~Chapter 15: The Aftermath~
~Cam’s POV~
“Dude, why are you wearing a skirt?” Tyler asked.
Whoa. That was unexpected. He’d go around missing for a whole day and then he’ll magically pop up from an old vent and appear in a skirt. That damn Carter...
“Sheesh, Root beer!” Tyler said as he pulled up Carter in a tight bear hug. “Don’t you ever go missing again!”
“Gahh... Tyler! You’re strangling me!” he said as he pretended to gag.
“Tell me about it. I’m starting to think you ran away.” Liam said as he put an arm on Carter’s waist.
“Oh no mister, I got enough contact from you for a while.”
“Why? It’s not like we’ve even had s—”
“Okay, that’s enough for my ears you pervert.” Tyler said as he pulled Carter away from him.
“Well who knew? You were there all along!” Rose said a little too innocently. “I better get to my post now. Curfews gentlemen! Curfews!” she said as she stormed past us.
“Okay? Why’s she so jittery?” Tyler asked.
“Beats me.” Liam shrugged. “All I wanna know is why this sexy little minx over here is displaying those killer legs.”
“Shut up Liam.” Carter grumbled as he met my eyes. He suddenly became all tense and shifted uncomfortably under Tyler’s arms.
“So, where have you been?” I said with a raised brow.
“And why are you wearing a skirt?” Liam pushed.
“Well, yeah, I wanna know about that too.” Tyler added in curiosity.
“Ugh, one question at a time guys!” he said with obvious frustration.
“Fine, then answer the most important one first. Do you even know how hard it was to look for you? Sheesh Carter!”
“Okay okay! I’m sorry!” he said, flushing a dangerous red.
“Hey are you okay?” Jace said, walking over to him. “You look like you’re gonna faint.”
“No, I’m fine. I just need some water. Still have a hangover that’s all.”
“Here.” Jace said, handing him a water bottle from his pocket. What the heck? Who carries a water bottle in his pocket?
“Thanks.” He said before gobbling down the whole bottle. “All better now.” He smiled.
“You sure?” Jace prompted.
“Yeah. Thanks for taking care of me last night. I’m sorry I disappeared when you came back...”
“Yup. You sure need to do some explaining on that.” I said.
“And about the skirt.” Liam added.
Carter just shot Liam one of his funny attempts at being threatening. Of course, I hid the laughter in my throat cause I was trying to be serious... well hell, I was serious... and I wanted some answers.
“Fine! I wore a skirt cause I uhmm... I sleep walked.”
“And you ended up in a skirt?” I asked incredulously.
“Well. Guess I better leave. My job here is done.” Jace said cutting of what Carter was supposed to say.
“Aww, leaving already?” Tyler said. “Well, thanks man, wouldn’t have found Root beer without ya. Maybe we could shoot some hoops sometime?”
“Uhm, yeah sure.” He said nonchalantly.
“You could get dinner with us.” Carter asked him.
“Still got some work to do. Maybe next time.”
“Okay.” Carter smiled. “I’ll take your word.”
“Thanks mate.” Liam waved him off.
“Yeah, thanks for helping us look for this trouble maker over here.” I eyed him.
“Yeah sure.” He shrugged as he walked away.
What’s up with that guy? Why does he seem so surprised? Did I say anything wrong? Huh. Weird dude. Anyway, back to the mess my psychotic roommate made.
“You were saying?”
“Sheesh, you could at least let me sit down.” He rolled his eyes. “It’s freaking freezing out here.”
“Well it’s not my fault you’re wearing a skirt.”
“Let’s just get out of here.”
“Here take my hoodie and wrap it around your legs or something.” Tyler offered.
“At least someone cares.” He said faintly before heading down the stairs.
Are you freaking kidding me? Was that directed at me? What was that even supposed to mean? At least someone cares? C’mon! I’ve been searching like crap for him the whole day! Besides, I covered up for him after his drunk-a-thon at that party. And now he’s telling me I’m heartless? You’ve got to be kidding me.
“I didn’t know you sleep walked.” Liam asked.
“Well, that makes both of us. Funny thing is, I woke up this afternoon near Julienne Bourbon’s with nothing but my boxers on. I took the first thing I could use to cover myself up and ran. Then I guess I passed out or something then I probably sleep walked again and ended up here.” he said a little too quickly.
“No shit? That’s pretty messed up Root beer. Guess you better tie him up next time you sleep Cam.” Tyler joked.
“Or you I could just volunteer to watch over him.” Liam winked.
“What, and risk getting skindleblobbered by you? No thank you.”
“Skin-d-what?” the three of us asked incredulously at the same time.
“Whatever. You know what I mean.”
Skindleblobbered? Really? That’s not even a word. Sometimes I wonder if he’s really mentally deranged or something. Guess I’ll never get used to that unusual “humor” of his. Either way, I guess we’ll call it a day. I’ll do some guilt-tripping later. “Let’s go eat.”
~Carter’s POV~
“Well, good night guys. And I’m sorry I worried you again. Won’t happen again.”
“You better be sure.” Tyler teased as he ruffled my hair.
“Promise.”
“Okay. See you tomorrow babe.” Liam winked as he stole a kiss on my lips before running of like a delinquent.
“Liaaammm!”
“It always gets better than the last time Cowboy!” he winked as he backpedalled away from me.
“Hey, hey, where’s mine?” Tyler said as he flashed me a cocky grin.
“Ugh, whatever Tyler, go to bed.”
“Awww, so your kisses are only for Liam huh?” he pouted as he looked down. “Fine, see you tomorrow guys.”
