ANDREA'S POV
I really don't want to go out but it's been a while since Wesley has smiled and I guess it wouldn't hurt going out tonight.. Right? Anything to get my mind off Stephanie and my past troubles and just have fun,seems simple enough.
"Andrea, are you almost ready?" Wesley shouts from down stairs.
"Almost!" I said, as I tied my last lace of my sneakers.
I didn't go all out with my outfit this time, I didn't even put make up on. I don't really see whats the point, its just Drew and Keaton.
I walked down the stairs,where Wesley was waiting.He smiled immediately at me and gave my handbag that he got from the kitchen counter.
"Thanks, lets go" I said, as I walked towards the front door. Wesley went to get the car out while I gathered the rest of my things and locked up.
I then got in the car , immediately listening to a Sublime song that Wesley had been playing.
I couldn't help but smile, totally forgetting we had the same taste in music. Wesley smiled back and continued to drive.
Listen to the song "Garden grove" made me remember the first time I met Wesley and how we spoke about Sublime while washing the dishes. Those were good times I thought to myself as we continued to drive.
We drove to get movies , beers and ofcourse pizza. It was settled that I was in charge of the pizza ordering and Wesley was in charge of choosing the movies and beer.
Once we had everything we needed, we got back into the car and drove towards Wesley's home.
Once we arrived, I noticed that the lights of the house were off.
"Uh.. Wesley is anyone here?" I asked pointing at the direction of the house.
"Yeah ,they should be." He said,while turning of the ignition.
"Do they know were coming?" I asked, holding the pizza boxes while I opened the car door.
"Not exactly.." Wesley said playfully.
"What ?!" I said,trying my best not to laugh to loud. " Why didn't you tell them?"
"It's called the element of surprise Andrea" He said proudly, as he grabbed the beers and movies from the car.
"What if they are alseep?" I said, nervously as I stood dead in my tracks.
"I'm sure they're not. If anything they are probably playing X-box" He said, slightly nudging me to walk towards the front door.
"Yeah..they definitely awake" I said sarcastically as it was completely silent from where we were standing.
Wesley laughed and guided me to the front door. I followed him and waited while he unlocked the door.
Once the door was unlocked he allowed me to go in first. I looked around in the dark barely seeing anything ,until Wesley put on the light.
There was no one in sight and all I could think about how good its going to feel to say I told you so to Wesley.
I turned around to face him and gave him the 'I told you so ' look instead.
He immediately laughed "Just wait and see, they probably in their rooms.
"Yeah in their rooms sleeping" I said, as I placed the pizzas on the dinning room table.
"No one likes a smart ass" He said, playfully pushing me.
"You mean no one likes to be wrong" I chuckled,playfully pushing back.
"Well you haven't proved me wrong yet now have you?" He asked, as he pointed towards Keaton's room,indicating me to lead the way.
We walked upsrairs towards Keaton's room. The door was closed , so Wesley slowly opened the door. The room was dark, the only light we had was the light from the corridor.
Within a second ,Wesley turned on the light and there was finally enough light to see. Keaton was laying on his stomach ,with his head burried under thousands of pillows. He moved slightly as the light went on. He lifted his head out from under the pillows and turned his head slowly to face us.
"What the hell?" He slurred , as he squinted at the bright light.
"Come downstairs, were having a movie night" Wesley said
"Nah you go on without me" Keaton said as he layed himself back under the pillows and covered himself with he's plankets.
"No Keaton, get up" Wesley commanded, grabing a spare pillow that was on the floor and threw it at Keaton. Keaton didn't move. All he did was mumble from under the plankets.
"Keaton!" Wesley moaned as jumped on Keaton and attempted to wrestle him out of bed.
I laughed at the scene as I leaned against the door frame until something caught my eye.
Frames full of photos that covered the whole passage way. There were baby photos of Keaton and Wes. Them with their sisters and even photos of them and Drew when they were younger. I couldn't stop laughing at the pictures,they all were so cute. I didn't know Wesley had blonde hair in middle school? I continued to walk across the hallway to see more of the pictures until I was startled by Wesley.
