I woke up to something wet on my face, I opens my eyes groggily and saw Archer was literally sleeping on top of me and the wet feeling on my face was in fact his drool.
“Ew, Archer get off me! You drooled on me!” I say and try pushing him off me. He was like a log, still deep in sleep, and heavy as fuck.
I can’t breath dude.
I gave him a wet willy and he groans and rolls off me.
“What are you doing?” Archer says sleepily.
“You drooled on my face, and you were sleeping ontop of me, I couldn’t breath” I shrug.
“Oh. Woops” Archer smiles. His eyes still closed because of the light shining through the room.
I took that chance to run to the bathroom and lock the door since I was completely butt naked, other than wearing my bra and underwear.
“Archer!” I call out for him again.
“What!” Archer groans, I heard his footsteps stop right outside the bathroom door.
“Can I please borrow your clothes? I don’t want to wear the dress again” I say.
After a few minutes the bathroom door opens just a bit so Archers hand could give me his clothes.
It was just a pair of sweatpants and a black hoodie with a red rose in the middle.
Wait. Isn’t this the hoodie that he didn’t want me to take last time I came to his house? This is his favourite hoodie.
I put the clothes on anyways and rolled the waist of the sweatpants up since it was a bit bigger.
I washed my face and brushed my teeth with the spare toothbrush that I had used last time I came here.
I walked out and Archer was wearing grey sweat shorts.
“Hey, isn’t this the hoodie that you didn’t want to give me? Isn’t this your favourite hoodie?” I laugh a bit and sit beside him on the bed instantly playing with his curly hair.
“Yeah, but I think it looks better on you anyways. Plus I’m not giving it to you forever, I’m lending it to you only for today” he smiles.
“Well, that’s only if I give it back” I smile and boop his nose before walking down the stairs.
“What do you want to eat?” Archer asks, following right behind me.
“I don’t mind anything, I’ll just have cereal” I shrug and sit on the high stool near the kitchen island.
“Want some cinnamon toast crunch?” Archer ask peaking his head from the door of the pantry.
“I don’t mind” I nod.
Archer nods and hands me the the box of cereal. I pour myself some in a bowl and then got out the milk from the fridge.
I pour the milk in after and placed the carton on the island for Archer to take some.
And what scared me the most is he reach for the milk first. He reach for the milk before the fucking Cereals.
“What are you doing?” I raise my eyebrows.
Archer looks at me in confusion before pouring the milk in the bowl then adding the cereal.
“I’m eating cereal?” Archer ask in confusion.
“No. No. I know that. But what do you think you’re doing?” I squint my eyes.
“Uh—” Archer looks at me in more confusion.
“Did you just put the milk first?” I ask Looking at him like he grew another head.
This is unacceptable. Who the fuck puts milk first? A psychopath. That’s who.
“Yeah? Is there a problem with that?” Archer asks a small smirk playing on his face.
“Yes! There’s a huge problem, you don’t put the milk first, it’s the cereal that comes first. You only put in the cereal after if you’re going for second helping” I explain
“Well, I like to put my milk first” Archer shrugs and takes a spoon full of the cereal.
I stare at him for a whole minute while he just continues to eat his cereal with a smug look on his face. I shake my head and ate my cereal as well.
“You know I was thinking that maybe we should go on a date, we haven’t really done that in a long time” Archer looks at me once he finished eating his breakfast.
“Yeah sure, when?” I nod my head as well and I place my now empty bowl in the sink along with Archers.
“I was thinking maybe tomorrow?” He asks
“Okay, yeah that’s fine” I nod my head, I then look at the digital clock on the oven and it was already 2.
“It’s 2? I really need to get home, dad might get worried” I say
“Alright, I’ll drop you then” Archer says standing up from the table.
“Hold on, let me go get my shoes and dress” I say before I ran up the long staircase and picked up the dress that was lying on the floor along with my heels. I decided to walk barefoot because I didn’t feel like wearing the heels, I really think I have blisters on the back of my heels.
I walked down the stairs and Archer was already at the door. We both got out of his house and he closed the door shut behind him.
“Where’s your dad?” I ask the house was pretty quite and today is Saturday.
“He sleeps in on Saturdays, and he’s quite a heavy sleeper” Archer laughs
“Ohhh” I smile and nod my head
We got into his car and he drove to my house. On the way there I was checking through all the messages I got. One of them being from my dad.
Dad: Xena, where are you? You said you’ll come home but when I got home you weren’t here?
Dad: Xena
Dad: Xena
Dad: Xena
Dad: Xena
Dad: Sweetheart
Dad: Pumpkin
Dad: Xena
Dad: are you okay?
15 missed calls from Dad
These texts and calls were all from last night. Shoot.
