Ace
It was Courtney's last week here and to say I was disappointed was an understatement. I was enjoying her company though I knew I pissed her off no end. My room wasn't that bad. It just needed dusting here and there so I would teach her some of my snooker tricks. I was glad I got to meet her. She's one of the nicest and down to earth people I know. Her smile and laugh just brightens up anyone's day, no I don't have a crush on her. I like her, but not like you are thinking.
The door closed to chatter and laughter. That's when I knew my sister had come home and Courtney was with her. I smiled pulling myself up off my bed heading out of my room to see what the commotion was.
"Hey girls how's things?"
They both looked up. "Ace. I thought you were at college all day?"
"Was damn Prof got called out so we had a free afternoon."
"So you thought you'd come home and annoy us?"
I grinned. "You know me all so well sis."
She rolled her eyes.
"Hey Courtney ready for our last week together?"
"I am. At least when it's over I won't have to see your annoying ass again."
Simone sniggered.
"You don't mean that cuttie "
"Oh yes I do, and stop calling me that."
"Why? You are."
"Leave Court alone Ace."
"Sure whatever." I looked at Courtney. "Sorry about Ash the other day he's got a big trap."
"It's fine forgotten."
"What dis Ash say and why the hell was that douche in our house?"
"Nothing come on Courtney, time's ticking."
She looked at Simone and mouthed a 'sorry' , as I pulled her away.
"I'm sorry. I didn't tell Simone about my beer and snooker party, my olds will go ballistic."
"It's fine. Ash is a jerk and what you do in your basement is your business."
I smiled as I opened my door. "There's not much to do, just dusting. It shouldn’t take you long, so we can play snooker after."
"Wow." She said looking around the room was lost for words.
"You kept it clean, and here I was thinking you'd make it hard on mf this last week "
"I could always do that if you want me to?" I said, grinning.
She looked at me with a bank expression on her face. As to say I don't think so.
"I'll let you get on with it. "
"So you're trusting me in here, on my own?"
"Hell no." I said laying in my bed. "I'll be on here keeping a close eye on you whilst I listen to some tunes." I answered putting my headphones in listening to some tunes.
She rolled her eyes and began to dust, taking everything off the shelves dusting them then whatever she'd taken off, dusting that to, before placing it back in the shelf. I watched closely to make sure and put everything back in its rightful place. I hate when people moved my stuff to god knows where its really annoying. That's the reason why I make this room as messy as possible so my stuff wouldn't get touched and end up somewhere totally different. But, she was doing a good job with putting them back in the exact place she'd taken them from. I wondered if she had a photogenic mind or something.
Once she had finished o turned my music off and looked at the shelves not a speck of dust sbx my belongings were exactly where they should be. I smiled. "You have a good memory, kid . You're the only one I know that puts my stuff back where it belongs."
She smiled a beautiful smile that wasn't forced like some I've seen.
"Thanks. I'm a perfectionist."
"I can tell. So, now we're all done let's go and play some snooker."
"Oh. I don't know." She said, unsure. "I have to get home and my brother wasn't too pleased last time."
I rolled my eyes. "What your brother don't know won't hurt him come on. Just a few games, then me or Simone will walk you back okay?"
"Okay." She sighed.
"Don't sound so enthusiastic. Come on."
She followed me out of the bedroom down stairs to the basement where I racked up the balls and we both took a shot.
She potted the first ball, so she went first when she missed one it went so on so forth, me showing her some tricks I'd learnt while playing.
I smiled. I liked times like this when she wasn't being sassy. Buf I also like the fierceness in her.
"What the hell Ace?"
Damn busted.
I looked up at my sister and smirked. "What the hell are you doing in here with Courtney alone?!"
"Playing snooker. "
"I can see that dummy, but I thought none if us were aloud in here?"
""You're not, Courtney is an exception. She cleaned my room extremely well may I add and I allowed her down here, so I can show her how a pro plays."
"Whatever."
"Wanna join? See if you two can whoop my ass. If you do, I'll let you and your friend's come down here and use my snooker table as long as you let me know, and I'm not here with my friend's deal?"
"Deal."
"Let me and Courtney finish this game, then it's two against one."
Simone smirked and agreed.
"So you agree Courtney?"
"Sure whatever."
Me and Courtney finished our game and all of us went to war.
Courtney
I looked up at my Simone crap what will she be thinking? Her brother allowing me down here and not her
"What the hell are you doing in here with Courtney alone?!"
"Playing snooker. "
"I can see that dummy, but I thought none if us were aloud in here?"
"You're not, Courtney is an exception. She cleaned my room extremely well may I add and I allowed her down here, so I can show her how a pro plays."
"Whatever."
"Wanna join see if you two can whoop my ass. If you do, I'll let you and your friend's can come down here and use my snooker table as long as you let me know and I'm not here with my friend's deal?"
"Deal."
"Let me and Courtney finish this game, then it's two against one."
Simone smirked and agreed.
"So you agree Courtney?"
"Sure whatever."
Ace and Courtney finished their game and we all had a well not so friendly game of snooker. He claimed we were siding against him and were cheating her on just a quick learner and Simone wasn't bad either. Simone has the luck last shot and the black slid effortlessly into the top pocket, we both squealed hugging each other as hd cursed.
And that's how me and Simone ended up winning the game and Ace pleading us for another game which we both denied and told him to suck it up before they both walked me home.
