Chapter 14

“Wake up!” Arden’s voice yells behind the closed door. He  bangs the door three times before I hear his loud  footsteps become a distant sound.

I sigh, turning over on my back and throwing the blanket  off my body. After sneaking back in last night, I went  straight to bed after changing into my pajamas. The  events from last night kept replaying in my head.

It all felt like a dream. A silly dream. There was no way  that Blake kissed me like I was his. Or did we even kiss  to begin with? I was starting to think that it was all a  hallucination.

A tired groan left my parted lips as I got off my bed. My  body felt tired, I felt tired. But of course today was school  and if I don’t go, dad would be suspicious.

My bare feet tread over the cold floor as I make my way  across my room. My fingers wrap around the door knob  and turn. It opens simultaneously with Arden’s. He  smirks, already dressed for school.

“Had a fun night?” Arden mocks before closing his door.  His bag straps slung over his shoulder as he walked  ahead without waiting for my answer. “Blake owes me  fifty bucks by the way.”

With narrowed eyes I watch him disappear from my line  of vision down the stairs. What time is it? I turn around  and look over at the clock on my nightstand.

The time reads 7:15. A shocked gasp escapes my mouth  and I’m left running into the bathroom to get ready. I’m  never going to a party again. I scold myself. Never in my  life was I ever late for school.

Slipping on my converse I make my way down the stairs.  It’s oddly quiet, which is unusual for my family. By now  Arden would be making some silly joke that I wouldn’t  get and mom would be cackling with laughter while dad  shoots her love sick eyes. Now that was our usual but not  this sudden quietness.
