Chapter 26: Change of Plans, and Hats

You know those moments when you had finally, finally fallen asleep after a long time of trying to fall asleep but you couldn't, so once you did fall asleep, your content? Yeah, well I was finally able to keep my eyes closed after a long time of tossing a turning, when suddenly, I felt a big, heavy weight land on top of me, pressing me down into the mattress, making me feel super claustrophobic. My eyes shot open, and my head whipped up to meet an outline of someone's head who was currently grinning like a maniac. I squinted my eyes, knowing exactly who it was, I mean come on, anyone could recognize Colton's stupid little trademark grin he always wears on his face.

Confused, I looked at the clock and it read 1:47 am, are you kidding me!? I frowned and said

"Colton, what the hell do you think your doing, it's 1:47 in the freaking morning!"

His face didn't twitch once at my attempt of being harsh on him, then he replied with

"Well, I couldn't sleep."

I rolled my eyes and said

"So, just because you couldn't sleep, you had to come in here and disturb my beauty sleep, thanks Colton."

"No problem Shorty, it's my job to ruin your beauty sleep."

After about a minute of me just trying to glare at him, I finally said

"Well, if your going to stay in my room, could you at least move your fat ass off of me, I'm starting to loose feeling in my legs, jeez how much do you weigh, a ton?"

Instead of replying, he just laughed, and boy did it sound like sweet music to my ears. His laugh is overall perfection, and I wanted to listen to it on replay forever. He rolled off of me, and just laid down next to me on my ginormous bed, then wrapped a tight arm around my waist, pulling me closer to him so I was cuddled against him with my head resting comfortably on his toned chest. I just listened to his heart beating for a few minutes, until I said

"Colton?"

"Mhmm?"

I began drawing small circles with my finger on his stomach, just to give myself something to do while I contemplated asking him this question, then I finally said

"Um..remember that night when Chris did those bad things to me?"

I immediately felt him tense, and his strong hold on me got even stronger than before. He didn't reply, so I continued and said

"Well, I'm just curious about him. I don't really see him at school that much, and when I do, he avoids me at all costs, did you do something to him that I don't know about?"

I swear, five minutes had to of passed, and I actually thought that he might of fallen asleep, until in barely a whisper, he said

"I'm not going to lie to you and say I didn't do anything to him, but I'm only going to tell you that he got what he deserved, he's an asshole and deserved to be treated as one."

I just nodded my head, not wanting to elaborate anymore about the topic. After another moment of silence, Colton suddenly said

"Tomorrow after school, we are not going to be coming back to the house."

Even though Colton couldn't see me, I raised my eyebrows and said

"Why not?"

"Because we are going to go on our first date."

I felt my cheeks heat up slightly, even though I have no idea why. It's been almost a whole week since Colton and I had 'been together,' and yes, I use quotations because we have tried to keep it a secret this whole time. We decided to keep it on the down low until we pick a time to tell everyone were together, which I'm ok with, I just don't want to keep it on the down low for too much longer, it's kind of annoying having to sneak around everyone, but oh well. Anyways, I replied with a simple
