Note to self : Dentist appointment. 

Kids... wisdom tooth... they fucking hurt! -_-

So I'm just going to go ahead and say forget me for a few days. I'm going to sleep till I have those big bed wounds type of thingies? Ya till that.

Oh and to those who didn't see the message, so it's fair for you, Blake doesn't have cancer. Happy? lol

So again thanks for all the comments guys! I luuuurveeeee yooouuu! Mouhahaha 

And now I'm going to go sleep... because my legs feel numb and I'm a little dizzy. Good sign? I think not. Oh plus that stupid wisdom tooth hurt. I think I'm going to do like my brother and just pull it out with the vice-grip. Because yes my brother did that. While wearing his red dirt bike helmet and watching a football game. Have I ever told you guys I have a crazy brother?

Oh! And the song I put here... okay it was a hard choice. I wanted to put Lykke Li "Little Bit" too... I might put it in another chapter. But you can always look for it. It kept listening to it while writing this chapter! It's quite fitting for our "couple" :P

Also, this is not the best chapter in the history of "I Sold..." but I need a few filling ones like these because there's big things coming soon kids... mouhahahaha 

So forgive me if this sucks I'll try to be less suckish in the next ones...

Anyway, before I lose consciousness...

Read and enjoy! :D

The first thought that crossed my mind when I woke up was "Mmm nice smell..."

I had fallen asleep in Blake's clothes, which, without knowing the context could sound wrong. Actually even with the context it was an itsy tiny bit wrong.

I nuzzled Blake's hoodie for a few minutes, enjoying a little bit more the smell. He was definitely never seeing it again. Or when the smell would wear off. Would there be a way I could ask to have another one after that?

Wow... stalker much?

But it was his own fault. He smelled nice. Way too nice. And I didn't think it was from any cologne or something, so I couldn't go to a perfume shop and try to find it. That was all Blake.

When he had brought me back last night, or more like early morning, his clothes still all wet I might add, he strictly told me I had to sleep and not wake up until it was necessary to get ready for the talent show which was today at seven thirty. Apparently I looked like I needed sleep. I was probably more keyed up than anything... because I was fighting the urge to just attack him with my lips.

Was there a point where you could, oh I don't know die, or suffocate or something in the likings because of too much sexual tension? Because it wouldn't look good for me if there was. 

Because let's face it, I wanted to kiss the crap out of Blake and then more a LOT lately. Shameful really. I used to be so much more not pathetic.

I rolled in my bed, taking another good sniff.

So Blake had offered to come pick me up for the show. Vanessa and I had talked about going the three of us, meaning with Tyler. But that was before yesterday and that was before me walking on them. I hadn't seen anyone after coming back from Blake. Dad was asleep; he obviously trusted me a little too much when it came to Blake. And well Vanessa and Tyler were probably asleep. Well I HOPED they were.

Mental image AWAY!

I smelled Blake hoodie to distract my mind for a second.

Anyway, I didn't want to be alone in a car with the two of them. I would have to deal with all of this at one point, I was more then aware of that, but right now, a ride with Blake sounded much much better.

I turned another time in my bed, snuggling in my pillow. I was still a little tired, even after sleeping all that time, since it was five o'clock already and I had gone to bed directly after getting home.

I thought about just staying here and sleeping for a second, but then sighed and sat up in my bed. I wanted to go for Vanessa, because she had spent time helping the kids in it and she was one of my closest friends and I had promised and everyone would be there, and because of course I wanted to see Blake. Like that last part even needed to be mentioned.

So I got up and then after smelling it for a good ten seconds, took Blake's hoodie off and went to take a shower and get ready for the show.

When I opened my closet to get some clothes I don't know why but I started to go through it metically, getting almost all of my shirts out, finding all my clothes drab.

For one second I actually thought about getting one of my dresses out but then I almost slapped myself.

A dress? REALLY?

Maybe I was going so thoroughly my closet because I didn't want to get out of my room, because getting out of my room meant facing Vanessa and Tyler. And I still didn't want to do that.

Yes I definitely didn't want to face them. And be left alone in a car with them. Which got me thinking that I should tell Blake I did want that ride. So I texted him "So will you pick me up around seven pretty please?" and then went on with the "getting ready" crap.

I dried my hair and decided to flat them.

