Chapter 13

Three words.

Evan 

Was 

Extremely 

Hot.

Ok, those were actually four words but you can't blame me for not thinking straight right now. My eyes were glued to the square on my laptop's screen. I was staring at the most sexy hot guy I'd ever seen in my life. He was not the muscled hot type; he was more like the sexy mysterious hot type of guy. His hair was midnight black; it was all shaggy partly covering his ears and forehead. His pale skin was flawless. His dark eyes seemed to go on forever. His thick eyebrows leaded the way down to straight-edged shape nose and finally, his full lips. He was wearing a black t-shirt that matched his eyes and hair. I was speechless. 

I had never felt so self-conscious. He was probably thinking I was ugly. My brown hair was falling messily down my shoulders and I had no make-up on whatsoever. I wasn't hot or anything like that. I was average. I had a pair of big blue eyes that was all I'd got. 

"Hey," I finally greeted him back nervously. My pounding heart was going to jump out of my chest. The eagles inside my stomach turned into dragons and fluttered around making feel sick. 

I was seeing him....

He was seeing me...

Oh God, what was he thinking of me?

"So you're Jules?" he asked smiling at me through the camera. his voice sent a shiver through my spine. 

"So you're Evan," I tried to say casually and swallowed feeling my dry throat. Where the hell did all my saliva go? 

"Are you alone?" his black eyes seemed to be swallowing in a slow but steady process. I nodded at his question, "so, tell me, how is it that a girl like you ended up being my friend?" it hurt to hear him say 'friend' it made me wonder if when he'd said he liked me, did he mean it as a friend? But I pushed the thought away.

"What do you mean 'a girl like me'?" I furrowed my eyebrows. 

"Well, you are all happiness and love while I'm a negative realistic jerk,"

"You're admitting you're a jerk?" I cocked an eyebrow.

"I never said I wasn't," he smirked at me and my heart skipped a beat. Cute dimples appeared on his cheeks making him look devilish adorable. 

Breathe, Jules, Breathe

"I could ask you the same thing. I thought you hated me," I was trying to act casual but I was failing miserably. 

"Why are you so nervous?" he tilted his head to the side. Amusement plastered on his face.

"I'm not nervous," I said in a puff. 

"Yes, you are," he teased and I looked away. 

"So, what's up?" I looked at his image on the screen again and he still had that arrogant smirk on his face. 

"I wanna try something," he whispered.

"What?"

"What color is your underwear?" my eyes widened and I couldn't help blushing fiercily. My face was as red as a tomato.

"You..." An insult didn't come to my mind. Evan laughed loudly. God, even his laughter was sexy. I glared at him until he was done laughing. 

"I knew you would do that,"

"What?'"

"Blush like that, you're so innocent, Jules," his eyes held a glint of something I couldn't decipher. 

"You are a pervert," I accused him.

"No, I am not," he ran his fingers through his hair messing it a little. I gawked at him like a stupid person. Anytime soon I was going to start drooling all over my laptop "I just enjoying teasing you, Mrs. Strawberry," my breathe was caught inside my lungs. Those nicknames sounded so good coming from him. Evan cleared his throat. I realized my mouth was hanging partly opened so I regained my composure and gave him a closed mouth smile.

"You should stop it with the pet names,"

"Why?"

"Because we're friends," I slurred the last word. Why was it that I couldn't deal with the fact that he thought of me as a friend? I mean, I understand him. We met on the internet. It was not like he was going to like more than a friend, right? Those stuff didn't happen. We hadn't even faced each other personally. It was then I realized how bad I wanted to meet him in the real world, which brought me to the next question I made "Where do you live?" Evan's smile vanished and he looked deadly serious for a moment. 

"Are you stalking me again, Jules?" he pretended to be scared.

"No, I just want to know,"

"Why?"

"I'm curious besides, you're my friend,"

"Does it matter?"

"Yes," I stated frankly. I watched him hesitate. 