"No, don't look at these" He said, attempting to cover them with his arms and body.
"Why not, you were so cute!" I said, trying to move him away from the pictures.
"No I wasn't, I don't know why my mom put these up" He said, continuing to cover the photos.
"It's not a big deal, I have photos up at my house and they are way more embarressing than this" I said, still struggling to move him from the pictures.
"No there not, your were super adorable.. unlike me" He said, covering my eyes with his hand.
"You were way more adorable than me. I mean look at this " I said, moving his hand off my eyes and pointing at a picture of Wesley when he was about 2 or 3 years old with a cowboy hat on.
" No ways , just admit it, you were way cuter" He said, grabing my arm that I used to point at the picture.
"I think we were both cute" I said, looking straight into his eyes
He took a while to respond. " Yeah I guess your right." He said, smiling "Even today your still cuter"
I looked away as I started to blush. He chuckled because he knew I was.
"Uuuuh hummm" Keaton said, standing outside his bedroom door. "Am I interupting something?"
Wesley and I looked at eachother and Wesley let go of my arm that he was holding. I took a step back and avoided eye contact.
"Lets go watch a movie" Wesley said, breaking the silence.
"Yeah lets" I mumbled loud enough for them to hear.
Wesley walked past Keaton and I walked straight after. Keaton smirked at me as I walked past ,but I ignored him and carried on walking.
"Woah wait , what about Drew?" I asked, turning towards Keaton.
"He's out with some girl called Blake" Keaton said, wrapping his planket around himself.
"Blake?" Wesley said, with a confused expression.
"Yeah , He said he met her at the food court not to long ago." Keaton said, shrugging his shoulders.
Wesley immediately looked over at me and smiled. I couldn't help but smile back because we remembered who she was. That girl who said Wes and I were a cute couple at the food court.
Wesley looked away from me and took the pizza out the boxes. The pizzas were a little cold so we decided to warm them up in the oven a little.
Wesley decided that Keaton put on one of the movies he chose while him and I get the pizza warmed up.
I leaned against the kitchen counter Wesely checked on the pizza.
Wesley than grabbed two beers and gave me one beer. "Do you have a bottle opener?" I asked.
He grabbed the bottle cap of my beer and twisted it off with his hand.
"Impressive" I said, as I took a sip.
"Yeah ,its something I learnt back in High School " He said, as he joined next to me by leaning on the counter too.
"Is that what you did to get my sister's attention?" I playfully laughed.
"No I used this to get your sister" He said, lifting up his top to expose his 6-pack.
I immediatelt looked away from his torso and drank more of my beer, without saying a word.
I coud hear him laughing even though I couldn't see him doing it. When I looked at him he had let his top back down and he was smiling to himself
.
"Hey , is the pizza done?" Keaton shouted from the living room.
"Yeah come and get it" Wesley replied back as he opened the oven.
I opened the boxes and Wesley placed the the pizza back in the boxes.
"Finally" Keaton moaned as he walked into the kitchen.
Wesley and I both laughed at Keatons unpatience and grabbed slices for oursleves. We then grabbed our beer and walked into the living room
Keaton insisted that I sit next to him while Wesley sat on the other couch, opposite us.
"What did you put in?" I asked Keaton, eating my first slice.
"Lol I have no idea , but it sounds scary." Keaton said with wide open eyes.
"Really? You got a scary movie? " I asked Wesley in an unimpressed tone.
"Not exactly" He said smiling a mischievous smile.
"Lame dude" I said, throwing a piece of pepperoni at him.
"Its not a scary movie..chill" Wesley laughed.
Seconds later the menu popped up and the title said: A haunted house.
"Oh my word it is" I said, so irritated that he choose a horror movie.
"Its not a horror movie" Wes laughed, trying not to spill pizza out his mouth from laughing.
"Sure looks like it " Keaton chimed in.
"You'll see" Wesley said, smiling at the Tv screen.
................................
Okay so a haunted house was not a scary movie. Its just some parody of Paranormal Activity and The Devil Inside. It was extremely hilarious but also had so much sexual scenes and in each one, I would catch Wesley looking at me and laughing. Keaton fell asleep 20 minutes after the movie started, laying basically on me. Once the movie was over ,Wesley got up and started to clean around the living room.
