Chapter 17
"You look thoughtful, what's wrong?" he asks and I avoid eye contact and stare at the wall by my side.
"Roxy, my best friend had a bad day and I am worried about her. That's all," I sigh.
"Relax, you pretty young thing, she'll be okay, just breathe in and out and enjoy the moment," he grins at me.
I do as instructed and once I breathe out, I repeat his exact words in a whisper more to myself than to him
"Enjoy the moment," and I lean back.
Out of nowhere Blake softly shouts to no one in particular.
"Play some Destiny's Child,"
"Say what now?" I ask.
Immediately 'Say My Name' by Destiny's Child starts playing and I face palm myself.
"Oh, that. Seems like you only have to speak and everything is done for you around here," I tease.
He smirks.
"Yeah, it's quite fun you should try it some time. Start with the music if you wish, just say which song you want," he looks at me and I bite my lower lip trying to think of any Destiny's Child song.
"Oh I know one!" my voice comes out more of a squeak than a calm one.
"Play Destiny's Child, Survivor," I say and smile like an idiot when the song comes on.
"You did it," Blake laughs and I join him. He catches me offguard when he lifts me to get on top of him and I squeal. I sit on his thighs with my feet on his sides.
He is holding my waist like I am a Barbie doll and automatically my hands are on his shoulders and our eyes lock.
What do I do? What do I do!?
Fuck!
"Relax," is all he says as he tucks my hair behind me ears.
"Did you think about what I told you last time, at the park?" he leans forward to take in my scent and sighs calmly.
Holy Mary, mother of Jesus!
I didn't think about it at all. All the drama that's been happening made me forget that he even asked me to be his girlfriend. My subconcious rolls her eyes at me and I sigh.
"Honestly Blake, alot has been going on but I'm still thinking about it," I choose to lie.
I don't want to talk about it and so I change the topic before he can speak.
"So, at the park, you told me your parents were coming back, where are they anyway?" I ask.
"You have a good memory, nice. Well they flew to Canada for another project, they only stayed here for three days and went back. I rarely get enough time with them but I am used to it," he says and his hands move to my thighs and I swear I feel my stomach overturning. Is there water getting hotter or is it my body, because the temperature is definitely rising in here.
"Oh, my dad travels alot too but he comes home for a month or two. He's an investigative journalist, and works with BBC," I inform him and he's amazed.
"Whoah! That's incredible," he says.
Silence crosses between us again as Survivor finally comes to an end. Blake wears a sly look and he moves his hands to grab my bum.
"Play Cater To You by Destiny's Child," he says and the seductive song starts playing and I swallow hard. What are his intentions? I mean, if you've never seen the video and you're a guy, you'll get a boner by the end of the song.
Blake's touch brings me back to reality and a tingly sensation fills my entire body all the way to my toes. My heart palpitates and my breathing is abnormal.
He pulls me closer to him such that my face is inches from his and I can feel his warm breath on me, his eyes lower to my lips and I blink fast as he moves in closer to kiss me.
When our lips lock, my heart stops for a second I think and my blood races fast through my veins, his torturing lips and tongue maneuver professionally in slow motion, flowing with the song's rhythm and the minty taste makes me release a moan unwillingly when he grabs onto my bum tightly. I am writhing on top of him in high pitched pleasure as he kisses my neck and my collar bone when my phone rings.
Urgh! Not now, please.
I roll my eyes and Blake offers to pick the phone from the couch, he brings it back to me and I almost drop it in the water when I see my mom's name.
"Mom, hey," I nearly choke, pressing the phone onto my ear.
"Honey, how are you doing?" she inquiries.
"I'm good mom, what's up?"
"Oh, I have a surprise for you darling and I need you to see it now, it just came in,"
"Mom, don't you think it's abit late?"
"I asked Scott to drive you here, he's said he'll be at your hostel in fifteen minutes,"
Oh, shit!
I try to get out of the water but I miss a step and clumsily fall back in. Embarrassed, I sit back down covering my face in front of Blake.
"Honey, where are you? Are you in a pool at this time of the night?"
"No! No mom, I uhm..." I try to come with a lie quickly, "... It's one of my friends birthday and she's been avoiding us because she doesn't want us to pour water on her," I laugh nervously and she buys it.
"Oh, okay, see you when you get here," and she hangs up.
Immediately I rush out of the jacuzzi and grab a towel to dry myself.
"What's up? Where are you going in such a hurry?" Blake asks as I dab the towel all over my body. I need to change quickly.
"My mom needs me, right now. So, so sorry, Blake, but I have to leave," I apologize.
"Oh, too bad for me, keep the bikini though. Why don't I drive you there?"
"Nope! My mom will freak out, and I don't know if I should be carrying around a wet bikini, so..." I run to the bathroom and hurriedly wear my clothes, the ends of my hair are wet but I care less since it's "my friend's birthday"
Rushing out, I try to figure out where the door is and I can't seem to spot it, it's like it camouflaged.
"Behind you on your right" Blake chuckles and I blush.
Grabbing the door knob I turn back to look at him.
"Thanks for tonight," I say with a smile.
"This was nothing, but you're welcome. Party at my house this Friday, don't miss," he winks at me and I grin.
"I won't miss it," I reply and lock the door behind me rushing down the stairs. Wait, there's an elevator and here I am running down a fleet of stairs. I'm that dumb, and I still manage to get downstairs and dial Scott's number.
"Where you at?" I ask as soon as he picks his phone, just as I am out of the gates.
"To your left," he says and I spot his fancy car.
Thank God, he must have known where I was, but I have no idea how. I ride shotgun and we drive off.
