Chapter 12
Yelena woke me up with a pillow to the face. I quickly woke having the shock of adrenaline course through my body, causing me to jump up which earned her a death glare from me.
She was still standing on my bed laughing her head off, so I had the chance to grab her feet, and judging from the horrified expression she had, I knew she was going to prepare for what's about to come.
I grabbed her left foot and swiped my left foot to her right causing her to fall off my bed, I quickly wrapped my arm around her neck in a chokehold position.
I felt two taps on my elbow, I knew she was surrendering, I let go of her neck which she then kneeled on floor trying to grasp for air.
A few minutes of deep breathing, she finally regained all the air she needed and looked back at me with an exasperated look.
"Hey! Don't look at me like that, you're the one who woke me with a pillow." I snicker as she tried to stand up, touching her neck to check for bruises.
"Well I didn't know you wanted to kill me." She grumbled.
"Im sorry, the reflexes." I shrugged it off but I started to feel guilty that I hurt her that hard.
"You could've just told me you wanted me dead, I would agree anyways." She said rolling her eyes in a joking manner.
"Well I wouldn't want to have any record of me murdering someone when I take my law examination."
"You want to take law?"
"Yep that's the plan, I actually want this and both of my parents approve it, so here I am."
"Are you sure that's not gonna change?"
"No, I'm actually not, but that's course I'm choosing then after that maybe I'll just wing it."
"How about one of those instructors who teaches people to fight? Cause this still hurts" She said pointing at her neck.
"That's the third option, and I didn't even squeezed my arm tightly, how could it hurt."
"What's the second one?"
"A Ballet teacher." I said without missing a beat.
"Wait you do ballet?" She said with a quizzical look, visibly looking at me with disbelief.
"Why does everybody not believe me when I say I do ballet." I said in a slight irritation.
"Well you don't look like the type to wear tutu's and all that girly shit." She jokingly said handing me my uniform I left on my desk.
"Our uniforms include a skirt dipshit." I found it so ridiculous that we had to wear skirts but it's the dress code, and I don't want to get sent to the office in my first day here.
"I doubt you could pull it off, though I'm not taking my chances on making that bet."
"You'd definitely lose." I said as she glared at me.
"What just saying." I laughed raising my hands as a surrender.
"Anyways, what time is it?" I just remembered that I forgot to check the time when she woke me up.
"It's almost six, let's hurry up and save a table before we don't have anywhere to sit."
"Yeah lets go."
I stood up and went to find my shoes since the recent escapade that happened a while ago. I tied them and looked at myself at the mirror on my wall and was quickly interrupted by Yelena appearing behind me.
"Don't forgot your wallet again cause I'm lending you any money." She laughed at she threw my wallet at me.
"Are you sure I'm the mom or you?" I joked knowinv she called me a mom earlier.
"I'm saving my money and saving you from embarassment later." She laughed, I definitely know she's up to something.
"And why do you need to save me from embarrassment?" Now I certainly suspect something because she didn't answer me.
We went out of our dorm and Yelena locked the door. We were gonna take the stairs since we saw a lot of student lining up to use the elevator, and when I say a lot, I meant A LOT.
"Woah that's alot of people."
"I know, It's always during dinners that the elevator gets cramped." Yelena said slightly annoyed.
"Let's use the stairs."
"Race you?"
"Sure."
Yelena and I raced down the stairs and into the cafeteria. I asked Yelena to go ahead in line while I search for an unoccupied table, and thank god there was one.
I waited for Yelena to arrive with her tray and she could switch with me, so I can order mine. I also waited for Pepper and her roommate since they were nowhere to be seen.
A few moments later Yelena arrived with her tray and of course a bottle of sprite, and behind her I saw Pepper but I was confused when I saw Wanda. I put two and two together, and looked at Yelena with an annoyed look.
"You didn't tell me Pepper's roommate was Wanda." I whisper yelled at Yelena as she sa beside me.
"Well I did tell you, you'd find out later and that later is now." She snicker.
I punched her arm causing her to yelp, earning me a quizzical look from Pepper and Wanda.
"Hey guys, sorry we're late the elevator was packed." Pepper said.
"Hey tasha, Hey Yelena." Wanda waved.
"Hey Wands." I waved back.
Yelena looked at me clearly smirking and squinting her eyes, I can already tell what she was gonna say but I wasn't gonna let her have her way so I kicked her leg causing her to yelp.
"Hey! I didn't even do anything." Yelena exclaimed.
"Im gonna get some food, wanna come?" I stood up diverting my attention to Wanda and Pepper.
"You guys go ahead, I'll give Yelena some company." Pepper said shooing us away.
I gave them a suspicious look, now I definitely knew they were up to something. I shrugged it off as Wanda and I went to line up to the register.
"Hey Wanda?"
She hummed in response, biting her nail of the thumb, which I assumed is a nervous habit.
"Are you free on saturday?"
"Yeah I am, why?" She looked at me and smiled.
"Well uhm... Do you want to go on a date with me?" I said closing my eyes as I faced her, fearing of rejection.
"I would love to."
And there it is, my heart stopped as I opened my eyes. I just couldn't contain my happiness that I just stared at her with a smile. I managed to snap out of it and we just stayed silent until we stopped infront of the register.
We got our trays and walked back to thr others. I barely hide my smile, so I just sat next to Wanda, and took my phone out to text her. I heard a small ding from her pocket that caused her to jump a little but just laughed it off. She took out her phone and proceeded to text me back.
Tasha<3: do you think they know?
Malysh<3: i think?
Malysh<3: i mean i talk to pepper about you so that's that
I looked up to my phone and glanced at Wanda with an impressed and cocky look, causing a tiny blush to appear across her face.
Tasha<3: you talk about me? ¬‿¬
Malysh<3: shut up
Malysh<3: can we text later? I wanna eat XD
Tasha<3: Sure XD
"We know you're both texting eachother." Yelena deadpanned.
"Well shit." I whispered to myself, earning an unapproved look from Wanda. Damn it she heard me.
We ate our dinner in silence with a few jokes thrown by Yelena here and there. Some petty arguments about who's the better looking between me and Yelena, only making Pepper and Wanda laugh at our ridiculous antics.
"Okay, but I still can't believe you do ballet." Yelena said recalling our last conversation, which made Wanda spoke up in interest.
"I know right!" She giggle which I found it cute.
Pepper looked at me, not believing them. "You do ballet?"
"Seriously? Do I not look like I do ballet?"
"Nope." They simultaneously said causing me to find this ridiculous. Then I remembered what Wanda said.
"Uhuh says the one who said my body was hot." I smirked at Wanda and saw her face turn red.
"You think she's hot, damn Wanda you got it bad." Yelena teased making Pepper to laugh hysterically.
"I mean look at her, who doesn't think she's hot?" She tried to excuse herself.
"Well I'm hotter." Yelena confidently pointed at herself.
"You tell yourself that." I laughed.
"Is everyone against me or something?"
"Nah you're just too flamboyant sometimes." Pepper laughed.
"Flamboyant is such a big word for a short person." Wanda laughed.
"Hey I'm not short! Your shoes just make you look taller." Yelena protested.
