You're My Girl // COMPLETED

chapter 6

Eirin's POV

"Hey, ready to get this party started?" Dante says behind me.

"Um..."

Sure I guess.

"Come on. Wanna dance?" Dante states.

"I have to go and look for Eli. Sorry."

"It's okay. He is your date, see you later?"

I nod and then go over to Eli.

He is laughing along with some dudes that I can only assume are his friends.

"Hey, Angel." He says, snaking his arm around my waist, pulling me to him.

We are acting like a couple I swear.

I look up at Eli's smiling face, watching as his eyes lit up everytime his grip on me tightened.

"I'm boreeeeed," I whine.

He laughs, "What do you wanna do?"

"Be anywhere but this party..." I whimper.

"Ok, let me say goodbye to the guys. Here, go warm up the car." He hands me his keys.

My eyes are wide. "You are letting me have your keys?" I ask, shocked.

"Sure... Just don't leave without me please." He teases.

I nod, leaving the party and walking to the car.

He has a nice two-door 2016 gray Mustang.

I get in the drivers, starting the car and turning on the heater.

I wait about five minutes before Eli comes and joins me in the car.

He takes the passenger's seat.

"Whatcha doing?" I ask.

"I'm tired, can you drive us home?" He looks at me with a pout.

He is so lucky we renewed my license on Wednesday.

"Yeah," I say, closing my car door and buckling up.

I back out of our spot, heading the direction we came.

He is snoring in the seat next to me.

Cutie.

When we get to a stop light, I plug in my phone to the aux, putting on my pandora.

"Chasing Cars" By Snow Patrol comes on.

"If I just lay here, would you lie with me, and just forget the world..." I sing along softly.

I drive into our street, slowly coming to a stop in between Eli and my house.

"Eli, come on" I slowly say, rubbing his shoulder with my hand.

"Coming..." He says, sitting up and stretching. 

I shut off the car, handing him the keys.

"Will you stay at my house?" He asks.

HUH?

"Tonight?" I softly reply.

He nods.

"Ok...sure?" I suppose it's not too bad.

He gets out of the car, walking to his house, with me in tow.

"Wait, I need to get clothes," I say.

"Just come here, I'll give you something."

"Ok..." I follow him into the house.

We go to his room, him shutting the door behind him.

"Here," he tosses me one of his shirts.

"Um..." I say.

"Just put it on, I'll be right back, I'm showering." He says, disappearing into his bathroom.

I do as told, putting on his shirt that is literally 3x my size.

It looks like a dress on me.

After ten minutes, Eli comes out and smiles at me.

"That looks like a dress on you..." He laughs.

"Shut up. Can we go to bed now?" I say.

He chuckles, nodding his head.

"You can sleep on the bed, I'll sleep on the floor."

My eyes widen.

"You can have your own bed you know..." I state.

"No, that'd be rude. I will sleep on the floor."

He lets me lay down on the bed, him putting the covers over my shivering body.

Why am I cold?

I don't know.

"Goodnight, Angel." He says, kissing my forehead.

"Goodnight."

~.~

I wake up, seeing the bright light that is the sun.

Eli is passed out on the floor, his arms tightly holding onto a pillow.

Awww

I take out my phone, looking at the time.

7:31 am.

Shit.

I tip toe out of bed.

"I know you're awake." Eli grumbles.

"Ok..."

"Do you need to get home?" He asks, standing up.

"Yeah..but I don't wanna go home."

"Then don't,"

"I will get in a lot of trouble if I don't leave now."

I change into my clothes when realizing,

Eli is behind me.

I turn around, with my jeans on, without my top.

His eyes are wide.

"Welp, so much for hiding my body." I groan.

"Why would you wanna hide it?" He says.

The his eyes land on my hips, covered in scars.

The crop top doesn't show much of my sides.

"What is that?" He asks me, pointing to a word that was cut into my side.

"Something I can tell another time." Stone cold voice.

That's what I sound like sometimes.

"Come on... I'll help you to your room."

I nod and we open the window, him helping me to my house.

I open my window, jumping in.

"Seeya, Eli." I say, not looking at him.

I close my window and curtains, making sure he can't see me.

I dress down, to be in only short-shorts and a tank top.

I brush my hair, putting it in a messy bun.

I lay on my bed, hugging my teddy bear.

I miss Max.

And his sister.

I miss my best friends.
