Emily
I told him about being the only child of my parent then he told me they are only three which is him, his little sister who is just eight and an older brother.
I skipped the part about me having a boyfriend for no reason.
"So, do you have a boyfriend?" he asked.
"Umm yeah,but he is not around for now."I replied but why did I add that last part?
"Oh."he replied and I tried to read his expression but I couldn't figure anything out.
"So,are you dating Santana or any other girl?" I asked him.
"No."he replied with a frown.
"what's wrong?"I asked with a concerned look.
Did I do anything wrong?
"Nothing,I think we need to go in it's already late."he replied standing up.
"but it's... "I started to protest.
"Goodnight Emm."He said with a killer smile.
Oh my! Can his beauty be more intimidating?
I battled with my inner self as I watch him leave.
I went inside the room and lay down on the bed.
"What's going on?" Steph asked as she settles on the bed close to me.
"What do you mean?" I asked her.
"You think I didn't see you guys right? I saw the both of you leaving so tell me where you guys went to." She said with a knowing smile not trying to leave anytime soon.
"Okay, we just went for a ride." I give up.
"You and Xander, a ride?" She asked with her eyes widening at that revelation.
"Yeah,we actually went to a game house but don't think about it too much, It was nothing."I replied as I shrug off my clothes and headed to the bathroom for a quick shower.
"Well, if you say so I will give it a rest " Steph replied with a shrug as I heard the ruffling of the bedsheets to show that she is already settling for bed.
I on the other hand couldn't sleep.
I kept on thinking about Jayden.
I wonder when he will get back so I would stop looking for company from strange places.
Still lost in thought, Xander's face appears.
I wonder why I'm thinking about this guy.
I later gave up to sleep when I was feeling too tired.

Waking up this morning, everywhere seem quiet.
I sat up from the bed and wondered where everybody was.
I stood up and slowly walked to the bathroom to wash my face and brush my teeth.
I checked myself on the mirror then took my phone and went downstairs after wiping my face.
As I got to the living room, they were all gathered there doing one thing or the other but my footsteps drew their attention which didn't last when they realized it was just me.
Yeah, just me Emily.
I sat down then noticed Xander wasn't present.
I wonder why .
I served myself pancakes, diced beef and custard.
A tap on my left shoulder interrupted me and I looked up and came face to face with Samantha.
"Hi, can I sit here?" She asked smiling.
"Sure." I replied as I continued eating.
"So, I hope you all are enjoying your stay here."
A voice which happens to be Mrs Johnson, Kelly's mum asked as she came down from the stairs into the living room.
She was covered with a floral flair stay-in gown coupled with a fluffy slippers and her blond hair was tied in a high bun.
She looked so elegant even without makeup.
She chatted with us and later left us to ourselves.
We continued the chatting then we had desert which was home made chocolate smoothie and apple pie.
Xander hasn't gotten here yet and trust me to be getting curious already.
I decided to go upstairs to take my bath but when I got to the room, no one was there as expected.
I took my time in undressing then I stepped into the bathroom.
I closed the door but didn't bother turning the lock.
The water was a bit warm so, I stayed long in the bathroom because I was enjoying the feeling.
I washed my hair, took my bath and wrapped myself in my white towel which happens to have small strawberries design on it.
On opening the bathroom door, I freezed as I saw Xander siting on my bed.
Oh my God !!
I quickly turned back and my fore head came in contact with the bathroom door.
Trust me, it wasn't nice at all.
Ouch!! This hurts like a bitch.
Xander rushed to where I was standing, Calling my name in the process.
"Don't come any closer." I said tightening my hold on my towel.
I wish the ground could just open up and swallow me even if it's for just two minutes.
This is so awkward.
" Are you okay?" He asked almost touching me.
"Do I look like someone that's okay?" I shouted as I held the top of my towel tight to avoid it from falling down.
Only to look up at the sound of Xander's sudden burst of laughter.
"What's so funny?" I asked him not finding this situation funny at all.
"You look so cute when you are angry." He said as he moved and touched my left cheek.
alright that did it.
