Fake It

16. Don't Call Her Princess

Amanda's POV

A mixture of memories and anger overcame me completely. Who gave him the right to enter my house as if we were friends? I got out and snuggled the door so that Lilo couldn't see him. Why? Because she has been asking for him since we broke up, and it seemed she had forgotten about Levi these past months.

His lips trembled in an insecure smile when he saw me, and put his hands that were slightly trembling, into his jean's pockets. At least I wasn't the only one shocked.

"What are you doing here?" I asked him folding my arms. Levi shifted his weight from one foot to the other and replied without meeting my eyes.

"I just wanted to thank you for last night."

"You could have called instead of coming. She can't see you here." I added in a lower voice. Levi just rolled his eyes and got closer.

"Relax, we are friends remember? I saved your ass in the red carpet the other day, you should be grateful. Now that I remember, you didn't even pay me for my services." He added with a smirk.

"Well I saved your ass last night, so we are even. We aren't friends. You better than anyone knows that we can't be friends. People shouldn't see us together. You know what happens with paps around, I have a boyfriend now. " I replied out of breath.

Why was he making it so difficult? We had ignored each other perfectly this past year, until I went to his lame birthday party and since then, he has been hovering around. And I don't believe that bullshit that he cares about me, not a single bit. He actually never cared about me, or else he wouldn't have left me alone when I needed him the most.

"Yeah, and I don't see you in love." Levi muttered under his breath. I drew back hastily, clearly impressed by what he'd said.

"What do you now about love, huh?" I pointed a finger at him, "Just look at you Levi! You are a walking mess, you are barely scraping through exams, and you have been in jail more times than I can remember." I lowered my voice after realizing I've been yelling.

I looked around just in case anyone would be watching us but luckily for me, the neighborhood was desolated at this time of the year. One of the perks of living in the Manhattan Beach Hill Section, was that everybody would be travelling around Europe, spending their millions.

"And let's don't even touch the subject about your drinking. Of course I love Dimitri. How couldn't I? He is the perfect guy!"

Why was this happening? Why today? When I haven't got proper sleep nor eaten anything the whole day. God must hate me. Yep, that's the only reasonable explanation. Where are you Dimitri?!

"Oh, Amanda. I know you," He started half-smiling. "I know you aren't in love with him. You don't even look at him the same way you did with me."

"Don't be so full of yourself." I sneered, fixing my floral skirt. "I never loved you Levi, I could never love someone like you."

His ocean eyes glared at me with a fire I hadn't seen in years.

"Are you sure? Look at me Amanda, are you sure you never loved me?" He asked getting closer. "What made you change your decision about having a public relationship? You have been dating for what? Two months? We dated for almost two years and under no circumstances cleared us to the media."

"I wouldn't regard sleeping around as dating. Besides I don't even know why we are talking about this. You have to go, if someone sees you here, the paps will haunt me again. And Lilo-"

But of course, I had the worst luck in the entire world. Because the door flew out open with the little minion interrupting us, with his high pitched voice screaming out of joy.

"LEWII, LEWIIII. AmAm, is Lewii!" Lilo was jumping up and down with the biggest smile on her face, and Levi... Well, he was clutched with his big arms opened, waiting to engulf my sister in a big hug.

"You have grown so much, Princess." Blondie muttered, kissing her temple. I cleared my throat and his eyes met mine with sadness. He didn't want to let her go, and she seemed to feel the same, due to the fact that Levi had her tiny arms around her neck, holding him tight.

"Is not good for her, you know? Haven't you thought about that?" I whispered to him.

His smile faded away slowly, giving way to a scowl. Levi let go of Lilo and stood up, fixing his black jacket.

"Lilo, why don't you go and play with your dolls for a while? I'll go in a minute." I encouraged her, but my sister was debating whether to let go of his hand or not.

"Go on Princess, do what AmAm says." He said with a winning smile that finally convinced her.

"Stop calling her like that." I snapped, frustration taking over me. "You should go."

But Blondie pitched forward without saying a word. His lean figure was making it hard to focus on my anger towards him. Even more now than ever, after seeing him interact with Lilo like that, like if the last two years had vanished in the blink of an eye. I hadn't even realized I was walking backwards until my back hit the wall.

"Trust me Amada, I have to do this."

All right Amanda, what is going on here? Why is the fuckboy so close? And why aren't you stopping him from getting any closer. What are you doing? Oh my God, focus. DO SOMETHING.

Let's just say that I wasn't prepared for his arms wrapped around my waist, bringing me closer to his chest and holding me tight. No, I wasn't fucking ready to feel his warmth mixture of cigarettes, cheap whiskey and ocean. And I wasn'texpecting it to feel that good.

He is fucking hugging you, what are you supposed to do Amanda? Grab his butt? No, you can do that with Dimitri. Do I hug him back? Do I punch him? Do I-

"Okay, you can let go of my girlfriend now."
