Chapter Seven
Mason
'Who am I? Where am I??' I was lost after seeing Lawrence. No way in hell she was Miranda's best friend.
"Mason are you alright??" Those big brown eyes were looking at me, confused!!
"Yes. Everything is totally fine!!" I said nervously rubbing my sweaty hands on the side of my jeans.
"If you say like that it means your not!! I'm fine definitely suggests you're not fine!!" Where the hell did she find that explanation from?? Come on smarty-pants you should show that brain around your surroundings, not to me.
"Anyways, this is Lawrence, my best friend and Lawrence this is Mason my Bodyguard!!" Miranda smiled so sweetly while introducing us that my heart melt!!
"Mason Asher??" Lawrence was smiling mischievously. I would kill her if she blowed my cover. I glared at her saying not to spill my beans. But at her comment Miranda looked at me so I had to regain my composure. But it was getting on my nerves.
Lawrence stuck her tongue out to annoy me and to warn me that she could spill my beans any moment. Damn you reptile!!
"Mason you sure you're alright?? If your not you can go back I can come back alone!!" Miranda said sounding very concerned. Yeah right!! Why was I afraid?? If she knew who I actually was it wouldn't hurt right??
"You want me to leave you in this wolf's Dane?? Are you kidding me??" I shook my head negatively and she rolled her eyes at me. So sexy!!!!
"Mason Asher is definitely not him!! For a moment I got excited that really he's 'The Mason Asher'?? But you can see Lawrence why would Mason Asher react like this for me?? I mean he has lots of pretty girlfriends!!" Miranda rolled her eyes so dramatically as if she solved a big mystery.
But, 'Hey you girl, you just hurted my ego!! What do you think of me?? Some kind of teenager playboy??'
Lawrence laughed so loudly at her comment that I wanted to scotchtap her mouth!!
"You're right Mir!! How can this guy be my brother!! Right Mason!!" You ungrateful sister!! I just wanted to strangle her or myself. So, Lawr argued with me soo much to meet with Miranda??
"Wait what?? Lawr your an Asher??" Miranda bursted while shacking Lawrence by her shoulder. I thought Lawrence's neck would snap.
"Stop Mir!!! Oh my God! My neck hurts!! What are you, Wonder Woman??" Lawrence rubbed her neck. While Miranda stuck her tongue out feeling ashamed of her outburst.
"I thought you knew me being an Asher!!" Lawrence wiped her invisible tear while saying it dramatically. Drama Queen!!
"I didn't know you were that Asher. Besides, I never met your brother!!" Miranda said innocently while she rested her face on the palm of her hands.
"I heard He's very handsome and has sexy hands!!" Miranda said dreamily. It felt good to see her dreaming about well..... Me !!!! At that time Lawr winked me mischievously. She was really enjoying seeing Miranda fantasize me infront of me!! But unfortunately Miranda noticed that wink and I started calculating about what she could think about it because in everyway it looked bad!!!
"Lawr!! By any chance, Do you like Mason??" Miranda suddenly squealed with excitement. Both Lawr and I choked on our drink.
"Hey are you okayy!! Oh my God, take deep breaths!!" She pated our backs and we were finally able to stop our coughing.
And here I was thinking why was she so silent. So this garbage was going around her brain. ' I mean how much useless things she thinks letting useful stuff away??' I saw everyone was watching us with curious eyes. How shameful!!!
"Mir baby!! Don't ever come to that conclusion ever again, okay??" Lawrence hold Miranda's shoulder and showed a creepy sign, Which I was sure indicated 'If you say something rubbish like this ever again, I will kill you!!' And if Lawrence wanted to kill then she could, after all she was trained by me!! 'Why do I feel like my nose got longer like Pinocchio by saying that??'
When I was lost in my own world I heard Miranda's sweet laughter. She was soo cute!! I couldn't describe. I barely heard what they were talking because I was so engrossed in my world admiring Miranda that I didn't even realize it was already time for our leaving.
"Mir!! Why don't you stay with me today?? You can also meet my brother." I halted at my pace hearing it. 'Lawrence you just wait. If I don't strangle you... No..... I'll cut your allowance. Then if you don't come around crying, I'll change my name!!' Wait I couldn't just change my name!! I would have to make sure Lawrence come to me crying!!
"Mason you're acting real weird!! What's wrong with you??" Miranda asked me frustratingly and even stomped her feet like a kid. Lawrence was grinning ear to ear. I swear I was fine till she showed up!!
"I think he's a little peachy Mir!!" Miranda looked between us and raised her hands in the air frustratingly.
"I'm done understanding what's going on between you guys!!" Miranda turned her back on us crossing her hands on her chest. I should ask what was wrong with her because she wasn't like this at all till— till Lawrence showed up.
I got it. It was her real self!! Funny, cute and childish. Then why did she always cover it with those arrogant, meanie act??
"Mir love!! Don't be angry. Here orange juice!!" Lawr took out a bottle of juice from her bag and handed it over to Miranda.
"You remembered????" Whoa!! Just an orange juice and they got back to being good friends again?? She really got low demands!!
"Of course I did. You always loved orange juice!! Okay so next time we'll go exploring the country how's that??" Lawr asked and Miranda squealed with happiness and jumped in the air clapping. I really need to get used to of this version of her!!
"Miranda." I paused after calling her. I still couldn't get enough with her name. I saw her looking at me with those big brown eyes. And I would also never get used to with those eyes.
"We need to go to airport!!"
Suddenly her face changed. Oh no!! I wanted her to be chrippy like before!!
"Lawr, Roe and Melisandre are coming. I'll have to pick them up!!" Miranda said. Annoyance showed to her face.
"Discount Iron Man?? Oh I can understand how much hell this vacation gonna be for you." Lawr said sarcastically. What was that supposed to mean?? I was dumbfounded when both of them bursted out laughing.
"Well, it wouldn't be that bad. I'll have fun with them." Miranda nodded her head side ways to look like a cute fairy. Well, it looked like that to me!
Then we bid farewells and Lawrence got into her car while I drove Miranda to airport. I could see how much I was gonna love Mir's company. I wanted to explore each and every side of her, her moods, her childishness, her happiness, her sadness... everything.
