Life and Chase Intro 4 страница

I snatched it out of his hand and went to the couch sitting beside Nash.

" I hate him, " I said.

" I never thought I'd say this, but I missed your bickering, " he said “The house was silent for way to long. ”

Chase sat down on the coffee table in front of us. His legs placed on either side of my thigh.

" So listen man, my parents went on their romantic retreat this weekend and it will go a little further into the week. We should totally throw a party tomorrow night" Nash said.

" That's great I know this guy who could score us some seriously nice booze" Chase agreed.

" Figures you two are going to destroy the house, the minute mom gives you an ounce of responsibility" I said.

My parents have wanted to leave on this wine tasting expedition, that my grandma gave them on their last anniversary and they finally packed up and left last night. But their happiness would be short lived when they noticed how the house looked.

" Hey Lex, can you crash at April's place? " Nash asked.

" And miss your party. No way" I scoffed.

" I think you should stay with April. It might get a little wild here" Chase suggested.

" And that's why I was ignoring him" I said.

" Okay you can stay, but no drinking" Nash added sternly.

" Fine" I lied.

I haven't been to a party in a long time. It was about time I had some fun.

c h a p t e r e l e v e n

I squeezed into my black dress. That I was sure would give Nash and Chase a heart attack. It stopped just below my ass and put my cleavage on full display.

April came out of my washroom in her dress. A blue dress that was tight from the top and flowy from the bottom and looked exceptionally cute on her.

" Shit Lexi you look hot" she said.

" I might as well look good its technically my party" I said.

Nash barely did anything and Chase spent the longest time getting a hold of the alcohol, he was barely here and I was left to take care of everything.

I sat on my bed putting on my red pumps.

I heard the music pumping loudly from downstairs. The party started an hour ago, but that was how long it took me to get dressed. I stood up.

" Okay let's go party" I said.

" Finally" April sighed.

We climbed down stairs and we parted separate ways. I needed a drink. I spotted Chase making out with a girl and madly gropping her. I held back my disgust.

I went in the kitchen which was empty except for one boy. He looked me up and down appreciatively. He was attractive with black curly hair and brown eyes.

" Nash's little sister all grown up" he smiled " Who knew you were hiding a body like that? "

" You have balls, hitting on me" I said impressed.

" I talk when I see something I like" he said amused.

I walked over to him standing in front of him, my chest brushing his.

" Do you have the balls to touch me? " I asked tilting my head.

His finger brushed my shoulder, before tilting up my chin and kissing me. We went at it for awhile before pulling apart.

" Okay kids not on the kitchen table. I eat on it" Chase said.

I turned around to look at him. His eyes widened, trailing down my body, lingering on my breasts and traveling down to my feet and back.

" Lexi" he said roughly.

He cleared his throat and looked at the boy behind.

" Get your hands off her, before I call her brother" he said lowly.

He moved past me and left the room. I guess he wasn't as brave as I thought.

Chase walked up to me and grabbed my hand, he towed me to the closet and closed the door behind him. We were in the dark for a minute before I turned on the light.

" Are you going to lock me in here? " I asked drily.

" Why are you wearing that? " he asked staring down at me.

" Because I felt like it" I shrugged.

" And that boy do you like him? " he asked distracted.

" I don't like everyone I kiss" I rolled my eyes.

" Why are you staring at me like that? " I shifted uncomfortably.

" Like what? " he asked licking his lips.

" Like I'm the last piece of pie" I said.

He brushed my hair away from my shoulder and stepped forward until our chests were pressed against each other.

I swallowed nervously.

He bent down his eyes not leaving mine and began kissing my neck, sucking on my soft flesh. I tried to control my breathing, my throat feeling unbearably dry. He took his time and I let him. He kissed the top of my breast, moaning in pleasure.

He pulled back his eyes dark with lust and his lips finally meet mine. I clutched his hair pulling him closer, we couldn't get close enough. His grip on my waist tightened. His tongue entered my mouth and I felt my heart beat pick up. We pulled apart panting, our chests rising in sync.

His face broke out in a beautiful smile.

" I've wanted to do that for awhile" he said.

" I never thought I'd let you" I confided.

But I wanted to kiss him. It was amazing and perfect.

" I should go" he said.

" Don't leave" I clutched his shirt.

He smirked " Can't get enough of me"

" Whatever leave I don't care" I folded my arms on my chest.

" Don't worry we have nothing but time" he whispered.

I nodded.

" Go to sleep" he kissed my forhead " You've had enough excitement for one night".

I slipped out and climbed upstairs to my room.

