“Hi,” I purred seductively as I walked over to my bed and sat down.“Hi,” he replied with a small smile. He made no moves to come towards me; I think he was trying not to rush me. I patted the bed beside me and he eagerly trotted over and sat down.“Thanks for checking my room,” I whispered, playing with the neck of his t-shirt, tracing my finger along the skin there.“Anytime. I’m just sorry I won’t be here for you tonight. Try not to have too many nightmares, OK?” He looked at me with sad eyes; we both knew that I would have nightmares without him here.I got onto my knees and moved to him, throwing my leg over his so I was sitting on his lap, straddling him. I wrapped my arms around his neck and looked into his beautiful blue eyes. He looked a little taken aback but his eyes danced with excitement.“I’m sorry that Claire’s staying over. I’m actually really going to miss you half crushing me to death in the night,” I teased. I said it as a joke but to be honest I really was goin

I could feel my nerves bubbling up. “Er…. well I…. er…. Oh! Freddie borrowed it when he stayed here, so it must smell like him,” I lied, stumbling over my word She buried her head in the pillow. “Mmm, I’m sleeping with this one tonight,” she stated, holding the pillow tight.I choked on my laughter. “Whatever, Claire. Let’s go eat I’m starved.” I pushed myself up off of the bed and walked towards the door so we could get the food ordered.“I got this!” she chirped, waving a DVD in front of my face. Even the cover scared the heck out of me. I rolled my eyes and stalked out of the room plopping down onto the sofa next to Freddie. He put his hand down onto the sofa next to mine and discreetly rubbed his little finger across mine when no one was looking.“Have you ordered the food, Richard?” I asked, shifting sideways on the seat so that my knee touched Freddie’s thigh. I saw a smile play at the corner of his mouth.“Yep, done. It’ll be here in ten,” Richard said, shifting up the oth

“Well, I don’t know why you’re looking so cocky about it; you’re not going to sleep too brilliantly either.” I grinned, sticking my tongue out at him.“Hmm, is that an invitation?” he asked, raising an eyebrow. I instantly realised what he was talking about, he was asking if I wanted to kiss him again because I showed him my tongue. I sure as heck did.“Sure,” I purred, looking at him seductively, knowing that he couldn’t reach me over the table so he would have to wait until after we left the restaurant.He immediately jumped out of his chair and bent down next to me, taking my face in his hands and kissing me, not seeming to care where we were or if people were watching. I took the initiative this time and traced my tongue along his bottom lip, he opened quickly and I slipped my tongue in. He moaned into my mouth, pulling me closer to him. The kiss was so good that it was making me slightly dizzy. He didn’t once try to touch me other than holding my face, which I was surprise

He just laughed and started driving. “How about Chinese? You like that, right?” he asked, glancing at me from the corner of his eye.“Yeah, I love Chinese food!” I chirped happily, grinning like I’d won the lottery. Richard hated Chinese food so we hardly ever had it; Freddie smiled and drove us to the restaurant on the high street.We were now sitting, eating our food. We had been chatting happily for nearly an hour and I was again surprised by how easy it was to talk to him. I’d known him for twelve years and I’d never really just spoken to him properly about stuff. His leg brushed mine under the table and made me jump, not because of my fear, but because it sent a little jolt through my system, making the hairs on the back of my neck prick up and my pulse quicken.I decided now was the time to sort it out, there was only one other couple in the restaurant so we could talk freely, but I just didn’t know how to begin. “Freddie, I think we need to talk about something,” I said qui

“Fine, it’s nearly one anyway so we’d better clear the studio,” Justin said, holding out his hand to help me up.I shook my head, laughing. “Can’t. I honestly can’t move,” I muttered, closing my eyes, trying to catch my breath. The next thing I know Freddie was there, he grabbed hold of me and picked me up, throwing me over his shoulder as if I weighed nothing at all, and headed towards the girls shower room, laughing. “What the hell are you doing?” I cried, still annoyed at him for what he did to me last night.“Helping you,” he stated. I could tell he was smirking by his stupid sexy voice.“Put me down!” I ordered, trying to wriggle free, but he just gripped me tighter.I heard the shower turn on.No! He wouldn’t!He did.He stepped into the shower, putting me down under the spray, both of us getting completely soaked. I stood there, shocked. I had a change of clothes with me so it didn’t really matter, but I didn’t think that he did. Ha, stupid idiot, now he has to sit in hi

I wriggled a little and pushed my cellphone back onto the side. “Freddie, Justin said I need to kick your hot ass out of my bed and get there, fast.” I chuckled.He groaned and buried his face into my back. “Damn Saturdays are a pain in my ass,” he muttered, rolling off of me onto his back. I turned my head to look at him; he was giving me his trademark smirk. “Your t-shirt’s ridden up a bit there. Want me to get that for you?” he asked, looking down at my backside. I hastily shot my hands down to feel that his t-shirt that I was wearing, was now up bunched up around my waist, which meant he had a clear view of my ass in my thong. I didn’t quite know where we stood after last night, but I think I had the right to tease him a little. It’s not like he’d never seen me in my underwear before, he saw enough of me last night while I was being sick in just my underwear!“No thanks. I got it.” I climbed out of the bed and stripped off his t-shirt, throwing it in his face so I was just

“What are you talking about? He did! He just kissed me and stole it,” I croaked, a tear falling from my eye. He wiped it away with his thumb and shook his head.“Yeah, he did just kiss you, but that wasn’t your first kiss. I had that a long time ago,” he explained, with a half smile that made his face look beautiful.What the hell was he talking about? I’d never kissed him. I frowned, thinking back, trying to remember. “Remember when I hurt myself when I fell out of that tree in my front garden? I was thirteen and my freaking leg hurt so badly, and you asked what you could do to make the pain go away.” He closed his eyes and shook his head at the memory, with a small smile playing at the corners of his lips.I gasped. Oh my gosh, that’s right! He’d asked me to kiss him and I did, well, twice actually. He said that it was still hurting and asked me to kiss him again. Right after that, Richard came out of the house and caught us; he punched Freddie in the face for it. Oh crap
