Chapter 7- Troubles

I was sitting on a stool eating my cereal when James came barging in the house. She had always been dramatic with her entrances.

"Morning Bitch." She said taking spoon from my hand and eating my cereal.

I glared at her.

"What?" She asked acting all innocent.

"Nothing." I just shrugged. God this girl!

"Where is everyone?" She asked now making her own bowl of cereals. At least she wouldn't eat from my bowl.

"Sienna took Amy and Ash to park about half an hour ago." I replied finishing my food.

"Okay. So what are we gonna do today?" She asked enthusiastically. As it was Sunday today and I promised to hang out with her, I'm stuck with her for the whole day.(I love her and spending time with her).

"Um I haven't decided yet. I have no idea. What 'bout you?" I asked taking my and her bowl to the dishwasher. She for sure doesn't eat but inhale her food.

"Hmm... Oh how about shopping?" She said getting all jumpy. Her and her obsession with mall. God!

"I don't know." I said trying to ignore my dislike to her idea in my voice. Duh! Who Am I kidding. She knows me more than I know myself.

"Oh come on. Our college's gonna start anyway. We should definitely upgrade our wardrobe. Please Su." She said with those adorable puppy eyes of her. Who could ever say no to those eyes. Damn!

"Okay. Okay fine." I huffed. She squealed.

"What are you? 5!" I commented on her childishness.

"Oh shut up and get ready." She rolled her eyes.

"Yeah yeah." We made our way to my room. James made herself comfortable on bed and I was searching something to wear when she interrupted.

"What did you guys do yesterday?"

"I promised Amy to take her to planetarium so I took her and Ash there." I replied. Now making my way to bathroom to change.

"where your parents use to take you?" She asked. My mood instantly dropped a little. My parents are still a sore subject of conversations.

"Yeah." I muttered. Coming out of bathroom. She figured my mood change and came to hug me.

"I'm sorrryyy." She hummed in my ear.

"It's alright." I hugged her back.

"You ready?" She asked smiling softly at me.

"Yup." I smiled back.

"Okay come on then. Whoo hoooo!" She said rising her fist in air. God this girl is something else, I thought to myself. But I won't have it any other way.

"Come on." I laughed at her antics.

We sat in the car. Me in passenger seat cause God knows how much she loves driving the car(my car) and how much I don't. I turned on the radio. And one of the our all time favorite bands song came up. This was gonna be a hell of a ride. 'Drag me down' By One Direction was playing and we both shared a look at each other and started singing with the song. It was a seven minutes drive, Well generally it's ten minutes drive but it was her driving the car so seven minute it was. It was hard to find a parking because of Sunday. Mall must be packed with people. I was hating agreeing to her already. She must have seen the dreadful look on my face.

"It's not gonna be that bad. Come on." She said getting out of the car.

I sat there for good two minutes until she opened my door and dragged me out of the car. We roamed like idiots for 20 minutes and finally found the store we(she was) were searching for. We went inside H&M's store. We spent next two hours buying and trying clothes. And it was so damn tiring. I don't understand how can people spend hours just roaming in malls. Anyway we were in the food court. Of course after such tiring work food was the most needed thing.

We ate talking and blabbering about absolutely everything and nothing. Honestly we had a good time apart from her dragging me inside the trial rooms. We bought more than we thought we would. But c'mon it was Jaimi you came to mall with. Obviously we would buy more than we expected and all the unnecessary too. My mind suddenly wandered to the events happened this week and the thing I was thinking most about was that boy, his eyes, the way my body tingles under his touch. How calming it was. Oh My God!. No. I couldn't think about a boy. Not now. I was having a fight with my brain and my subconscious. It was like my subconscious was mocking me. My thoughts were clouded with his thoughts and his only. And that wasn't good. My trance broke when James horned the car in front. Wait. We were in car? When did we even finish eating? My questions were answered soon.

"Okay. That's it. What is going in that thick head of yours. You were out of it the whole time. It's like you were in a complete different world.?" James said looking at me briefly.

"Huh?. Umm no nothing. It was just.... nothing." I blabbered. Confused by myself.

"Spill." She demanded. Getting a one word answer from James means she's serious as hell. And her being serious can be dangerous.

"Concentrate on driving. I'll tell you when we'll reach home." I smiled at her. Trying to calm her down a little. And clearly it didn't work. She huffed at me. Oh boi. Am I in trouble? Hell yeah!. She'll go insane if she came to know that I was thinking about a boy. I had to think of a safe out. With every block we crossed my mind was exploding with thoughts. I could already imagine the conversation going in my head and it was dreadful. Boys ain't my thing. And specially talking about a boy whom I met once and had no hope of meeting again. It's not like I wanna meet him anyway!. 'yeah keep saying that to yourself' my subconscious mocked. Oh shut up! Okay maybe I wanna, I hope to meet him again but it was not like I like him or anything. He was so arrogant. 'But he had an effect on you' My mind argued. No! he definitely didn't have any effect on me. 'What about his touch!' my mind argued more. Uggghhhhh! That was just because his hands were warm!. 'Lame excuse' My mind mocked. Huh! oh forget it. We were home and I was in trouble. And this was just because of that arrogant jerk. Uughh!! He ain't even here and already causing me trouble. Damn him!
