Chapter 17 : I literally, legit, choked on my water.

"Admit it Oreo, you miss me." Aaron said smugly.

"Admit it Aaron, you're an asshole." I fired back.

Aaron's smile dropped from his face.

"So what are y'all doing today?" Nathan asked.

"I'm going to sleep." Ethan said.

"Me too!!" Nathan exclaimed, giving Ethan a high five.

"I have to spend time with my annoying cousins, they're coming over our house today.." Laurel whined, covering her eyes.

Joey laughed and patted her back.

"I'm going to watch a new show but I don't know which one.." I said and then added, "I also need to start a new book and take a shower and sleep and eat.."

"Must be exhausting." Aaron teased me, rolling his eyes.

"It is.." I sighed tiredly.

"It's okay, you'll get through it." Ethan assured me.

I nodded and then Nathan looked at Steve and Rose who are just sitting next to each other silently.

"What about you both?" Nathan smirked slightly.

"Umm," Steve coughed, his neck and face turning red, "we'll.."

"Yeah?" Ethan helped.

"Steve asked me out and we're going on a date." Rose grinned at us.

I literally, legit, choked on my water.

Aaron started patting my back trying to help me.

"Oh my god Ellie, help her!!" Ethan said dramatically.

Everyone else was staring at me wide eyed.

God, have they never seen a person choke before? Weirdos.

After my dramatic coughing session, I muttered a 'thank you' to Aaron for helping me even though him patting my back and laughing at me certainly didn't help.

Everyone was silent.

And then I freaked out.

"Oh my god! Finally! My ship!" I squealed.

"Congrats guys!" Laurel smiled.

"Congrats man." Nathan said to Steve.

"Thank you." Steve smiled at everyone.

"Oh my god, am I the only one with breathing problems?" I asked, still not believing it.

It's about damn time.

"Yes Oreo, you are, what's wrong with you?" Aaron asked, shaking his head.

"My ship is floating really far by now, and you're asking me why am I happy?" I glared at Aaron.

"What's your ship?" Joey asked.

"Are you serious?" I asked back.

"Yes?"

"Aww, you're so far behind Joey, it's cute." I chuckled.

"It's okay, I'll tell you later." Laurel smiled next to him.

Everyone engrossed in their own conversations and I texted Rose from across the table.

*be at my house by 6 maximum, when is the date anyways?*

Rose glanced at her phone and then texted me back.

*It's at 7 so I'll be at your house by 4:30*

*nvm, be there by 3.* I texted Rose.

*gosh, I dont need four hours to get ready!!*

*be there by 3. I'll tell Laurel too*

*okay, whatever..*

Rose has no idea what she's in for.

Does she really think she can get away without telling me the details of how he asked her out and what happened?

Or without me being sure that she looks cute?

Or without me trying makeup products on her?

Because hell no.

******

"That must be Laurel." I said to Rose as I headed downstairs to open the door.

I opened the door and in came Laurel with bags of I don't know what, "Where is Rose?"

"Hello to you too." I frowned.

"My room." I added as I pointed upstairs and we both headed up.

"Where are your parents?" Laurel asked looking around.

"Not home." I replied curtly.

After we entered my room, Rose took a glance at the bags and then wouldn't shut up.

"Guys, let me do my own makeup, please." Rose pleaded, knowing very well that it's not going to work.

Laurel has argued with her mom, since she will have some of her relatives over and is supposed to see them but she wanted to come here for Rose.

Rose sighed, "How did you convince your mom anyways?"

"They won't be coming over till six and I can be one hour late, it's not that big of a deal." Laurel explained, walking over to Rose, grabbing her by her shoulders, and pulling her down on the chair in front of my vanity.

"Don't worry Rose, you'll look really pretty by the end of this." I laughed at her horrified expression.

Laurel was starting to prepare the products we're using on Rose as Rose said, "Listen guys, if this is some sort of prank and you're gonna ruin my face because you like to joke, now's not the time."

I rolled my eyes, "Rose, honey, as much as I hate you, I can assure you we won't do that to you."

"Right? I've been waiting for this day more than you." Laurel chuckled.

"Me too, so shutup and answer our questions." I commanded as I walked over to the girls and Laurel started with the foundation that doesn't match Rose's face tone but we won't tell her that.

"What questions?" Rose whined annoyingly.

"These." Laurel said as she pulled out a paper from her bag.

Rose and I only stared at her in silence, surprised.

"What? You've never seen a girl do a list of questions for her best friend who's going on a date?" Laurel asked, shaking her head.

I just burst out laughing as Rose said "Oh god." and covered her face miserably.

"So first of all, what's the name of your ex?"

"Why does that matter?" Rose asked with an 'are you serious' look on her face.

"Shut up and answer." Laurel told her.

Rose looks really irritated "Jhonny."

"That's such a boring name." Laurel laughed.

"Shut up, he was cute." I defended.

"Then why'd they breakup?" Laurel asked wonderingly.

"Because he cheated on Rose." I shrugged.

"wha-? AND YOU'RE TELLING ME HE'S CUTE?" Laurel yelled as Rose high fived her.

"Jesus, I meant he was cute physically." I muttered.

"Can you now finish your stupid questions and let me get ready?" Rose asked smiling sarcastically.

"Oh yeah sure." Laurel answered.

"When did Steve ask you out?"