I closed my eyes and replayed that amazing kiss.

I woke up the next morning all hot and bothered. I oddly had a fantasy about Chase last night. A very vivid one that involved him and me and some sexy lingerie which I never even owned. It ended when he was slowly removing my underwear, thank god I didn't think I had the strength to make it to the end of that fantasy.

Someone knocked on my door.

" Yes" I said.

" I'm hungry" Chase whined " Come feed me".

I couldn't face him without blushing or him finding out that I was highly attracted to him.

" I can't" I said " I'm busy"

He opened the door. I clutched my blanket to my naked body.

" What are you so busy with that you can't feed me? " he said faltering when he glanced at me.

He opened his mouth and closed it, this repeated a few more times. His cheeks beginning to turn a bright shade of pink.

I stared down at myself and grabbed a pillow covering myself, realizing a little too late that my blanket was transparent.

" Is there something you wanted? " I asked blushing fiercly.

He shook his head and retreated back slowly, closing the door rather loudly.

I climbed down stairs beyond mortified. That was the only time I slept naked and that was only cause I was burning up.

I entered the kitchen and poured myself my cereal sitting down beside Nash.

" So I barely saw you last night" Nash said " Did you behave? "

" Yes"

Chase walked in looking extremely gorgeous. His grey muscle tank accenting his biceps and matching his eyes. I knew Chase was good looking, but it was like I was seeing him in a different light. He stopped in his tracks when he saw me.

" We have to clean up this place" Nash said grimacing at the sight of the house.

I looked down at my cereal, avoiding Chase's heated stare.

" You and Chase handle this floor and please manage to do it without bickering and breaking something in the process" Nash sighed " And I'll deal with upstairs"

I looked up astonished " Barely anyone went up, you're trying to do the least amount of work".

" Well that's why there is two of you to do here" he reasoned.

He lifted his bowl slurping off the last of his milk.

" See you both on the other side" he saluted walking out, whistling.

Chase took Nash's now unoccupied seat.

I swirled my spoon in my bowl, feeling my cheeks redden.

He stopped my hand, his palm covering my hand.

" You don’t have to be ashamed" he said.

" Really? because the one night I decide to take off my clothes and forget that my sheets were transparent. You walk in" I said.

" Lexi I wouldn't have come in, if I knew" he said.

" I'll never live this down" I muttered.

" I'll take off my pants, if it makes you feel better" he offered.

" Tempting but I'll pass" I said.

" Look about last night" he began.

" It was a mistake" he said at the same time that I said " It was amazing".

My face dropped.

" I'm sorry Lexi. I was drunk I didn't know what I was doing. I don't see you that way" he apologized.

" You're lying" I smiled.

He raised a brow " How can you be sure? "

" I tasted your mouth, you never drank" I reasoned.

" Okay so maybe I never drank that doesn't erase the fact that it was a mistake" he said.

" It's because of Nash isn't it? " I asked " You don’t want to betray his trust".

He looked away rubbing his jaw hardly. I tilted his chin towards me, his eyes meeting mine.

" Nash won't find out" I said " We can keep it between us. It'll be our little secret".

" I don't know" he said unsure.

" Okay fine, I'll forget about it" I said.

" No you're right" he grabbed my hand " We should give us a chance".

He kissed my hand " But we have to be careful, Nash can't ever find out".

I felt my heart flutter, it took one good make out session for me to be so entranced by the boy. I stood up and started throwing the dirty cups in the trash, before he could see the look I was giving him.

We started cleaning. Chase decided to take a nap at one point. But he woke up when he got a taste of our dish rag.

" You two did well" Nash said coming into view.

" Next time you throw a party. I am not helping in the clean up duty" I said.

" Then you won't be attending either" he said.

" Can you get us water Lex? " Chase asked " You are a girl right? "

" Get it yourself sexist pig" I said.

" I'll get it" Nash rolled his eyes.

Chase rubbed my thigh and started kissing my neck.

" Stop it" I hissed " You're being obvious and your sweaty".

" Your sweaty too, you don't see me complaining" he murmured against my skin.

He pulled back hearing Nash's footsteps.

" What did you say to her? " Nash asked, placing down three glasses off water.

" What makes you think I said anything? " Chase asked gulping his and then half off mine, before handing me the cup.

I sighed and drank what little remained in my cup.

" Her face is red so I'm assuming you pissed her off" Nash continued.

" Is it? " Chase smirked.

" I'm taking a nap" I stood up.

" Try to wear clothes this time" Chase yelled after me.

" What are you talking about? " Nash asked confused.