Seriously, why was I getting into so much trouble?

The real reason made me bite my lips shamefully.

I wanted to make myself all pretty for Blake didn't I? Stupid stupid stupid! Like doing something with myself would make him like me!

Shallow and pathetic. That's what I was becoming. That's what I was!

For one second I thought about just washing my hair again and let it all dry messily like I usually did. But I knew I wouldn't have the time so instead I just put on my skinny jeans and a gray tank top with a comfortable coral red baggy shirt that looked a little bit like a knit and that had a big neck line, almost off the shoulder type of thing, over it.

When I looked at my cell phone, I saw Blake's answer to my text which was "Perfect. And I will be asking for sexual favours as means of payment for driving you around" and I just rolled my eyes and didn't even lose time to answer to that.

And then I walked out of my room. I actually peeked my head out of the door and looked around.

Wow!

I felt a little stupid. I mean I shouldn't be the one feeling ashamed right? THEY were the ones who had been walked in on. They should be feeling awkward. Not me! Why did I have to suffer because I had walked on my sixteen year old little brother and my best friend since first grade having sex in the said little brother's room?

Oh crap.

I felt like puking in my mouth a little.

Mental image LEAVE!

I shuddered a bit while walking down the stairs and then headed straight to the kitchen to fix myself something to eat; a grill cheese.

I could hear the television in the living room on, and it was a game of something. But the boys weren't screaming anything at it so it probably wasn't football.

Should I go see them?

Yes act all cool and like nothing happen Lexi, that should take care of the problem, I thought dryly.

Still I took my plate with my food in it and slowly walked to the living room.

Both of the boys' eyes were fixed on the TV. Vanessa wasn't there.

"Where's Vanessa?" I automatically asked.

"She went over to Daphnee's around noon and then she had to go help with the final preparation for the show" Tyler quickly explained, his eyes never diverting from the screen.

Well that's right she had told me, the other night when we had spoke that she wanted to spend time with everyone.

"And she's going to come back to pick you up?" I asked him, looking over to the TV too.

Yes no eye contact. That could take care of the problem.

"Ya... wait? You? You mean you're not coming?" Tyler asked, looking my way, frowning but dropped his gaze automatically.

Oh this is ridiculous!

"Blake offered to pick me up" I trailed but couldn't help but notice the smirk forming on my father's face. "Yes dad? Anything to say?"

"Do YOU have anything to say young lady?" my father asked, raising his eyebrows at me and then I thought about the fact I had gone home at like almost four in the morning.

"Oh ya... Right.... Ooops... Crap..." I started to mumbled but dad just laughed.

Okay SERIOUSLY? He was not worried or anything? What the hell?

"That's ALL you have to say for yourself?" Dad asked again, still amused.

"Hmm well I went out with Josh and Blake and didn't see the time..." I answered quickly purposely saying Blake's name second, to not drawn attention maybe, I was freaking out for nothing I'm sure... right?

"Oh so you were with TWO boys?" dad said, shaking his head in fake disapproval and at that moment I just wanted to dramatically point Tyler and scream "HE HAD SEX WITH VANESSA!" whole teenage-soap drama type of thing to get the attention off of me but restrained myself.

"You know you don't have to worry dad, I didn't do anything stupid..."

Aside from assisting two morons while they vandalized a public property.

"So that means you still aren't dating your gutter-climber?" dad asked me.

I sighed and let myself fall on the empty recliner "No dad I'm not dating Blake, sorry but I don't think you'll win your bet, any of you for that matter"

"Oh trust me kid, I've seen the signs. It's only a question of time" dad smiled proudly at me.

Alright he might have seen that I was being pathetic but what did he know about Blake? Even I, who spend so much time with him and knew so much about him, even I had a hard time comprehending him fully. He was still a mystery for me.

Too much of a mystery to have any chances of going out with him anytime soon... right?

But that's not what my deep inside feelings told me. That's not what my fast beating heart told me either...

I liked Blake... the problem was... did he like me? And was I ready?

"Stop thinking too much kid" dad said, bringing me back to reality "You'll fry your brain at some point"

"Ha ha, thanks" I said, rolling my eyes.

"That could work if she had a brain" Tyler said in his brother mocking voice but then he just looked down like he was ashamed of teasing me.

