“Are you okay?” Roman asked, as his gaze was fixed on Andrea, who was struggling with the zipper of her dress.
“Uhhm, can you help me with my zip?” She asked, and bit her lips. She couldn’t look him in the eyes after what they’d just done a few moments ago. Her face was flushed and she felt shy and embarrassed about it, especially when she was the one that ensued. But he kissed her first. Her thoughts jumped from one scene to another and she didn’t hear or notice when Roman said sure and made his way towards her.
“Andy.” His deep voice called her out of her thoughts and she flinched, embarrassment washing over her again.
“Yes?”
“Are you sure you’re okay?”
“Hmm,” she nodded and turned around.”Here get the zip.”
Roman fingers grazed her skin as he reached for the zip, a wave of shiver cursed through her body and she bit her lips harder. It was then that it hit her mind that he had just called her Andy, instead of Andrea. She smiled slightly, her heart dancing in excitement.
“Done.” He said, and moved back a bit from her.
“Thanks.”
He hummed and turned around, their conversation was a bit awkward and brief. When Andrea was done dressing, she turned towards him, “I’m done.”
Her dress from the previous night was stained, so Roman got a new dress in the morning, which she wore after their session earlier.
She grabbed her bag and walked ahead of him, she hadn’t reached the door when his voice stopped her. “Andy.”
He was using the word again. She paused and turned around to meet his gaze.
“You’re not going to pretend like nothing happened between us this morning, are you?”
Andrea was stuck dumb by his sudden question, which she did not expect.
“Andrea? If you don’t want to talk about it, it’s okay, and I understand but then again ”
“Not that.” She abruptly cut him off. “The thing is, I’m not sure about what to say, but I can’t pretend like nothing happened.”
Roman’s gaze softened as he closed the distance between them. “Then don’t.” “We don’t have to pretend like nothing happened, we’re adults.”
Andrea remained silent.
“Let’s take one step at a time, we can start from being friends, so I’ll get to know you better, what do you think about that?”
“That’s okay, too.”
“You’re sure?”
“Hmm,” she nodded and then smiled.
“What’s with your smile?”
She shook her head, “You’re just different, I-i don’t know but the Roman I know can’t say these words.”
“What? Was I that bad?”
“No, but yes.” She smiled.
Roman smiled too and grabbed her hands, “Let’s get going, you still need to get home, I’m sure your friends are worried.”
“Sure,” she nodded and went along with him. Her entire body tingling with sweetness, especially with his hands on hers.
It wasn’t a long drive to Andrea’s apartment. Roman’s car pulled to a halt in front of the large building, he came down from the car and helped her to carry the bags of items he got from shopping on their way.
Andrea was surprised to find three of her friends in her apartment, they were all seated on the bed and had their gaze glued to the door like they’d been waiting for her to enter. They were about to scream, but paused immediately when Roman entered.
“Roman.” Ruby was first to speak, a smile forming on her lips.
Roman gave Ruby a polite nod, his expression unready. He set Andrea’s bags down by the door, glancing at her friends who were eyeing her with a mix of curiosity and excitement.
Andrea quickly stepped forward, “Thank you Roman, you should get going.”
“Andrea, are you chasing him away already? Roman please come have a sit, I’ve known you for less time now. I want to get to know you more.” Ruby stated, cutting Andrea off.
“Ruby!” Andrea hissed, feeling her cheeks burn, but Ruby just winked, unfazed.
“Roman, please don’t mind her, I’ll see you off.”
Roman smiled, “No need, you’all enjoy, I’ll get going.”
“Alright, bye.”
He nodded and left.
Immediately Roman left, Ava reached for the window to check if he was really gone, once he was far from the apartment she hurried to Andrea. “Spill it all baby, give us the gist of everything.”
“Yes, spill it!” Eva added, along with Ruby, who had her gaze keen on Andrea.
“What? You guys are making me embarrassed.”
“Drop it right now and spill! Did you do it with him?”
Andrea cheeks flushed, giving away the answer.
“They did it, I knew it!” Ruby bragged with excitement.
“Don’t be stingy with words, just give us a little detail. After all, we saw him fighting those guys and decided to let him take you home. Won’t you compensate us?” Eva sighed.
“Fine, fine, we did nothing in the night, it was this morning. But he changed my dress and underwear last night.” She said, biting her lips in embarrassment.
“Gosh, he’s so caring. But I still chose Brent, he’s good with his dick and handsome too.” Ava jokes.
“Roman’s good too in that aspect, and he’s handsome too, I like the way he is.” Andrea defended.
“Cry or moan?”
“Ava!”
“Answer the damn question, Andrea. Did you cry or moan, let’s know how good he was.” Eva cut her off sharply.
“Both.”
“He’s that good? Maybe I should try him out.”
“Ruby, don’t you dare!” Andrea glared sharply at her.
“I was kidding. Don’t give me that look, please.”
They all bursted into laughter, extremely happy for the outcome of letting Roman take her home.
“Time to unbox the package, what did he get you?” Eva smiled
“I have no idea.”
“Andrea you left no food in the fridge, I’m hungry.” Ava grumbled, slamming the fridge shut
“I’m out of groceries, will go get some later. Did you not eat before coming here?”
“None of us did, we didn’t want to call you so we won’t disturb your moment, so we came here early in the morning.” Ruby stated.
“Aww so sorry, I’d make an order then.”
“Good.”
After they placed an order, they returned to opening the things Roman got for her.
