always plenty of food.” He smiles at me.
“No, I mean are you sure you want me to come?”
“Yes, ” he replies, looking at me with an expression I can’t quite read. Although I can tell he’s being sincere.
“Okay, I’ll just go get dressed, ” I say excitedly, and rush back to my room.
I quickly throw on a pair of jeans, strip off my t-shirt and put on a bra. I’m thumbing through my wardrobe looking for a decent shirt to wear when the realisation hits me. I’m meeting Nick’s family! I’m suddenly very nervous. What if they don’t like me? What does this mean for us? It seems like an awfully big step for us, especially when I don’t know what ‘us’ is. Don’t get too excited, he’s leaving soon.
I find my pale blue , short sleeve, button-up shirt and put it on. I race past Nick who is standing in the kitchen and fumble around my bathroom brushing my hair and my teeth as quickly as possible, knowing that Nick is already late. I hear a groan come from the bathroom doorway and turn to find him leaning against the door frame with his arms crossed.
“What?” I mumble with my mouth full of toothpaste.
“I’m having second thoughts…” I turn to him with a glare, unable to speak. He’s changed his mind? “I’m not sure I can leave this apartment right now.” He glances down and I do the same to see the prominent bulge in his pants. I feel my eyes go wide and look up at him in surprise. “Em, you see what you do to me? You look so hot when you’re flustered. I think maybe we should just stay here.”
I’m standing here with toothpaste dripping from my mouth and he’s turned on? I spit and rinse before I choke with the laughter I’m trying to contain.
“No way buddy, you are not backing out now.” I point my finger at him. “Just think about something else,” I advise, although I am rather pleased that I turned him on without even trying. I quickly spray on some perfume and then walk towards him. He unfolds his arms and braces against the door frame not letting me pass. “I’m ready to go.”
“So am I ,” he says, looking at me seductively. Just those few words from Nick’s mouth send desire flooding through me. I shiver. Then I slowly move closer to him, putting my arms around his neck. I pull myself flush against his hard body and, standing on my tippy-toes, I kiss his neck softly before moving my mouth to his ear. I suck on his ear lobe, letting out a small breath which makes him shiver, but he keeps his arms pressed to the door frame.
“ Laters baby,” I whisper and then take two quick steps back from him, breaking all contact. I can see the lust in his eyes as a sexy smirk slowly takes shape on his face. I love this new found power!
“ Laters? ” he asks, cocking his eyebrows in amusement.
“Yes. Laters baby, it’s a reference to Fifty Shades of Grey,” I explain.
“ Riiiiiggghht,” he looks at me in amusement. “I always knew you were trouble. You are so gonna pay for teasing me like that!” he taunts as he takes hold of my hand and pulls me from the apartment.
“Really? Is that a threat or a promise?”
Nick
I want to take care of Em but when I tried to comfort her earlier she ended up comforting me, by making a joke about Vegemite, of all things. She is not as fragile as I thought and constantly surprises me, in the bedroom and out. And referencing that smutty book series I’ve heard so much about? Definitely not as innocent as I first had her pegged.
I don’t know how she does it, but being around her makes me feel so conflicted and yet at peace at the same time, if that makes sense. One minute I’m angry, then I’m laughing and the next I’m totally shocking myself by asking her to come to lunch with my family. She bewilders me and makes me crazy, it’s like riding one big roller coaster with her. When she asks if I’m sure that I want her to come
“No, I mean are you sure you want me to come?”
