I sat crossed legged on Avan's bed, a deep frown upon my face as I concentrated on absolutely...nothing. But soon a thought came in my head so I just thought about that since the last one was getting me nowhere.
5 mother bleeping hours.
That's how long it took for me to TRY and kiss Avan and every time failing! It was like I'm not allowed to kiss him. Urm excuse me universe, but that's my future boyfriend, so back off with the, keep-me-away-from-Avan-stuff!
I was so desperate that I even let slutty side try, only to fail.
"Hey!" slutty side pouted and crossed her arms. Blankly looking at her I replied "Go cry me a river, why don't you!" then went back to my thoughts.
Every time I get close, something interrupts me and takes Avan away. For example, we (I really mean me) were watching a movie and I made the Move, you know the one the guys use, fake yawn and put your arms around the shoulder thing. But since my arms was too short to reach around Avan, who snickered at me. I effectively shut him up with a punch to the gut.
Yeah that's right, who's laughing now! That ruined the mood so I let that go and tried once more but I was interrupted....again.
It was either the stupid girl scouts selling their stupid cookies, I'm telling it to you straight! Those cookies suck!
I popped a cookie in my mouth, definitely not worth buying, I tilted the box upside down and pouted when I saw it empty, shrugging I opened the next box upon a large pile of many different flavors, all complementary of Avan after much persuasion. "Oh my God these are sooo good!" I moaned in ecstasy.
Yep, definitely not worth buying them.
Anyway back to my original whining about the universe stopping me from kissing Avan, right after the girl scouts, came boy scouts and then the senior scouts (didn't know they existed but hey, I'm not racist)
Then there was the one, where I stepped on Jasper's tail and he attacked me or that one where Devon took Avan (by that, I mean Devon picked Avan up and slung him over his shoulder and walked away, leaving me to kiss the air (-_-) to a room to talk about something, but I do know that Avan came out beet red, I asked him what Devon said but Avan just shook his head and turned even more red.
I made the mistake of asking Devon who clearly explained to me, in detail, different ways to um...you know, try when...yeah I'm gunna stop talking now because my face is turning red at the thought of it.
And so, that's what happened for the next five hours. Who knew kissing Avan was very hard.
I even tried sneaking up on Avan so the universe wouldn't have time to react but they were one step ahead of me as I found out. Unconsciously, I touched my bruises on my arm and ass.
Yeah, they got me good.
While going over my master plan to get my revenge on the universe, I didn't hear Avan enter the room until he spoke right next to me on the bed. Of course me not expecting it, jumped and...Ended on the bed. What, you expected me to fall of the bed didn't you! Ha! Suck on it!
Ciara = 1
You = 0, so get used to that number!
Clearing my throat, I looked to Avan, remembering that awkward moment when I finished bathing and went to go see the family in the kitchen. It was very awkward I must say, you know that time when you walk in some place an everyone just snaps their heads at you and you suddenly feel self-conscious, well...it was nothing like that so get that out of your head. It was somehow a happy but sad moment; I don't understand Avan's family weird way, so I let it go.
"What?" I asked completely blacking out for a minute, Avan groaned next to me. "Ciara will there ever be a time when you will listen to me and I don't have to repeat myself?" he said while annoyance laced in his voice. "No." I told him truthfully, even I had to repeat some stuff to myself coz I wasn't listening, so I know what Avan is feeling right now.
"...so what do you say?" uh oh, shoot I wasn't listening. Argh I hate when people do this to me, two options is one too many!
"Sure" I made it sound confident so it seems like I was listening. "So you would really parade around town in your underwear" ok so that failed, on to Plan B...confess.
"Ok I wasn't listening and I understand if you don't want to repeat the third time" I sheepishly laughed. I was sure Avan rolled his eyes as he searched for my hand, once finding it he entwined them and laid down on the bed.
We sat in silence until I voiced my thoughts, "Avan, the universe hates me" I said seriously but Avan took it in the funny way and laughed. I patiently waited for him to stop and once he did, I flicked him on his nose.
"Ow!" he rubbed his nose while still letting out little chuckles, "Ok I deserved that." I raised my brow suspiciously, Avan agreeing with me on something, looks like I've trained him well hehe. Avan rubbed his hands on my arm comfortably, "Why do you think the universe hates you?" he spoke with amusement shining in his eyes as he sat up. I also heard him mutter 'this otta be good'
Grrr.
"I can't kiss you" Avan choked on air. Rolling my eyes I patted his back until he stopped, "Was that what you were trying to do for the last couple of hours?!" for some reason he sounded surprised. Uh, you'd expect him to get used to this by now but it's good to keep your man on his toes.
"Well yeah, here I'll prove it to you." not letting him reply, I pushed him down on the bed. Grabbing the back of his neck I pulled him towards my face, my lips brushed against his. That's the furthest I've got with him in the past hours of trying, thinking that I could actually kiss him, I closed my eyes and then leaned in.
Finally! I've waited too long for this!
But then I suddenly paused...oh no!
I couldn't move fast enough when, "ACHOOOO!!!" I sneezed in Avan's face, his face scrunched up in disgust as he shut he eyes. Leaning back to look at his contorted face, I mentally snickered but my body heated up in embarrassment.
"Opps" I sheepishly laughed, taking the hem of his shirt, I brought it up to Avan's face and started to wipe away my spit. "But do you see what I mean!" I told him as I sat up and peering at his face to make sure I didn't miss any spit.
"First of all, don't ever try to prove anything to me again," Avan sat up and wiped a hand over his face "Second, I believe you." moments passed and Avan didn't say anything, that’s when I got frustrated.
"Well!" I shouted.
