Chapter Fourteen

As I leave the woods I spot Reece stood by my front door with his arms folded, he smiles over at me lifting the walkie-talkie up to his mouth. He's probably telling everyone of my return, it's so predictable now. "You're in so much trouble when your dad gets here" he smiles as I reach my house, I just smile opening my garden fence and walking in. "That's why I'm gonna head to bed now and barricade my door, he might have calmed down in the morning" I smile placing a kiss on his cheek as a thank you before walking in the house. Once I reach my bedroom I do indeed push my chest of drawers in front of my door, also pushing my bedside tables to stand in front. Now I know some of you are thinking that bedside tables aren't that heavy, believe me when I tell you that mine are full to the brim with junk. Once I made sure my bedroom was like fort locks, I go to my bathroom to wash and get out of my soaking wet clothes from running in the rain. I turn my shower on hearing the running water hitting the floor below, as I do that I hear the front door slam close and my dads loud voice echo through the house. I strip my clothes off and jump in the shower, if the barricade fails he isn't gonna walk in the bathroom if he hears me showering. Like on cue I hear him trying to open my door and the few failed attempts at breaking through, he mutters some curse words before I hear his footsteps walking away until they were fully gone. I told you the bedside tables were heavy, my junk collection saves the day again! You know when you're in the shower, you start to get those thoughts that you wouldn't get if you were I don't know, sitting in the kitchen. Well I guess that's why they call them shower thoughts, I dump a big handful of shampoo into my hand and start scrubbing my hair, yes I know that's not what you're meant to do but I don't time to sit there and delicately tab my scalp with the shampoo, I'm a busy woman. My mind starts to drift to Cody of all people, than I soon remember that I had a lunch date with him that I totally blew off! Great! I was actually looking forward to that and to get to know him better, but because of all the drama that's been happening I missed it. You know he was perfect, people like that don't just come into my life often. What if he was the perfect guy for me but I've ruined it?! I rinse the shampoo out my hair when I spot the white bandage wrapped around my arm, the really wet and disgusting bandage might I add. That's gonna be no use to me now, I start to unravel the bandage, once it was fully off I see the huge gash that went down my whole forearm, that's bigger than I remember! But then again I did only look at it for a second before passing out, I reluctantly take a closer look at the injury where I discover what looks like stitches. Did Cody stick my arm up? How and where? He probably used my first aid kit that my dad brought, it cost a lot so it wouldn't surprise me if it had things to stick people back up. Wait Cody knows how to do that? See the perfect guy and I let him go! It still looks as though it should be covered up, so I quickly finish up with my shower kneeling down to my bathroom cupboards. My dad didn't only spent a ton of money on a first aid kit for the kitchen, oh no, he brought one for every room! I decide against putting a bandage on, A because it doesn't look like it really needs a bandage and B, like I would know how to put one on. So there I was knelling in front of my bathroom cupboards, wrapped in a towel slowly peeling the white covering from the plaster, which side note would be easier if my hands weren't wet. After a little struggle the plaster was successfully on my arm so I could fix my hair, I stood in front of my mirror drying my hair with another towel when I hear something. I freeze looking over at my bathroom door that leads out into my bedroom, I wait for a few seconds but hear nothing so I go back to drying my hair. But as I start to dry it again the sound appears, this time it happened again straight after. It was a weird sound, like something was hitting my bedroom window. I place my towel on the counter before slowly opening the door, I peep my head out turning to look at my window, where for a second nothing happens until a stone smacks it making that noise. Okay so I guess I can throw the tree theory to the side, I still very cautiously make my way over to my window. Let's all remember that I was still wrapped in a towel with damp hair, I was extremely valuable right now. Once I reach the window and peer out a feeling of relief takes over my sense, Cody was stood in my garden with a handful of stones. I smile opening my window up, the cold air instantly causes me to shiver but worse due to my hair being damp. "Do you think you're in some type of old movie, What are you gonna do next time, hold an old boom box?" I ask with a laugh my damp hair now blowing in the wind, he also laughs dumping the pile of stones on the ground. "This is the only way I could get hold of you, I was starting to get worried when you never showed for our lunch date" he shouts putting his hands on his hips staring up at me, aw he was worried about me, once again perfect guy! "Yeah sorry a family emergency came up, I really wanted to go to lunch with you, hopefully we can another day" I smile kind of hinting in a way for him to ask me, I didn't want him to think I wasn't interested and was just blowing him off. "Why don't we have evening dinner date? How do I know another family emergency won't come up?" He asks knelling to the floor picking a picnic basket up, whoa he came prepared. "Once again I would love to, but have you seen the whether?" I ask looking around at the cold and rainy night, the wind was also starting to pick up. "Then let's have it in your room, catch!" He shouts before throwing the basket in the air, I reach out my arms and quickly catch the basket as it went passed my window, also having to pull my towel up as I went. Without warning he starts to climb my drainpipe, okay does this dude think he's spider man? Wait wouldn't Spider-Man just shoot that web stuff out of his hand? I'm actually asking you that question, I don't know much about Spider-Man, I know how shocking right. I take a few steps back as he emerges in my bedroom window, he had a huge smile on his face as he jumps through. I see his eyes move to my barricaded door, I guess normal people don't have that in their houses. "That's a part of the family emergency" I smile holding my towel again, it keeps trying to fall down "give me two seconds to get changed into proper clothes so I'm not stood here in a towel" I smile looking down at myself. He must have not noticed as he whips his head around from looking at the door to looking at me, whoa it was so quickly he could have broke his neck! Or given himself extreme whiplash. This is where his eyes just start looking all over my body, his mouth wide open as he stood there. He actually takes a step closer to me as he went, I had this weird pull feeling towards him like something was physically pulling me towards him. I close the gap that we had going on just looking up, he cups my face with his hand for a second before his lips crash to mine. Insane sparks just spread throughout my face, I mean yeah I've kissed other guys before but none have felt like this. After a few minutes things get rather intense, I'm not the kind of girl to give it all on the first date. So I pull away slightly placing my hand on his chest, he looks rather shocked staring at me. "I thought we were having a picnic? Now I'll be two minutes" I smile stepping back and going towards the bathroom "I won't be long, you can watch my barricade while I'm gone if you like" I smile now fully in my bathroom, he sends me a smile before I close the bathroom door. I stand there for a second shocked before walking over to my mirror, okay what the heck just happened? Did that really just happen? Well it did as I just lived through it, I can't be believe that just happened! You know back in the woods when I said Scott was hot, you have not seen hot if you've never met Cody! He is off the chart hot actually, they'll have to make a new chart just for Cody! And I just made out with him! Okay what the heck! There is a mega hot dude sat in my bedroom who I just made out with, in what universe did I ever think that would happen to me?! Okay Erika, instead of going over how insane it is, get changed and go back in there before he gets bored and leaves. Okay yeah great I'm now talking to myself, which is always fun. Let's just get ready and go back in there, to the hot guy in your bedroom.