"Hey, can you help me out here" I asked , trying to wiggle my way out from Keaton's body.
Wesley laughed and lifted Keaton up so that I could , move up from the couch. Once I was off the couch , Wesley gently placed Keaton back down where he continued to sleep.
"Thanks " I smiled
'Don't mention it" He said, grabbing my plate and beer bottle from the coffee table.
"No I'll take that" I said, attempting to grab my plate but Welsey quickly snatched it away before I could get to it.
"No I insist, no guest of mine will clean" He smirked, as he walked towards the kitchen. He placed the empty beer bottles into the bin and the dirty plates in the sink.
"I must say I never knew you clean up after yourself" I said, as a gave him a round of applause.
" Ha..ha ..funny, for your infomation I'm very neat" He said, walking away from the sink.
" Oh if that's so then why are you not washing the dishes?" I asked.
" I hate washing dishes." He laughed, as he held he's arms up in defense.
Then your not that neat are you? I asked sarcastically, as I walked towards the sink and began to fill it with water.
"Uh what are you doing? " He asked, walking towards the sink.
"Someone has to wash the dishes I said,as I washed the first plate.
" I said, my guests don't clean." He said, grabbing my arms together.
"No Wes!...let me wash the dishes" I laughed, while attempting to remove my arms away from his grip.
"No just leave it!" He said, pulling me away from the sink ,while still holding my arms.
"Let go! " I laughed, as I continued to struggle.
"First promise you won't carry on washing the dishes." He said, pouting his famous pout.
"Okay ...I promise"
"Okay then" He said, as he let me out of his grip.
I smiled but than quickly ran back to the sink.
"No you promised!" Wes said, grabbing my arm.
I turned to face him. " Please let me wash the dishes...I really want to". I said, giving him the puppy dog eyes that I have been practising to myself in the mirror.
"Uuh fine, but I'm not helping." He laughed as he let go of my arm.
'Fine" I said, walking back to the sink to continue washing the dishes.
Wesley leaned against the counter next to me and observed.
"Why is that you won't wash dishes with me now, but you did help me wash dishes on the day we first met?" I chuckled.
"I wanted to make a good impression." He said, laughing at his answer.
"Wow " I said sarcastically rolling my eyes.
"Besides, your doing a way better job than me right now...You see" He said, grabbing one of the plates that I washed to show how clean it was.
"That's true " I laughed.
Wesley laughed, and placed the plate back down.
"Its getting late, I should go" I said,looking at my watch.
"Its only 11:30" Wesley laughed "Its too early to leave now"
"We have a long day tomarrow" I said.
"Yes but that doesn't mean we need to have a short night" Wesley said,nudging my shoulder.
"What do you expect us to do?" I asked curiously.
Without replying Wesley grabbed my arm and dragged me up the stairs.
" Wes , where are we going?" I asked suspiciously.
"You will see" was all he said, as he dragged me passed Keatons room. We then stoped at a closed white door. I looked at him suspiciously. He smiled and opened the door.
"Welcome to my room"He said, allowing me to enter in the room first.
"Uh, I don't think this is a good idea" I said nervously, not entering the room.
"Come on Andrea , I am not going to take advantage of you" he chuckled, waiting for me to enter the room.
I let out a nervous laugh and walked in the room. He's room was suprisingly clean besides a few yums shirts on the floor and a half made bed but ,overall the room was clean.
"So what you think?" He asked as he entered the room and closed the door.
"Its cool" I said, as I looked around.
"Yeah it's pretty sweet" He said, as he started to take a shirt from his closet.
I sat on his chair right by his desk, that was full of papers and books. I started to place the scramble of papers into a more organised pile,until I noticed a black book under the papers.
I opened the book and the front page said 'My song book'. I hit the jackpot! I turned the pages and read some of the lyrics. The song lyrics had so many meanings to them, that I felt I could relate to every single one. I never saw this side of Wesley and I liked it.
"Uh what are doing with my song book?" Wesley said, interupting my thoughts.
