Chapter dedicated to as requested! Go give her a follow, along with me! :)

•••••••••••

I wake up to an empty bed.

Wheres Mason?

I slowly get up, wrapping a robe around my body.

I brush my teeth and complete my usual morning routine.

'Hey Babe, sorry about the early leave. I had to run out quickly but I'll be home soon. I love you

-Mason'

I smile at the note, slipping some socks on and making my way downstairs to feed Bella.

She runs down the stairs, right after me and jumps at my feet, seeing the bowl.

The house is eerily quiet, not a sound besides Bella eating.

Its very rare the house is completely empty at 9:00 in the morning.

I shrug, preparing myself a large cup of coffee and sitting down on the couch, grabbing my book.

"Leah?" I hear the door open.

"In the family room" I call, taking a sip of my coffee.

A couple minutes later he comes in, kissing the top of my head.

He sits next to me, picking me up and placing me on his lap.

"What are you reading?" Mason mumbles into my hair.

"That book I started. One of Us Lying" I show him the cover.

"How is it?" He draws circles on my stomach.

"Its really good. Definitely one of my favorites. I'm on page one hundred and seven" I shiver.

"Damn girl, you read that ish fast" He laughs.

"Yeah" I fold the corner, saving my spot and place the book down.

"What are you wearing?" Mason laughs, picking at the silky material.

"What? You don't like it? Its just a robe that I threw on this morning" I frown. "Most guys would be drooling over this" I smirk.

"Oh, trust me I am. Its just you never tie it in the front like that" He smirks.

"Mhm, so?" I cross my arms.

"Whats under it?" He fumbles with the tie, causing me to laugh and swat his hand away.

"See with your eyes not your hands, sweetheart. You made fun of me, therefore you don't get to know" I shrug, standing up.

"No, I was just kidding. Please don't leave" He holds his hand out and I walk away.

I jokingly make a 'tsk' sound and I go to place my mug in the sink.

"Babe, do you want to go out tonight?" He comes up behind me, spinning me.

"What? You think buying me a meal is going to make me forgive you?" I cross my arms, leaning against the counter.

"Mm, I could think of other things that would make you forgive me, but no. I want to do this out of the kindness of my heart" He places his arms on either side of me.

"Hm, no. Thats wrong. I'm mad at you. I'll see you tomorrow" I push past him, going up to his room.

"What? Where are you going?" Mason calls.

I grab my bags and car keys as extra effect to the joke and make my way downstairs.

"What are you doing? Leah" Mason stops me.

"I told you, I'll see you tomorrow. I'm going home" I try and move out of his way.

"You're cute" He takes the key out of my hand and my bag off my back.

"Fine" I shrug, grabbing his keys and getting into his car.

"Are you actually mad at me?" Worry fills his eyes.

"Ask me tomorrow" I smile, starting the car.

"No" He opens the door and unbuckles my seatbelt, prying me out of the car.

He turns it off, shoving the keys in his pocket.

"Are you actually mad at me?" He asks me again.

"Well, I was just messing with you, but I'm sure I can find a reason" I smile.

"Fück, I actually got scared" He shakes his head.

"You brat, where would you have gone if I let you?" He laughs.

"I would have gone to Dunkin', got a few donuts, maybe a coffee for you" I smile.

"Dämn, I should have let you go" He smiles, kissing my cheek.

"Lets go inside, we need to get you out of the public eye in this oh, so scandalous outfit" He winks.

"And in your eye is better?" He raise an eyebrow.

"Why yes it is. You, my dear are the lucky one. You get to date this hunk of man" He smirks, his ego getting bigger by the second.

"Oh shut up" I laugh, not wanting it to grow any larger.

"You love you" He teases me.

"Unfortunately, yes I do" I sit on his bed.

"So yes to the date tonight?" He asks, taking his hoodie off.

"Yes to the date tonight" I nod.

"Nice, I vote you wear that" He smirks.

"Oh shut up. I'm going to change" I shake my head, grabbing clothes out of my bag.

I run into the bathroom before Mason can protest and change into the blue velvet shorts and grey tank top.

"Damn girl, you look cute" Mason smiles, kissing my forehead.

"Why thank you" I blush, sitting on the floor.

"What are you doing on the floor?" Mason looks down at me.

"I don't know. I'm trying to think of what we can do until then" I shrug.

"We can go see JD" Mason suggests.

"No, I can do that later. I don't want to drag you there" I laugh.

"Its okay" Mason shakes his head.

"I'm serious. How about we order some Shake Shack and play a board game?" I ask.

"That sounds great. I could really go for a nice burger" Mason nods, taking out his phone.

He quickly orders our food and we talk until it comes.

"I'll get it" I laugh, grabbing my money and heading towards the door.

"We have a shack burger, a ten piece nuggets and two fries. That will be $15.70" The guy reads, handing me the bag.

"Thank you so much, have a nice day" I smile, taking the bag from him.

"You too hot stuff" He smirks.

"Babe, are you coming?" Mason yells.

"Yeah, be up in a minute" I call back.

"I have a boyfriend. Maybe you'll have better luck next time" I roll my eyes, closing the door.

"Are all delivery guys døuches?" I huff, placing the bag on the table next to the game.

"Woah, what happened?" Mason furrows his eyebrows.

"'You too hot stuff' is my problem" I mock, rolling my eyes.

"What? He said that?" Mason stands up.

"Yeah, then you called, ironically and I told him 'I have a boyfriend. Better luck next time' and closed the door" I shake my head.

"Hey, thats my girl" He laughs. "I didn't know you could be so brutal, dämn baby" He smiles.

"Lets just eat, please" I laugh, handing him his food and getting out mine.

We play a couple games, laughing with each other.

"I have to go home tonight. I'm opening and closing for the next three days" I throw my head back.

