#5

To say it was awkward was an understatement because Ryan actually stuttered a reply but the blonde bought it and we got on with our work. "So what's your fav genre of music?" I asked Ryan. "Hip Hop and Pop and you laugh I kill you." he replied with a mini glare. And I did what I would do if a boy told me he likes pop music. "Who's your fav artist of all genres and why?" he stared at me but he looked thoughtful. "My favourite artist must be Whitney Houston. She's a strong woman and my rock I love her. I'm a die hard fan trust me." he said writing down. I wrote down his answer. "What about you?" "Me? my favourite band not artist was and still is Queen and boy do I love their songs I feel like they do themselves and never look for permission in other people." I said and squealed like the fangirl I am. He wrote down the answer.

"Did you know that Mona Lisa has no eyebrows?" he said out of the blue I laughed and he looked pretty serious. "Are you for real?" he nodded. "Yes it actually doesn't. Look." he gave me his phone that was displaying a Mona Lisa and she didn't have eyebrow. I tried keeping in my snort which turned into a full blown laughter. Ryan looked at me as if I was crazy. "I always thought she was beautiful but after seeing this I think Nah." I said after calming down. "Mona Lisa is beautiful Xaé." he argued I shrugged. We got some work done then looked at memes at his laptop and we stopped doing the work.

"I will see you tomorrow hey?" he said when we packed to go home. "Yeah tomorrow Ryannie." I said with a smirk he hated me calling him that. His phone chimed in with a text his smile fell. "Are you okay?" I asked him. "Yea my ride left on some emergency." he said with a sigh. "I'll drive you. No but or no's I'm driving you let's go." I said dragging him. "Okay thank you. Let me be a gentleman and open your door." he said actually opening the door. "Never repeat that unless I have no limbs yeah?" I said he nodded. "Give me your address." he did as told and I punched it in the navigation app and it directed me until I stopped at a very big mansion. A Victorian style mansion. He lives here?! "It's so big!" I exclaimed with a whisper. "You know what else is big?" a voice I forgot was beside me said. "Grow up Ryan. You live here?" I asked him still in awe he nodded. "Want to come in?" he asked. "Of course dude can I bring my camera and take pictures?" I asked with a puppy face he agreed I took my Polaroid camera and went in. He has a butler a very nice "Alfred" but his name was Joe! He had a nanny named Sarah and she was a sweetheart. "Nice to meet you too darling are you Ryan's girlfriend? He never brings anyone home I start to think he doesn't have friends." Sarah said with a slight Russian accent.

"Gosh Sara... she's not my girlfriend she's my friend actually and she drove me here like the nice kid I am I invited her in." he said with an innocent smile. "It was a mistake." he muttered that part. I laughed and nudged him. "I'll see you tomorrow 'boyfriend'." I said with a snicker he glared at me. "I will walk you out." he said with gritted teeth. "Come visit again Xaé." Sarah said. "She's not coming back Nonna." Ryan said. I gave him a look. "Oh she is I know it." she said and walked upstairs.

"Well that was awkward. Sorry for Nonna she's a romantic person so every girl I meet with she thinks I date them." he said looking down at his shoes. "How many girls were there? I know she's sweet though." I said. He blushed and looked. "It's none of your business but there were a few." I nodded. "Okay see you tomorrow." I waved at him and and drove him. Why was I jealous when he said that? No Xaé you were not and will never be. Stay away from boys! Boys are trash! My mother warned me like that after dad left.

My phone rang I jumped out of my thoughts. "Hey bitchhhh." Lilah's voice boomed through the car speakers I don't text or call and drive. "Hey baby are you on your way?" I asked her. "Mhhm I am daddy dearest has been kind to offer me a ride." she said cheerful I heard a grumble on the other side and knowing Lilah her father didn't offer she used her puppy face and he gave in. Trust me she's like that. "Okay babe see you in a few." I said. "Are you driving? You're back from your date?" she squealed and she actually forgot she was with her father. "She was on her date? Xaé were on a date? Why didn't you tell me? I need to scare boys since Lilah's gay I can't women. You need to tell me when you're going on a date." Her father said with a Mexican accent. I laughed. "Thank you daddy but I wasn't on a date your daughter is dramatic like always I think she will win an Oscar if she wants right Jack? But I was not on a date we were STUDYING and doing a project." I said. "Yes she could but she doesn't want to. Okay baby but next time just tell me even if I have to knock his teeth out yeah?" he said. "Yes yes I will." my heart warmed at the thought of him being an actual father figure in my life. "Okay I hate to ruin this father daughter moment but hey we are here where are you?" I rolled my eyes. "Go in Kyle's here I'll be there." she sighed "You know your brother is creepy but okay bye." she said and hung up.

I pulled up at my driveway and got in the house and was immediately tackled in a hug. "Save me from Master Kyle please." Delilah cried. "What kinky game are you two playing? Get off me Lilah." she still clung on to me. "You..." I pointed at Kyle. "Stay away from us the whole night yeah?" I said and the fucker smirked. "If she can't stay away from all this hot ala Kyle the awesome dude then I can't sis." he said and walked into the kitchen. "Okay he's gone now." I said to Lilah who hung on to me like I'm a Mama Koala. "Okay so tell me about your boyfriend!" she said smiling evilly. "Gosh Lilah he isn't my boyfriend he's actually just a classmate and project partner." I said blushing. Was I developing a crush? Maybe I am not sure myself but I wasn't going to let Lilah know and push me into liking him even if I didn't trust me she's that persistent.

"You're blushing do you like him?" she asked with a squeal. "I don't know? Maybe?"