" Inside joke" he said amused.

I left and was glad he was facing my back, because I was blushing like crazy.

c h a p t e r t w e l v e

" He has a girlfriend Lex" April said the minute I answered my phone.

" Who? " I asked confused.

" That guy I told you about" she said dismayed " In my Biology class".

" Your partner" I recalled.

" Yes" she sighed " I should have known".

" You couldn't possibly know that" I said " And there are plenty of fish in the pool".

" I should have not diverted my attention away from Chase" she sulked.

" C'mon April I'm pretty sure that guy made way better conversation than Chase" I said.

" He was interesting" she agreed.

" Get dressed we'll go out for ice cream" I said.

I wasn't sure weather to tell April about Chase and I. We hadn't really defined our relationship, we hooked up a bit last night after we were done cleaning upstairs since Nash did a crappy job, he still annoyed me to death, but he made it clear I wasn't to tell no one about us. So I couldn't.

I got dressed and climbed down the stairs. The house was empty since my parents still weren't back and Nash had a date with the devil Jessica.

I climbed to the basement to tell Chase I was heading out.

" Chase" I said.

I heard ruffling before seeing Chase on top of a leggy blonde. He pulled back from her, hearing his name. I stared in disgust.

" Lexi it's not what it looks like" he stood up in his boxers.

I turned around and walked away. I shouldn't have gotten attached so fast. It wouldn't hurt like this if I didn't. I ran up the stairs, ready to drown myself in a carton of ice cream with April.

I felt my arm yanked back and I crashed into his chest.

" I can explain" he said, his breath fanning my ear.

" Let go" I hissed.

" You never described to me, our arrangement in full detail" he argued.

I stared at his grey eyes, resisting the urge to slap him.

" C'mon Lexi I'll make her leave, we can talk about it" he offered.

" I'm hanging with April" I said.

He loosened his grip on me and I slipped my hand out.

" Is that dead beat brother of hers gone? " he asked narrowing his eyes.

" None of your business" I said.

" Lexi" he growled.

" He's gone okay" I snapped.

I turned around to leave, when he grabbed my hand pulling me to his chest his lips meeting mine. I melted in his arms, feeling his strong grip on my waist.

He pulled back tracing his finger on my lips.

" Be safe" he whispered " We'll talk when you come back".

~○ ~○ ~○ ~○ ~○ ~○ ~○ ~○ ~○ ~○ ~

I walked to English class and bumped into a strong chest and almost toppled over. When a strong arm caught my waist. I stared up at Chase's familiar eyes.

" Watch where you're going" he said a smile spreading across his face.

" You bumped into me" I pointed out.

" Were you day dreaming about me? " he asked.

" You wish" I smiled.

His arm was still around me, holding me firmly to his chest.

" Let's go" he said pulling my arm.

" Go where I'm late for class" I whined.

He ignored me, I stared at the empty hallway.

He pushed open the storage door and kicked the door close with his foot. He pushed me against the wall and I felt his lips on mine.

" I missed you" he murmured.

" You've seen me all day" I said.

He pushed me closer to him, kissing me hungrily.

" It's so hard seeing you and not being able to touch you" he said breathlessly " Complete torture".

" I feel the same" I said.

Seeing him in the hallway and not being able to hold his hand, or stand in the crook of his arm or even peck him. Made me long for him even more.

He pulled me back to him, his hand slipping under my shirt.

" Class" I remembered.

He was working his lips down my neck.

" Hmm" he responded.

I grabbed a fist of his hair and pulled his head back. He looked up at me his face showing his longing.

" I have class" I repeated.

He nodded " You're right I don't know what I was thinking. Go to class".

He turned around to leave.

" Wait, Chase" I said.

I wiped my lip gloss off his lips and he ran his hand through my hair fixing it.

" You look presentable" he said pulling my shirt down.

" As do you".

We parted separate ways.

I walked out after school and headed to the back of the school, where our field was located.

" Hey Nash" I called my brother.

He was wearing his lacrosse jersey and gym shorts. His face flushed from running laps.

" I can't drive you home today" he said, jogging over to me " Neither can Chase we have practice".

" Seriously it's so sunny today. I don't feel like walking" I complained.

" You won't have to Jessica offered to drive you" he added.

I did a great job of holding back my grimace.

He smiled and I smiled back and walked to the parking lot and spotted her Audi.

" Took you long enough" she said.

" I never knew I'd have to ride with you" I said.

" You're brother always chids me for not getting to know you better" she rolled her eyes.

I relaxed in my seat.

" He wants you, me and him to watch a movie together tonight" she said.

