Chapter 70
Joseph's POV
"Psst, psst, helloooo, Joss, wake up! Joss!"I hear Sophie's voice loud in my ear. What the heck? Sophie? Sophie is supposed to be at Robin's.I open my eyes and I see Sophie in flesh and bones in front of me.
"Soph! What are you doing here? What time is it?" I croak with a sleepy voice. How long have I been sleeping?
"Last time I checked, I live here too. The lease says so. Not my fault you never read it." Sophie mocks me with her eyebrow raised. "And it's 10....."she looks at her watch... "10:34. What are you doing here? You don't fall asleep on the couch. Oh god...is something wrong with your room? Do we have a cockroach problem? I swear to God Joss!" She hits me shoulder lightly.
"What?Cockroach?Are you serious?I might be bored of cleaning, but my relationship with it it's not non existent." I complain still sleepy. What an awful way to wake up. "I didn't sleep in my room, because Alice is sleeping there." That makes Sophie tilt her head.
"Alice? Alice Reynolds, Alice? Why? She has a dorm...with a bed. Why is she here?" She asks next. Then her eyes widen. "You did not sleep with Alice Joseph Nelson! Oh nooo..oh God." She panics.
"Are you fucking serious? Me and Alice? No!" I exclaim, sitting up. "Also if I had slept with her, why would I be sleeping here?" I ask her, like I am addressing to a stupid person.
"Because you not are the morning guy. You sleep with them and then they go home. Maybe you wanted to sent Alice home, but she fell asleep or something and you ended up here. It wouldn't surprise me if that happened! Thank God you didn't do something like that, I just started to like her; can you imagine how awkward it would be if she was one the girls?" She remarks and sits next to me relaxed. What the fuck is she talking about? Alice one of the girls?
"Nothing happened between me and Alice yesterday! She just came here to eat and because it was too late we thought it was a better idea for her to sleep here." I tell her, yawning. Of course I am not going to disclose anything about yesterday. I hope Alice feels better today. She was a total wreck last night.
"Oh...that's weird but ok...um..I texted Vanessa yesterday, but she didn't mention it...Does she know?" She frowns. "Also, was your room clean? Oh my god, were your sheets clean?...Ew.." She makes a face. Seriously Sophie? It's too early for this fuss.
"I will overlook your cleaning obsession and yes I texted Vanessa yesterday to let her know. So did you bring anything to eat or coffee like a good roomie?" I give her a wide smile.
"Of course I did, I am thoughtful like that, I got you coffee and the donuts you like! I also bought tomato sauce, I'll try to make pasta again. Are you ready for it?" She wiggles her eyebrows.
"I think no one is ready for this. How many people do you have to poison to achieve a simple plate of pasta with tomato sauce?" I joke with a mischievous smile, taking the coffee from her. "Too bad you didn't know about Alice,you could have brought her coffee as well. Let's leave her more donuts!" I take a sip from my coffee. It's so hot and its smell is great and addictive.
"Hey, I am getting there, cooking is not my forte." she shrugs and sips some of her coffee too. "Well, If I had known about Alice I would have, maybe next time." She comments and takes one of the donuts out of the box. " You want to leave donuts for her? When have you ever left donuts for me? You eat them all, you are obsessed with them, I barely get to eat one." She remarks looking at me suspiciously. She's right about that. When it comes to things that I like, like donuts I hate sharing. Maybe it's childish, but I don't care. But now this is a special occasion. Alice had a really rough night. What a better way to start her day with a bunch of donuts? With chocolate... She will be thrilled.
"As you have put it,not so gently, we should take care of our guests and make them feel comfortable and welcome, otherwise we are no different from gorillas." I use her own words, to avoid any further questions.
"Exactly. Our moms would be proud. So like what do we do now? Usually the girls are already gone when I am back. Do we wake her up, eat breakfast all together? Will it wake her up if I take a shower?" She starts again.
"I think we should let her sleep. She was really tired." I answer to her, remembering Alice's state the previous night. I've never seen her like that. She has two completely opposite sides, but those make them who she is. I have to say I could never imagine her devastated like that, because she always displays her confidence and ferocity. She thinks if she shows that part of her, everyone will think she is weak, when the truth is she's strong and she can bear things that other people can't. She has to realise that.
