Blackmail so you think your life is over
I immediately muted the call and glared at mila for the missing information.
“he said we should hang out something with the whole gang.” Mila replied and rolled her eyes, I unmuted and repeated the same words to him
“I did say that,” he replied sounding guilty
“are you an imbicle?” I yelled to which the girls giggled and I shh-ed them
“no, maybe. What do I do? I really like her you know and it’s been a minute since I've been in a proper relationship. So how do I ask her?”
“just fucking call her you idiot it’s a girl not a mission.” Eric chimed in
“bro, that’s not my style it needs to be big.” Davon replied
“guys, come up with something, my parents are out anyway so this week is going to be slow. Just fucking use your heads together I'm sure Eric has some good ideas.” I said and cut the call.
Mila’s face was red and eyes were wide. I went into high alert.
“what, what happened?” I asked looking around.
“he said he likes me!” she squealed while Payton and I laughed.
After she settled we told her to just wait and see what happens.
“erm guys why is chase calling me?” Mila said and my heart skipped a beat.
“pick up and see what he wants.” I replied
After she spoke to him she informed us that Anderson doesn’t want to be alone right now, so I asked her invite them to mine. I sent a quick text to Eric and Davon and asked them to join too. This is the first time the guys were coming over to my house. It will be fun and I was also excited to see Chase after everything.
We shifted the party to the den which was a smaller living room attached to the bigger one. There was a pool table on one side and a red couch facing a plasma on the other the lights could be made bring and cosy. It’s where my parents kept their after parties when I was a baby but now we use that room to catch up and do non-business things. Davon and Eric entered and the tone of the room changed. Oh fuck. My hickey. I glanced at Mila and Payton and could hear them snickering.
Eric ran up to me to inspect what happened to my neck.
“This is not a mark from the torture session today is it?” Eric asked looking Davon, who was clearly enjoying this. I glared at both of them
“It’s from some type of session for sure.” Davon commented and the room burst out into chuckles.
“you guys suck. You're asking for some serious ass smacking in the court tomorrow.” And with that the 2 boys went silent and muttered apologies.
"Don't appologise for making fun of your leader! someone needs to tease her so this won't happen again!" Mila exclaimed
"she is right, fuck u val" Davon said.
i gave him my scariest, shut the fuck up look and he turned to mila and said, "its not how we work cause Chase is just a killer, whereas Val can seriously torture you. we're scare." the two girls chuckled.
We all sat down and Davon slyly took a seat next to Mila on the 2 person couch. I gave him a look saying ‘I see you’.
The rest of the gang entered and Vice Anderson didn’t mention the clear mark on my neck. But chase was very quiet. He sat next to me but he couldn’t look me in the eye.
“what’s wrong?” I asked him when everyone was just talking amongst themselves
“nothing killer, what can be wrong?” his answer infuriated me a little. Man is being off and not even answering why.
“well you haven’t talked to me at all, not even a slight remark about the girls finding out, don’t you want to know their reactions?” I asked in a teasing tone
“I know I'll find out soon enough.” He said while still looking ahead. Okay something is seriously wrong, my stomach did a weird turn but before I could ask him we hear a loud yell from the other side.
“How could you flirt with her that night when you knew she was into me?” Vince was surprisingly yelling at Eric. Oh that poor boy.
“oh man, calm down it was just a play these girl had though of. I was playing along!” Eric justified
“yes, but man code bro. and the touching? Why?”
“mate, I'm gay! It doesn’t matter no reaction to your lady’s part” eric said, “no offence, Payton.”
“wait what?” Vince did a 180 towards Payton who was enjoying the show until now, “I'm going to kill you Payton, I swear this girl will be the death of me.” He sighed.