"I should go now," he said scratching the back of his head. 

"No, don't leave,"

"I have things to do," he stated coldly.

"Why can't you just tell me? Do you seriously think I'm going to stalk you?" I was confused. Evan let out a long sigh.

"We are miles away, Jules. That is all you need to know,"

"It's not enough," I needed to know.

"Yes, it is,"

"Jules," his dark eyes looked at me seriously. I felt like he was seeing right through me even when we were seeing each other over a web camera "Drop it," he whispered and then logged off. 

I stared at the black screen where his sexy face had been a few seconds ago. Why couldn't he tell me? I shut my laptop and rubbed my face. What was I doing? 

"We are miles away, Jules. That is all you need to know," 

Those words kept spinning around my head. My heart was sinking in my chest. Was he telling the truth? What was I going to do if he was miles away from me? I raked my fingers through my hair.

"What are you doing, Jules?" I wondered aloud. Evan was getting to me in a way I'd ever expected him to. I liked him, I really really liked him. In fact, he was the first guy to make me feel so many things. All these sensations were new for me but how was it possible? Was it possible to like someone that much without personally knowing him? I closed my eyes and let out of a long sigh. His face came to mind.

He was so sexy, I smiled like a fool remembering the cute dimples that formed on his cheeks when he smirked. I checked my phone, there were no new mails so Evan hadn't messaged me. I looked down sadly and went upstairs. It was almost midnight already. 

I threw myself on my bed landing on my back. My eyes met the wooden ceiling, I stared at it in silence. I knew I was going to have a hard time falling sleep due to my unhealthy sleeping routine. I tossed around my bed desperately. I wanted to sleep so I didn't have to think. I was almost succeeding when my phone rang. I checked the screen narrowing my eyes at the sudden amount of light.

ID

Jason Rocks :D

Yeah, he registered his number like that in my phone. I frowned. Did he finally get over the me-seeing-him-naked incident? 

"Hello?" I answered. There were noises and loud background music. 

"Juuleeess!" A girl shouted sounding excited "Julieee!" it was then I recognized the voice. 

"Laura?" I sat up totally surprised. 

"I lovee youu, Juleees! You know that, don't you?" she slurred excitedly. Wait...

"Are you drunk?" Lau was not the type of girl to drink. In fact, I'd never seen her drunk in my life. 

"No, yes, no, I mean, yeah," she hiccupped "maybe,"

"What the hell... Where are you?" I demanded worried.

"This party is amazing! I... Jordan... he's so hot..."

"Lau, where are you?" I repeated my question swinging my feet out of bed.

"Amanda's party! Yeah!" she shouted and the people in the background followed her. 

"Who the hell is Amanda? What are you doing there? Where's Jason?"

"Who's Jason?" Laura inquired laughing.

"Our friend, the owner of the phone you're using," I reminded her exasperated.

"Oh, Jay, jay!"

"Jay Jay?" 

"That's his name," Lau giggled. 

"Lau, I need to talk to Jason," I stated. It was obvious she was a lost cause. 

"Oh wait... he's.... Jay Jay!" she called him out and I moved the phone away from my ear. Jesus, she practically screamed in my eardrum "He's coming," there were a lot of noises, voices, screams before I heard Jason's voice.

"Hello," his voice sounded neutral for a moment. 

"Jason, where the he-"

"JUlie! I've missed you sooooo much!" he shouted over the phone. 

"Oh God," I said face palming myself "Of course, you're drunk, too," I mumbled.

"I'm so sorry for what happened! You are my best friend in the world, Jules!" 

"Shut up! Where are you?"

"We are... hum... we are at..." he hesitated, "Banana's party,"

"Banana? You mean, Amanda?"

"Yeah, her, she's so cool,"

"How-Ah, never mind, is there a sober person there?"

"What?" 

"Is there a sober per-" the line went dead. Groaning in frustration, I dialed his number again but only to hear his voicemail. I called Laura but she didn't pick up her phone. 