"Um...should I have towels and clothes for her ready if she wants to take a shower? Mmmmm...maybe we should clean at least the living room Joss." She gets up in a quick move.
"Hey calm down! Alice is really easy going! Stop panicking!" I try to calm her down, because she's ready to start a cleaning invasion. "So tell me about your first Valentine's day with Robin. How was it?" I change the conversation, in order to avoid any questions about Alice. Her face gets flustered in seconds.
"Um...it was interesting..you know...I had a good time." She mumbles shyly and avoids eye contact while sitting back down. "All good."
"All the times were good?" I smirk.
"Ha ha ha ha ...yes." She mocks me and turns on the TV. "I discovered I really like red as a colour." She says vaguely. "What did you do?" She tries to change the subject.
I start telling her about my hang out with some friends at the dorms' near to Alice's and that I run into her at the parking lot. Obviously I didn't tell her how I run into her or what me and Alice did after that. I improvised by telling her that Alice mocked my cooking skills and I was very eager to prove her wrong right away. Sophie seems to buy that. To be honest she looks very cheerful and talkative. I guess Robin did way better than good. Since January,when Sophie and Robin started to have sex, Sophie is calmer, happier and more easy going. Thank you Robin. You made our living together way better.
Alice's POV
I am spinning around under the warm blanket, trying to loll. It feels so cozy here, that I am in no mood to open my eyes. The mattress is so soft and comfortable and the scent from the sheets and the pillow is intoxicating. It's his captivating scent. I hug the pillow tight letting the scent surround me, because it makes me feel like he's next to me on bed. Wait a minute... Bed? The last thing I remember is that I was in the living room, watching TV. I open my eyes at once. This is not the living room. I sit up and I take a look around. I am sitting at a big size bed.This is Joseph's room. He must have carried me here, when I fell asleep. When he insisted on sleeping in his room, he really meant it. My heart starts pounding really fast despite my half waken state.
I rub my eyes to take a better look at the place. Joseph has a really nice sense of decoration. His room's walls are painted in pale gray and white and they are decorated with many vinyls and their cases,which are from different rock bands, since Joseph is a hardcore rock lover. That's so vintage of him.Then, I observe a dartboard with darts on it and two posters with an Aston Martin car and a Maldives beach. He is such a sucker for luxury stuff, when on the same time he loves adventure. I wonder how he combines these two things.
I stand up and in front of me there is his desk with a large screen, two big speakers on it and the PC tower under it.The whole desk area looks so clean and in order, with its keyboard, mouse,headphones,controllers and all the cables tidied in one place. His laptop bag is put on his chair with some T-shirts. Next to the desk there is a bookcase, which I approach at once. I am always attracted to other people's bookcases to see what little treasures they have. Joseph's bookcase proves as he told me what a comic lover he is. He has many comics with superheroes and some disney,several computer science books and some crime literature books. The rest bookcase is filled with video games. Him and Ren would spend hours talking about games, since both of them share the same passion.
I really like his room. It's so Joseph. His aura has filled the place and you feel calmer. He has this magical ability! When I am around him I feel like all the problems are so easy to solve.
I yawn and I wonder how long I've been sleeping. There is a bedside table with the tablet,I gave to him, on it and a digital clock. Wow! I've slept for many hours like a rock! The truth is I had a long time to sleep that peaceful and without dreams this specific night. Joseph achieved that and an unwitting smile crosses my face. I will go out to make him breakfast if he hasn't woken up yet as an action for gratitude, but when I approach the door I hear talking from the outside. Joseph is awake and talking with... Sophie. Apparently Sophie has returned from Robin! How is she going to react when she sees me? Did Joseph tell her that I am here and if he did how did he explain it? Anyway I will never find out if I don't go out.
"Good morning!" I croak to Joseph and Sophie, going towards them.
"Good morning sunshine!" Joseph says sarcastically with a bright smile. He looks relieved, the moment he sees my calm face.
"Good morning Alice, how are you, I hope you slept good." Sophie chimes in with a smile.
"I slept really well and really heavy! I feel like a new person!" A wide smile crosses my face, which directs more to Joseph than Sophie. Joseph smiles back, understanding to what I am referring to.
"Perfect! We have donuts for you. I can give you towels if you want to take a shower, or something." Sophie asks me.She is so thoughtful.
