CHAPTER 9

{That's your secret?}

~LIZ~

I got dressed in my sweater weather outfit. I put on a pair of washed blue boyfriend jeans and blue blouse. Over it I pulled on a white sweater, and matched it with black ankle boots. I wrapped my neck in a black scarf, feeling all warm and comfy. I piled my hair into a messy bun, held tightly with bobby pins. I looked at myself in the mirror. I looked good, but not as good as girls that actually looked good without trying, aka Cara Delevinge.

I went downstairs and sat on one if the stools at the kitchen counter. I texted Thean to text me when he reached the front if the house.

Raven walked into the living room, his hair dripping wet, a towel around his waist. Once he saw me looking at him, he stopped in his tracks and stared at me blankly. Then he shrugged and carried on searching for something.

"Let me guess? You lost your marbles?" I snickered.

"Ha ha, real funny," he retorted. "Have you seen my shirt?"

"Wow. Such a detailed description of your shirt. Oh wait you only own one, don't you?" I asked sarcasm dripping off my answer. He rolled his eyes.

"The one that says you need to STFU and listen," he retorted back, with just as much sarcasm.

"Why don't you just wear a random shirt and look for whichever shirt you're looking for?" I asked, eyeing his oh-so-perfect torso. I looked away heat creeping up my cheeks, once I realized that I was staring at them.

"Double the trouble," he rolled his eyes. A cheeky grin spread on his face. "Why? Do I make the cupcake uncomfortable?"

"No, not at all," I sat up straighter, feeling really, really uncomfortable.

"Oh so you'll be perfectly fine with me doing this?" He asked, dropping his towel. I screamed and shielded my eyes, from a sight that could have scarred me for life. I could feel him walk towards where I was sitting.

"Let me guess? Raging hormones?" He whispered in my ear. It sent chills down my spine. Why? I didn't know I shook my head. "Oh come on, I know you want to take a look," he pestered. I kept my eyes shut. He put his hands on both side of me.

"Don't you dare take one step closer. Take yourself and your junk away from me," I state. He took one step closer and pried my hands away from my eyes. I kept my eyes closed shut.

"Did you really think I would be walking around my house naked?" His voice held a tinge of cheekiness in it. I opened my eyes just a for a second and saw him wearing boxers. I took a wet kitchen towel and whacked his head, which had no impact on him. "I do things to you, don't I?" He smirked, his eyes lingering on my lips.

"My eyes are up here douchebag," I snort. He rolls his fan fiction green eyes.

"Let your imagination run wild my friend," he stood up straight. "Looks like you're headed out somewhere."

"I have a date with Thean remember?"

"Oh yeah. Theanna," he chuckled.

"Hey that's mean!" I shove him playfully, as my phone buzzed, revealing that Thean was waiting for me outside.
