Touch Me While I Taste You

44 Arabella Rivera “| feel bloated.” Gwen moaned as she rubbed her stomach. She puffed her cheeks and blew out a breath while poking her stomach.

“It’s like | need to drop a load of shit. | think | ate too many fries at lunch time. Now I'm paying the price.” She continues to grumble while still poking at her stomach.

| peer at her stomach and feigned a look o f shock and poked her stomach softly. “It does look kind of bloated.

Maybe you should've taken that dump before school had ended?” | suggested.

Gwen scrunchies her face in repulse.” Eww as if. Shitting in school is like a no-n o zone. Besides | can’t sit on those cold ass toilet seats. They're uncomfortable and make my ass sore.” She grumbles.

A hot breath fans against the skin of my neck. “Is she always like this?” Mere “curiosity swam in Christian's voice as he ‘leans over toto whisper.

reanis over toto wmisper My eyes turn to his face. “So outspoken? Then yes. Definitely. In fact, you've seen nothing yet.” My brows scrunch in thought. “Well, | suppose | should say you haven't heard nothing yet. She’s leaning on the tad bit crazy side.” | nodded with a smile curving my lips.

Christian's bottom lip rolls in his mouth and he bites. “I suppose she’s considered one of the girls | should run away from.” He jokes.

| snorted. “Don’t be a fool, Gwen will catch up to you before you even so much a s blink. | mean, haven't you seen those legs? She could definitely outrun you.” Christian face switches into horror. | chuckle lowly. “I'm kidding Christian. Gwen's not that bad just has a little bit of loose screws here and there.” He looks over my head to Gwen who was still poking at her stomach.” Not exactly helping Ella.” “Guys | think | poked it too much, the shit is about to go down. | could literally feel it poking my ass hole.” Gwen interrupted Christian and I's little chat. | errupted Christian and I's little chat. | cringe while Christian’s face morphs into one of disgust.

School had just ended and we were making our way outside. With so many students scurrying like little ants to get out, | didn’t think they paid enough attention to Gwen to hear her words.

“Can you hold it or do you need tto go “No! No | can hold it.” She burst out as w e walked out of the school and get embraced by the afternoon sun.

Around this tthe sun was always surprisingly much hotter. But that could only just be m “See you on Monday guys!” The cheery sharp voice rang out. Samantha stood beside an open car door a s she waves. Her eyes fall on Christian who stood besideand her smile changes into one of shyness.

“Bye Christian.” She waves and got inside and a few ticking seconds later, drives away. | could be wrong, but | swore | saw a faint blush on her cheeks.

UAMVISITUIMETICS Dick” Christian curses out harshly.

Confused by his language and the blatant vexation in his voice, | turn to stare at him. His face tightened with the look of fury. Lips lined into anger and brows snapped together in frustration.

| looked at where his eyes seem to be glaring at and something flutters in my stomach as they fall on Haiden. He roughly opens the door of his truck and from across here, | could make out the movement of his lips.

He was no doubt letting out curses. He looked angry as he hopped into his truck and within a second, sped out of the school’s premises. Leaving everyone to stare at his reckless driving.

“His mom told him to givea ride after school since | can’t really make my way back has yet.” Christian hisses furiously as he glowered at Haiden’s skidding marks his truck tires left behind.

“Asshole leftstranded.” He curses.

| held my bag strap while turning to him and fixed on a smile. “Well you can catch a ride with us.” conde wir us.

Christian turns toand peers atin doubt. “Really?” | shrugged. “We're going that way anyway.” | mumble and walked down the steps.

Christian didn’t askhow | knew where he lived. | suppose he must've picked up on the fact that everyone knew where Haiden Cross lives. Many just didn’t know | was his neighbor seeing that I'm always cooked up in the house and studying. And it helped that | never pulled anyone's attention like Gwen did.

Besides neighbors talk and are sometimes acquaintances. Haiden and | are far from that. In fact, he’s the most calculating guy I've ever known.

“Are you sure I'm not imposing?” Christian continues to be uncertain as he follows Gwen and | to her pink convertible “Oh hush. It will be my pleasure to give a ride to my future brother-in-law.” Gwen turns around to wiggle her brows at the two of us. Christian coughs, clearing his throat.

troal.

My face quickly heats up as | caught on to her words. “Awe you guys are already so adorable. Blushing together.” Gwen pouts, eyes dancing with amusement.

“Didn’t you need to shit earlier?” | asked as a way to get her off our backs.

“Yeah so?” Gwen voiced out as she turns around quickly when she nearly stumbles.

“I heard when you talk too much, the poop comes out faster.” It was a lie. | didn’t even think that was possible.

But if it helped to get her off my back then I'd say anything even if it’s not scientifically proven.

“Oh crap, I'll shut it then. | didn’t wear panties today so that will make a mess.” | could hear the horror in her voice and didn’t know if to cringe or burst out into laughter.

Christian decides forby sniggering.” Then you'd be referred to as the girl who shart her pants.” | couldn’t hold it in and joined him. Gwen on the other hand didn’t think it was funny as she voiced it out. “Not funny funny as she voiced it out. “Not funny guys.” Doesn't feel too good being on the receiving end huh? “Don’t telllittle miss Ella is going to walkto my door?” Christian jokes as h e swings his bag strap over his shoulder.

| snorted as | slammed the car door shut. “Don’t kid yourself.” “Then why are you getting out of the car? ” He voiced out, looking down atin confusion.

Was everyone taller than me? | peered at my bland house and nudged m y chin towards it. “Because | live here.” Christian's brows raise in shock then he quickly school’s it by pinningwith a teasing smile.” So we're neighbors huh? Guess we'll be seeing a lot of each other.” He winks.

“You guys are so adorable | might just vomit. Scratch that, | might just shit on m e.” Gwen grunted e Gwen grunted.

| ain about to answer her but the sound of blasting music interrupts me. It was so loud that the vibration shook the little chain Gwen hang on the rearview mirror.

Didn't he leave before us? Why is he coming now? Haiden’s truck comes skidding towards his house. The closer he got, the louder the music got also, until it was almost unbearable. Christian winces while Gwen scowled at the shiny black truck.

We all snap our heads to the Cross’s house when the door suddenly parts. Out can angry Charlotte, face turning the shade of pink painting the anger she certainly felt. “Low down your music Haiden!” She scowled.

Haiden only gets out of his truck and slams the door shut after he puts off the music. “Oh fuck off.” He snaps, jaw clenching His eyes though, snap to me. The look they cast was dark and unwelcoming, but something hidden, something flickered i in those fuming depths. Something that made my skin tingle and heart leap.
