Amelia’s POV
I opened my eyes slowly turning away from the blinding light that was peeking through the window. Memories of last night came rushing back and a smile made its way on my face.
Heat rushing to my core as I remembered the feeling. I frowned looking around the room for Xavier but I came up unsuccessful. I got up yawning running my hand through the newly acquired bird nest on my head.
I opened the door and the smell of food hits me as I make my towards the kitchen to see Xavier placing a pancake on a plate with many others.
“Good morning baby girl.” He greeted and my heart fluttered as I smiled watching him put the pan back on the stove.
“Good morning.”
“You look absolutely beautiful.” He commented amused and my eyes went wide as I imagined what I probably look like, I turned to leave but he pulls me towards him, my back pressed against his chest as he chuckled kissing my cheek.
“You’re breathtaking.” He whispered in my ear a tingle running down my spine at his words.
“Shut up, I know my hair is sticking up “Who’s Rick?” He asked amused.
“From Rick and Morty.” I replied and he laughed kissing my neck softly.
“You know Rick and Morty?” I asked slightly shocked as I turned in his arms
“Of course, you’re the only one who doesn’t see me as a normal person.” He said shrugging and I immediately knew he was lying he could at least try to make eye contact. A thought comes to my mind and I smile.
“Emerald.”
“Emerald what?” He asked amused as if challenging me.
“Emerald told you.” I told him smiling and he chuckled pecking my lips.
“Come, you need to eat.” He said leading me to a stool I sat down grabbing a fork laughing as the thought that flashed in my mind.
“What?” He asked sitting beside me.
“Nothing, I just most be really good at sucking dick.”
“What-why, Amelia.” He said amused and I smiled.
“You’re reasoning please, Ms. Davidson.”
“Xavier you’re up at seven something cooking me breakfast with Taylor Swift playing in the background.” I finished and he chuckled.
“It was playing when I got here.” He lied and I laughed.
“Your lying.”
“Fine but she’s the only artist you have that I know.” He replied amused.
“What artist do you to listen to then?”
“Pink Sweat$.”
“Who?” I asked and he smiled.
“Am I about to introduce you to your new favorite artist.”
“Your confidence amuses me Xavier Persons.” I said and he got up walking over to the stereo his muscles flexing, his pants hanging loosely on his waist without the support of his belt. I heard the sweet sound of music playing through the speakers and he turned smiling walking over to me, kissing my cheek.
“You’re perfect.” He whispered his hands moving around my waist and I smiled enjoying his warmth as a man began singing. I picked up a piece of bacon biting into it as his hand moved to my belly, his thumb moving in a circular motion comforting me. I closed my eyes no longer in the mood to eat.
“Do you believe in love at first sight?” Xavier whispered his minty breath against my cheek as he spoke.
“In some ways, do you?”
“I never did before, but I’m being slowly persuaded.” He replied and I smiled.
“Eat… we’re going somewhere.” He said pulling away and I whimpered missing his body against mine.
“Where are we going?”
“Art gallery.” He responded grabbing his jacket and I frowned.
“Where are you going?”
“Home.”
“You don’t have to leave now.” I said turning on my stool to face him. He smiled walking towards me moving in-between my legs his hand moving to my chin making sure my eyes held his.
“As good as that sounds I also have some business I need to attend to before coming for you, be ready by six, it’s a black and white event.” He told me pecking my lips and I reached up pulling him back to me, not satisfied with his idea of a kiss but he grabbed my hands placing them behind me.
“If you do that I’ll never leave, Amelia.” He added amused kissing my forehead.
“Are you trying to convince me?” I asked equally amused.
“Eat.” He whispered pulling away, I watched as he left my apartment popping the bubble of serenity that I was in.
“There is nothing for me to wear.” I groaned as Lesley emerged from my closet another dress in her hands. This one was too revealing with lace in places lace shouldn’t be but I could tell she liked it.
“You want it.” I said smiling and she shrugged.
“No Amelia it wants me.” She replied amused moving over to me putting the dress on the bed. I closed my eyes as she retreated back into the closet. I was in my robe freshly showered, my hair straight with no idea of what to wear and it was almost five. I opened my eyes hearing her footsteps approaching.
“The slit is too high.” I said eyeing the dress.
“No it’s not.” She said turning it to her.
“Try it on.” She ordered and I climbed off the bed pulling my rob putting it on the chair in the corner. I placed my hair in a quick bun turning back to Lesley who’s eyes were piercing into me.
“You’re wearing ‘I am going have sex panties’.” She said amused and I laughed slightly taking the dress from her.
“No I’m not.” I replied as she moved sitting on the bed facing me.
“Amelia I know sex panties, those are sex panties.”
“Of course you would now.” I replied laughing as I adjusted the dress on my body she smiled her eyes running over me.
“I like it.” She commented and I turned looking at myself in the mirror.
“Of course you would like this.” I mumbled looking at my exposed leg and she laughed moving behind me her hands going around my waist.
“What’s that suppose to mean?” She asked and I looked at her our eyes locking in the mirror.
“You picked it.”
“I bet Xavier is going to love this.”
“I’m not wearing this Les.”
“What’s the worst that can happen, you either get a raise or a baby.” She joked and I rolled my eyes playfully looking at myself in the mirror. I mean it wasn’t that bad, I just had to take small and mindful steps. I looked back up to Lesley to see her eyes trained on me I smiled turning to face her.
“What are you thinking about?” I asked already having an idea and she sent me a shy smile sitting back on the bed.
