The Babysitter

Chapter 32: (Aubrey's POV)- No More Kisses

After that incident, where for some reason, the cat got my tongue and I wasn't able to tell Peter to get his hand off of me, Xavier went up and locked himself in his room. Mature, I know.

I decided against going up there, giving him time to cool off. It was now dinner time and he still hadn't come down. "Xavier!" I called out from the bottom of the stairs, but he didn't answer. I went a few steps higher, thinking he didn't hear me. "Xavier, can you come down?" I called out but no, no response. I went all the way and knocked on his door after listening to see if he was in the shower but not hearing any running water. "Xavier?" I knocked thrice but still nothing, nada. I sighed before leaning against his door. "It's time for dinner and I'm kind of hungry! Hello?" I called out while closing my eyes.

Before I knew it, the door swung open, sending me stumbling back only to be caught in his arms. "Order yourself a pizza, leave me alone." Grumpy much?

"Ouch! What if I want your food?" I turned to face him while raising an eyebrow at him teasingly.

"If you were really hungry then it wouldn't matter whether it's mine or it's pizza," he deadpanned.

"Why so glum chum?" I pinched his cheek only for him to smack my hand away a little passive-aggressively.

"Don't fuck with me right now, Aubrey. Just leave me alone," he huffed in frustration.

"What are you so mad about? Did I do something?" I questioned in confusion, taking the situation seriously now.

"Did you do something? You called Peter Miller to my house!" he lashed out. I jumped a little but stayed rooted to my spot. "To what? Make me jealous?" he questioned.

"You called Julie, was that to make me jealous?" I smirked as he backed me up against the corridor walls.

"Don't act smug with me, Carthy," he ordered. What the hell is he gonna do?

"Or what Parker? What are you gonna do? Enlighten me I would love to—"