"Thank you!" I stretch my arm to grab one. "Ohhh it's chocolate!" I lick my lips from excitement. "Sophie I hope you don't mind that I wore your pjs. I will wash them, before I give them back to you." I say, taking a bite from my donut. From what I heard, Sophie is really weird with these stuff, so I should better act considerate, because I am sure the moment I will take the pjs out she will decontaminate them.
"Ohh...that's ok, no worries." Sophie starts but then turns to Joseph. "My room is locked when I leave the house, how did you get them?" She eyes him.
"It was a piece of cake for Alice to unlock the door. You should use locks of better quality." He says casually with a smirk, teasing her and she looks at me paralyzed.
"Um....that's violation of property. There is a reason I lock my room, I don't trust you with the girls that pay visits....and I really like my sheets clean.." She makes a disgusted face and I laugh with her expression. I think Joseph is capable of ending up in another room, because of that. In the same time a sting of pain penetrates my stomach, thinking Joseph with other girls. When I am with Joseph like I was yesterday, I forget his womanizer lifestyle.
"Name one time that I trespassed!" Joseph exclaims annoyed.
"I don't have to be burnt to be cautious of fire. With you life keeps hitting me. I get in the shower and voila, bras that are not mine! I have seen enough, my room is sacred." She fights back.
"Seriously Joseph where do you find them?" I blurt, feeling annoyed. I know I shouldn't, but I do.
"In desperate places full of daddy issues. How do they leave without underwear? Pfffff."
"Exactly! It's not the best thing to wake up and walk into a pile of forgotten bras." I support Sophie, more intensely than I should do. Joseph's eyes move between me and Sophie, terrified of the potential of a united yelling.
"Thank you Alice, glad you get it! See Joss, that's not polite, you don't walk around finding Robi...yeah. Thanks Alice." Sophie stops her speech with red cheeks.
"I think you start forgetting things. I was sure all this studying would have side effects. Remember last Sunday? I run into a lacy red bra in the hall. Others welcome someone with a red carpet,whereas you welcomed me with a red bra!" Joseph mocks Sophie, feeling really satisfied with himself. Sophie chokes on her saliva on the other hand.
"Um.........I should go shower." She mumbles something to herself and gets up. "And for your information, it only happened once and you were supposed to not return home for the night." She narrows her eyes and Joseph gulps. This irritating sting comes again. I wonder why I am feeling so surprised. Of course Joseph would spend a Sunday night somewhere else. Robin sent us a picture of his groupies drooling for him, as he was playing the pool. (Not that I was any different, since I had a huge urge to save his photo of him playing the pool.)
I try to hold a heavy huff. What did I expect? There's nothing between me and Joseph, that can justify this emotion of betrayal. Snap out of it Alice. You're being irrational! I try really hard to keep a neutral expression and wait impatiently for Joseph's answer.
"I couldn't get rid of her annoying friend! I've got her number of course, but I don't think I will call...I am not really interested in her...We will see..." Joseph remarks indifferently. I totally love that annoying friend. Also this thing about him not being interested made my face lit.Oh stop acting like that you moron!
"Oh yeah Robin told me...anyway I think I should go shower now, leave you two to catch up I guess. Alice if you are staying we can call Ro and Vanessa as well for dinner, I guess." She suggests.
"That's a great idea! I haven't seen Ro in a while!" I exclaim happily. Hanging out with my friends will be a great way to be on track again.
"Let's invite Nathan as well! I will need another guy to endure all of you together." Joseph chimes in.
"Yes sure I haven't see Nathaniel either...Um Alice if you need the bathroom I suggest you go in now, cause I am having a bubble bath.my muscles are kinda sore." She remarks absentmindedly as I shake my head no.
"Wild acrobatics are not addressed to all people, especially inexperienced ones!" Joseph teases her.
"Not from.....you know what, I am not indulging you. See you both in about an hour." she says and after glaring at Joseph, she leaves the living room.
"How are you?" Joseph asks me in low voice, when the bathroom's door closes.His eyes soften immediately and his whole previous goofy attitude is being replaced by a tender,caring one.
"Good! I mean really good! Sleeping that much helped a lot... you... helped a lot." I flash a smile to him.
"I am glad! To tell you the truth the moment you started throwing your arrows at me, I knew you were ok!" he smirks and I laugh lightly.
"So do you prefer me to lash out at you, so you know that I am ok?" I grab another donut from the box.
