A cloud of white sailed towards her and hit her in the chest. The flour covered her t-shirt and sweat pants, and some of it even reached her chin. I chuckled hysterically as Lily stood there with her arms out, looking at me with her mouth wide open. Bits of flour were in her hair, and as she shook, it fell to the hardwood floor, turning it white.
I held my sides, in serious danger of getting a stitch because I was laughing so hard. You are so dead ! She yelled, running towards me with a huge grin on her face.
Quickly sidestepping, I dodged her and ran back near the front door. Leaning against the wall, I stopped laughing when I saw Lily grab the tube of tomato sauce and unscrew the cap.
Uh oh ! I muttered, pushing off from the wall and stepping forward. Now come on Lily, you know you don’t want to do this.
Even as I said it, I noticed the way she grinned at me. Crap ! Lunging to the side, I grabbed the bowl of flour and dodged past her, running in to the hallway. Spinning around, my eyes widened as I saw Lily right in front of me. Never start something you can’t finish, she laughed, squeezing the tube.
I put my arm up, trying to shield myself but it was no good. I felt the sauce hit me in the chest, soaking through my hoodie. Before I could say anything, Dean’s door opened and he stuck his head out. What the hell is going
Splat !
I burst out laughing as Lily hit Dean straight in the face with the sauce. He cried out and reached blindly, looking like he was trying to find something to punch. Turning around to grin at Lily, I held the bowl up and nodded towards Dean, who was still cursing and rubbing his eyes.
Do it, she nodded.
Laughing, I turned back to Dean and smiled. Blame this one on Lily, I whispered, before dumping the bowl of flour over him and dropping it to the floor.
Oh for God’s sake, he shouted, standing in the middle of the hallway with flour piled on top of his head and falling over his shoulders.
I grabbed Lily’s hand and pulled her in to the living room quickly. As we turned around, Dean came stomping in with a murderous look on his face. I was taking a nap ! He shouted, stalking towards us.
Well you’re the one who poked your head out, Lily laughed beside me.
Yes, I nodded, trying to keep a straight face. So if you think about it, it’s all your fault really.
That’s it ! Dean muttered, barely audible.
Lily and I just watched as he reached up and grabbed the flour that was still resting on top of his head. We both backed away, huge smiles on our faces. I cried out as Dean ran towards us, thrusting his hand forwards and letting go of the flour, sending it falling over us and the sofa. Laughing, I pulled Lily in to the kitchen. Dean soon caught up so I just held my hands up.
Truce, truce ! I yelled, realizing the state the apartment was in.
I second that, Lily whispered beside me, sinking to the floor.
Breathing out heavily, I sat down beside her. Without looking up, I felt Dean slide down next to me. We were all silent for a minute, and just like that, we all burst out laughing hysterically. After we had all calmed down, I reached over and took hold of Lily’s hand. She entwined her fingers with mine and smiled at me, a smudge of flour across her nose.
So, takeout ? I grinned.
Hell yeah, she said, standing up and letting go of my hand. But first I’m gonna go back to my place and shower.
As soon as she said it, images of her naked body flashed through my mind and I felt a jolt of pleasure shoot though my groin. I just nodded as she walked over to the front door and opened it. See you guys in a bit, she smiled.
Bye Lily, Dean waved.
When she shut the door, I turned to Dean and raised my eyebrows. His face was completely covered in flour and so was his hair. His black t-shirt no longer looked black, and under the flour was a faint hint of red from the tomato sauce. I dreaded to think what I looked like.
Dude, now that girl is awesome, he grinned, getting up off the kitchen floor and walking through the food covered living room.
Yeah she is… I yelled back.
…But she’s my girl, I mumbled under my breath as I heard the shower spray coming from the bathroom. And as I got up from the floor, I smiled to myself. I had a feeling that Lily would always be my girl.
Solely Noah POV :
After taking a quick shower, I pulled on my pyjama bottoms and an old shirt and walked out in to the living room. Dean had decided to just make a sandwich and eat it in his room, which was fine with me. Wandering in to the kitchen, I opened the fridge and saw that we had enough food, meaning that we didn’t need to call for a takeout. I reached in and grabbed the dip, checking that it wasn’t out of date.
Satisfied that it wasn’t, I walked over to the top cupboard and got the chips. Just as I opened the bag to sneak a chip, someone knocked on the other side of the door. I grinned and put the bag down, and walking over to the door, I swung it open happy to see Lily standing there.
Her hair was still damp and was falling over her shoulders. It was causing the top of her white shirt to become see through, and I couldn’t help but notice the blue straps of her bra that were visible underneath. Lowering my gaze, I smiled when I saw that she had a pair of black shorts on, and they only reached mid-thigh. As my eyes travelled down those long legs, I couldn’t help but laugh out loud when I saw what was on her feet.
What the hell are those ? I grinned, leaning against the door frame.
They’re Homer Simpson slippers, she laughed. Cool, huh ?
I raised an eyebrow as I stared at them. They were made to look as if the person wearing them had their feet in Homer’s mouth. And they were totally awesome. Never mind the fact that they made Lily even cuter than she was already.
So are you gonna invite me in ? I heard her laugh, Or are we just going to stand out here all evening ?
Oh yeah, right, I smiled sheepishly. I’m sorry ; you just seem to have that effect on me.
She laughed as she walked past me and entered the apartment. Taking a deep breath, I followed her inside and shut the door. As soon as I turned around and saw her standing there, my eyes lowered to her bare legs. Damn, I thought, how the hell am I going to keep my eyes off her ? Clearing my throat, I turned to the kitchen counter and held up the chips and dip in each hand, willing myself not to let my gaze wander.
So, do you want to order takeout ? Or shall we just eat some chips and watch a movie ? I smiled.
Chips and a movie sound good, Lily replied, turning around and striding over to the couch.
I could do nothing but stare as she collapsed on to it and stretched out her legs. The movement had caused her shorts to ride up a little higher and I groaned, a surge of desire running through me. Crap, I thought, how the hell am I gonna stand this all evening ? Shaking my head, I wandered over and sat down beside her, placing the chips and dip on the table.
So you want to pick the movie ? I shrugged. And please, please do not say ‘The Notebook’.
I watched as she turned towards me, a huge grin on her face. The Notebook ? She said, Why would I want to watch that. I’m more of a Die Hard kind of girl.
My mouth dropped open as I looked at her. Die Hard ? I repeated, thinking how lucky I was. You like that kind of stuff ?
Hell yeah I do, she nodded eagerly, reaching over for a chip. John McClane blowing up stuff is just frickin’ awesome.
Grinning, I reached over and pulled her towards me. She looked at me in surprise as I crashed my lips against hers, threading my fingers through her hair. As I deepened the kiss, she wrapped her arms around my neck and bit my bottom lip. I growled softly, unable to control the jolt of pure lust that reached my groin. Panting, I pulled back and looked at her.