"Two days ago." Rose answered nervously.

Oh hell no.

Ouch.

I'm heartbroken.

"What?" I said in a low warning voice.

"Two days ago hahahaha." Rose laughed it off nervously.

"We're done. You're just telling me now? We're so done, it's over, bye Rose." I said with a hurt expression and stormed out of my room.

But before I made it outside fully, Laurel grabbed my shirt from behind and pulled me back.

"Now's not the time for your dramatic scenes Ellie." Laurel said.

"Right." I calmed down and we went back to Rose who's looking at us apologetically.

Good, she better feel bad about this.

Two full days, without informing us?

I can't believe this.

I crossed my arms as Laurel continued, "Where are you going tonight?"

"He didn't tell me, but he told me to dress casual." Rose said.

"Do you like him or love him?"

"What?"

"Answer me." Laurel said with a louder voice trying to intimidate Rose I guess.

"I don't-" Rose was cut off by Laurel.

"You hesitated." Laurel stated.

"I didn't even answer!" Rose yelled.

"Then answer!" Laurel demanded.

"For now, I like him only, like, really like him, but I know it's not love yet." Rose explained.

My mind drifted off to when Aaron told me Steve loves Rose, poor Steve, already in love.

"Hmmmm.." Laurel's voice trailed off.

"Are you finished now?" Rose asked lamely.

"No but we don't have much time, so whatever."

And then we started doing what we're acually here for.

Laurel worked on Rose's makeup and I started on her hair.

I'm only straightening it really, but Rose has so much hair, it will take so long.

"Let's play a game!" Laurel suddenly said.

"What game?" I asked.

"Would You Rather??" Laurel suggested.

"Okay, I don't start first though." I said.

"Sure, whatever, I will." Laurel said as she started thinking.

"Ummm, let's see........ oh! Would you rather eat Ethan's vomit or drink Nathan's pee?"

"Ew, Laurel, what the fuck?" Rose scrunched her nose up in disgust.

"I would rather drink Nathan's pee." I answered, laughing slightly.

"Why would you even answer that?" Rose asked.

"Because she's amazing and listens to her friend." Laurel glared at Rose.

Rose rolled her eyes as Laurel said, "Your turn." to Rose.

"Would you rather have no hands but get to meet every celebrity you want, or have no legs and not meet any celebrity ever?" Rose asked finally.

I raised my eyebrows, "There's no relation between any of the things you said."

"Just be amazing and listen to your friends." Rose used Laurel's words as she glared at her.

Laurel narrowed her eyes at Rose as she applied another eyeshadow color on Rose's eyelid, "No hands and meet every celebrity I want."

"Absolutely same, for sure." I said agreeing.

We kept on going like that until we were finally done with the hair and makeup.

Rose looked herself up close to the mirror and then squealed like a dumbass.

"Oh my god, guys!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!"

"Wow, she loves us again." Laurel said, referring to the fact that Rose has been super moody with us today.

"Oh shutup!" Rose said as she gave us each a hug.

"You really like it?" I grinned at Rose.

"Yes! I love everything, I feel really cute honestly." Rose blushed.

"Awww don't be shy, you really do look cute today." Laurel smiled at Rose.

Rose has always been known for being shy and cute. She's tiny, has a nice smile, a little voice and she always blushes. It's the cutest thing ever. Even though she's confident, she's always had that side to her.

She really does look so beautiful. Steve will be shocked.

"So, where's the outfit that you're wearing?" Laurel asked Rose.

"Oh, it's here." Rose said as she pulled her clothes out of her bag.

"Wait, I forgot to ask you, did you tell Steve to pick you up from here?" I said.

Rose laughed, "Ofcourse."

"And what did he say?" Laurel said.

"He said that y'all are crazy and that I don't need all of this to look cute." Rose responded.

"He's lying, he's saying that just to make you feel good about yourself." I smiled pitifully at Rose, joking ofcourse.

Rose, the dumbass, took it seriously though and just stood there in silence.

"Gosh Rose, I'm joking!!" I exclaimed.

"Oh okay, thought you were serious for a moment." In just a second, she's smiling again.

How will Steve put up with this when they get married?

Rose was changing her clothes right now, yes in front of us, we're all girls and she's wearing her underwear and bra, it's no biggie.

She's wearing a really cute outfit and after Laurel and I's approval of the whole look, we were finally finished and gathered in front of the door downstairs.

We took many pictures of Rose and we took selfies and we did everything but we're all just excited for Steve's arrival.

And then finally, we heard the doorbell.

We all opened the door.

Steve looked surprised for a second and then he looked at Rose who was standing in the middle and smiled.

They smiled at each other for a little too long until I coughed and Steve got startled.

"Hi." He said.

"Hi." Rose said back.

"Oh damn it, I forgot the flowers in the car." Steve panicked and then turned around and I assume he was going to head back to his car.

"Wait, Steve, you can give it to her inside, we'll stop bothering you now." I said laughing.

Steve grinned, "Alright."

He walked Rose to his car as we said, "Have fun and take pictures of everything." And they drove away.

"That was so cute." I stated.

"I know..." Laurel replied dreamily.

"I have to go home by the way, I'll see you soon?" Laurel said, grabbing her stuff that are on top of the couch and we said our boring goodbyes as she left.

Time to start a new series tonight.

Watching many series, eating and sleeping sounds like a plan.
