My 'Pick Me Up' from Jace
'TEN HUTS! GIVE ME TEN HUTS!'
'PRRRRRRRRRRT!'
“OH SHOOT!” I scream, waking up from a dream. My hair tangled, my clothes disheveled, and my face clearly sticky from my saliva.
Eww...
I'm hearing my annoying ringtone again...Oh god, why am I keep forgetting to change it!
I got hold of it from my table on the side of my bed where my cute little lamp seats, and answer the call, not bothering to see who's calling.
6:41 am – Fifth Call
Audrey < Jace
“WHAT?!”
“Chill there...” a calm voice of a guy actually calms me, it's Jace. I'm stunned, hearing his voice this early, never like the last time I talk to him, slurring a lot over the line.
“Sorry... what is it now?”
“You remembered what we had talked about last time, do you Audrey?”
“Hmm...” is the only response I could say, feeling the dryness of my throat.
“I'll pick you up at your house...”
“Then where are we going now?” I let out a big yawn, making him chuckle and mumble my name 'Oh Audrey...'
“We're spying someone, so probably wherever he goes...”
“Henry?”
“YEP.” he answers, almost immediately, popping the 'p'.
“What's your pick me up?”
“My what?”
“Your 'Pick Me Up', I mean, what do you like to eat for breakfast to get you up and running?”
“Okay, a weird question, but I'm answering since I don't want to hear any flirty compliments from you. My 'Pick Me Up', would be hot pancakes with strawberry syrup, topped with chocolate chips and whipped cream. Oh! I also like it with cold milk.”
“Well, it seems I got it right.”
“W-What?”
“Your 'Pick Me Up'. I must say, you still look hot when your tired awake on your bed...”
“Why, thank you Jace.” I reply sarcastically, rolling my eyes.
WAIT? I LOOK...
“To your window, sexy.”
“OVER MY F—KING BODY! JACE?!” I backed away from my bed, looking at Jace, on my window, smirking and waving his hands hello. He's been looking at me the whole time?
“How long have you been looking out there?”
“Uh...since you wake up screaming 'Oh Shoot' when your ringtone rang full blast because of my call.”
I had to facepalm myself, embarrasing moment everyone. Seeing Audrey like a zombie 6 in the morning everyone, and my cheeks really sticky out of saliva.
Ugh. Just embarrasing. The worst, a bad boy sees it. Oh man.
“Can I enter?”
“NO!” I quickly protest, realizing that i'm only wearing my pajamas, and my tank tops. Hopefully my blankets did a great job for covering my body from his eyes.
