Baby I'm A Sinner novel Chapter 46

He rolled his eyes. "Seriously? It's like he's five years old."

"I know right? Ugh, whatever. I don't want to start my winter vacation angry."

I opened the passenger's door and got in the car, and a few seconds later he did too. He then started the car and drove out of the parking lot.

"So are you two breaking up now?" he asked me once he stopped in front of my house.

"I don't know. He's been really getting on my nerves lately. Thanks for dropping me off, see you tonight. Bye."

"Bye."

He waited for me to get inside before he drove away, and I walked up to my room to pick some clothes to wear for tonight.

It was half past six when Noah stopped in front of my house once again to come and pick me up for the game. Harry, Lucas, and Eleanor were already in the back.

"Hi." I said as soon as I got in the car, and they all greeted me at the same time.

When we arrived at the stadium there was already a long line for the tickets, but luckily Noah had already bought tickets for everyone so we gave him the money after we found our seats.

It was kind of freezing, even though I had my parka on and all that.

"Imma go get some nachos. You want some babe?" Jake asked Harry, and I looked at Lucas, who was staring at the ice rink with a very concentrated expression.

"Sure." Harry answered and I asked Jake to get me some too.

When the game finally started, I had nachos in my lap and I was actually interested in the game.

"You okay?" I asked Lucas when I saw that he couldn't concentrate on the game.

"Yeah. Not really. Just a lot on my mind. Where's your boyfriend?"

"Uh...we got in a fight. So...we're fighting right now I guess. It's weird."

"Let's go outside so you can tell me about it."

"Really?"

"Mhm."

"Where are you going?" Noah asked me and Lucas told him that we were just going for a quick smoke but we'll be right back.

He guided me to an exit that was for those who wanted to smoke during the breaks. We got outside and he leaned against the wall.

"So why are you fighting?" he asked after he lit up his cigarette. I didn't ask for one, since he was probably going to offer me his.

"He got mad because I didn't sign up for the Germany student exchange. It's like I have to do everything with him. He's so exhausting."

"Are you guys going to break up?"

"I don't know honestly-"

"Do you love him?"

I remained silent. Did I love Luke? I had no idea.

"I don't know. I mean...I don't get butterflies with him. Never did."

He looked at me with a sad face and handed me the cigarette.

"So are um. Are Harry and Jake together?"

"Not that I know of. Did you figure out who you want to be with?"

"It's always been Eleanor but now that Harry might be taken I want him more. I know I'm such a twat for saying this."

"We all want what we can't have."

"That's true."

He pouted sadly and I smiled, going in for a hug.

"That makes sense. Alright then. We'll go buy a bottle of Vodka from the store across the street and then we'll go be hobos in a park." Jade laughed.

"Exactly."

The game started after that, and it was really funny watching the boys get worked up every time the Monarchs were close to scoring.

They scored two goals in the third period and the game ended 2-1 for us, so the whole stadium was ecstatic as fuck.

We left the stadium shortly after, and the first thing we did was go across the street to the supermarket to buy a bottle of Finlandia. I already knew the moment they bought it that I probably wouldn't drink from it since I didn't like the taste anyway and I definitely didn't enjoy the burn on my lips and throat.

"Where's the nearest park?" Jake asked as we started walking towards the parking lot so Noah and Zack could get their cars before they started drinking.

"There's one near my house." I suggested and then that was that.

Soon enough, Zack and Noah parked their cars in front of my house and I guided them to the small park two minutes away.

When we got there, Carly, Emma, Jade and I occupied the swings, and the rest of the boys with Eleanor sat down on the ground, Eleanor on Lucas' lap.

"So what are we doing for New Year's?" I asked once the bottle had been opened and everyone was passing it around.

"I think I'm going to throw a party at my place like usual." Noah answered and took a giant swig from the beer, not even flinching after. What the fuck?

"Won't your parents be home?"

"Nah. They're going to some charity gala bullshit."

"And your siblings?"

"They're probably going to stay at my grandma's, I don't know. Wouldn't be the first time they attend one of my parties though."

I shook my head and Noah frowned at me, not saying anything though.

"Do we have to bring alcohol?" Lucas asked.

"When did you ever have to bring anything at my parties?"
