HAZEL'S POV
l could hear screams in the room next to mine. Of course it's not that someone is being abused or anything. They are screams of pleasure from sex.
This has been going on for the past thirty minutes, l can't even believe l have been keeping track of the time. Its so annoying, l can't even do anything. l have tried putting in my earphones but nothing seems to work. LF only mom and dad were at home, l wouldn't have to go through this kind of hell.
Finally the noise stops, seconds later the door is slammed close. l guess it was one of my brother's play tool. He is the kind of boy you wouldn't want to mess with. Though, he pisses me off with the noise when l am trying to relax, we get along very well. Two peas in a pod for sure. Chase Maddox Romano is my stepbrother. His mom died after giving birth to him and his dad married my mom two months later mainly because of his love for her and also because he wanted Chase to grow up with a motherly figure. l was born a year late, do everything kinda happened so fast. Chase isn't so worked up with his mother's death because he sees my mom as his birth mother.
Our parents are not at home most of the time considering that dad is the CEO of Romano Enterprises and hotels in over fifty five countries all over the world of which one day will be handed over to Chase. Mom is like his assistant who keeps him on track, which lives us with a rather boring and lonely life. Well l would only say that for myself. Chase is the other hand is not one to be considered as 'lonely.' What else can you expect from the bad boy and greatest player of Crescent Wood High School. There are many things l am grateful for though. Like l have never been bullied, no one dares to bully the sister of the one and only QB of our school. Anyone who does would better know what coming his way. If it wasn't for brother l wouldn't be popular. Not that l am the school's Queen B, that's not my swag.
So yeah my life is boring. l can say, Chase is a little over protective. l am not even allowed to bring any boys home, it's like l am gonna die a virgin. Thank God l am not even interested in boys, otherwise we would be fighting withy brother about that issue everyday.
Besides that, l have a best friend, Sloane. We have been best friends since childhood. She is rather outgoing while l am a little reserved. But l wouldn't call myself shy.
With the thought of Sloane, l decide to call her to make arrangements for the party tonight, which l didn't want to go to but she convinced me a lot.
It gets through on the first ring.
Sloane:Hey girlfriend
Me:hey girl
Sloane:I am guessing this call is about the party.
Me: Yeah, yeah the one
forced me to go to😅
Sloane:Oh really 😅 Ok so l am gonna come to your house and we can go shopping.
Me:Oook but we don't
have a car you know
l don't like driving.
Sloane: Oh yeah..... but we can ask your brother. l know he will agree to take us there.
Me: But you know Chase
he doesn't like going
shopping let alone with
girls.
Sloane: Hazel just convince him l know he will agree,it's hard for home to say no to you. l know he will agree.
Me:Ok, l will try.
Sloane: Ok l will be there in 15, bye.
Me:Bye.
l put down my phone. l take a deep breathe and make my way out of my room. I just hope he agrees.
l knock lightly on his door. He doesn't reply so l just get in.
As l walk to his bed l notice that he is asleep. Half naked with toned muscles, the other half is covered by the sheet. Who wouldn't be exhausted after sex like that.
"Chase,"l call him while tapping on his shoulder.
"Mmmm,"he turns around to face me.
"l just wanted a small favour from you please,"l try to use the best convincing tone ever.
"What?" he looks tired when he says this.
"Can you please drive Sloane and l to the mall, you know l hate driving," l tell him.
"Ahhh,Hazel. l can't do that. Going to the mall with girls isn't my thing,"he protests.
I try the puppy eyes which l know will certainly work in this situation,"puh-lease."
"Oh no, oh no, no. Please not the puppy eyes, no,"he covers his face with the pillow, that's when l know it's working, "Ok fine l will drive you, but on one condition only two hours to shop, no dragging me around for hours.
l do my happy dance before dashing out of his room and shouting,"Ok."
Right after coming out of Chase's room, l hear Sloane's signature knock. l quickly run downstairs and open the door for Sloane. Have you ever had the friend who just walks in without being invited, yeah that would be Sloane.
"So what did he say," she asks with curiosity after walking in. l know she is talking about Chase driving us to the mall.
"He said yes,"l reply.
She lets out a scream. She is definitely that girl. This crush she has on Chase is taking a toll on her.
"Let me go and change. Shoppng mall here we come!'' l shout as we make our way up stairs. This was going to be a big day.