I don't wish to be given a mirror right now because I'm very sure I am as red as a tomato.
I can feel the head on my cheeks and neck.
Oh God! Why does today have to start like this?
"You are beautiful." He said coming closer.
"Please stop." I said in a voice that sounded too low to be mine.
I moved to the side since there was no longer space to move back unless I decide to open the bathroom door.
"What's going on here?" I heard as Santana stepped into the room.
Geez, this is not happening right now.
I finally summoned courage and moved to the side of my bed.
"See you around Emily." Xander said with his signature smile as he left the room.
"You owe me an explanation." Santana said as she came to where I was dressing up.
"I don't owe you shit." I told her as I put on my long sleeve black crop top and flair ,short, purple and black poker dot skirt.
Luckily, she dropped the discussion and left.
I dried my hair and did a light make-up after stretching my hair.
I sat down in the bed and dialed Jayden's number since I had the room to myself.
"Hey," he said as he picked up on the second ring.
"Hi,I miss you." I said picking the small ropes on my cloth.
"I miss you too baby." He replied.
I told him about me enjoying the stay in Kelly's house but I didn't tell him about Xander.
"Hope nobody is bothering you." He said.
"Yeah, no one is bothering me." I replied.
He told me about England and informed me that he has something for me but that will be when he gets back.
We chatted a little more and he told me that he had to go.
"Okay, bye then." I told him and he replied with his own "bye,I love you."
"Love you more" I said before ending the call.
"Are you going somewhere?" Xander asked as I was coming down from the staircase.
"Nah, just want to go and receive some fresh air." I replied.
"Okay, after you then." He replied following me.
I nod in reply and I couldn't even look at him because what happened some minutes ago was still fresh on my mind.
"What's wrong?" He asked dragging my attention.
"Nothing,why?" I replied turning to look at him.
"I asked you what your hobbies were but I guess you didn't hear me,you looked so deep in thought." He replied with a smile that didn't reach his eyes.
"Oh, I don't have any hobby in particular. I just do whatever comes to mind but I love watching movies anyway." I replied as we got to the garden.
"So, will you go watch a movie with me?" He asked which took my attention to him once again.
Is he indirectly asking me out on a date? Well, I doubt.
I want to decline but I guess one movie won't hurt.
Right?
"Sure, since I'm less busy but I will have to go change my clothes."I replied making a move to go back inside.
" You don't need a change of clothes,you are okay this way." He said eyeing me with a smirk I would love to wipe off from his face.
"Well, unfortunately for you, I'm not comfortable and I won't take your time so just wait a little and I will be right back." I said as I quickly walked to the room.
Pervert!
I put on a baggy jeans and sandals but didn't change my top.
I checked my face and it was okay so I took a little amount of money and left to meet him downstairs patiently waiting.
**
When we got to the Cinema, people were just staring at us because Xander took us there with one of his cars.
Luckily for me, they were showing a movie I really wanted to watch.
"A simple favour."

" Meanwhile in Kellys house."
Stephanie is seen wandering about.
"What do we have here?" Austin asked as he held her .
"I have what you asked me to bring,you can have it." She said as she gave him the cloth.
"That's my girl." He said as he pecked her on her right cheek.
She blushed but as she wanted to hold him, he removed her hand from his.
"I actually asked you to bring her panties not her cloth.
You didn't finish the Job but since I promised you a kiss,I will give it to you anyway."He said as he kissed her without emotion.
"Thank you." She replied.
"Ofcourse you have to thank me since you are so desperate." Austin replied as he started walking away.
"What do you need it for though?" Stephanie asked.
"It makes me feel closer to my princess." He replied refering to Emily.
"Emily, I'm coming for you and I must get you."he said as he inhaled Emily's top and smiled happily.
"I can't believe I just did this to Emily." Steph said to herself as she was pacing round the room.
"You are doing this because you really like Austin and you want him." She said trying to convince herself.
"Or you are just so desperate." A mocking voice said in her head.
"Am I ?" She asked herself remembering when Austin called her desperate.