"What do you expect me to do, go against the universe!" he said sarcastically, but I stayed silent.
...Maybe-
"Oh no Kitty! I am not going against the universe!" Avan said sternly, damn him for knowing me so well. "So what am I going to when I want to kiss you" I shyly mumbled, my cheeks burned at the question but I had to know the answer.
Avan smirked, thoughtfully he tapped his chin, "Convince me." frowning in confusion I curiously asked, "What do you mean?"
Avan's grin got bigger as if he had some awesome idea. "Convince me to kiss you"
"What!" I gaped at him, so I must beg him for a kiss, Pftt yeah, like I'm going to stoop that low. "Um you may not-" my slutty side kicked in, she pushed me back and shoved me in the mental cage I made for her. She locked the lock and popped the keys in between her boobs. "But I will, oh and good luck getting the keys." she snickered and flicked her hair over her shoulder, then proceeded to seduce Avan.
My mouth fell opened and stayed opened, "Huh, wha, nah!" I helplessly watched as she, I mean I, argh whatever I'll just say she coz it’s not really me. Slutty me crawled on top of Avan, she slowly caressed his strong jaw and then leaned towards his ear. Avan shivered as she spoke, well more like purred, like a cat on catnip.
"Avan..." I whispered seductively against his ear. Avan gulped, his Adams apple bobbing up and down "Tell me what you want me to do..." Avan was becoming breathless as he gripped my hips and groaned.
I gotta say…I've got some moves.
"Kitty…" his voice sounded strained, "Tell me Avan" my slutty side said more forcefully as she reached behind his head and started to tug at his hair while moving her face to the front, she brushed her lips on his jaw, slowly making her way to his lips. Avan's hands tightened on my hips as I kissed the corner of his lips.
Avan opened his mouth to say something when Devon burst in the room, “That’s it! All this horniness you guys have is getting annoying!” Devon walked up to me and pulled my off Avan, slutty me pouted and crossed her arms.
‘I never have my fun’ she muttered before letting me come out.
‘You and me both, sister’
***
The next morning, I woke up early along with Avan and his family. We were eating breakfast in silence, so I decided to break it.
“Hey, what do you guys do?” I directed my question to Kate and Steve who was silently reading the newspaper. I mean, I noticed for a while they stayed home quite a lot.
The both paused and looked at each other and then Kate dropped her mug.
Dramatically things played out, everyone watched as it fell in slow motion; a high pitched squeal rang out as the mug crashed on the floor, splattering into tiny pieces of glass. We all snapped our heads to Devon, his heads clutching the side of his head, wide eyed, his mouth opened and closed.
“M-my favorite m-mug” he fell to the floor, I swear I could feel the ground vibrate. Crawling on his knees, Devon got to the first piece of glass and tenderly picked it up with shaky hands. His lips wobbled as he slowly looked up at his mum “W-Why?” Devon’s voice cracked.
“Oh sweety…I think you’re big enough to know the truth…” Kate cooed “I broke your mug a long time ago, when you were 8 years old. I just replaced it with another one from Walmart.” Anya, Avan and I snickered at Devon’s shocked face.
Kate patted Devon’s cheek and turned to me “Sorry sweety, what was the question again?” Anya began cleaning up the mess along with a teary Devon.
“Urm, what are your jobs?” I asked curiously.
Kate gasped and Steve stiffened at the question, Kate turned to her husband and hit him on the shoulder “I told you we forgot something!” Kate pushed past everyone, Steve right behind her. They stomped up the stairs where we heard the door slam and then minutes later, I see Kate and Steve putting on formal clothes and rushing out the door.
Ok…what just happened?
“Yeah, that’s what you get for breaking my mug!” Devon yelled as the car pulled out the driveway. Confused, I looked to Avan who was smiling, as if he understood he said “They forgot to go to work over the past couple of weeks” he snickered.
“How do you forget to go to work?” I asked incredulously, that’s actually kind of funny. Eating my cereal, I looked to Anya to see her finishing cleaning “So Anya, how’s Kevin?” I miss the guy, it’s been too long.
Anya froze, “Kevin…Who’s Kevin?” She had a thinking face on as she tried to remember who that was. My brows furrowed, “Kevin…as in your husband.” This sparked something as she swore under her breath,
“Crap, I forgot all about him!” She gasped “I didn’t remember to feed him! Oh no! He’s probably dying right now!” Anya ran to grab her purse and keys, “Lord knows that man can’t take care of himself!” was her final words as she too, drove away.
I blinked twice.
“….And then there were three” I said while looking at Devon and Avan.
Devon snorted angrily “Good riddance, the lot of ‘em” he muttered while shoving his food in his mouth. “Ok well, so much for starting a conversation. So Devon, how’s collage treating you?” I finished my food and put the plate in the sink. I turned my full attention to Devon, only to hear the front door slam close and then another car drive away.
….urm ok, well…
Suddenly, I started laughing, “You know what, t-that was pretty funny!” I giggled as I replayed everything in my head again.
“Ciara.”
“I-I mean, no offence Avan but your family is stupid!” my laughter started to get louder as I clutched my sides.
“Kitty.”
“Who forgets something like that?!” by now I was rolling on the floor.
“Kitty, we have school” My body shot up as I stared disbelieving at Avan. The next thing you know, we got dressed (unlike Devon kekeke) and dashed to the car. Only to see an empty drive way.
“Where’s my car?!” I shouted. Avan groaned and turned his head towards the sky. “We only have 2 cars since Devon gets rides from his friends…” So that would mean that jerk took my car.
Staggering a few steps forward, I fell to my knees and fist pumped the air angrily….
“DAMN YOU DEVON!”