" God when is he going to give up" I shook my head.

" Maybe if you had your own friends, he wouldn't beg me to be yours" she said.

" Maybe if you weren't a bitch, he wouldn't be digging for a reason to break up with you" I suggested.

" Bitch" she muttered.

" Slut" I retorted.

We finally reached home and I sighed in relief. I helped my mom unpack for awhile, they got in this morning and were basically sleeping the whole day. They were extremely jet lagged, my dad just nodded at me when he came, he called me Nash too. But I was willing to look past that grave error.

My parents called it a night and I was finally about to relax and read a book. When I heard her annoying voice once again.

" Lexi, come down" Nash yelled.

I climbed down grudgingly.

Jessica was on the couch with a bowl of popcorn and Chase was flipping through dvds.

" We're watching a movie" Nash said.

" Great" I muttered, plopping down on the couch.

" Nice enthusiasm" he said, equally sarcastic.

I sat down on the other side of the couch.

" We are watching Scream" Chase said enthusiastically.

" No I hate scary movies" Jessica whined.

I rolled my eyes " It's not that scary".

" Besides I'll protect you" Nash said wrapping his arms around her.

She snuggled into him, nearly bringing my lunch back up.

The movie started and Chase sat beside me, grabbing the popcorn bowl from Jessica.

We were halfway through the movie and I was so done. Jessica kept yelling and jumping, clutching onto Nash and Chase was watching her in amusement and I was stuffing my face with popcorn bored out of my mind.

Nash started whispering something in her ear, calming her down. She was half on his lap. I grabbed the popcorn bowl and headed to the kitchen.

I started to make a new bowl and sat on the counter munching it.

Chase walked in and I smiled.

" She's so dramatic" he shook his head amused.

" Tell me about it" I agreed.

" I kind of wish you were like that. So I could hold you and tell you that everything was going to be alright" he said.

" It's not even scary" I said " And you can still hold me".

He walked towards me and kissed me passionately, his arms wrapping around my waist.

I felt his tongue explore my mouth and his hand slip under my shirt. I moaned and he pulled back.

" Shh" he whispered pressing his finger to my lips.

" Sorry".

He pressed his lips to mine again, biting my lip gently. I supressed my moan this time.

" Unbelievable" a voice said.

We pulled apart abruptly, Chase taking a large step back. We stared at Jessica's shocked face, her jaw open in surprise.

c h a p t e r t h i r t e e n

" We can explain" Chase rushed.

" Who knew you two were screwing each other? " Jessica said.

" Nobody is screwing no one" he murmured.

She gaped at him unbelieving. Raising a perfectly arched brow.

" All this time" she shook her head " Your bickering and hatred for each other was a ruse".

" This just started" I said annoyed.

Her theories were so stupid. It hurt my head.

" You are in no position to show me attitude" she smirked at me " I wonder if Nash knows".

She stroked her chin thoughtfully. Chase's face dropped and I hated her more than ever for doing this to him.

" Please don't tell him" I said hating myself for begging.

" Nash and I have a relationship of trust and honesty. We don't keep secrets and this is a pretty big secret" she said.

I sighed in exasperation.

" Name your price" I said.

She rubbed her chin again.

" Well I always wanted a slave" she said.

" No way" Chase shook his head " I will not let you use her. I won't stand for it".

" I'll do it" I sighed.

She smirked and grabbed the popcorn bowl " I'll pick you up tomorrow morning for our day of fun".

She walked out and I rubbed my eye wearily.

Chase pulled my hand from my face.

" Don't cry" he whispered

" I'm not a baby" I smiled.

He sighed deeply, his hair flying above his forhead. He rubbed my arm pulling me to his chest " I'll find dirt on her and we'll get through this".

I nodded feeling his hand softly stroke my hair.

I went to bed dreading tomorrow.

I heard an obnoxious honk three times back to back.

I got out of bed groggily. Jessica was here all prim and proper 6 on the dot.

I hurrily got dressed. I got in the car yawning.

" Why are you here so early? " I asked.

" I have cheer leading practice today" she said.

" What did you need me for? " I asked.

" You can distribute water to me and the girls" she said.

I spent the morning sitting on the bench watching the lacrosse team and the cheer leading team practice. They had a game tonight, hence the early practice. It was usually after school.

" Water" Jessica snapped her fingers.

I jogged over to her wanting to smash the bottle against her face.

Nash jogged over here.

" What are you doing here Lex? " he asked.

" Lexi had so much fun last night. She couldn't resist spending more time with me" Jessica wrapped her arm around my shoulder.

