24 -Exposed-
[Name's] POV
"Mom, dad, can he please stay? He's really sick and I don't want to send him home when he's still weak," I say, standing before my parents trying to convince them to let Sasuke stay just for one night. They both sat in chairs, as I stood in front of the television so that they can have their full attention on me.
My parents has this "No Boys Allowed" rule, where boys can't be in our rooms behind closed doors; well more like boys can't be in our rooms period. I understand their concern - raising two girls, fearing that some boy is trying to grope and touch their goodies - but they know I'm responsible. They know I won't allow a boy to touch me inappropriately.
"I don't know," my mom says, looking over to me my dad. "What do you think dear?"
"What does his parents think about this?" My dad asks, looking at me.
"They think it's cute," I mumble. "Mr. and Mrs. Uchiha already think Sasuke and I are dating, so they think it's cute that I'm taking care of my-- I mean, Sasuke."
"Well are you?" My dad asked, glaring slightly.
"What?"
"Are you two dating?" he asked, more clearly.
"N-No we a-aren't we-we're just fr-friends," I stutter, quite flustered that my dad would ask that question. I fiddle my thumbs as I feel my cheeks warm to a fiery hot.
"Aww look at her, she's embarrassed!" My mother squealed. "You like him, don't you?"
"Mom," I whine as she grabs my hand.
"I totally say yes! He can stay," she agrees to my first question. "He's such a cutie, I see why you chose him."
Still embarrassed, I look over to my dad waiting for his answer. I was really wanting to hear his answer because he usually would say no to this type of thing.
Sighing, my dad looks me in the eyes. I can already tell he didn't want to say yes to this, but he also didn't want to kick out a sick boy.
"If I see him touching you inappropriately, he's getting kicked out," he threatened, promise lacing his words. I know my dad wouldn't hesitate to throw Sasuke out. I should probably warn Sasuke about this.
"Thank you daddy!" I kissed his cheek. "Thank you mom!"
My mother hugged me before I ran upstairs to my room. When I got to my door, I hear Sasuke and Alexa talking to each other.
"So what does her voice sound like?" Sasuke asks.
"Uh I dunno. Why do you care?" Alexa responds a little too harshly.
"Cause I feel like she doesn't trust me. You get to hear her voice all the time. So, what does it sound like?"
"I don't know. She sounds like a girl."
"Wow very descriptive," sarcasm laced every word Sasuke said. That's when I opened the door. I would hate if Sasuke and Alexa got into an argument.
Sasuke looks at me and asks, "Are they allowing me to stay?"
I nod, walking into my room and sitting down on the floor next to Alexa. We were supposed to have a girl's day and a sleepover, but Sasuke came over unannounced, so this kind of put a dent into our plans. Now I won't be able to use my voice until Sasuke falls asleep.
"So what're we going to do now?" Sasuke asked, looking at both of us.
Alexa scoffed, rolling her eyes. "You're going to rest, Mr. Vomit-on-my-brand-new-shoes. [Name] and I are gonna do some girl stuff."
Sasuke huffs. "You're still mad about that?"
"Ya damn skippy I'm still mad about it!! Those were brand fucking new!" Alexa nearly screams at Sasuke, who looked as if he couldn't care less.
"I told you, I'd buy you a new pair, so stop complaining."
"Whatever, go to sleep so [Name] and I can do what we planned on doing today," Alexa completely dismisses Sasuke like he's a little kid.
"I'm not going to sleep until you two sleep," Sasuke sneers, pretty angry at Alexa for treating him like a kid.
"[Name] get your boyfriend before he gets his ass kicked," Alexa snaps at me for no damn reason.
I wanted to yell at her to calm her damn tits but Sasuke was right there.
This is going to be hard...
"I'm not her fucking boyfriend!" Sasuke barks at Alexa, but then begins to cough. Loudly I might add.
"Don't spread your fucking sickness to me," Alexa hisses, moving farther away from Sasuke.
I glare at my best friend, telepathically trying to tell her to stop being so damn rude.
You're being a bitch! Lower your bitch levels back down to one...
Alexa sighs and apologizes to Sasuke after she sees my angry face. "Sorry Sasuke. I'm just really pissed about my shoes."
Sasuke groans in pain, holding his chest. "I keep telling you, I'll buy a new pair of shoes for you. Damn stop being so angry."
"Okay I'll stop," Alexa mumbles. She scratches the back of her neck, feeling somewhat bad for being angry for no damn reason. "You need a cough drop?"
Alexa passes him the medicine that'll sooth his chest and cough. He takes it from her hand and puts it in his mouth, letting the medicine do its job.
"Thanks," he mumbles. It became awkwardly quiet between the two of them.
At least they're not fighting anymore.
...
Once Sasuke fell asleep, Alexa and I finally got to do some girl stuff. Also, I finally got to speak, quietly though. Together, Alexa and I made a blanket fort with any extra pillows and blankets that happened to be lying around my house.
We giggled, painted our nails, did each others makeup - hideously I may add - colored in her sketchbook, had a small pillow war, and even put makeup on Sasuke when he was sleeping. It was a shit load of fun.
"You know, Sasuke could be smearing all that makeup on your pillow right now," Alexa says, laughing quietly.
"Yeah, I know. But it'll be worth it to see sleeping beauty wake up with smeared lipstick and eyeliner all over his face."