"You can do that?" Mason looks at me, shocked.

"Yeah, Sydney has a wake and funeral for the next three days so she asked if I could open and close during them" I explain.

"Le, thats a lot" Mason looks at me, confused.

"I know, she knows it too. Thats why she's paying me double for all three days. I need the money, I want to get another job. But at least this will cover two months work of rent" I say.

"Then, you're taking the days after off. Plural" He sternly says.

"Okay dad" I roll my eyes.

"Mhm, thats right" He smirks.

"Ew, gross" I throw a leftover fry at him.

"Want to go for a swim?" Mason suggests.

"Yeah, sure" I nod, standing up.

"I'll meet you in the pool" Mason grabs his bathing suit, leaving a kiss on my lips.

I change into one of Ellie's bikinis since I didn't bring one and then meet Mason in the pool.

"Dämn girl, when did you get that one?" Mason whistles.

"Stop, its your sisters" I wrap my arms around my body.

"Eh, eh, eh, you know how this goes. I've seen more of you than this, babe. Stop it" He removes my arms, placing his hands in mine.

"Well when you make comments like that" I whine.

"It should make you feel good, confident. Thats what I'm here for Le" He spins me.

"You know me better than anyone Mas" I purse my lips together, raising my eyebrows.

"You right, you right" He nods.

I swim over to the seat, letting my muscles soak in the heated water.

We talk until our fingers prune up and then we head inside.

"You can shower first" Mason rubs his towel through his hair.

"No, its okay. You go in" I urge him in.

"Leah, just go in. I'm going to make us some coffee" He kisses me on the cheek and then leaves.

I quickly grab some spandex, some undergarments and one of his t-shirts and jump in the shower.

After showering I go over to Ellie's room while Mason showers.

"Ellie" I knock on her door.

"Come in" She calls.

When I walk in she's sprawled out on her bed, computer in front of her and Grey's Anatomy on the screen.

"I love this show" I lay next to her.

"Did you guys?" She nods at my shirt.

"What? No. I showered because we went in the pool. Get your head of out the gutter, Elizabeth" I laugh.

"Sorry, I just assumed" She laughs, pressing play on the show.

We watch it until Mason barges in.

"What are we watching?" He ruffles his wet hair.

"Grey's. Put a shirt on" Ellie rolls her eyes.

"Nice, never seen it. I bet Leah's fine with me not wearing one" He smirks.

"Yeah, well I'm your sister. Put a shirt on or get out" Ellie raises her eyebrows.

"You're so annoying" He huffs, grabbing a shirt and coming back in.

"Happy?" He mocks her.

"Very" She smiles and resumes her show.

"Want to all watch a movie?" I suggest.

"Yeah, that sounds great. Lets go in the family room though, theres more room" Ellie nods.

"I'll make the popcorn" Mason winks at me, gravitating towards the kitchen.

"I have him" I shake my head, laughing.

"You and me both" Ellie turns the tv on.

"Drinks?" Mason yells.

Ellie and I both yell back saying we want water and soon Mason walks in, popcorn bowls and water in his hands.

"I could have helped" I grab some water from him to make it easier.

"Its not a big deal. I was ten steps away" He laughs.

"What are we watching?" He pulls me into his lap.

"No, this is my couch. You two go over there" Ellie pushes us.

I laugh, sitting on the other couch as Mason sits next to me.

I grab a handful of popcorn and chuck it at Ellie.

"Bįtch" She laughs, throwing some back.

Mason smiles, hugging me to his chest, his chin on my shoulder.

Bella runs over and eats all the popcorn off the floor before jumping into my lap.

We put on a movie about some teenagers who are going into college.

It was pretty decent, the popcorn was good though.

"What are we doing now?" I ask, adjusting the t-shirt.

"Mm, I don't know" Mason squeezes my thigh, causing me to jump.

"Stop it" He's been doing that, drawing on my stomach and back throughout the whole movie and his hands are freezing.

"Dämn girl, okay" He laughs, holding his hands up.

"Lets go out now. Go get ready" Mason suggests.

"Okay, I'm taking your car though" I laugh.

"No, I'm helping you. I have better clothes" Ellie laughs, grabbing my hand and pulling me up the stairs.

"Okay, so its not that fancy, so I think this black romper will be perfect. Its a little on the small side but Its going to be so flattering" Ellie rambles, her eyes bright.

She pulls out a skimpy black romper and bralette.

"Throw this on and then I'll do your hair" She smiles, rummaging through her closet.

I change into the outfit, my eyes falling out of my head when I see how showy it is.

"I love it" Ellie smiles.

"Yeah, well I don't. Ellie, my boobs are popping out. Its practically bursting at the seams" I shout.

"No its not. It shows your curves perfectly. I love it. Now put these on and sit" She hands me red wedges. Now those I like.

I slip them on while letting Ellie do my hair.

I do some simple makeup, my usual and put on some red lipstick.

Ellie curls my hair into loose waves, giving it a beach look.

"All done" Ellie claps.

That only took an hour.

"Le, what time do you think you'll be ready by? I want to make a reservation" Mason knocks on the door.

"I'll be done soon. Finishing up" I call back, putting some jewelry on and sunglasses on my head.

"Okay" Mason says, walking away.

I finish up and head downstairs. Mason is leaning against the island, his back towards me.

"Leah, you look stunning. Absolutely beautiful" He kisses my cheek.

"Thank you, you look great too" I smile, he really pulls those pants off.

Mason is in a short-sleeved creme button up and some plaid pants. His hair has more volume than usual but still looks perfect.

"Thank you, um. Are you ready?" He says.

"Yeah, yeah" I nod.

"Wait, picture" Ellie yells. We quickly take a picture and then head out the door.
