Friend

CHAPTER XII: Friend

I swear, this is one of the best sleeps I ever had. I felt light. I felt like there are no problems that I would be facing today when in fact, I have a lot. I still haven't talked to the boys.

Ugh, I missed them already!

I missed Aspen's curly hair, pointed nose, and his bright smile. I think he has the best smile among the four of them.

I missed trying to make Damon smile. Well, he is bit playful but not as playful as Aspen. Damon has this aura that will give you goosebumps. When his grey eyes stares at you, it will surely give you chills. He's also tall has a well-built body. As far as I know, he still keeps on going to the gym to maintain his body figure.

Maddox is surely the most serious of them all. He has this famous blank expression every time he would interact with someone. Of course, we are an exemption. We get to see his soft sides. He has this hard facial features that will surely make the girls fall for him. He has pointed nose, thick brows, intense eyes, and sharp jawline.

On the other hand, Stephen seems to be more matured in a sense of dealing with problems. We would whine about some difficulties but he would just be chill, thinking a way to handle things without whining. He's also a genius. He aced all of his subjects. He also looked like a genius with his glasses. He has clear eyesight but he prefer using reading glasses every time. His has soft features that fits his personality.

Maybe, this is the time to settle things with them.

I was looking at myself at the mirror when I realized this is the simplest outfit I wore to school. Since my body is fit, my clothes fit me very well. I just wore a pair of fitted jeans and a fitted cropped shirt for my top. I just used my rubber shoes to fit my outfit for today.

I just put a little makeup up on my face just to highlight my features. Since I have a natural red pouty lips, I didn't bother to put on some lipstick. Well then, I'm ready to go.

"Hi." I was shocked when I heard Cameron's voice.

He is here. What is he doing here early in the morning?

"What are you doing here? It's still early." I whispered to him when I reached his side.

"I'm here to fetch you." He smirked.

"This early?" I rolled my eyes at him but he just made faces in front of me.

He just stopped annoying me when we heard my mom faked a cough. I turned to her but she just raised her hand, motioning us to go to the dining table. So, we did.

We ate silently.

I was wondering why we are silently eating today when usually, we aren't. Normally, we would talk about school and stuff but today was different. I wonder why.

"So what's the score between you guys?" we just finished eating when mom suddenly spoke. She placed her elbows up on the table and intertwined her hands. I also noticed that Ty seems interested about it because he leaned over the table.

"Ma'am I'm here to formally let you know that Blaire and I were officially together." Cameron said without hesitation. My eyes grew about what he said. I didn't expect him to be blunt about it in front of my mom.

"I told you last time, you can call me mom since I know that my daughter would say yes to you sooner or later. And guess what? My speculations were right! Look at you. You're officially together now." I let out a relieved sigh when I heard my mom chuckled.

"Just make sure you won't hurt my sister, dude. Or you are a dead meat." Tyler first glared at both of us but then it turned out into a chuckle.

"I promise, I won't hurt Blaire. I won't let anyone hurt her. Not on my lifetime." He faced and smiled. That was one of the purest smile I've seen.

Our subject teacher before lunch didn't show up so here I am, in our headquarters, waiting for the boys to come here. I knew they would come here because on normal days, they would buy food on the school cafeteria but eat here on our headquarters.

I heard laughters outside the room. I instantly knew it was them based on the deep voices I've heard. The door cranked open and saw the four gorgeous boys that I have missed.

I immediately got up the chair and ran towards them. I hugged them as soon as I've reached their place. They seemed shocked to see me here based on their facial expressions.

Who wouldn't be? I'm the type of person who won't lower my pride if it isn't my fault.

"What are you doing here, little Blaire?" Damon asked.

"Well, I want to sort things and honestly, I missed you guys." I pouted. They just chuckled and riffled my hair. That's when I know that we're okay now. Even when no explanations, they understood me.

They were already playing with the play station when I remembered that I have something to tell them so I called them to gather around.

"What's this all about?" Maddox groaned. Probably he's annoyed because I disturbed him from playing.

"Okay. Cameron a-and I-I were already together. Just yesterday. Sorry to inform you this just now." I tilted my head to my side to avoid eye contact with them.

"We can't do anything about it but accept it." Aspen sighed.

"We have to accept the fact that we can't have you to ourselves forever because you've grown a fine woman now." Stephen added.

"Yeah. That Cameron should make sure that he won't hurt you because I will beat the hell out of him." Damon hissed.

"Dame, chill. He won't. I promise." I smiled at him.

"Okay. Can't help it. If it's about you, no one can stop us." He raised his arms as a sign of defeat.

We are talking about some random stuff when the headquarters' door suddenly opened and there came in a girl who is panting really hard as she closes and locked the door. Maybe she didn't notice us because she's in a rush.

"Whoo. I thought those girls would kill me." She said as she wiped off her sweat.

I approached her but it seems like she don't really notice us.

"Hey, how can I help you?" I asked when I reached her place.

She was shocked to see me but I was more shocked than her because of what I saw.

"Hand me over the first aid kit!" I shouted not taking my eyes off of the girl's arms.

It was full of scratches! How can she take that? Gosh. Her arms were bleeding!

I quickly reached for her arm to treat it. She's trying to take her arm back but didn't succeeded because she lacks energy. I looked back to seek help from the boys but to my surprise, they are not paying attention to us. Geez!

"Y-You d-don't have t-to do that." She said trying to avoid the cotton balls.

"What happened out there?" I asked curiously.

"H-Hayden's fan girls went ballistic over me." She said soflty.

"Hayden?" I repeated because I don't know any Hayden.

"Yeah. Gabe." She said. Oh, Gabe let her to call him his first name. Juicy huh.

"Well, we really aren't a thing but his fan girls are always insisting that we have. But the truth is, I only have him as a friend because I don't have any friends. But it's okay at least I have one, right?" she added.

She's pretty. After the long sentences she said, I get to see her face clearly. She has this fair skin, bright blue eyes, pointed nose, and also a naturally curled lashes.

"Sorry, did I talk to much?" she bowed down out of embarrassment.

"No, I actually liked it." I turned to her.

"This is my first time to have a civil conversation with a girl, actually." She chuckled.

"Well, I can also be your friend." I said.

"Really? I mean, wow. Finally! Someone wants me to be her friend!" she smiled.

"Yes, I'm willing to be your friend." I smiled.
