Callie's pov
I wake up with a terrible headache, my hangover is killing me, how did I get home? I sit up on my bed trying to recall last night's events, looking over to Chloe's side of the room to see if she can help, unfortunately she's not awake. I will take her.. Who said that? my mind is trying really hard to bring the pieces of yesterday together but I still don't recall much
Carly, are you okay?
Only Adrien calls me that, did he bring me back? I can't piece them together but I get up anyway, my shoes are off, if Adrien dropped me did he help me undress? I flush at the thought, reaching for the water I usually keep beside my bed, it's empty
Finish it..
My mind flashes back, it sounds like him, it's definitely him, Awn he really took care of me, I should thank him-
Thanks for dropping me get out..
What?! I definitely didn't say that, did I? Oh my God i must have yelled at him when he was trying to help me, what have I done, I get up heading for the door.
You you you how can you not know I like you..
Shit, I drop on the floor, what have I done, he might ignore me from now on, maybe not want to be associated with me, I pull at my hair in frustration, what have I done? I bang my head on the door silently loathing myself for getting wasted.
"Callie are you okay?" chloe asks, I must have woken her up with my head banging, "oh my God I'm sorry for waking you up" I tell her "it's cool, but are you okay?" she asks again, concern clear in her voice "Yh I am fine- wait one quick question- who dropped me off last night?" I ask not wanting my fear to be confirmed. "oh, Adrien did" she says. Shit. "did you do something wrong?" she laughs, I bite my cheek before nodding. "come over here" she says gesturing to her bed, I stand from the floor going to her bed, we both sit on her bed "do you want pizza?I'm starving" she asks and I nod again, she takes her phone from the beside table and orders two large packs for me and her, I thought we were going to share a pack. She hangs up and turns her attention to me "you ready to talk?" she asks dropping her phone to let me know i have her full attention. I tell her all the parts I remember trying my best to not break down, what the heck have I done "chill out girl, don't beat yourself up for it, he probably didn't notice, na let me say it your way, he Prolly didn't hear you" she says trying to make me smile "you were right it's cool to say" she smiles which makes me giggle, she's really a nice friend, what have I done to deserve all the people around me who really understand me? She's Prolly right tho, maybe he didn't hear or he will Prolly just ignore it right? I can't over think this. What's the time, I check Chloe's phone its twelve o'clock, I should be home in three hours Theo would be back in the evening. Who's picking him from the airport?, I would love to do that, I and Chloe talk for a while, I stand to go to my bed to message theo, there is a message from Adrien *how was your night, get rid of your hangover with a hot bath and soup* the message reads,
see nothing to worry about my sub says, I guess she's right I've nothing to worry about. *thanks for dropping me off last night, I really appreciate* I Reply *no problem* he replies immediately. I message theo wanting to know the time he will be at the airport so I could pick him up *mom said she will pick me up, I wasn't thrilled with the idea so please come before her I will be at the airport by six* he replies, I smile, my brother really reminds me of me but the opposite sex of me, he Prolly told mom he will be back by seven just in case she insists on picking him *copy that, will see you there xoxo* I reply before dropping my phone. I have to plan my week if I want it to go my way, I bring out my planner and start writing everything I want to do, there is a knock at the door maybe the pizza , chloe stands to get it, She closes the door after the delivery guy leaves. "what should we do eat a pack each or share a pack?" she asks. "it's not like they are different toppings right?" I ask "they are, one is pepperoni which I like the other is chicken and cheese which you love" she says smiling widely, Awn isn't she sweet? I didn't even hear her ordering different toppings I guess I was lost in thought as usual my sub snorts, give me a brake. I decide on each of us having a pack but mixing it so we both have the same things, as usual she likes the idea and we split everything to be equal then we both take a pack to our selves, the chicken topping and cheese topping is really my favorite she knows me well followed by the roni (how I say pepperoni) we both enjoy eating our breakfast and talk in between bites of what she would do when I'm not around, I tell her she can come with it, but she says she's not ready to met my mom, she says something about throwing up and we both laugh, it will be nice if she actually could come with me, I would love for my mum and theo to know her in advance. "you know valentine is in a week and some days right?" Chloe says poking me, Yh I know but I really don't care I don't have a vow anyway, maybe I could get Chloe and neho something at least. "oh" I say, she laughs and keeps talking, she finally changes the topic and she's really going on about Zayn. She really does like him. We talk and gist for like an hour, I check my phone and I see the time it's 1:20, the drive home then to the airport will be at least two hours that's if there is no traffic hopefully, so I should leave school by three o'clock, I tell Chloe my plans *can you come and pick me up around three o'clock* I text Adrien, he said he was also going home so he offered to drop me off. He replies a while later *OK cool* he replies *did you get rid of your hangover* he adds, *Yh, sure thanks* I reply and drop the phone, what should I take home with me? I would be home for just today and half of tomorrow anyway I don't need much "um, Callie" Chloe says after she hangs up the phone, she was on the phone before I spoke to Adrien, she looks terrified, shit what