Andrew

I was scrolling through social media for a while when I heard a ringtone. I stood up from the couch and began to trace the sound. Leaving my room, I finally found out that it was coming from Brianna's room. I carefully went in careful not to wake Brianna up.

Finally, I found out that it was coming from Blake's purse. Silly girl left her purse in the kid's room.

I opened up her purse, took out her phone and saw that it was her mom that calling. Dear God.

After a while of hesitation, I finally answered her phone.

" Hello Blake" I could hear her mom's voice from the other end of the line.

" Uhmm.... This is Andrew,Mrs Styles" I politely replied.

" Oh hello, Andrew, what about Blake ?" She asked.

" Uhmm... She kind of fell asleep with all the babysitting" I told her.

" She's asleep?"

" Yes ma'am, don't worry she's okay, I can wake her up if you want me to" I told her.

" It's okay, I trust you, I was just calling to check up on her but since she's asleep, then it's no problem cause besides she's been lacking sleep for a while now" she said.

" Really?" I asked.

" Yeah" she answered. " Anyways, I've got to go now, lots of work awaits for me"

" Alright, bye Mrs Styles"

" Bye" she said then ended the call.

I kept her phone back into her purse then walked back into my room where the sleeping beauty was already awoken.

" Glad you're awake, my princess" I laughed.

" Did I fall asleep?" She asked, still feeling a bit sleepy.

" Oh you did, and I had to carry you all the way up here" I said.

" I thought I heard my phone ring" she said.

" Yeah, your mom called"

" What? What'd she say?" She asked panickly.

" Relax, she just called to check on you and I told her you were asleep"

" Oh... okay" she relaxed a bit then smiled.

" Is Brianna awake?" She asked.

" Not yet" I said.

" Oh okay" she nodded. After a moment, I heard her stomach growl and by the way she looked, she appeared a bit embarrassed.

" I'm sorry about tha.."

" It's okay, come on, I know you're hungry, right?" I asked and she nodded.

" Alright then, I guess I'll make you then"  I told her. I held out her hand for me to take and the sleepy girl took it then stood up. She stumbled a bit but I was swift enough to catch her.

" Thanks" she thanked me.

" I guess you're still sleepy, come on" I told her then carried her bridal style.

" Thanks again" she mumbled into my chest which made me smile without her noticing.

I carried her out of my room, walked all the way down to the kitchen where I placed her carefully on one of the stools.

Immediately, I got to work and at the end, I ended up making sandwiches for her. I looked over at Blake and saw her playing with her fingers.

" Here you go" I passed the plate of sandwiches over to her.

" Thank you, Andrew" she thanked me.

" You're welcome, Blake" I smiled back at her.

After a while, I finished up with the sandwiches. Who knew Andrew could make food? I chuckled a bit then stood up from the stool and placed my plate in the sink then washed it immediately. After that, I walked over to the sitting room.

" Uhmm...what's the time?" I asked him.

" 7:30 pm, why?" He asked.

" Ah geez, it's time I go home" I told him.

" Awww, I was kinda enjoying your company" he whined.

" Well, school's tomorrow and I have to get prepared for school and also for a test" I said. " By the way, are my clothes dried up yet?" I asked.

" I guess they should be, lemme bring them for you" he said, going upstairs with me following him behind.

He gave me back my dried clothes and immediately, I got changed in them but the sweet smell of his cologne didn't leave my body and I smiled to it.

I put my hair in place, grabbed my purse and walked out of his room.

" I guess I should call the driver" I sighed, bringing out my phone but Andrew stopped me.

" Actually, I was thinking of dropping you off at your house" he told me.

" I don't wanna stress you" I said.

" I insist, Blake" he said and later on, I agreed.

We woke a sleeping Brianna up then Andrew carried her all the way down to the car outside. He placed her in the back seat then helped me out with the passenger door.

" Thank you" I smiled then got in. Then he jogged over to the driver's side, got in and before you know it, we were out of the driveway.

He pulled up in front of my house and immediately, the both of us got out and walked towards each other.

" Thanks for helping me babysit, Brianna" he thanked me.

" No need to thank me, just helping out a friend" I shrugged and I could notice his expression change a bit then back to a happy face.

" So till tomorrow?"

" Yep" I nodded.

Before I went in, he pulled me in for a hug.

" Goodnight, Blake" he said as we pulled away from each other