I quickly called my dad up and hear the ring of the phone. It rang for a few second before my dad picked up.
“Xena! Where are you? You said you’ll come home last night but you were not here when I came home. Are you okay?” My dad asks hurriedly.
“Oh gosh, I’m so so so so sorry dad, I didn’t mean to freak you out. I ended up going to Archers house instead and I completely forgot to text you, I’m so sorry. I’ll be home in a few minutes” I ramble
“So you’re with Archer right now?” Dad asks, I heard his let out a breath of relief.
“Yeah, he’s dropping me home. Dad, I’m actually so sorry, I didn’t mean to scare you” I say feeing a bit guilty.
“It’s alright, as long as you’re safe” Dad says before he tells me that Brie and Cam has come over and they were still there.
I then told him I’ll be home in a few minutes before I end the call.
After a few minutes we reached my house and I got out of the car, Archer following suit.
“Wanna come in?” I ask Archer as he watches me get inside the house.
Archer shrugs before walking up to me and gets inside the house too.
“Xena? Oh, hi Archer” Brie says while she pocks her head from the living room.
“Is everything good? Why are you guys here?” I ask them walking into the living room to see Cam laying down on the sofa watching something of the TV while she picks out the marshmallows from my lucky charms.
“Hey! Don’t eat the marshmallows only” I scold while I grab the cereal box from her hand.
Cam just pouts but then her eyes widen before she burst out laughing.
“What?” I ask her in confusion.
“We wanted to know how the gala went… but I’m pretty sure you enjoyed it. Right?” Brie asks a small smirk on her lips.
I turn to Archer looking at him in confusion but he was also trying to hold in a laugh.
“Why are you guys laughing?” I ask in confusion.
“Xena?” My dad walks in to the living room but before I could even respond, Brie pulls me into a hug, shoving my face near her neck. Her back towards my dad.
What is she doing?
“Hey dad” I say, but my voice came out muffled since my face was shoved in Brie’s neck.
“We’ll go up now, Archer you need to come up too” Cam says and we all walk up the steps. I heard my dad walk away before Brie let’s go of me.
“What the fuck are you doing?” I ask in complete confusion.
“We’ll explain inside” Brie says while she holds back a laugh.
Brie and Cam walk into my room, Archer was still behind me.
I walk into the room, Archer following suit and I sit on the bed with Brie and Cam. Archer sitting on a beanbag.
“You have a hickey on your neck, and I wasn’t sure how your dad would react if he saw it” Brie says calmly, Cam just laughing beside her.
“What? Where?” I ask
“Right… Here” Cam says while she guides my finger to where the hickey is.
I walk to my vanity to look at it and sure enough it was there. I cover the hickey with my hand and then to Archer with a glare.
“And you didn’t think it was okay to tell me?” I say
“I actually didn’t even notice until we got here. I swear” Archer raises his hands in surrender.
I walk back to the bed and Brie and Cam were laughing, I even saw a few tears come out from Brie’s eyes.
It’s not even that funny.
“Stop laughing” I smile, Cams laugh can be contagious, because if she’s laughing over something really funny she’ll start wheezing. Which just makes me start laughing.
I grab onto a pillow and I smack Brie and Cam in the face with it.
We hung out for some time before Archer said he was leaving. Brie and Cam were still here.
“Now that he’s gone. Tell us all the details” Brie smirks
“What? No!” I laugh.
“But was it good?” Cam asks a smile on her face.
“Stop” I look at both of them with a serious face.
“Fine don’t tell us.” Brie sighs before she asks if we can watch a movie.
We all sit close on the bed and we ended up watching Coco.
After around 2 hours Brie and Cam both left. I looked at the time and it was around 8.
I walk down the stairs with my hood on to hide the mark on my neck. I then see dad sitting on the sofa watching something on the tv.
“How was the gala?” My dad asks, as if sensing me behind him.
I walk around the sofa and sat beside him.
“It was fun” I nod my head
“Oh. Dad, is it okay if I go on a date with Archer tomorrow?” I ask
“Sure sweetheart, why ask” my dad nods his head. I thank him before we both watched whatever he was watching.
Around an hour later we decided to go to bed since it was already 9.
We walk up to our own rooms and I shut my room door. I got ready for bed before my phone dinged, indicating I got a text.
Archer: I’ll pick you up at 6. Is that okay?
Me: yeah sure, where will we go?
Archer: you’ll find out tomorrow, don’t worry 😉
I shut off my phone before I lay in bed waiting for sleep to take over me.
Not going to lie, I kind of wish Archer was sleeping beside me right now because he’s a really nice person to cuddle with. He’s like a teddy bear. But a very hot and muscular one.
And with that thought on my mind, sleep took over me.
