I opened the cupboard in the kitchen and grabbed the half full bottle of whiskey and poured myself a small glass. I swallowed the liquid and felt the burning sensation down my throat. I poured myself another glass and settled down on the sofa with the bottle on the table. I turned on some tv when I took a look at my phone for the first time since I got home.
9 missed calls
4 from Ingrid, 1 from Mapi, 2 from Lucy, 1 from Keira, and 1 from Alexia. I'm assuming Leah reached out to Keira about what happened earlier. I groaned loudly to myself, not in the mood to talk to any of them.
Me
I'm not answering for a reason, Déjame en paz (Leave me alone).
I sent a message into the groupchat before throwing my phone on the sofa and focusing my attention to the tv. I had almost finished the bottle of whiskey and it had successfully taken my mind off of everything.
I was giggling away to myself at Schitt's Creek when I heard my door being knocked. I couldn't be bothered to move so I shouted out to whoever was at the door.
"Come in!", I called out as I laughed at the tv again.
"Come in? I could be a serial killer, why the hell isn't your door locked?", Leah said as I heard her lock the door. She walked into the living room with an overnight bag which she set on the floor.
"Well are you a serial killer?", I asked as I went to pour the rest of the whiskey in my glass but Leah took them both out of my hands, "wow, hey", I whined as she set them on the table in the kitchen, "buzzkill", I muttered.
"What was that?", she asked as she crossed her arms over her chest.
"Nothing", I muttered as I returned my attention to the tv.
"Want to tell me why you were drinking?", Leah asked as she sat down beside me.
"Thirsty", I mumbled as she let out a sigh. She reached for the remote and turned the tv off as I tried to grab the remote off her.
"Give me the remote, Williamson", I huffed.
"Not until you talk to me"
"We're talking right now aren't we?", I rhetorically asked.
"Stop being a stubborn ass, I know you're pissed at your friends but they weren't trying to upset you", Leah said as I sat back with a huff.
"I know they only ever mean well, I just hate people knowing my business Leah", I mumbled as I played with my fingers, "What exactly did they say to you?"
"Pretty much that you don't express your feelings and they think it has something to do with your parents-"
"Wow, stop, who exactly said this to you?", I said getting defensive.
"Lucy and Keira", she said as I let out a breath, thankful that it wasn't Ingrid and Mapi seeing as they know everything about me.
"I want you to listen to me Leah", I said softly but firmly as she nodded, "this is the last time I want to talk about my parents okay? I don't want you to ask me about them or get me to talk about them", I said.
"Okay, I won't bring them up again", Leah said giving me a small smile as I nodded, "now, I'm gonna make you some coffee and you're going to reply to your friends", Leah said raising a brow at me as she walked into the kitchen. I decided to call Lucy so I could talk to her and Keira. I told them everything was fine but to never talk about my feelings to Leah or my friends again. We talked and joked for a few minutes before Leah walked into the living room with a coffee so I hung up.
"Thanks", I said as I took the mug from her.
"So", Leah said with a smirk on her face making me groan.
"What now?", I whined making her laugh.
"Our little fight earlier, you remember anything?", Leah asked curiously as I furrowed my brows and thought back to when I shouted at her to stop the car so I could get out. I went through it from the start until I figured out what she was talking about and I started to turn extremely red.
"Oh god", I groaned as I set my cup down and buried my face into the sofa. I felt Leah grab my legs and pull me on top of her to straddle her as she pulled my hands away from my face.
"Don't be embarrassed, baby, I liked it", she said leaning forward to kiss my cheek, "but you haven't asked me yet", she teased.
"You haven't asked me yet", I mumbled shyly as she laughed at me.
"Olivia De La Cruz, would you do me the greatest honour and be my girlfriend", Leah said as I rolled my eyes at her dramatics. I smiled at her and leaned forward to connect my lips to hers. I instantly deepened the kiss, pouring all my feelings into it as she gripped my hips a little harder before pulling away.
"Is that a yes? You know I love when you use your words", Leah said lowly making me blush, taking me back to the night of our first time.
"I might need more convincing", I teased as she raised a challenging brow at me. She moved her hands down to my ass, squeezing slightly as she moved her lips to my neck, kissing and sucking lightly making a quiet moan fall from my lips.
"Still need convincing?", Leah mumbled as I let out a breathy laugh.
"No, of course I'll be your girlfriend", I said as I played with the baby hairs on the back of her neck.
"As your girlfriend, it's okay for me to tell you that you reek of whiskey", Leah joked as we both burst out laughing.
"Ass", I groaned as I cuddled into her chest and she wrapped her arms around me.
"Come on", Leah said patting my bum lightly, "you need to sleep this off before training in the morning", Leah said standing up and taking me with her as I just kept my limbs wrapped around her.