Yes totally not awkward.

I watched the baseball game with the boys while eating my grill cheese and waiting for Blake to come.

Just like I had asked he arrived around seven. I didn't let him the time to get out of his car and walk in because I just KNEW there would be a mention of the Tyler's incident if he came in, or dad would be asking him question and say something like "When are you going to ask my daughter out so I can win my bet" and that's just something I didn't particularly fancy.

So I slipped in my high tops Reeboks shoes, took my gray purse and after saying bye to everyone, left and walked to Blake's car. 

"Missed me?" Blake automatically said, the minute I opened the door.

I rolled my eyes and got in.

His car smelled like his hoodie. I rather enjoyed that.

"You know rolling your eyes isn't an answer right?" Blake smirked and started to drive away.

"Want me to tell you I missed you and can't live two minutes without you Blake?" I said sarcastically.

"Aww come on Pumpkin, say it like you mean it" he smirked at me a little.

When he said that I had a good look at his face and realized he looked tired. REALLY tired. Like he hadn't had any sleep.

"Blake, did you sleep? You look really tired?" I asked him, frowning.

Blake was silent for a few seconds and then took a deep breathe and rubbed his eyes fast. "Nightmares..." he just trailed and I automatically felt bad.

"Can I do anything..." I whispered even though it was a stupid question. 

"How about a good morning kiss?" he said wickedly, pouting his lips, wiggling his eyebrows.

I rolled my eyes, though the thought made the butterflies in my stomach come alive and flap their wings like maniacs "How about a good morning slap?"

Blake smirked "Well well aren't we feisty Miss Grayson? Not a morning person?"

"First of all it's the evening now and no I'm not, but I just think I've become too soft with you. It's time to tie up the notch again" I nodded to myself not sure where I was going with this, just ranting.

I was starting to sound like an idiot. I REALLY should stop being all soft and pathetic though...

Blake eyes shone evilly "When you say tie up the notch you mean Dominatrix type of things? Cause I can totally work with that"

How could Blake go so fast from being all deep and spilling his guts out to being this annoying boy? I might have pushed that a little though.

"You're not funny"

"I'm tired. To me it is"

"You know you don't really have to come to the show, you could always go back home and try to sleep" I trailed.

"No, I have to. Few of dad's students will be there. And I can't leave you all alone now, can I?" Blake smirked a little at me and then after seeing my frowning face he sighed and said "I'll go get myself coffee, I'll be fine, don't worry"

"Well if you feel like you're too tired just say the word alright?" I told him, worried because he really looked tired and almost like he could pass out any moment.

We drove silently and Blake quickly stopped at a coffee shop and then we made our way to school.

"Getting to school on a Saturday. This just feels wrong" Blake said, while walking out of the car, coffee still in hand.

"Tell me about it" I agreed and walked side by side with him to the entrance where there was big poster and stuff to announce it was that way.

I looked around to see which cars were there to know who had arrived.

Everyone seemed here.

At the door, we gave our tickets to kids that were from the school, probably in an after school program that made you enjoy doing this.

Blake was quiet beside me, just yawning now and then and following my lead while I tried to find Daph, Alex, Van and Ty, to know where to sit.

I finally spotted them, Tyler was sitting on the first seat of the row, while Vanessa was standing up beside him. Talking with someone in the row behind her with Daph and Alex.

"Well you two got here fast" I said to Ty when I stopped in front of the row, to get to seats in the middle. I wanted Blake to sit down.

"Ya Tyler... are you always..." Blake coughed a little, mischievously "precocious like that..."

Tyler was glaring at him.

I closed my eyes in disbelief and slapped Blake's stomach with my hand which he obviously caught in his own.

"Sorry about that..." I just trailed, and then, closing my hand around Blake's, towed him with me, to the seat in the middle.

Vanessa blushed a little when she saw us, but Alex and Daph just happily greeted us while we sat in empty seats.

"So I brought tomatoes in my purse" Daph said, lifting it in emphasis "I hope you are all ready to follow my lead when someone sucks, hmm?"

Van shook her head, holding her chuckled "I don't encourage that"

"Ya it's a waste of good food" Tyler trailed beside her.

Oh so now he agrees with her?

Blake was smirking beside me and when I looked at him raising my eyebrows he mouthed the same thought I just had.

