me. I inhale her scent, feeling thankful that she's here again. After pulling away, she grabs the base of my skull, placing her lips on mine. I've missed that feeling. Her hands moves down my body to my waist and I place mine on her cheeks as she lifts me up, pressing me against the counter. The kiss gets heated and I want her more than anything right now. My hands roam all over her body as our kisses get more and more sloppy. Right when she's about to take my shirt off, the front door opens, making me and Billie jump away from each other. When I look at the doorway, Finneas stands there with his mouth opened.
''I'm sorry'', he says, walking into his room, closing the door.
''Fuck'', I mumble from embarrassment and Billie starts to laugh, burying her face in my neck.
''Oh my god'', she manage to say between the laughing and that makes me laugh as well.
''Did you see his face?'' I ask and she nods before laughing even more.
''Are you guys done? I want to eat!'' A voice shouts from the room that Finneas disappeared into.

''Yes, we're done'', Billie shouts, still laughing as much as before. Finneas walks out from the room, grinning before opening the fridge.
''So'', he starts. ''I didn't know that you guys were together, but it doesn't surprise me at all.''
Me and Billie look at him confused. He laughs when he sees the look on our faces.
''I think that anyone could see how you guys look at each other'', he explains, grabbing a water bottle from the fridge and opening it. Billie rips it from his hands, taking a sip before handing it back to him and whiping her mouth. I still sit on the counter and Billie rests her arm on my thighs while looking at her phone.
''So, you're okay with it?'' Billie asks Finneas and I look at him while biting my lip to see his reaction.
''Of course I am, y'all are happy together and that's what matters'', he smiles and Billie hugs him in appreciation. They are so cute. Their relation reminds me a bit of mine and Evan's and it actaully makes me a bit happy to think about.
I lay down in Billie's bed and deal Julia's number to tell her about everything.
''Hey, Julia'', I say when she answers.
''How did it go?'' She asks immediately.
''We're good now. I proved to her that it wasn't me on the picture. Emily has a mole on her neck and I don't'', I explain, smiling at Billie.
''Thank god, I'm happy for you'', she says, making me smile.
''Thank's, Julia. I think that I'll spend the night here, but we can hang out tomorrow?'' I suggest.
''Sure, I love you!''
''Love you too'', I say before hanging up.
It feels good to always have Julia by my side. As I've said before, I'm so proud of her for changing to the better. She hasn't done anything stupid in a while and I don't know if it is because of her realationship with Kevin or me. Maybe both? Anyways, I'm thankful for my friends and I really hope that Travis will find love with Emily because they were pretty cute together. Unfortunately, that girl will probably always remind me of the fight with Billie, but I guess that it can change. Billie interrupts my thinking by laying down by my side. She wraps her arms around me and hugs me way too tight.
''Ouch, Billie take it easy!'' I laugh but she just hugs me even tighter.
''Nope'', she says with an evil laugh.
''You are weird'', I sigh.
''You still love me, though'', she says, pulling away to look at me.
''I don't'', I smirk, making her hit my arm. ''I want to sleep.''
I bury my face in her neck, feeling calm by how close she is to me. This is what I mean and I know how corny and cheesy it sounds, but something about her energy just makes me so calm.
''Only if you admit that you love me.''
''Fine. I love you'', I say with a sigh, making her peck my lips.
''Good night, weirdo'', I say.
''Good night, dumbass.''
We're such a loving couple.