Whoa, wait. Was he serious? No freaking wayyyyy. Looking at Tyler’s sullen expression, I think he’s partly serious... but he’s gotta be joking right? I mean, he looks cute and all with his dimples and that kinda scruffy way his blonde hair looks with those eyes...
“Ughh! Okay, okay, stop the pouting.” I sighed as I rolled my eyes.
“What?”
“But only cause you went out of your way to look for me.” I said as I tiptoed to give him a slight peck on the cheek.
He then smiled a genuine one that showed his dimples in the cutest way possible. Caressing the part I just kissed, Tyler walked away as he said good night to Cam and me.
“Sorry about all that... that... delay.”
“Whatever, I’m just tired and I wanna go to sleep.” Cam said as he stepped in the room.
“You’re still mad aren’t you? Look, I’m sorry okay? I gue—”
“I didn’t say I was mad.” He cut me off.
“Then what’s wrong?”
“Nothing’s wrong okay? I’m just tired. We’ve been looking for you the whole day for crying out loud.” He said as he jumped on his bed.
“I don’t know how many times you expect me to apologize!” I yelled in exasperation.
“I never said that!”
“Then why are you making me feel guilty?!?”
“I’m not!”
“Fine!”
“Fine!” He repeated as he covered his face with a pillow.
“Fine!” I yelled again, not really wanting him to say the last words.
I then headed for the bathroom and slammed the door shut. After doing some deep breathing exercises for about a minute or so, I remembered I left the clothes I was gonna change into since I was still wearing the skirt. How was I able to eat with no one seeing me? Well, it was late enough that only the people fixing the Caff were there. Liam was smooth enough to convince them to let us eat before they closed.
Reluctantly, I stepped out of the room and stomped to my closet to grab a few things. Cam didn’t seem to mind at all. Oh yeah, I’m soooo looking forward to having my bed shipped over! I then headed back and took a cold shower to cool off.
What’s up with Cam being all cranky and stuff? I mean, I knew it was my fault that I drank too much, but I did admit my mistake and I was really, really, reaaaalllyyy sorry for it! C’mon! I’m already beating myself up for it! So now he tells me nothing’s wrong but he goes around acting like a kid. Gahhh. Guys are so complicated!
I let the cold water wash off my stress and let my relaxing lavender body wash take the rest of the hangover off. After about a good thirty minutes, I finally calmed down. Okay.
So maybe I was a little too hard on Cam... I mean, he did look for me after all... It was definitely out of character... what with all my arguing, it’s definitely not me. I guess I better go apologize. I had no right to get mad at him even if he was being so hard to deal with.
Putting on some of my cocoa butter lotion, an oversized shirt, my LSP boxer shorts (yeah, I totally dig her haha), and some soccer socks. Slowly, I walked over to the bed and poked his foot.
“What?” he said, while his face was still covered with the pillow.
“You can use the bathroom now.” I said in a lame attempt at starting a conversation.
“I’ll take a bath tomorrow.”
“Well you could at least take of your jeans, I know a certain someone who doesn’t like the feeling of jeans on a silk sheet.” I laughed.
“Fine. Take them off.” He grumbled. “Too tired.”
Okay? Is he out of his mind? OH. MY. GLOB. “You serious?”
“Duh. Just pop the button and pull it down genius.” He said with his head under the pillow.
Oh glob. Oh glob. Oh glob. Okay, calm down. This is utterly normal. Guys help each other out right? They undress each other when they’re tired, right? Right? Left? Oh fudge. Taking a deep breath, I closed my eyes and fiddled with the button on his jeans. Okay, okay.
Plop. Said the button. Whew.
Okay. Now the zipper. Stealthily, I used my ninja skills to pull it down without touching anything but the slider. Yup, it’s the thing you use to pull the zipper up and down. Lol. After doing that, I quickly yanked the whole thing down to finish my ordeal.
“Whoa!” Cam said as he jumped up.
“Whaaaaaa!” I yelped as I jumped up along with him. “What’s wrong?!? Is there centipede somewhere?!? Kill it! Killl iiiitttttt!!!”
“What? There’s no freaking centipede dude!” He said as he covered his crotch area with the pillow.
“Then why did you scream?” I said, trying to catch my breath.
“First of all, I didn’t scream. That was you remember?” He said as he raised a brow. “You pulled, well, yanked my jeans down along with boxers.”
“Oh...” I said as my eyes met the pillow he was now removing. Oh crap! Think fast! “I’m sorry! I had my eyes closed will I was pulling it down!”
“Why?” he asked as he pulled his boxers up. Whew. I looked away just in time!
“Cause I don’t want you to think like I’m some sort of pervert or anything.”
“Wait. Is that LSP?” he said incredulously as he removed his shirt.
I looked down my boxers and crossed my arms defensively. “Yeah, you got a problem with that?”
“Lol. No. That’s just funny.” He chuckled as he jumped back on the bed.
“Hey! LSP is one of the funniest characters on Adventure Time you know?”
“More like the lumpiest.” He laughed again.
“That didn’t even make any sense.”
“Ugh, whatever dude, you’re the weirdest person I know.”
“Likewise.” I said snootily.
“Just get in the bed.” Cam rolled his eyes.
I did as he said end lay a good distance from him. I was actually starting to get a good at sleeping from the farther side of the bed without falling.
“Hey, I’m sorry I argued with you earlier. It was definitely unlike me. Sorry.”
“Psh, that was nothing. Just go to sleep, you’re too noisy Carter.” He whined.
“I’ll make it up to you!”
“Make it up to me by going to sleep.”
“Fine, fine.” I said as I giggled a bit. “Night!”
Project Cam, begin!
