Chapter 26 Bailey's pov The sound blares in the room so loud it made me wince . My eyes snapped to the lit up phone and panic surged in . My palms on Kaleb's chest push him off me roughly as I roll off the bed , my knees falling to the floor as I grab my phone and put it on silent . But it was too late . Mira already heard . Kaleb ? Was that Bailey's phone ringing in your room just now ? " Her tone held a suspicious edge that made my heart pound . I clench my eyes shut , praying that she would drop it . Kaleb lifted himself on . one elbow , looking at the door . " Clean out your ears Mirabella , you heard wrong . " There's a pregnant pause before Mira spat . " I know what I heard you asshole . What's Bailey phone doing in your room ? Is she in your room ? " The accusation made me grow cold and guilt swam in my being . Kaleb sat up , looking over at me while I pleaded with him using my eyes . He sighed , running a hand through his messy hair that I had been tugging without knowing . " She's not in here Mira neither is her phone . Why would Bailey be inside my room in the first place ? " Kaleb gave out a low snort as he eyed me on the floor . He looked , amused by the situation . It's quiet for a few before she responded . " Then if that is true , open your door . " My eyes nearly bulge out of their sockets as I stared at Kaleb in panic . I could jump out of his window and climb down the tree . But that might take a while and she may see me . Mira rattles the knob in impatience . " If you have nothing to hide , open the door or I'm calling dad and mom . " Her threat made goosebumps rise on my skin as sweat also seemed to kiss my flesh . Gosh even my hair started to cling to my face . " Help . " I mouthed at Kaleb who pointed at his closet . I gave him the ' are you serious ' look and he mouthed ' trust me '. I got to my feet , deciding to trust him since he was an expert in hiding girls . The thought left a bitter taste in my mouth but I cupped it and entered his closet , closing the door gently . It's dark in here but somehow the scent of his clothes comforted me . I gripped my phone , pressing it closer to my chest as I peeked through the cracks of the closet door . I can see Kaleb getting off his bed and I bit my lip as I saw the flex of his back muscles . God even his back muscles look sexy as fuck . Okay fine , " He uttered , sounding confident that he would be able to convince Mira that I was not here . I held my breath when he unlocks the door and pries it open , revealing my very suspicious best friend . My heart raced as my thoughts jumbled . Oh my God she will surely see me in the closet . I closed my eyes in a pin thing anyone would check ! Kaleb did me dirty for sure . Frustration . The closet is the first That bastard . As I seethed inwardly , I opened my eyes to make sure I could see her every move and prepare for the humiliation I would face soon . God she's about to tear me apart and break our friendship . My eyes blur with tears , and I pressed my lips in a frown to stop them from wobbling . She pushed Kaleb aside , glaring and scowling at him . " Your door was locked . It's only ever locked when you have a girl over . " She accused , her eyes looking around the room . 1209 nu , zo Jun 17 Chapter 26 " I locked the door because I was going to bed ," Kaleb snorted , left the door open and turn to Mira with his arms crossed . " There's no one here . " Mira's eyes narrowed and she marched over to his bed . She squat down and looked under his bed and Kaleb shook his head . " Why would Bailey even be in my room Mira ? Bailey out of all girls ? " He rolled his eyes and Mira lifted her head from the bed . What did he mean by ' out of all girls ? ' My eyes narrowed . " The girl hates my guts . You know that the most . " Mira is quiet and seem to be in deep thought . " But I swore I heard her ringtone in room when I tried calling her . " Her voice is now filled with confusion . Kaleb leaned against the door frame . " You heard stupid ." Mira scowled . " Don't call me stupid asshole . " Her eyes then flicker to the window and she grinned , getting up .