"Much more than seeing you crying." he mutters and all the irritating feelings I had before are now vanished. How can he do this to me? I was really riled up at him before, just because I was stupidly jealous and now I am melting again. Why am I falling right into a trap that I can see so clearly. Why am I such an idiot lovestruck girl?
"So what did Sophie tell you about my presence here? I guess I was the last person she expected." I sit more comfortable on the couch, taking another bite from my donut.
"She thought we slept together!"he remarks.
"She thought what?" I exclaim high pitching. "I think the too much love messed with her brain." I point out. "I mean you and me? How crazy!" I make a grimace. I hope I didn't overreact about it.
"I know, right? Totally crazy! Imagine her if she walked in on us. She would have freaked out and wouldn't believe in her eyes!" Joseph chuckles slightly.
"Thankfully this will never happen and she won't have to worry about having a stroke, because of us."I chuckle slightly too. "Anyway do you have any coffee?" I ask, since the whole room smells like it and it's tickling my nose.
"Yeah of course! I'll make some for you! Unfortunately Sophie didn't know you were going to be here..." Joseph says, standing up.
"Don't worry! She brought donuts!" I smile. "And I will make my own coffee! Just tell me where it is!" I stand up as well.
"Sit down!" he commands me! "You're my guest, so you will be treated like one! Just let loose for one day and let someone take care of you!" he says softly and I obey. I guess he's right. It's really strange how comfortable I feel with him, when I only know him for 5 months.
After a while, Joseph returns with a delicious coffee. I am not sure if it's good because it really is or because he made it. Later Sophie gets out of the shower and I take her place. She even gave me a change of clothes. Well, it is not exactly my taste, but I appreciate it. After quite some time, Robin and Vanessa join us as well for lunch. Unfortunately Nathan had practice and couldn't come, but despite that I really enjoyed myself. We talked, played games and laughed a lot. At the end of the day I had a wide grin on my face, which didn't use to appear on these specific days.
Robin's POV
"How did it happen?" It is a question I have been asked 10 times give or take, till this day. A 6 year old Jake asked me where mommy and daddy were, after Alex had picked me up from school the day before. I told him they were in heaven and then proceed to tell him how.
River asked on mother's day, 7 months into our friendship. Heaven came up again since I was still young. This time my story telling was a little bit more accurate, since I could understand things better.
Jen and Viv asked next while we were sitting on the bleachers, watching the cheerleaders' practice. This time I did not say the word 'heaven', and for the first time someone else muttered the word 'I understand, my dad is dead too.' This was a bonding moment for me and Jen, the only difference was that she remembers him, while I don't.
Nat was next in line, after she saw a picture of them, sometime during Christmas. She kissed me and hugged me tightly, saying she understands, but she doesn't. Her dad leaving her mom is not the same as being an orphan.
Callie patted my shoulder when she heard the story. We didn't say much about it. Her only question was if I had something of them to remember them by. I showed her my mom's ring and my dad's guitar collection.
Then Sam followed who's comment was something like "that's deep shit bitch. Thank God for Alex".
Nicky was the last one to ask about the details. Her dad had left her mother, her and her brother when they were a little over 5 and 3 years old respectively. Unlike Nat she never claimed to 'get it'.
It's really not a surprise to have people want to know about it. But now Sophie, being the one to ask me is somehow different than the others.
She is hugging me, resting her head on my chest, while her fingers trail on my forearm. It's soothing really. Her body is pressed against mine as we are both warm enough under my covers. We had a movie night in my room that lead to us being like this naked, so I do find this setting far more private than the others. Here we are as intimate as we could get, immersed in silence and security and so much love.
"My mom went to pick up dad from work because his car had a problem. They were driving back home after work, and it was raining. The police report said that a car from the opposite line lost control and hit their car." I look at the ceiling as if it could give me strength to say the rest. "My mom......she died instantly." I take a deep breath as the first tear runs down my cheek. "Dad was transferred to the hospital...his body collapsed during the surgery. 17:56 pm to be exact." She leaves her spot on my chest and looks at me. Her hand cups my cheek and wipes out the tears slowly.
"And you were home right, you told me so..." she asks next.
"I was with the babysitter, yes. They called the house, the social services came and-"
"The social services?" she frowns.