We both laugh, not meaning to be loud but we are anyways.
Sasuke's POV
I wake up to the sound of laughter, and my name being said over and over.
Is someone talking about me?
I don't open my eyes, although, I listen to every word.
"Do you think he'll be angry?"
Okay, that's Alexa...what is she talking about?
"He'll be furious and probably even kill us both."
And that's....wait who is that? That voice it sounds so familiar... Could it be phone girl? Does she know Alexa and [Name]?
I open my eyes slightly, and in my hazy vision, I only see two girls. The same two girls that have always been here; [Name] and Alexa.
"Wait, what?" I mumble to myself, my brain not keeping up with what I was seeing. I heard phone girl's voice, but only [Name] and Alexa are here; there is no third girl. [Name] only talks to people she's comfortable with, Alexa being one of those people. When my brain finally puts two and two together, I jolt up, my eyes wide.
"Oh look who's awake," Alexa says, suppressing her laughter.
My head began to pound. It felt as if someone was drilling into my head.
Have I really been talking to [Name] this whole time without knowing?! How stupid can I be?! No wonder she never gave me her number because I already had it! Phone girl never told me her name because I already knew it!
I honestly felt like I've been played with. Like she's just been toying with my heart this whole time.
"How are ya feeling Sasuke?" Alexa asks me, but I don't respond. My head hurts too much, it's like I've just been mind fucked.
"Alexa, could you give [Name] and I a moment alone please?" I ask, my voice lifeless.
"Oh...um sure?" Alexa doesn't question it, and leaves the room.
"[Name] we need to talk," I say, glaring at her.
*What's wrong?
"Stop with that damn charade! It's insulting now that I know who you are," I growl, slightly angry but most of all hurt.
She looks down at her hands, not really surprised at the fact that I know now. She bites her lip as she sits there, thinking.
Sighing, she comes towards me. [Name] sits right next to me and sighs. "You were going to find out sooner or later."
"Why would you do this?" I ask. "Why didn't you say who you really were?"
"Cause I thought you'd get angry with me!" she defends herself. "When we first met, at that ramen shop, I was so worried that you would figure out who I was if I spoke. I thought you'd tease me and call me names. You were such a dick that I didn't even want to tell you."
I do remember being an asshole to her. Calling her beastly, and insulting her voice, which surprisingly I love the sound of. Ironic, isn't it?
"At times, I wanted to let you know. I've thought about it, but didn't know how'd you react."
"How could you do this to me?" I mumble, conflicting emotions battling with one another, throwing my heart into chaos.
I did want them to be the same girl, so I'm happy about that. But I'm angry with her for not telling me, and angry with my past self for being such a dick to [Name].
"You made me fall in love with you twice. I was, distraught that I couldn't have you both as my lover but now I'm so happy that you're the same person," I sigh, thinking over the past few months that I knew [Name]. "But now, I feel like you were just toying with my emotions."
"You...you love me?"
"Yeah...yeah I do...or I did. I don't know. My feelings are all jumbled into a big mess right now."
"I'm sorry Sasuke. Truly sorry," she mutters, placing a hand on my arm. Cautiously, she wraps her arms around me and I place my forehead on her shoulder, moving my arms to wrap around her waist comfortably.
As time passed, I nuzzled into her neck, letting my lips trace up along her skin. We become face to face, our noses touching. Her eyes look drained, sleepy even. It was early in the morning, and I doubt that Alexa and her slept at all.
[Name] slowly leans in, letting her lips brush mine gently. She was being careful, seeing if I'd let her, even after what had happened. I peck her lips, giving her the okay.
Our kiss, I was hoping it would be an exciting tango, but it was more of a sad waltz. It had a subtle need to it, neither of us knew what we were doing but at the same time we did. Our kiss was sad; in the moment when our lips locked, we showed just how lonely we are without the other. We needed each other, but we also needed some time to think.
It was more of a kiss goodbye then a hello.
...
We held each other. Snuggled together, giving each other warmth. She held me like she didn't want me to go, but she knew I was going to leave. I told her I was leaving before she woke up, told her I needed some time to sort out my feelings.
Part of me wanted to yell at [Name] for making me feel this way, another part of me wanted to tell her I love her too much to be angry. I also wanted to apologize for being so mean to her in the past.
"I'm such an emotional wreck right now," I mumble, kissing [Name's] forehead. The sleeping girl buried her face deeper into my chest, and I smile. She was my girl, the only girl that could ever make me feel so emotional. What has she done to me?
I love you so much that I hate you. Or could it be I hate you so much that I love you?
I pull her closer and close my eyes. Slowly, I drifted back to sleep.
[Name's] POV
When I opened my eyes, I realized that Sasuke was no longer there. Sighing, I sit up in my now empty bed, the warmth that Sasuke provided me was now gone. Alexa was already awake, staring at me with a big smirk on her face.
"What?" I groan. I am not a morning person. She laughs loudly, giving me a small mirror to look at my face.
"Looks like Sasuke got his revenge!"
"What?" I say again, confused until I looked in the mirror.
"You look like the Joker's sister!" Alexa laughed, falling on her ass and holding her gut. Makeup was smeared all over my face, and like Alexa said, I looked like the Joker's sister.
Damn you Sasuke!
"He's lucky I love him."
