I looked over the arm rest and saw him coming towards me, so I quickly tried to sit up. But I was too late, Dean grinned as he practically dive-bombed on to the couch, landing right on my stomach. I released a breath as he landed on me.
Dean, you asshole ! I yelled, trying to push him off me, and failing.
He just laughed hysterically and leaned back, throwing his arms over the back of the couch. So, you got any plans with the sis and Dick ?
I sighed and dropped my arms, too tired to try and push him off me. I don’t know, probably just dinner and a movie or something.
And will you be taking Lily with you ? He whispered, trying to sound casual about it.
As a matter of fact, I am, I said, smiling when I noticed the look of complete and utter shock on his face.
She’s meeting your family ? That’s a huge deal, dude ! He said, wide-eyed.
Jeez ! Would you get off me ? I shouted, throwing my hands up in the air.
Oh, right ! Sorry, he shrugged, moving off me and sliding over to the chair next to the couch. So, you’re really serious about this one, huh ?
I sat up, rubbing my chest. Looking over at him, I smiled. Lily is… I trailed off, unable to explain the way I really felt about her. I had never felt anything like it before.
Oh God ! Dean muttered, shaking his head at me. You sound like a love sick puppy.
Shut up dude, I yelled, grabbing hold of the nearest cushion and throwing it straight at his face.
I grinned when it hit it’s mark, causing Dean’s yell to be muffled by the cushion. So, Lily’s coming over for dinner at seven, I said, getting up from the couch before Dean could throw anything back.
What are you two ? Glued at the hip ? I heard behind me as I wondered to my bedroom.
Look, I’m going to bed, I said, choosing to ignore his previous statement. Will you wake me up at 6 ? I’m making the pizza that I always do.
Really ? Dean grinned, poking his head around the corner. You’re not gonna force me to vacate the apartment are you ? I’ll just eat mine in my room.
Whatever ! I nodded, walking in to my bedroom and shutting the door behind me.
I needed a quick power nap before I started making the pizza, seeing as I was pretty much wiped out. After quickly changing in to a pair of jeans and a hoodie, I collapsed on to my bed, my mind drifting to Lily. As I closed my eyes, I pictured the way her golden hair fell over her shoulders and how her costume had clung to every curve of her perfect body. It had taken all of my willpower not to have had my way with her in the ocean earlier. But I knew she wanted to take it slow, and there was no way I was going to mess that up, even though it was damn near killing me. Feeling the tiredness beginning to overtake me, I succumbed, my last thought being Lily running on the beach with a carefree smile on her face.
*4 Hours Later*
A loud bang came from the bedroom door and I jerked awake. Dude, get your lazy ass out of bed, it’s 6 o’ clock already, Dean shouted from the hallway.
Alright man, thanks ! I yelled back, rubbing my eyes and getting off the bed slowly.
Shuffling over to the door, I yanked it open and walked out in to the living room. I saw that Dean was in the kitchen getting a drink and he glanced at me when I stumbled through. Yo man, you better get started on that pizza. It ain’t gonna make itself.
I’m getting on it, I sighed, still half asleep.
Ok, well I’m gonna go back to my room, he smiled. As I said before, I don’t wanna be the third wheel.
I’ll call you when it’s ready, I said, reaching in to the top cupboard and pulling out the ingredients I needed.
As I laid out everything, I heard Dean walk towards his bedroom and shut the door. Switching on the oven, I was just about to get started when there was a light knocking on the front door. I frowned and glanced at my watch. It was just after six, and Lily wasn’t coming until seven. Shrugging, I walked over to the door and opened it, surprised to find her standing there, wearing a pair of glasses no less.
I stared at her, raking my eyes over her body. She was just wearing her grey sweats and a white t-shirt, and her blonde hair was scraped up in a loose pony tail, but she looked gorgeous. And those glasses made her look sexy as hell.
Hey, she smiled. I know I’m early but I finished the assignment so I figured I’d come over.
I just carried on staring at her, a jolt of desire coursing through me as I imagined her in a sexy outfit, wearing those glasses. If it’s not okay… she trailed off, starting to walk backwards.
No, no ! I said, reaching out and pulling her towards me. I’m sorry, I was kind of distracted.
Huh ? Why ? She asked, looking down at herself.
Well, I grinned, I’ve never seen you wear glasses before.
I watched as her eyes went wide, and a blush crept up her neck. Oh crap ! She mumbled, reaching up to take them off. I forgot I still had them on.
As she started to take her glasses off, I reached out and stopped her. Maybe you should leave them on, I whispered, winking at her.
And why would I want to do that ? She asked, a small smile on her face.
Oh, no reason, I grinned, wrapping my arms around her waist and pulling her against me. They just look very sexy.
She snorted, not believing me. Are you serious ? She asked, looking up at me through the lenses.
Hell yes I’m serious, I murmured, Maybe we should get you a naughty schoolgirl outfit to wear them with.
In your dreams, she laughed, kissing me lightly on the lips.
Definitely, I chuckled, leading her in to the apartment.
Shutting the door, I turned around to see Lily staring at the messy kitchen filled with the ingredients and tools I needed to make the pizza. After a minute, she swivelled around. You cook ? She asked, sounding very surprised.
I’m not just a pretty face, I smiled, rocking back and forth on my feet.
Well, you’re just full of surprises, Lily whispered, leaning back against the counter.
And is that a bad thing ? I asked, hoping to God it wasn’t.
Are you kidding ? she laughed, stepping towards me slowly. It makes you very…. sexy.
Sexy, I repeated, liking the sound of that.
Stepping to the side and just out of her reach, I smiled. Staring at the bowl of flour sitting on the kitchen top, a thought popped in to my head. I couldn’t, could I ? I thought to myself. Hell yes I could. Dipping my hand in to the bowl, I grabbed a handful of flour and pulled it out. Grinning at Lily, I saw her eyes go wide as she dropped her eyes to my hand. The little white grains were falling in between my fingers, marking the hardwood floor.
Noah ? She said, starting to back away. What are you doing ?
I just grinned and stepped towards her, my hand at my side. Just having a little fun, I said innocently.
You’ll have to clean it afterwards, you know ? Lily muttered, her eyes focused on my hand filled with flour. It’ll be a mess.
You know what ? I smiled, inching closer.
What ?
I don’t care, I laughed, flinging my hand up towards Lily.