"Yeah....Alex was in Boston. He had a business with a friend there. He had been living there since he was 20 years old. My mom's parents were dead before she got married to my dad and my dad's mom died a year before I was born. They wanted to name me Addison after her, but mom persuaded dad that Robin was cooler for a girl. My dad's father died a few months before my first birthday so Alex was the only one they could call. He flew 5 days later and picked me up from the foster home I was placed temporarily."
"You were in a foster home. Wow." People always get this reaction.
"Yeah...can't say I remember anything. Alex said they were a nice couple. Anyway....um...long story short, Alex left everything behind to come here and be my guardian. You know a 24 year old would run from the responsibilities, but he stayed. He is my hero." I say firmly. I have written tons of essays about him during school years.
"What he did was truly great. He took such a good care of you, and raised you to be a very compassionate, gentle, well-mannered person." She trails her fingers on my jaw.
"I know, he made me who I am. I owe him my life. If it weren't for him, I would be in the system, or maybe in a foster home, or worse....you don't know the things I have heard, Sophie. We have a few foster kids at the center...they are not happy kids...they have so much darkness in their eyes...it's....it's..." I have seen and heard so many things...there is so much pain and evil in this world, and that breaks me.
'Shh.... It's ok, you are not them." She caresses my cheeks and puts a strand away from my face. I sniffle and nod taking a few breaths to calm down.
"At least insurance paid us a huge amount of money for the accident." I joke trying to lighten up them mood. "And I also inherited money from my grandparents plus my mom's parental house in Arizona." Sophie chuckles.
"Do you miss them?" I can tell she regretted the question the moment it left her lips.
"I miss certain things. How can you miss something you never knew? I don't know. I would like to have experienced things, I guess, like holidays, birthdays, but how much different could they be than how they are now? I don't think I can answer that." I truly don't know how to answer. Every time the what if invades my head it messes with my mood, so I don't think about it.
She rests her head on my chest again and reassumes her trailing on my arm.
"When Alex brought me home I was very agitated. I would scream during the night, refuse to eat, and I would have rashes all over my body. The doctors told Alex I had an abandonment trauma of some sort...but I turned out good, I guess. You all have problems Sophie. You look at a person and you can't really phantom what shaped them, what made them who they are. It's all about Psychology."
We spent another minute in silence when Sophie takes a deep breath and clings to me tighter.
"Amanda Gerald's 8th year old party was the last party I went to. She had a clown there and I got scared the moment I saw him and cried. A kid made fun of me that day. I stopped going to parties after that, because I was afraid something like that would happen again. Eventually kids stopped inviting me....all except Vanessa, but I never went." She confesses.
That makes me sad. She must have been pretty isolated as a kid. Kids should be happy and cheerful, amongst friends.
"Clowns can be really scary." I conclude as well. I never thought of them as creepily scary, but they were when I was a kid.
"When I was thirteen my favorite grandpa, my dad's father, died of lung cancer. It was the first funeral I went to. Dad's mom had passed away when I was 9 so they didn't allow me to go, but at the age of 13 I had to attend. I still remember everything I wore that day, what my parents wore too. After that I developed a fear of death for about a year and a half. I had vivid nightmares about dying or my parents dying, and I would get really anxious when doing any activity, so I preferred staying home and reading books instead of playing outside. Joss was 15 at that time so we had already stopped playing silly games and I had no one else to hang out with." I can tell she is crying so I caress her back to confront her."I know I come off as snob and an ice queen, but if I could go back time I would have tried to be more open with others. I would go to birthday parties and I would have more than one friend instead of an imaginary one." That got my attention.
"You had an imaginary friend?" How much of a dork can she be?
"Yes. Layla. She was from another planet and we would talk about the stars and the Sun." She chuckles and sniffles.
"Was she pretty?" I am intrigued. This is a Super girl like story.
"She was blonde and she would wear nice pink dresses. She was always well mannered when we would have a tea party and very considerate during studying time. Her mom and dad were kings on her planet and send her here to spy on us so that they can rule us here on earth later on, but Layla promised me that we would rule together." She says casually.
"Oh my god, this is so gay! Seriously think about it! You and an alien royalty met and started hanging out, and had your tea time and she promised you that you would rule by her side. If that's not gay I don't know what is!" this so hilarious!
"Stop it! It was not gay. And I could have been her right hand!"