happened, I jump out of my bed to hers "whats wrong, did Jeff disturb you again?" I ask, she shakes her head thinking of how to say whatever happened to her. "Zayn..Zayn.." she stammers, "did something happen to Zayn? is he sick? did he have an accident?" she shakes her head to all my questions, "then what the hell happened?" I ask her getting a little to pumped"he invited me for dinner with his parents" she says terrified . The fuck if she isn't the cutest girl ever I don't know who is, for a moment I actually thought someone was sick or dying, or he Prolly even broke up with her. "that's what you're so terrified about?" I laugh, she looks at me and pouts, if I was still into girls, God knows what I will do with her right now right here, TF. I shake my head trying to shake off my perverted thoughts. "I need your help girl, I have no idea what to wear, say or do, what If I freak out? Or say something I shouldn't? Or.." she continues asking panicked questions I shoosh her and try to help her relax "and what makes you think I know what to do either" I say when she finally relaxes. "I don't know, but everything you always suggest or say since I met you as always been right" she says, well she's correct in that aspect I guess until yesterday before I blurted out my feelings. I and Chloe spend the next thirty minutes looking for what she will wear to Zayn's parents, since it's tonight she's literally on edge right now "do you have any idea the location or event, maybe a dinner or something so we pick the perfect clothes" i ask Chloe looking at all the clothes we have removed from the closet. "He said it's a dinner with his whole family" she says her voice quiet low, in that case I pick up a white dress which is fitted, it has long sleeves and turtle neck it's perfect, she could where this with any heels of her choice, then she could make her hair into thick waves and she would look dashing , I tell her my whole plan and as usual she loves it, she hugs me so tight I feel I will loose consciousness "don't kill me, I need to make it to the airport" I tease. "I am just so grateful for you, what will I ever do without you" she says almost tearing up "let's see, you could walk, talk, eat, sleep..." I count nameless things for her ti do without me which makes us both laugh "Zayn actually got me this dress last christmas, I've never worn it out except from this room" she says smiling, well I'm glad she's back to normal, we finally fix the room back to the way it was earlier on putting Chloe cloth on an hanger I bring out the perfect accessories for her to wear and I leave her to choose the shoes she wants, she thanks me for as long as I can remember "Callie you should probably get ready to leave" Chloe says gesturing to the clock i look at it, it's already 2:25 shit, how did time go so fast, Chloe laughs at the way I'm grabbing my stuff to go to the bathroom "look who's terrified now" she says teasing me, I give her the middle finger before entering the bathroom i quickly have my bath, wash my hair, brush and do everything I'm supposed to do before I relax to blow dry my hair. Getting back to the room Chloe looks up and laughs at me again Prolly remembering how I ran into the bathroom, I glare at her playfully which makes us both giggle "could you help me do my hair the way you did it yesterday?" I ask Chloe she nods and walks towards where I'm sitting in front of the mirror, I've already thought of what I want to wear, she styles my hair perfectly the way she did yesterday, I thank her and dress up in all blue Adidas track suits and the same shoes I wore last night with black socks. She arranges her things and starts working on a book on her laptop while I listen to music and play games. I'm playing red Knight as usual its my favorite action game, that is after smash hit, i haven't been playing smash hit because I haven't upgraded it to premium. I check the time after I complete a level it's already after three, where is Adrien? maybe he had something to do before getting here, I continue playing games for as long as I remember till I finally dose off, someone taps me and I look up to see Chloe, "hey Adrien's here" she says trying to keep me awake, I rub my eyes and remove my headset checking the time it's 4:10 Tf! I get up and see Adrien standing by the door, he's talking on his phone and he looks really stressed "then do what you have to do and I will get the full report on Monday" he snaps and hangs up, what's that about I've never seen him mad, he looks over at me and he seems to relax "sorry I'm late somethings came up on my way here I tried calling you but you didn't pick up" Adrien says apologetically, I check my phone
7missed calls
well he's not lying, I nod and hug Chloe on my way out taking my small nap sack to go home "tell me about the dinner when I get back" I say to Chloe she's nods and we leave. In the car Adrien is talking to someone else on the phone, he seems to be snapping at everyone on the phone, he hangs up and turns to me "are you okay? Have you eaten yet?" he asks worry perched on his face "I've eaten thanks" I say "what was that about?" I ask curiosity getting the best of me. He doesn't answer at first "it's the company, you know AINSOFT right?" he asks, yeah who doesn't its the best game company in the world, they created red Knight my favorite game "yh" I nod "well it's my dad's company" he says, my eyes widen, what?! AINSOFT belongs to his father, well I never cared to research anything about the company but I know like almost anything I want to know about the company from my mom, she has worked with his father's company a lot of times "wow that's so nice, that's like the best company ever, I love the games your dad and his team makes, red Knight is so like legit" i ramble on making him chuckle
