CHAPTER SEVENTEEN: Summer Games II
Brandon POV
Soon everywhere was lively with a lot of laughter and Lila joined in by being our lie detector.
'Number 6' Derek said.
'Ok, describe the girl you like?' I smirked expecting something cozy. He gave a sweet smile surprising me,
'Ehm, the girl I like is beautiful, smart, at times rude but it's cute, she act all strong outside but she's a softy inside, and she's too dense to notice my feeling but I know that one day I would step up courage and tell her that I like her' Derek answered ending with a romantic smile.
Now I'm more curious about who the person is. 'Wow, so Ellyn, your turn' I said.
'18' he answered
'Who was your first kiss' I asked giving him a bad guy look.
'I haven't had my first kiss' Ellyn calmly answered.
'What!!' chorused Michelle and Elisa which gave Ellyn a frightening look.
'Is that a bad thing?' he asked innocently.
'Yes, what have you been doing with your life? Studying?' Michelle attacked him.
'He isn't the only one, me too and it isn't a bad thing' Derek defended.
'Nick, won't you help me' Michelle pleaded with Nick who looked at her and didn't say anything.
'Nick? That's not helping, he is a player' Elisa said against involving Nick.
'What about you?' Ellyn attacked Michelle
'I have, I have' she threw back
'Who?' Ellyn attacked again since Michelle is still furious.
'Rence!' Michelle said spilled the oil.
'What!' almost there everyone chorused. I was totally surprised along with Lila, Nick, Isabella and Ellyn.
'And you didn't tell me' Isabella queried making Michelle realized what she said and got embarrassed she ran into the bathroom. Ellyn smiled slightly but it disappeared when Terence followed her.
'Are you sure that wouldn't kiss again' Nick fondly asked.
'Nick!' Derek shuned Nick. Soon they were back, Michelle couldn't look at my face. Everyone was silently looking at her waiting for to talk,
'Dad, I'm sorry I didn't tell you or any of you, only Elisa and Derek that knew' Michelle said and slowly lifted her eyes from the ground to look at me.
'Apologises accepted, but it's a normal thing, so who's next?' I changed the subject.
'Me!' Michelle said happily raising her hand. 'That's my girl' Terence whispered while Ellyn foolishly smiled, Elisa looked down but she quickly changed her facial expression when she noticed I'm looking at her.
'Dad, Number 8' Michelle kept calling cheerfully, 'I didn't really want you to pick the number but I got no choice, what's the worst day of your life' I asked sadly knowing what she would say, she tried to be cheerful.
'The last day mom walked through that elevator, but she told me she would be back and I will try to get her back and tell her I miss her' Michelle said with a force laugh. Elisa stood up and went to hug Michelle, what a set.
'Elisa, it's your turn' I said, she seems nervous
'5' she said trying to hide her nervousness.
'Would you tell your best friend a secret that would break you guys relationship' I asked, this is a really hard question.
'At first, I wouldn't but I'll be guilty but I would have to tell her, even if she gets mad at me, I trust her that she would forgive me' Elisa answered smiling at Michelle and moved her eyes to Terence to steal a glance while Terence was busy staring at Michelle side view.
'Rence!Rence!!' I called trying to the day dreaming lover boy attention.
'Yes, uncle is there a problem' he asked jumping back to reality.
'Nah, it's your turn' I said,
How could he forget what he have been doing for more than an hour, one of a kind.
'Ok, 36' he said
'That's the same number you picked in the previous round so it's gone, pick another'
'Oh, then 26?' he asked to be sure if the number is taken or not
'Ok, would you prefer, your mom or dad?' I asked, this question was for Michelle but now it's taken.
'Actually, I prefer my mom to my dad, My dad is always wanting me to behave like a matured man' Terence said making a finger gesture with his fingers by the side of his head
'It's my turn right?40' Nick said, I stared at the question it's really an emotional question for someone who doesn't care about human emotions.
'What was the worst word ever told to you?' I asked keeping a steady look at him.
He kept quiet for a while 'That I'm a bad guy?' he said casually
'That's a lie' Lila accused, she's a lie detector.
Nick breathed out and said, 'she told me that I didn't deserved to be love just so I could let go of her. Maybe I don't deserve to be loved but heartbroken' Nick concluded. Derek gave him a shoulder pat and Terence have him a slight punch to make him recover from his heart break. Nick started laughing at both of them and they teased one another, what a sight to see Nick soft side.
'You guys shouldn't forget that I still exist' Isabella said getting everyone's attention, 'Why would we?' Derek said rhetorically.
'Better, Number 46'
'Who's your latest crush' I asked giving a goofy smile
'I've lot of crush but the latest is.....is Ellyn' Isabella said giving Ellyn q cute smile and stare, Ellyn just rolled his eyes like he was used to having girls crush on him. I could have sworn that I saw Derek ball a fist. We did many rounds and ended up on Ellyn again.
'48' Ellyn said awaiting his question.
'What do you do during your leisure time?' I asked
'Studying, what else' Michelle butted in
'Chelly, I didn't ask you' I shuned
'I'm sorry' she said while her and Ellyn were having an eye fight.
'Well, what I do during my leisure time is a secret, but I think I got to tell, promise it leave that door' he said looking around and everyone nodded
'Playing games' he said with a goofy smile.
'So what game have you played' Derek asked
'A lot'
'That's unbelievable, I want proof' Derek said now in a serious tone. Ellyn unlocked his phone and gave it to him 'What the hell! you Super Destructors latest edition?' Derek said surprised as he scroll through Ellyn's phone.
'Sure do, I'm in stage 10but it's really difficult' Ellyn said with pride Terence and Nick gathered round the phone then Ellyn joined them and they were going through all the games on Ellyn phone. I guess Ellyn have gotten a lot of friends. Ellyn's rang the ID was "Mom" with two heart emoji.
'Hey mom'
'I'm fine and having good time'
'You wouldn't be back? Why? Don't tell me you are working over night again? I can come over and help'
'I should sleep here?'
'You sent my what!?' he said raising his voice
'Don't even go there'
'That's not going to happen'
'You will come pick me tomorrow afternoon'
'Ok, I'll be waiting, love you mom' he said and hang up.
The doorbell rang and Michelle wen to the door it was a delivery man who brought a small baggage. Michelle can back holding it up 'For Ellyn' she read the pasted paper. Ellyn walked towards her quickly and snatched the bag.
'Are you going to sleep over here' Isabella asked getting too happy.
'Yeah, my mom wouldn't be back tonight and she hates leaving me all alone at home, so I guess I have no choice' he said looking at Michelle who was seriously unhappy with it. Derek, Nick and Terence showed Ellyn to the boys' room and came back to complete the game as Lila left to prepare dinner.
'Number 50 is for everyone, who did you want to spend your life with' I asked with a devilish grin. Nobody answered so I got a sheet of paper for each of them to write it since they can't say it aloud. They wrote it secretly and gave it to me, I took the paper inside my room and went back to have dinner. After dinner I suggested we watched a two hour action movie, "Star wars".
While everyone was watching I sneak into my room to read their answers.
Elisa: Terence but he doesn't notice me
Michelle: Terence, who else can't end up with Ellyn
Nick: Not found anyone that deserves my love
Derek: My sweet and cute Isabella
Isabella: Ellyn, he's super handsome
Terence: Chelly, my girl
Ellyn: Michelle
Now I found out two guys that and I'm ready to watch how their love life goes I hope it's more interesting than mine.