But we didn't really have time to chit chat that much because the lights started to go down and the show was going to start.

First on, were two kids, maybe two years younger than us that were doing a comedy duo. It was okay. Awkward at some part but it could have been worst. Though I saw Daph's hands hitching to take her purse.

Did she really have tomatoes in it?

Probably...

The next one was a bunch of girls from the cheerleading team doing a dance routine. I didn't pay too much attention to them because Blake, who hadn't let go of my hand since I had slapped him on the stomach, obviously didn't care about their part, so he was trailing his fingers around mine and my palms and it was getting pretty distracting and I was actually having freaking chills from his touch.

"The girl in the middle isn't wearing anything under her skirt" Daph whispered to me, and I could just imagine her smirk "Can I tomato her?"

"She's already tomatoed herself" I answered trying to keep my voice level and not shaky.

I should have just taken my hand out of Blake's.

But there was no way in hell I was doing that.

Next person was a girl from our grade which we didn't hear that much and kept quiet.

"She's one of dad's students" Blake whispered to me.

She played Sia's "I'm in Here" on the piano, and sang.

It was beautiful and she was really great and she got a lot of applause at the end.

And then Luke with his guitar played and sang "One Day" by Jack Savoretti.

He was obviously really good, he always had been, and I wasn't really that angry at him about the whole Stacey incident anymore.

But it made me a little anxious, that song, with Blake beside me when he sang "Maybe one day you will know how hard it is for me to show my heart and all the love running through my soul" especially since he was holding my hand and I don't know why I had the feeling he could just hear my thoughts and know how I felt, how freaking maddening it was to have him run his finger in my palm like that so softly. Seriously, why the hell was it so maddening? It wasn't anything!

So I was pretty glad when he was done.

Next up was a guy playing piano. The first notes of "Für Elise" he started to play I felt Blake tense beside me.

"What?" I mouthed to him.

Why was he freaking out? The guy seemed good.

Blake leaned into my ear and whispered "It's going to be awful, I can feel it"

The proximity of his lips to my skin had my hair stand up.

"He seems just fine" I breathed back and then bit my lips.

I just wanted to kiss him.

"First part is taught to beginners. You know if someone is good with the second one. Not everybody has the dexterity and the right emotions to play it" Blake whispered quickly.

And then I understood what he meant because the guy started what must have been the second part and it was... well not intolerable... but it wasn't super enjoyable to put it kindly.

"I can't listen to this please hide me, this is awful" Blake whispered almost painfully, and then he lifted his legs to his chest, leaning his head towards me, doing a little scene and Daph was laughing beside.

"Want a tomato?" she offered him.

"He's destroying the piano" Blake whined, and he pretty much had his face hidden in my stomach.

I didn't know if I should have been trilled or pissed.

"Blake, Blake, Blake!" I hissed at him, trying not to be too loud to get attention, but he wasn't listening and being an idiot and he was actually freaking trying to hide under my red coral shirt now and I was hissing "What the! HEY!"

I grabbed him by the hair and pulled his face up.

IDIOT!

What the hell was he thinking!?

"You're an idiot! There's a show going on!" I whispered him, but he was just smirking at me.

And our faces were close.

And he smelled good.

"I'm doing the guy a favour" Blake breathed.

Control over your freaking hormones Lexi!

"You were in my shirt!"

"And I'm doing myself a favor" he smirked wider.

"I'm switching places!" I menaced and earned myself a pout.

Daph leaned her head in front to talk with Blake since I was standing in the middle "You can hide in my shirt sexy running back, I won't mind"

"See Pumpkin" Blake said, and gestured to Daph "That's how you should be reacting"

"Hey shut up!" someone said behind us, and Daph actually got up and was about to throw him a tomato but Alex caught her hand, shaking his head and she sat back pouting.

Damn crazy hippie!

I had a hard time registering the rest of the show because Daph was mocking everyone, unhappy obviously since Alex hadn't let her throw the tomato and because the whole Blake trying to get in my shirt incident had my heart still beating frantically.

Seriously who the hell did that? What the hell was wrong with him!?

All the touching and being close to him, it did weird things to me, inside and out. Couldn't things just be clear and freaking simple for once!?

I was glad when the show was finally over and the lights opened.
