~chapter 36 - urgent~

~Laurence's pov.~

"I give up!" I shouted and an eruption of laughter was heard. I sat up quickly and glared at y/n.

"I can't believe you can't work out riddles! I thought you where the smart one." She teased and I just slightly smiled.

It had been 2 weeks since we became friends again ,and I didn't regret it at all. We are both currently at my house, which had been empty for a while since zane left to the lodge with Aphmau.

"Will you at least tell me what the answer is?" I asked and looked up at her, attempting to make puppy eyes.

"No, I can tease you more if I don't tell you the answer." She smirked and I lifted up my phone.

"Well then I guess I'll use Google." I gave her large toothy smile as I waved the phone above my head.

In one swift movement she jumped up onto her feet and dived at the phone yelling. "That cheating!" Then afterwards tripping up because of my feet and falling onto my lap.

She had managed to grab my phone, however I was also still holding it. I could feel her warm fingertips over mine ,our faces where barely millimetres away and her eyes where locked onto mine with an angry expression.

This stopped as she examined our position, then shyly moved away. This happens accasionly, but we both brushed it off each time.

"Fine then, be a cheater." She slightly scoffed and her tail swung slightly. Any movements from her ears or tails where small and uncommon.

She contradicted her brother, who was always moving his ears and tails to describe his expressions more... I remeber her being similar to him before the drama in highschool.

I heard a click then..."Laurence?" Y/n asked whilst tilting her head slightly.

"Sorry, I was just daydreaming..." I smiled.

"I could tell, you have a thinking expression. It's cute." She said bluntly, then picked up her phone that had made a few notification noises over the past hour.

Heat slightly rised to my cheeks, but quickly cooled once I noticed her slightly annoyed at her phone screen.

She skimmed through a few things on her phone, however changed to slowly examining something on her screen. Curiously, I looked at the screen slightly to see some text messages.

Then she spoke up.

"Hey.. I'm sorry to cut this short.. but I need to go.. I'll see you at work tomorrow." She gave me a small smile.

"Their re-opening the cafe tomorrow, so we will be wearing our work uniforms remeber?" I laughed.

"Oh yeah I can't wait to wear a maid outfit." She replied sarcastically, then added. "See you later then."

"See you later." Was all I could manage to say as I watched her leave.

I let out a heavy sigh. Me and y/n where closer ,but I still knew she was keeping secrets of some sort... Maybe something happened in college? I'm not sure...

~your pov.~

I finished a few words and noticed Laurence staring into nothing slightly above him, obviously daydreaming. I examined his smooth skin and other facial features.

I sighed and clicked my fingers by his head, afterwards speaking his name in a confused tone.

"Sorry, I was just daydreaming..." He told me, with a slight smile whilst he spoke.

My thoughts took over my voice, therefore making me reply with "Yes I could tell, you have a thinking expression. It's cute."

The room was filled with silence and I decided to check my phone that had made a few notification noises that I'd been ignoring for an hour.

Hey y/n, it's gene.

Are you busy today it would be good if we could speak.

It's urgent it's about Ein and your house.

If you're ignoring me things will get worse.

Is this even the right number? Whoever I am messaging currently. Reply soon.

These messages had been sent over the past hour, and I didn't want to see gene. However, it seemed urgent and gene had been staying out of my life as much as he was able to.

I scrunched my face slightly at my phone. Why was this happening now? I would like to spend more time with Laurence. We have been seeing each other nearly every day.

I sighed slightly, then said my goodbyes to laurence. Once I walked out, I couldn't help but look back at his door. I examined all its details as if I'd never see it again.

Now then... genes house... I slowly, and cautiously approached the door, automatically recognising the sounds of zenix shouting about nothing.

Knock Knock

This was the sound that stopped the yelling and caused silence to fill the surroundings. The door was opened and I saw a moody brown haired boy in front of me.

"Hey Zenix... I was looking for gene... is he here?" I asked and slightly eyed his messy hair that resembled a birds nest slightly.

"I think he's upstairs." He replied with some attitude. "GENE!" He shouted.

"Yeah!" I heard a delayed shout from upstairs.

"There's a girl here for you!" He shouted again and waited for a reply.

"What?!" Gene asked, since he was unable to hear zenix.

"THERE. IS. A. GIRL. AT. THE. DOOR. WHO. WANTS. TOO. SEEEEE. YOUUU. DUMBASS!" He shouted again, with frustrating and I slightly laughed at the scene in front of me.

I heard footsteps pacing down the stairs and Gene was now stood behind Zenix. "Y/n, so you did get my messages?" He asked and looked at me with annoyance.

"I saw them about 5 minutes ago." I spoke coldly.

"Fine then come in for a bit, then we will leave for a while." He stated and started to lead me into his house.

"What's happening?" Zenix crossed his arms and raised an eyebrows at us. I didn't know how to reply so I slightly looked at gene, hoping he would know what to say to his friend.

"We need to discuss some stuff about the cafe." Gene spoke and dragged me up the stairs before Zenix had time to speak back.
