I set the bowl of flour on the kitchen counter and stood behind it. Scott insisted he wanted pancakes and we're making it together. I watched as he cracked four eggs into a bowl. Now it's ready for whisking.
"You know the semester is ending soon right" I said, hoping to catch a conversation. Scott has been too quiet and I'm beginning to think he's still mad about the Jacob incident.
"Of course I'm aware. Aren't I in the school? " he poured the whisked egg into the bowl of floor and then I started mixing it.
"That leads to the second question. Do you know it's less than there weeks to Christmas?" I asked and he chuckled.
"Are you trying to annoy me?"
"Nope!"i set the bowl of mixed flour down and then put the pan on the cooker while Scott added milk to the mixture. I don't know why he insist on using milk all the time. I love mine without milk. But either way, it's still good pancake.
I squeeze my hands tight drawing blood. Scott was strolling to where David and I stood. He had his hand filled with coffee. Coffee from Rose's cafe. He went to see her. He looked sleek in dark jeans and for once, it wasn't ripped at the knee. He was on a plain black shirt and on it, he wore a long jacket that reached to his knees. And I'm well aware that I'm not the only girl staring at him right now.He's mine. I'll be goddamned!When he got to me, he grinned popping his dimples. "I got these for you" He literally pushed the coffee into my hand. All around were some people staring at us. Somehow, he managed to make an entrance. I stared at him and shook my head with a grin. Classic Scott."You went to see Rose? Why?""To ask for blessings" Scott said timidly making Joseph laugh. I hit his arms and he stopped."Really? Blessings? Just yesterday you asked me to move
Kim stared at both of us like she's just seen her greatest nightmare, coupled up with an evil smirk like she was going to unleash all hell on both of us. Walk away Storm. Just walk away. But no. I stood there, challenging her to say one shit to me. I've had enough of her attitude and she always trying to come in between Scott and I. My fist clenched tightly."What are you doing here?" Scott asks her and her eyes flickered from me to Scott as if sending him a signal."Oh so what? She lives here now?" Her wicked mouth spurned. I stayed by Scott, still, waiting."Just leave Kim""Don't you think this is too much? You've gone too far Scott" She scoffed and Scott turned to me looking a bit uneased."Stormy, go up. I'll be there with you soon" He said and my anger flared up. How dare he trie to shut me out on this. And he called me Stormy. Not Strom. That's an un
That's it. This Semester is over. I walked out of literature class with David by my side. He too was grinning. It was a stressful semester. Especially for me. The fight and the quarrels with Scott put me in a bad position. But I'm glad it's all over. I hope it's all over."So what do you plan on doing during the holidays. Going back to Canada?" David asked me. We were headed for the coffee shop to have a last of it for this year before next semester."Nope. My mom is coming over instead" I said and he stopped walking, only to look at me."And she's going to stay with you and Scott in his apartment?""It's our apartment now" I reminded him. "And by the way, Scott seemed pleased about it"David pushed open the door for me to enter to enter the cafe. I smiled at his gentlemanly behaviour."Wow. That doesn't sound like Scott at all but if you say he's ok with it, cool"
The ride back home was quiet and observing. I spent most of the time staring out through the window at the buildings rushing by. Scott too was silent as he drove, his left hand on the steering wheel and the right kept running through his hair in between minutes.We were both waiting for who would break the silence. The conversation or more like heated talk at the coffee shop. The spark between David and Scott has been lingering around for a while now but today, it went off. I was expecting Scott to react more than he did but he didn't. The topic of Anna mellowed him down."Storm" Scotts voice sliced through the silence in the car. I swiveled my head to look at him. He was contemplating something in his head. But what?"Are you mad at me? Please say something""I'm not mad" was my honest reply. I faced the window again."I know you better than that, Storm. Something is bothering you"
I hurried to move off the couch like I was just caught having sex in a garage. But this my house. I and Scotts house and I don't know why his mom choose to show up in the middle of no where but I won't feel intimidated. Scott moved from behind his mom to my side."You didn't tell me you where coming over" He growled in a low displeasing voice. It had me wondering what would've happened if she had walked in on us having sex on the couch. I cringed."I can't visit my own son again?" While she said this her eyes were on me taking in my loose shirt and casual jeans. The woman looked too uptight for a normal visit. Her gown looked like something good she'd bought from a Gucci store. Her rhinestone earring was glittering, casting a different light across the room."A call would have been ok"
With a smile on my face, I exited the room with an angry Scott in the bathroom. He's still brooding about me locking him out of the bathroom so I could shower alone. And then he resulted to saying he's going to send his mom home to Baltimore. He's so rude.I could hear plates clanking in the kitchen and the coffee machine going on and off. On reaching the bottom of the stairs, Grace was in a purple tracksuit and I must say, it is a change from the two times I've seen her.The garden party and last night. She looked someone straight out of a vogue magazine even in simple wear.She dipped her hand into a bowl of berries and turned to me standing in the doorway. A smile stretch on her face."Good morning" I smiled going toward her. I'm not sure the kind of conversation to have with Scott's mom so I just sat down quiet hoping for Scott to come down soon. But knowing Scott, he might choose to seat this one out and brood throughout the day."I'm sure you rested well. Where's Scott?""The bat
Scott's arms go round my waist the minute we step into Escala. The place is filled with halfly dressed females throwing themselves into pools by the sides. Some guys were playing some kind of game with red cups and they throw something into it, but I'm not sure what."Don't wander off ok? Just stay with me" Scott said and I roll me eyes."I should be the one wandering wether you run off or not"His brows squinted as he took me in. My comment also. "What does that mean?""There's the school most famous couple" A voice which I well recognize as Kale, called out. I stared round the group of friends clustered to the ground and chairs. I sought Kim and out and was happy when I saw her sitting on a guy with strawberry pink hair. At least she'd leave Scott alone.She wasn't paying us any attention, just sending glances over at me and Scott, then she smirk. What?!"Though
My hands move to his hair, gripping it. His hands come round my waist, helping me to wrap my legs round his waist as he led us both to his bed. He dropped me on it, standing over me."Your room is nice" I compliment."Not my room anymore. I sold it out." He came back to lie on me. "Didn't need it after we moved in together""Oh"He pressed his lips to my neck in a rush of desire and I found my mind racing to release as I run my hands through his thick long hair. My mouth form an O when he nipped on my clothed breast. He pulled up from the bed and discarded his clothes before doing mine. Both of us naked and needy, we prance at each other like lions after preys. Our mouths fought aggressively to be kissed. Scott bit on my tongue lightly and I felt a little pang of pain accompanied by pleasure.My breast was cupped by Scott's greedy hand, the other holding
