BZZZ. BZZZ.
I walked out of the bathroom. Where was that damn phone? I looked around and finally found it, on the sofa. I grabbed it, and saw my screen light up with a picture of Leo and I, telling me he wanted to facetime. I sat down and accepted the call, and it swiped to show me him at home.
"Hey," I smiled. "Hey Ki," he replied. "What's up?" I asked him, wondering why he was calling. "Oh, nothing much really. I was bored, so I wanted to call you," he said back, chuckling. We talked for a few hours, and I was pretty lonely, so I asked him if he wanted to come over, and he agreed.
We ended the call, and around 10 minutes later, the doorbell rang. I ran over to the door and unlocked it, and saw him standing there smiling. He was wearing grey sweatpants and a black Tommy Hilfiger hoodie. He walked in, and we sat on the sofa together, just chilling out for a while.
"Hey, wanna make some cupcakes?" I asked him out of the blue, and he nodded. "Why not?" I pulled him out of the sofa and we made our way to the kitchen.
I looked through the cupboards for all the ingredients, grabbed some stuff out of the fridge, and placed them all on the counter. "Grab a bowl from that cabinet, and get the mixer from that drawer there, please," I told him. Once we got everything ready, we started to make the batter. I put the butter and sugar in a bowl and Leo combined them, while I beat some eggs, and put them in the mix, along with some vanilla extract. Then we added the flour and used the mixer to mix everything. Then I got the cupcake tray and added the cupcake liners, and we added the mixture into each liner using a spoon.
Leo put them in the oven to bake, while I started washing the dirty dishes. He put on some music, and I grinned. We started to dance and laugh, and it was pretty fun.
After a while, the cupcakes finished baking and we took them out slowly, and I put them on the cooling rack to cool for a while. While the cupcakes cooled, we started to make the frosting to decorate them. I mixed the powdered sugar and the butter and then added a splash of vanilla extract and then a tablespoon of milk. When Leo turned his back, I snuck some into my mouth, and it tasted delicious, but I added another tablespoon of milk until it was a smooth consistency.
I scooped up all of the frostings and added them into a piping bag. Leo started to pipe the frosting onto all the cupcakes, while I found a bottle of sprinkles and added them to all of the cupcakes.

We both took some cupcakes and sat on the sofa to eat them. We started talking about a lot of stuff, and soon the topic went on to family.
"So, what's your family like?" I asked her, curious. I knew she had her parents and two brothers, but that was it. Kierra's face lit up at the mention of them. "Oh, they are the best. Mom and dad were busy most of the time with the mafia, but they always made time for us, especially when we were younger. Then there were Elijah and Joshua, Josh the oldest of us three. Most people with siblings would have favourites, but I don't. They're just special in their own way, I guess. Eli is softer and Josh could make you laugh every time, but they're both very overprotective. They are both shit at cooking or baking though, that's my forte."
She paused with a smile and reached for another cupcake. She let out a soft giggle before continuing. "There was this one time, on my 16th birthday, when they tried to surprise me. I woke up to the smell of burning, and when I open my eyes, I could see them walking into my room with plates of food. One was a burnt plate of bacon, eggs, and blackened toast, and the other was a cake half-covered in icing and some sprinkles. The cake didn't taste that bad actually, but the eggs.... well they weren't edible, even they couldn't eat it. So we just decided to go out for some food. That that one of my favourite birthdays though, because it made me love them even more if that was possible."
She smiled contentedly, and we looked at each other until we both started laughing at her memory. They did sound like a good family though. "Anyways, enough about me. What about your family?" She turned to me and asked. "Uh, well. I'm an only child, and my parents were good. My mom was really sweet, she would've liked you. My dad was strict, but he could be nice sometimes, not that often though. They were killed a few years ago, by the Russian Mafia. I came home one night after practice and found them both on the floor. I always wanted to go find the Russians, but I was never able to." I finished talking, and I could see her sympathy but she didn't say anything.
We put on a movie and we changed the topic and started talking about a bunch of stuff, but I wasn't focusing on the conversation. Let's say I was... distracted. Ki had some frosting on her lips, and the longer I looked, the more I wanted to kiss her.
Wait...hold on.... kiss her? KISS HER?
What the fuck was I thinking? Why the hell would I kiss Ki? I mean don't get me wrong, anyone would want to when her lips were that gorgeous. She had Cupid Bow-shaped lips, and she was wearing her normal lip balm on it.143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡExvlLZjvBJ
But back to the point, she's one of my closest friends, why would I want to kiss her?
She kept talking about something that had happened in one of her classes, but once she noticed I wasn't paying attention, she turned her head and looked at me, her face turning into one of confusion when she caught me staring at her. "Yeah, yeah I'm fine. Sorry, what were you saying?" I shook my head trying to get rid of the thought of her lips and focus on what she was talking about.
"Oh, by the way, you have something on your lip," I told her, and put my thumb on her lip and wiped off the frosting, and her ocean blue eyes looked into mine, surprise evident in them.143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQRoFkca4eU
We stared at each other for what seemed like forever before we both started to lean in, still keeping eye contact. Her breath smelled sweet from the cupcakes, and all of my thoughts left my head as we were about to kiss.
"HOLA PEOPLE!" Someone entered the door and screamed suddenly.
We both jumped back suddenly, and I growled. "Fucking hell," I muttered under my breath. It was Tony. I glanced at Kierra, but she was looking anywhere except my face, and I sighed. Believe me, I do love Tony, but at that moment I just wanted to kill him.

What was that? WHAT WAS THAT? I was about to fucking KISS him. I didn't even know what was going on, but it sorta felt like we were in a different world, somehow. I looked at Tony to see what he wanted, and I could see him smirking, and I could see Leo glaring at him from the corner of my eye. Why was he even smirking? Did he see Leo and me about to kiss?
"Hey Tony, what's up?" I asked him, getting up from the couch and handing him one of the cupcakes. He bit into it and smiled. "Oh yea, the others asked me to call you both, but you didn't answer. So I came here," he told us, and I reached for my phone to see it was on silent. Whoops. "Well anyway, the girls wanted to go on a picnic to this place they knew. Apparently, it's a flower field. So, I have come here to bring you two, but it looks like I might have interrupted something." He finished with a smirk, and I blushed. Oh god, he saw us.
"Well okay then, I'm gonna go change, just give me 5 minutes," I said and quickly left the room. I looked through my closet and found a dress to wear. It was this really pretty blue dress that finished a little under my knee and had a white floral design. I found a pair of sneakers and put them on too. I sprayed some perfume on and then walked out to find the guys chilling on the couch talking about something. When they heard me coming, they looked my way, and I could see Leo's eyebrows raise slightly, and I smiled to myself.
"Alrighty then, let's go," Tony said and we all went out and went to Tony's car. I made my way to the backseat while the boys sat in the front, with Tony in the driver's seat. "So where exactly are we going?" I asked after we had been on the road for a while. "Well the girls had decided on some field nearby, and they had packed some food for us to have some picnic? Apparently, it's a flower field." I nodded, knowing exactly where we were going. It was this amazing flower field we found a couple of years ago, and always used to go to, especially during the springtime when all the flowers would start to bloom.
After about 20 minutes, we stopped the car and walked out.
It was simply beautiful. The ground was vibrant, with purple and pink flowers everywhere, with dandelions and bright yellow sunflowers scattered everywhere. The sun was getting ready to set, making the sky a purple-pink colour. The blossomy scent wafted through my nose, and there was a soft breeze flowing around.