"so what's wrong then?" I ask finally after I'm out of breath "Zayn is working as an intern in the office, he's working under my supervision, since I'm still going to take over the business I already have a job there as the production manager" he says, Nice, is there anything he can't do? "real smooth" I say which makes him blush a little "Yh that's what I thought at first, but Zayns currently working on a game and my team isnt really doing a good job with the work he's trying to create and its killing me because it's under my supervision and if it doesn't come out like the way it should the company would loose practically millions for not satisfying the costumers " he says, oh now I get, I try to make him feel better and he relaxes a little "thanks for your help, so we are going home right?" he says "oh no, could we actually go to the airport i thought you would be here before four so I could go home then go to the airport myself since the ride their is like two hours" I say "oh OK cool" he says taking a turn which leads him away from the road to our homes, heading for the busy roads of Los Angeles to the airport. Los Angeles can be so crowdy at times like what the fuck, every turn we take is filled with cars and busy people coming out of their offices making the side walk crowdy also "Damn" Adrien says gesturing to the road, he horns loudly when a truck almost hits the car while trying to switch lanes "would you love some music" he asks and I nod, plugging in my phone to the cars speaker and pressing shuffle on my phone to play different songs. Adrien drums to the beat of most of the songs and sings along to most of them, I turn to focus my attention on him, he can't really tell me he didn't hear me yesterday because according to the way I remember it i literally screamed at him, I look at his face- his Damn hot face, allowing my eyes to wander down his lips, his lips look so soft and plum from this side of the car, I bet it tastes better- "what?" Adrien says catching me staring making me heart leap in my chest thinking I said that out loud "nothing can you tell me what happened yesterday evening?" I say trying to regain my composure. He says nothing at first probably trying to remember, well if he doesn't remember there is no need to push it further, I guess.

Adrien's pov
"nothing can you tell me what happened yesterday evening" Callie says clearing her throat, hell no, no way I'm telling her about yesterday night.
are you senile or something.. Thanks for dropping me off get out.. Stop playing hard to get.. I like you..
How can I tell her she admitted to liking me, she would probably be humiliated if I do that "nothing much actually, you just lost balance while walking so I took you up to your room and put you to bed" I say summing things up, she raises her brows, those perfectly shaped brows to tell me she doesn't believe me "that's all?" she questions "I remember telling you to get out" she says softly "Yh, I know you probably didn't mean it, and I didn't want to bring it up, just incase you feel embarrassed or something" I tell her looking over at her to see her already staring, she looks away quickly looking out the windows, the rest of the drive is mostly spent in silence, finally getting to the airport a few minutes to six we sit in the car waiting Theodore's arrival "do you have any plans tomorrow?" i ask Callie, I plan on finally telling her my feelings and asking her out since valentines day is next week anyway, I would love to make her my vow "na, not really I was just gonna do all my assignments for the week and hang around with theo if he wants to do anything for the rest of the day, why? can't stay a day without me?" she teases, maybe that's one of the reason I really love being around her, she teases me every chance she gets which is absolutely adorable. "I can go a week without you trust me" i tease back which makes us both laugh we bicker back and forth for a while till we see the plane finally landing "I guess it's time to run to your protector" I tease her unlocking the doors for her to come down to wait for her brother, she laughs and gets down standing patiently with the others for her brother to come down she sees him soon enough and they both wave at the same time he gets down i expect her to run instantly but she holds herself, he walks and stops like ten feet away from her spreading his arms, she finally runs towards him collapsing in his arms, lucky dude I wish that was me, they really care for each other, they hug for a long time till I finally Horn breaking them apart, "are you guys going to embrace forever, or I can fucking drive Off" i taunt my pal, he laughs ruffles her hair and she carries one of his bags letting him carry the rest, they get to the car and I open the booth for them to put his things in, finally entering the car theo and i do what Bros do taunting each other we drive out of the airport the three of us chatting through out the drive, stopping at a restaurant to eat and finally getting home an hour later, I drop them at their house first and finally go to my mine which is obviously next door. Parking My car in the garage and using the elevator to get to my room, it's funny how it drops me literally in my room, I wonder if Callie's place has the exact same lay out since it's practically the same house looking at it from outside, the interior may not be the same but the exterior is the same. Removing my shoes I put it on my shoe rack and remove my shirt, I'm left in jeans and socks I ruffle my hair and look into my mirror noticing movement behind me I look behind me and see Callie, shit she's in her room, she Probably forgot to drop the blinds of her curtains cause I can see right into her room, I should look away but I can't, she rubs her neck and takes off her shoes walking to her closet to drop it, she comes back to her bed finally raising her hands to remove her sweat shirt, in as much as I know this is wrong i can't tear my eyes away from her body as she removes her track suits I stare while she undresses her shape is magnificent, she's perfect everywhere.. She starts to remove her bra that's when my phone rings, I tear my eyes away from her and look at the phone finally deciding to give her a little privacy.
