"You ratted me out!" I yelled angrily at Noah, getting to my feet. For a minute I forgot Travis might think I was a total lunatic.

"Yeah cause you losing control!" Noah shot back and I felt Travis stand up next to me. My blood was raging and boiling and it took everything I had in me to stop myself from throwing a punch.

"What the f--?"

"Shhh," I heard Travis cut me off taking my hand as he was on his feet too now. 

"Come on Azari," Noah continued frowning at me like I owed him my kidney. "We both know you been lying about your detention."

"Seriously, Noah? Its none of your goddamn business." I was clenching my wrist ready to swing a punch at him. 

"Maybe you guys should talk about this at home," Travis said firmly dragged me away from Noah before I could become violent. I couldn't believe it. 

"You didn't have to stop me from hitting him," I growled as Travis walked me back to the school halls. My forehead was wet with sweat, that's what happened everytime I got really really mad. 

Travis was looking at me with his eyes squinted like he was probably trying to figure me out or something. For a minute he kept quiet but then let out a sigh. 

"What?" I asked and he shook his head.

"Nothing," he replied taking a step towards me and leaned down to plant a gentle kiss on my forehead. In an instant, all my rage swept away. It was like it was never even there. 

"What was that for?" I bit my lower lip shyly as the feel of his lips still lingered on my skin. 

"For that look you give me everytime I kiss you," he smiled brightly and if we weren't standing in the school halls, with a bunch of kids around, I would have jumped on him, threw my arms around his shoulders and made out with him like there was no tomorrow. But ofcourse, I didn't do that so I just smiled like an idiot and got it over with.

"I can't believe it was Noah," Lana shook her head as she sat up on my bed. It was a miracle mom had agreed to let her stay over on a school night despite of me being grounded as fuck.
"And to think you always covered for his snitch ass!"

"I know right?!" I sighed turning on my side to look at her. It was almost midnight and we both were laying on my bed gossiping like typical teenagers.

"You should get back at him!"

I shrugged. "Nah, i cant be bothered. Screw him."

"It sucks you have to be grounded cause of him," she frowned.

"Yeah but the only thing is i miss Travis," i said blushing at the thought of him.

"Oooo," Lana smirked quickly grabbing her phone. "Lets give him a call shall we?"

"NO!" I quickly protested but it was already too late. She had the phone to her ear while my heart was preparing to explode itself.

"Here," she whispered softly putting her cell phone to my ear.

"Lana?" I heard his delicious voice on the other end of the phone and froze.

"Azari," I managed to squeak out and Lana rolled her eyes at me.

"He is your boyfriend for fucks sake," she frowned and I glared at her.

"Azari, hey," Travis's voice softened instantly. "Is everything allright?"

"Yes!" I replied quickly and Lana face palmed herself at my awkwardness.

"Its funny you know," Travis laughed giving me butterflies. Or caterpillar i dont know. "I was just thinking about you."

"Really?" I bit my lower lip and Lana was snickering at my blushing face. If I could, I would have smacked her in that moment but at the same time thanked her.

"Tell him you missed him," Lana whispered excitedly and I couldnt help but smile widely.

"Ofcourse."

"I missed you," I said suddenly and it came out a little less sexier than I was planning it to be.

"Aw man, I miss you all the time."

My heart jumped to my throat and I looked at Lana for help but she shrugged and tucked herself into bed. Fuck her.

"You do?"

"Do you ever stop asking questions?" He laughed so purely, I couldn't help but feel how hard I was falling for him.

"Nope, just helps me get to know you more," I said softly hoping to not disturb Lana. She was very specific about her sleeping schedule and got very grumpy if she didnt get enough sleep.

"Is that so? Then ask away. I'll answer anything for my girl."

MY GIRL.

"Uhh..your favourite colour?"

I heard him chuckle. "It wouldn't have been difficult to know that my favourite colour is black."

"Yeah, that was quite obvious. That is one thing about you that makes you mysterious."

"And you like mysterious guys huh?"

"Yeah its hot."

"Oh so you think Im hot?"

"Fuck. No-I meant.."

"So you don't think I am hot?"

"No, I do b-but that is not what I meant."

I loved how Travis laughed his hearty, joyful again. I never thought he would sound so cheerful all the time. "I love it when you get all nervous and worked up."

"You make me nervous," I whispered slowly and softly, my heart pumping hard against my chest.

"And you make me feel indescribable things." He replied in a low, raspy voice making my hair stand its ends. Butterflies fluttered in my tummy and I gulped realizing how my entire body was throbbing.

"It sucks your parents aren't cool with this."

"I know right. Hey, Travis?"

"Yeah?"

"Shouldn't we go to bed? It's almost 1 am."

"Are you tired, baby?"

"No but we have school in the morning so.."

"How about we fall asleep on the phone together?"

"You do know I am on Lana's phone right?"

He chuckled. "I am sure she wouldn't mind you using up her battery for one night."

Yeah, she probably wouldn't. I tucked myself into bed with Travis still on the phone with me. I had to be quiet and careful to not wake Lana up, cause if I did, my night-time-on-the-phone-romance with Travis would end and I did not feel like letting go just yet.

"I am totally imagining us cuddling right now," Travis whispered softly, and slowly, taking soft breaths between each word. He had no idea what his voice was doing to me.

"I am technically in bed with Lana, so it's a little hard to imagine you with her next to me," I whispered back making him laugh again. It was the best feeling in the world knowing you could make the boy you like laugh like that. Or maybe he was just making fun of me in the back of his head.

"Close your eyes and imagine me instead," he suggested and I did as he said.

"I can only picture you in your black Pajamas," I chuckled.

"Oh I am shirtless. Try picturing that," he sounded like he was smirking.

"W-what, No!"

"Be quiet will you!"Lana's voice scared the shit out of me. "Some people are trying to sleep here."

"Oh shoot. Did we wake her?" Travis said quickly.

"Yeah, I should be going now," I sighed.

"Awe man, I wish we could stay up all night together."

"Me too but we should sleep."

"Stay a while."

"Travis.."

"Not even if I tried to give you my best puppy dog face."

I was smiling so hard to myself as I pictured him pouting at me. He was so adorable and he didn't even know it.

"Nope. I am immune to those." I lied, cause I wasn't.

"Ha ha. Fine. Sweet dreams, Azari. See you tomorrow."

"Goodnight Travis."

"Goodnight, babe."

After I disconnected the call, I saw Lana's phone screen showing multiple unseen notifications. But only one out of them caught my eye. 10 messages from Jay Parker. I glanced at Lana to see her fast asleep again and I was tempted to check her texts.

Ugh, but I didn't. What if he was her mystery guy? But I thought she hated him. Guess I will have to ask her in the morning.