"Yeah sure. Wow." I start laughing out loud, not able to control it. "And it is until now you realized you like girls? God this is hilarious!"
"Hey, how did you know?" she looks up again pouting.
"I had an innocent crush on Ms. Truman when I was 10. I would give her flowers every Friday for about a year. Jake had also a crush on her and mimic my approach, but he stopped after six months in. But what really made me realize I was the lord of lesbians was the famous pool incident." I nod my head recalling the scene in my head. "I was with River at the public school sunbathing on the floor since the chairs were taken. We were 13 ok, and River would talk on and on about her crush on Mike, which she dated a few years later, while I was drinking my ice tea, happy and carefree, when accidentally one of the older girls, Penny Simpson, a sophomore, tripped and fell all over me. I still remember how I felt at the contact. It was like my body was on fire! Seriously, her boobs were inches away from my neck and I could see a lot of things, which I did. She got up, apologized and left leaving me behind, swallowing hard and being on fire. I got really uncomfortable cause my body was totally catching up with my brain so I packed my things real quick and got home. I knew that not all people liked the opposite sex so I spent the day thinking about it and the more I did, the more it made sense. I never liked a boy, I never had a crush on any, and I would stare at pretty girls all the time. I thought it was because they were really pretty and everyone looks at them, but somehow it was not the same I guess. I would never stare at River for example but I would look at Emily who sat a few rows ahead. Emily was really pretty, I gave her chewing gum once and she smiled at me, which made me smile for a day."
"Dork. It was just a smile." Sophie's frown is more that obvious.
"I know! So examining all this things I came to the conclusion that I liked girls. I was nervous to tell Alex but it went more than perfect. He was very supportive, and tried to help my in any way, so one day he came home and told me that there's this place where teens like me gather and talk, and it would a good idea for me to join since I didn't know anyone like me at school."
"Alex is indeed perfect." She peppers my jaw with small kisses.
"Yeah, we go to the Pride together every year. It's nice to be able to do those things with the people you love. I am truly thankful. Sam's family is hella supportive and Nicky's too. I met her mom the other day, such a nice person and her brother is also sweet. Sam's little monsters of siblings are something else too." Ms. Cooper is a very strong woman, raising two kids alone, and an amazing cook.
"Yeah? Sam never talks about her family. At least not with me, but I saw the photo you have on your wall, they are a big family!"
She grimaces and I smile at her. "Yeah, let me show you my favorite Harris monster. Can you get the photo please?" she smiles and sits up, and involuntarily I lick my lips at the sight of her naked torso. I inspect her search for the photo among the others but then I see her stop and look at something intensely.
"What is it?" I also sit up and lean on my bed frame looking at her confused.
"You took Natalie's photo off your wall." She looks at me in the eyes and I relax. I thought I had done something wrong. I lean forward and put my hands around her waist.
"Baby, Natalie's photo has stopped being there since our first date." That makes her kiss me warmly and cup my cheek.
"Our first date huh?" she kisses me again and then kiss becomes more heated by the second. She is the one that breaks it though, and reaches for the photos again. She takes the Harris family photo and straddles me, so that we can look at the picture together and be as close as possible.
A few of Stella's adventures were told along with Sam's family background. I could tell by her face that Stella was her favorite too and she even said that she and Ben would be amazing friends if they ever had the chance to meet, given both their love for SpongeBob and power rangers.
I would kill to see Sam's face during that hung out to be honest.
***************************************************************************************
Sophie's POV
Halsey has been blasting through the speakers of Robin's computer but I don't think I actually heard any of her songs. All I hear right now is my own heartbeat, off the charts, and Robin's moans mixed with mine as her hand wanders on my thigh, goosebumps visible on my body.
As her mouth trails on my neck I can't help but moan loudly, missing a breath or two. All my senses are heightened at this point and my mind has turned to mush. God, she is driving me crazy when she does that, she knows my neck and earlobes are my weak spots, but she enjoys getting me this way. I try to switch our position and take the upper hand, topping her, but she won't let me and bites my pulse in retaliation. She loves being dominant.
"Babe you can't leave a hickey ok? People are gonna see it...mmmm, babe....ahh". I barely form the sentence getting out of breath again. I can feel her smiling but I don't care, I want her everywhere on me right now and I let her know by taking her hand, that currently lays on my stomach, and drag it on the zipper of my jeans. She gets the point and starts undoing it, when I hear my phone vibrating on her nightstand.