"Your songs are amazing!" I said,continuing to page through the book.
"You think so?" He asked as he sat on his bed, facing opposite me.
"Yes, your lyrics are insanely good! " I said excitedly
"You want me to sing you one?" He asked, with a huge smile.
"Would you?" I asked excitedly, basically jumping on the chair.
"Yeah, wait a second" He said as he streched over to the other side of the bed, grabing his guitar.
I was still holding the book , smiling the biggest smile ever.
Once he grabbed his guitar ,he looked at me. "You seem excited" He laughed.
"I am!"
"What do you want me to sing?" He asked as he adjusted the guitar on his lap.
"Can I choose from the book? " I asked excitedly.
"Yeah sure, go for it" He laughed.
I started looking through the songs, looking at each lyrics until I found the perfect one. " How about 'true friends' ,it sounds interesting" I smiled, as I closed the book and placed it back on the desk.
"Okay then" He smiled
He began to strum his guitar pasionately and I just sat up and held my knees against my chest ,amazed by his guitar playing skills.
That's until he started to sing........
'Such a sight to see
Shining light for me
So I might believe there's a spark of light shining vibrantly inside of me....'
-
I couldn't believe how good he was singing. I had goosebumps running up my spine. I could not stop smiling.Now I totally understand what Stephanie meant when she said 'She fell inlove with his voice'.
'True friends are few and far between
Hold on to them and don't let go
And they will make you shine when all else
Fades away... when it rains
When it rains....'
He ended up singing the whole song ,which I was seriously not complaining . He's voice was so angelic and familiar and I just didn't want him to stop singing.
"Wow" was all I said, as I smiled the biggest smile in my life,even my cheeks were hurting.
Wesley smiled a proud smile and placed he's guitar back to were he got it from.
"Your amazing!" I belted out. Wesley looked and me, "yeah I guess I'm okay" he said humbly. "What do you mean I guess I'm okay. Since when could you sing like that?" I asked excitedly.
"Since forever" He replied, leaning his arms on his knees.
"I can't believe you have a voice like that. I had goosebumps" I said, showing my remaining goosebumps on my arms.
He laughed " I have that effect on woman" Wesley winked. I rolled my eyes at his response and looked through his song book one last time.
Once I was done reading more lyrics , I looked up from the book to find Wesley staring outside his window. As he was gazing, I saw a tear fall from his cheek.
"Hey, what's the matter?" I asked, placing the song book on his desk and moved right next to him.
"Oh nothing" He said, looking away from the window but also away from me.
"Wes, you can tell me" I assured him, as I placed my hand on his shoulder.
He turned his head to face me, looking straight into my eyes. "Its just Stephanie used to love it when I used to sing to her so..." He trailed off.
"Oh..I understand, that was your guys thing right?"
"Yeah, we even met through singing" He said,as he gazed outside the window once more.
"Through singing? Hopefully through your singing because Stephanie singing is not exactly great." I said jokingly , hoping to lighten the mood.
Wesley smiled,"Yeah through my singing"
"Because if you heard her sing on the day you met , you would of ran away." I laughed, looking out the window myself.
"She's not that bad" He laughed.
"Are you kidding me? Are you even around when she showers...its bad" I chuckled.
"Fair enough" He laughed. Which I was so happy for, I hated seeing him so sad ..it honestly kills me inside.
My thoughts were distubed by a loud thump on Wesley's wall. I was so startled that I immediately grabbed Wesley. "What the hell was that?!"
"I don't know, I think its coming from the passage way." Wesley said,getting up from his bed."Stay here ,I will go see what's up".
I obeyed and remained on his bed, imagining the worst scenario's ever in my head.
Wesley opened his door and looked to his right "Woah Dude!"
"Wes?!, what you doing here? I tought you were at Andrea's" someone responded and it sounded like Drew. I then felt it was safe to go and see what the commotion was all about.
As I got to Wesley, I looked towards the direction that he was looking at. I was shocked by what I saw. Drew was standing in the passage way shirtless while a girl was standing next to the wall with her a jeans on and exposing a neon pink bra. She seemed slightly embarssed as she grabbed her shirt from the floor to cover herself. Only afterwards did I realise it was the girl from the foodcourt, Blake.
