Chapter 26

♡ Lauren’s POV ♡ Magee and I have been working on this project for a week. He and I are secret friends. I'm comfortable with him. I even got used to his constant flirting and teasing, and sometimes I even thought he was really flirting with me if he didn't display his usual naughty smile. I'm at Bella's house, and I decided to spend the day with her, because I don't have school today. We were in the living room, and we were both wearing a giant T-shirt and socks, dancing like crazy to dance next to Rihanna. We slid across the floor and pretended to be on ice. "Oh, damn it! Bella exclaimed suddenly. She must have gone too far because she landed on Simon's game console. Simon's gonna kill her. "Are you all fucking right? "I asked, giggling at her. "Oh yeah, I have a good butt.” She replied sarcastically. I shrugged. "Simon will kill you.” "Damn it! She spat it out. "Help me get up, my ass is numb.” She winced and held out her hands. I went to her aid, still laughing at her sacrifice. I held out my hand for her to grasp, but as she was about to grasp, I pulled it back. "Stop screwing around, Lauren.” She growled at me, her eyes full of anger. 'Very well, grumpy lady. 'I giggled. When I helped her up, she rubbed her bottom. She winced when she touched a sore spot. "My butt will never feel the same way again.” "She complained. "Imagine if you had a flat ass like mine, it would hurt even more.” I told her. She was about to answer when Simon walked in with a bag full of junk food. She looked at me, her eyes widening in horror. I was scared, too, but I tried to face it. When he saw us standing there like deer in the headlights, he came towards us. "What the hell are you doing? He asked. "Nothing, we were just dancing.” "Stammered Bella, looking guilty. "Oh, I bought snacks so we could watch a movie.” He smiled and showed us the bag. "Of course.” Bella said. He raised his eyebrows. "Why are you looking at me like that? " "Oh, nothing.” I rushed out shaking my head. "Get out of the way.” Simon said. "Have I told you how beautiful your hair looks today? "I said, trying to distract him. "My hair always looks good, bitch.” As he answered, he pushed me aside and sat me down on the sofa. "What the fuck have you done to my baby? "Simon screamed as he looked at his playstation, a look of humiliation on his face. He turned to us and screamed that he was going to murder us. Before he laughed at us. "It's Bella.” "I blurted out, pointing at her. "You traitor.” Bella screamed at me. I shrugged. "What? A girl saves her ass.” "Bella, you better count to three before I kill you.” Simon spoke a little too seriously, making Bella's eyes widen. Bella runs back to her room, followed by Simon. When I went to see Simon's snacks, they were screaming at each other. Yes, he bought French fries! After 5 minutes Bella came out missing a tufted hair, and Simon followed her with a satisfied smile. I was laughing at Bella's hair, and I didn't notice when she came up to me and hit me in the face with the pillow she was holding. When she hit me on the nose with a pillow, I felt a dull pain, and I rubbed my nose and glared at her. "You deserve it! She yelled at me. "Repay a bitch Bella, remember that! ” I told her. "Will you two shut up? I'm the only one who should be angry right now.” Simon said angrily as he sat down next to me. "Dear Bella, get us some refreshments.” He demanded of her. "Yes, master.” "She complained unhappily. 'Master? I asked, puzzled. "Yes, we reached an agreement. If she's my slave for a week, I won't kill her. 'He shrugged his shoulders indifferently. "Poor Bella, this is too much.” I winced. "Hey, I'm a great host, mind you! ” He defended his gesture. "Keep telling yourself that," I retorted. Bella's back with snacks, and it looks like she's trying to skin me and Simon alive. "Wow, Bella loves this new haircut.” I teased her. "Shut up, Lauren! You are a friend! ” "She screamed. Before sitting down next to me, she poured her snack on me. The three of us sat on a couch, eating like we'd been hungry for days, staring at the TV. "Well? "Simon broke the silence. "Well? "Bella and I both asked. "Well, there's a party tonight. We should go to it.” Simon said. His eyes were everywhere but us. "No.” Bella and I answered. 'You'll never go out! Let's go out tonight. I promise you'll have a great time.” He said, trying to convince us. "Your pleasures are different from our pleasures, Simon.” Bella told him angrily. "Please! ” He pleaded. "Will you stop being so stiff tonight? "He said angrily. "We're too loose! ” We stand up for ourselves. "Prove it and come to the party.” "He laughed. "Yeah, Nope.” We complained. "I won't be naked in my house for two weeks.” He said, giving us the eyes of a puppy. "Yeah, right.” I snorted. "I promise.” He looked at us hopefully. "Suppose we go to this party, can you get us home in an hour? "I asked him. I really don't want to go, but I want him dressed for at least two weeks. 'Yes, yes! He rushed out. "Well, fine, but only for an hour! ” Bella said. "Where is this party? "I asked uncertainly. "Oh, I don't know, a guy I met said he'd take us.” He shrugged. "So your idiot is taking us to a party you don't know where? "Bella shouted. "Don't judge," he said carelessly. "What time does it start? "I asked, a little frightened. What if we get murdered in there? "Half an hour.” He shrugged and went back to eating the chips. "You're telling us this now! ” Bella and I yelled and hurried to get ready. "No. I don't like parties, you know.” I told him.