"Arg!" What the hell were they thinking? They were never the party-like type of people. Why were they drunk and who were on Earth was Amanda? Why didn't Laura tell me anything about a party? I could understand why Jason didn't, I mean, he didn't even speak to me. But Laura? That girl told me everything she did. They were my best friends. 

They were drunk somewhere out there. I needed to do something. What could I do? 

Shane...

Yeah, if there was a party somewhere he was obviously there. He wasn't the school's golden boy for nothing. Reluctantly, I dialed his number. It rang a few times before he answered.

"Wow, two calls in a day," his smug voice made me roll my eyes "You really want me, Jones," 

"Get over yourself, where are you?"

"Why should I answer your question at..." he seemed to be looking at his watch "1:30 am,"

"Are you at Amanda's party?"

"How do you know?"  See? I was really smart. 

"I need you to do something for me,"

"Whoa, whoa, slow down, we're not friends,"

"Shane, this is a life and death situation,"

"I don't believe you,"

"Fine, it's not but please-"

"I need a motivation," I sighed in frustration. 

"I will speak to Merissa or whatever her name is," I offered. That was the hot girl he liked in his math's class.

"You already promised that, and her name is Melissa,"

"Fine, I will make her fall for you in a week,"

"You give me your word?"

"Yeah,"

"Alright, what do you want this time?"

"I need you to look for Jason and Laura and bring them here,"

"Why?"

"Just do it,"

"Fine but I don't know who's Laura,"

"Jesus, Shane she's been your neighbor your entire life,"

"Really?"

"Yes, now go and find them. Do not take them to their houses. Bring them here. Their mothers will snap if they see them drunk,"

"Wait, they're drunk?" 

"Move!" 

"Fine!" he hung up rudely. 

**

I was pacing around my living room like a caged lion. It'd been forty five minutes since I spoke to Shane. What was taking him so long? I heard an engine and I ran out of the house. The cold night air hit my bare skin. I was wearing a night gown, before you think I looked sexy, believe me I didn't. Shane parked and jumped out of the car. He was wearing dark jeans, a loose t-shirt and a black jacket. I could see the annoyance plastered on his face. 

"Julie!" Jason shouted getting off the back seat. He stumbled towards me. He was a mess "Julie!" he pulled me into a tight hug. The smell of liquor enveloped me.

"Where is Laura?" I mouthed to Shane over Jason's shoulder. Shane shrugged. I frowned and took Jason inside the house. I threw him on the couch and it surprised me how quickly he fell asleep. I turned to Shane angrily.

"Where is she?" I folded my arms across my chest.

"She's with Jordan," Shane said shrugging.

"What?!"

"Yeah, he offered her a ride home,"

"Are you out of your mind? She was drunk!"

"Hey, Jordan is not a bad guy. He is going to take care of her,"

"That's bullsh*t! Oh God," I held my forehead dramatically.

"She's going to be alright, stop the drama,"

"Drama?" I asked moving my hands exasperated "She's in danger,"

"Jordan will take care of her, I promise," Shane said seriously. I sighed in defeat. Shane approached to me slowly. I had to tilt my head back to look at his face.

"What?" he smiled down at me and cupped my cheek. I shivered at the contact. His hazel eyes were looking right into my blue ones.

"You look like an angry kitten," he twisted a smile amused. I narrowed my eyes at him.

"What's that supposed to mean?" his thumb caressed my cheek softly. What was he doing? 

"Nothing," he retreated his hand back and scratched the back of his head "I gotta go,"

"Shane..." he gave his back to me and left slamming the front door closed behind him. What was all that about? 

I went upstairs, leaving a snoring Jason on my couch. I landed on my bed for the second time that night. I checked my phone and smiled like a fool when I saw a message from Evan. He was already logged off but his goodnight message still brought a smile to my lips.

"Goodnight, sweet Jules. You are too cute for your own good ;)" 

With those sweet words prowling inside my head, I fell asleep.