"Great your here too?" Drew says to me, picking up his shit and belt from the floor.
I didn't reply, I was to busy trying to not laugh at the situation.
"Dude, why are you guys not doing this in your room?" Wesley asked looking a little annoyed but also looked like he wanted to laugh just as much as I did.
"I guess you could say we couldn't wait" He replied, holding up his hands in defense."Anyways...
"Hey I know you two" Blake finally says something. "Your the two from the foodcourt!"
"Yeah its us" I said,smiling a friendly smile.
"You guys finally together now! That's great, I knew you guys would! Didn't I tell you they would Drew?" She said, facing Drew.
"Were not together". Wesley and I said in sync, as we both looked at eachother.
"Oh" Blake said disapointedly.
"Okay" Drew said clapping his hands together. "Well Blake and I are going to my room now so goodnight guys" Drew said as he grabbed Blake towards his room
"It was nice seeing you guys again" She said as she went into his room and closed the door.
"I think maybe you should take me home so they can have some privacy" I said, finally allowing the laugh that I was holding in burst out.
Wesley began to laugh hard aswell. " Okay I'm going to get my keys"
"I'll meet you down stairs" I said, as I began to walk down the stairs and made my way to the living room.
When I got to the living room, I saw Keaton laying in the same position we left him in, with his planket half way on the floor. I grabbed the planket and re-covered him. "Good night Keats" I whispered softly and smiled at him.
"Aaawh that's so adorable" I heard a voice from behind me. I smiled and turned around to find Wesley grining at me.
"Whatever, your just jealous because I don't give you that kind of special attention." I mocked ,casually walking past him and walked towards the front door.
"Oh please you wish I was jealous" Wesley said sarcastically, as he opened the front door for me.
I rolled my eyes and walked towards the car while Wesley locked up. He then joined me by the car and we both made our way inside. Wesley started the ignition and began to reverse. On the way to my house, we spoke about Keaton and walking on Drew and Blake getting busy. We laughed the whole way to my house and once we arrived,we had to stop and calm down until we stopped laughing. Once we allowed the laughter to calm down, I got out of the car followed by Wesley.
Wesley followed me as I walked towards my front door. "You don't have to walk me to the front door ,you know" I said sarcastically.
"I have to protect Keaton's princess" He mocked,giving me a noogie.
"First of all I am not Keaton's princess and second , I thought Drew was the one that gave noogies" I said,attempting to push Wesley away from me.
Wesley laughed and backed away from me."Fair enough, but you do know that Keaton diggs you right?"
"No he doesn't" I laughed,as I began to unlock my front door.
"Yeah he does, you should see how he acts around you" Wesley continued to joke.
"Yeah I don't think so, your delusional" I laughed.
"We'll see whose delusional the next time you hang out with him" Wesley smirked as he put both of his hands in his jean pockets.
"Yeah whatever....Goodnight Wesley" I smiled.
"Goodnight princess"Wesley smirked as he opened his arms for a hug.
I went in for his hug." I had a great time by the way" I said,then lifed up my head to kiss his cheek. I then pulled away and walked to towards my front door once again.
"Yeah I haven't had so much fun in such a long time." He said,smiling to himself.
"Agreed" I simply said. "Goodbye" I said,before closing the front door.
Wesley smiled and waved and then turned around to walk towards his car.
I locked then front door and began to get ready for bed.
I'm so stupid, I kissed his cheeck! I mean who does that?! ..was all I was thinking to myself.
*Buzzzz buzzzzz* My phone vibrated
I picked it up to find a text message from Wesley.
WES: "Hey! don't forget I'm picking you up tomarrow early to visit Steph at the hospital.So dont stay up to late :D"
ANDREA:" Thanks for the heads up. xD. See you tomarrow loser"
I then placed my phone on my bed side table and covered myself with my duvet. That text message made me feel better because I thought after giving him a kiss on the cheek would make things awkward. I then lied down and allowed sleep to take over.