"No, no don't answer it babe, they can call later. I want you so bad right now, please...babe, I am so wet for you." She whispers on my ear biting my other weak spot, grinding frantically on my thing,and I think I might listen to her, but the phone keeps vibrating. I push her off me and reach for the phone- who keeps calling damn it?! Once I read the name my blood turns cold.
"Shit, it's my mother! Ro stay quiet and don't you dare play any games while I am on the phone with her!" I say and she nods terrified as well. I take a breath to calm down while Ro gets up and retreats to her bathroom.
"Hi mom, how are you?" I try to sound normal and not like I was about to have sex with my girlfriend.
" Hi honey, I hope I am not interrupting anything at this hour" -oh mother if only you knew!
"No mom I was in the bathroom, don't worry. Is there anything you wanted?"
"Yes honey, your dad and I have to go visit your grandmother this weekend, she wants to sell a property and she needs your father. Our flight leaves at 18:00 on Friday. Would you be a dear and watch after Ben sweetie? We suggested a sitter but he wanted you." Ohhh Benjie missed me! This little devil.
"Sure mom, I can be there Friday afternoon after my 8:00 class? I will be there at 3-ish."
"That would be great hon! Ben will be thrilled to hear this!" We keep a light conversation with mother while I pace the room. Once in front of the bathroom an idea strikes me.
"Umm mom would it be OK if I bring a friend along? We have a paper due Tuesday."
"Of course honey! We will see you both on Friday." she states happily.
"Great, see you on Friday mom!" I end the call the moment Ro comes out of the bathroom in nothing but a towel, freshly showered.
"You took a shower?" I point at her towel giggling.
"Well your mother cock blocked us and you told me to behave, so yes I took a shower." She mocks me as she goes to her wardrobe.
"If I tell you something, promise you won't freak out?" I ask carefully.
"What's up babe?" She stops mid-way, worried.
"My parents will be off for this weekend and they want me to babysit Ben. I will have to go on Friday after class because their flight leaves at 18:00." I start.
"OK...why would I panic about that?" she looks at me confused.
"I-told-her-I-would-bring-a-friend-too". I say as quickly as possible, embarrassed.
"Ummmm, what? "Her eyebrow is raised.
"I told her I would bring a friend... You.. I want you to come with me to my house." I say clearly this time. Her jaw fell...
I didn't think this through, she is gonna freak. That's what happens here right? The clingy -in the closet- girlfriend asks her partner to come to her parents' house as a friend and the partner freaks out. Ro is gonna freak out and think this is too much, and she is gonna see how weird that is and she is going to break up with me and go back with Natalie or someone else...oh lord I messed it up, I...
"Yeah sure, I am free this weekend babe." Robin says reaching her wardrobe and starting going through her clothes to find something to wear.
"Really? You want to come?" I ask surprised.
"Well yes babe, you want me there and I will be there for you." She may not be facing my but I know she is being honest.
"This doesn't freak you out? Meeting my parents, even if it's for like half an hour, give or take?." She stops her searching and walking away, towards me. She approaches me, hugging me and putting a brown lock behind my ear.
"No this doesn't freak me out, OK? Relax. Besides, you have already met my uncle so if you are thinking that this is too much, please remember that, OK?" She gives me a peck and I hug her back, getting my own clothes wet.
"Sorry, I panicked for a second...my mind went places..." I lean my head on her neck, smelling her shampoo.
"I know, that's why I am reassuring you. We can go. I want to meet you parents, but mostly your brother". She remarks.
"I am sorry you will be there as my friend and not my girlfriend." I sigh squeezing her.
"That's fine love, maybe next time that I will see them". She smiles and it hurts me that I am not ready for that yet. Her uncle knowing about us and our friends as well is already pressuring me, but my parents and other people knowing..... I am not ready yet. But Robin is so good and patient ...I.. I love her..
We stay there in the middle of the room hugging each other, Ro running her hand through my back. It's completely innocent but it makes me shudder and she might have had a shower to cool off, but I didn't, and now...now i want to continue. I reach for her towel and slowly I take it off. She looks at me smirking.
"You are gonna make me dirty again, aren't you?" She kisses me lightly.
"You bet babe." I deepen our kiss and bite her lip, making her moan.