" Seriously? " Nash surprised.

" Totally" I lied.

Nash grinned, wrapping a sweaty arm around both of us " My two favorite girls getting along".

Practice ended and the bell rang signaling the start of school. I sighed in relief and turned to walk.

" Lexi dear, be a sweetheart and take my books to class" she said.

I grabbed her bag along with mine, I found her crumpled schedule and found her class.

I walked into her class and saw Chase sitting at a desk his hair wet from the recent shower after practice. The class was slightly filled.

" What are you doing here, Lex? " he asked his eyes lighting up with the sight of me.

" Jessica" I lifted her bag.

His face dropped " That's why you were here at practice".

I shrugged " Where is her desk? "

He pointed at a desk. A cheer leader came in and sat on Chase's desk her skirt rising. I stared annoyed. Did she have no class?

" What do you want Mandy? " he asked annoyed.

" To talk" she traced her finger on his shoulder.

" I'm not interested" Chase said.

" You were pretty interested a couple weeks ago. In fact if I recall you said lets do it again" she said.

I turned around disgusted. If this was how girls acted around Chase I didn't want to hear more.

" Stop Mandy. I have a girlfriend" he said.

I turned around surprised.

" Who? " Mandy asked.

" She doesn't go here" he said.

She got off his desk and walked away. I walked towards his desk.

" That was sweet" I smiled.

" I wanted you to know. All that stuff is behind me now" he said earnestly.

I touched his shoulder. It was all I could do now.

I walked to class the second bell ringing. I was officially late to class.

" Well this is all my homework" Jessica said handing me a stack of books at the end of the day.

" I'm a junior" I said dumbstruck " How am I supposed to do senior homework? "

She must have lost all her marbles.

" You can ask your boyfriend for help" she said flipping her hair over her shoulder.

I was ridiculously pissed and walked out of school, carrying Jessica's homework. I was going to have to pull an all nighter.

" Hey Lexi" Chase touched my shoulder.

I shrugged his hand off.

" What's wrong? " he asked his grey eyes confused.

" Jessica's homework is what's wrong" I said.

" That bitch" he muttered " I'd love to help you but I have a game".

I shrugged and walked away.

He flipped me around, staring deeply at me. His shoulders placed on my shoulder.

" I'm going to find shit on her. Trust me" he said.

I looked away. We should have been careful. Our hormones got ahead of us I shouldn't have even looked at him with Jessica under the same roof.

" Lexi tell me you trust me" he pleaded " I won't play well without your support. I wish you could come"

I felt his grip on my shoulder tighten in desperation.

" I trust you" I nodded.

He smiled hugging me to his strong chest.

I went to my room and got started on her homework.

I stared at the clock. It read two o' clock and I was nearly done. I felt my eyes lids begin to shut.

" Lexi" someone whispered, gently shaking me.

I opened my eyes slowly, staring at Chase's beautiful face. I touched his face, before noticing the spilled books on my chest.

" I did it" he grinned " Jessica will leave you alone"

" How? " I asked.

" Don't worry" he whispered " Want me to rip her homework? ".

I shook my head " I worked hard on it".

He closed the books and my laptop. He placed it on my desk, then proceeded to tuck me in. He kissed my forhead.

" Good night beautiful" he said against my neck.

I fell asleep wondering just how he managed to shut Jessica up.

c h a p t e r f o u r t e e n

" So are you going to tell me? " I asked.

" Tell you what? " Chase asked his eyes drifting away from me.

" What dirt did you have on Jessica? " I whispered leaning closer.

We had barely touched since that night with Jessica. Chase was remaining extremely distant barely making eye contact.

He picked up his phone and started texting. I snatched it from his palm.

" Give it back Lex" he lunged for my hand.

I dropped it down my tank top. His hand instinctively touched my chest, before he pulled back like he got burnt.

" Tell me what was it" I said.

" I won't tell you so stop wasting your time" he snapped.

" Then tell me why you're pushing me away" I demanded upset.

I missed him.

" Because I'm being cautious since you seem to have thrown that out the window" he whispered harshly.

" He's asleep" I said referring to Nash.

He leaned forward his finger brushing my skin. I felt a shiver run up my back. I interlinked our fingers.

" Lexi we have to be cautious. I want you too but you have to cool it down okay? " he asked softly.

I stared at him glumly. All this was so unfair if it weren't for Jessica he wouldn't be so paranoid " Fine I'll tone it down".

He smiled slowly " Maybe later".

I pulled out his phone and handed it to him.

He went back to texting and I climbed upstairs to my room.
