Chapter 37
"Who's Blake?" Vic questions softly.
"My boyfriend," I announce and his facial expression changes from calm to infuriated.
"Oh." Is all that comes out of Vic's mouth.
We later on decide to watch a movie since the awkwardness is too much and no one wants to talk.
At dinner, we sit quietly enjoying the spicy chicken my mom cooked. Roxy is seriously licking her fingers when the front door opens and my dad pops in.
"Whoah! I almost thought no one was inside. I didn't except you to be this many," dad says when he gets to the dining table and eyes everyone in the room. He gives mom a kiss on the cheek and sits down.
"Let me get you a plate, honey." Mom stands up from the table but dad stops her.
"Oh, don't worry, I can get it." Then his eyes move to Vic, "Wait, Vic?" he squints a little at him.
"Yeah, it's me." Vic smiles.
"What a surprise! When did you arrive? Kyrah never mentioned anything to me." Dad is looking at me now and I shrug.
"Dad, let him finish his meal first," I suggest.
Scott chuckles from the end of the table.
"The Trents don't play with chicken on their plates," Roxy adds, biting a piece and groans, "Mmh! I can eat this for the rest of my life. Thanks Mrs Bailey."
"You're welcome, dear," mom responds with a satisfied smile.
Today feels like the longest day of my entire life and I just want it to end urgh!
When everyone is done eating including dad, Scott and Vic head back to his house to sleep and my parents head upstairs.
"Hey." Roxy looks thoughtful and I can't help but ask, "Are you okay?"
"Yeah. I just err, have to go back to my hostel-"
"No way! You can sleep in my room."
"I know, but since there's no chance of me continuing with my classes, it would be best if I just go pack my stuff. Don't worry, I'm taking the bus," she states and I pull her into a hug.
"Alright then. Call me if you need anything and say hi to Maeve for me," I say.
"Sure thing." She stands up from the dining table and walks out.
In my bedroom, I sit on my bed thinking about almost everything.
"Sitting here feeling depressed won't help me in anyway," I say out loud and head downstairs to grab a book from my dad's shelves. I choose one that I've never read before, one that's about the first world war.
Yeah, pretty boring but, I need something to put me to sleep very fast. Without wasting time, I'm back in my room in a jiffy and change into my tiny shorts and tank top. I lie down on my bed and start reading.
Minutes later my eyes are getting heavier and I can't really tell when I fall asleep and for how long, until I am woken up by someone touching my face.
"What the-" I say.
I open my eyes and jump in freight when I see Blake.
"Blake?" I shout as I reach for the lamp on my night stand and switch it on.
"Ssh! Be quiet, you don't want your mom finding me here," he says, holding me by the shoulders.
I shake my head and rub my sleepy eyes. Why is he here?
"H-how did you get in?" I question, moving on my bed for him to sit and he points at the window.
"No way!" I raise my brows.
"Uh-huh, there was a ladder outside so I decided to climb up. I thank God I didn't walk into your parents bedroom, that would have been a major catastrophe! Kyrah, I couldn't sleep at all and thought, why not go for a drive and well, here I am." He smirks as his eyes move downwards from my face. Immediately I cover myself with the sheets.
"Don't cover up when you're with me babe. If we were living together, you'd never wear any clothes," he coos as his hand caresses my left cheek.
I swallow dryly as his hands reach for my thighs and slowly move to my waist.
God!
His touch drives me crazy. Even the slightest brush from his fingers makes me want to tear him down. Unaware, his lips fall on mine and I swear my entire body goes weak. Wobbly to be precise. I want to know why he is here but I can't seem to find my words.
Whatever this man does to me, I can't explain. It's like he takes me to the galaxy and back.
"Blake," I moan when his lips slowly move to my neck. He stops and looks at me.
"Why are you here?" my eyes focus on his.
"I'm here to apologize, babe," he answers and lifts me into his arms and I squeal. I cover my mouth at the realization that I'd wake my parents. Blake places me gently on top of him such that I am sitting on his torso and he is below me. My temperature is rising rapidly!
He begins lifting my tank top upwards to take it off and automatically my hands go up and once he takes it off, my hands fall back down carelessly, hitting a water bottle which is on the night stand.
The noise it makes when it falls makes me want to curse out loud, but I can't. We both pause waiting for the water bottle to stop spinning on the floor, then we sigh. What time is it? My eyes move to my alarm clock on the night stand and it shows 3:00AM.
"Kyrah!"
Shit! It's my mom.
My heart is racing fast when I hear her open their bedroom door.
"Honey, you better not be watching movies at this time. I told you, sleep is very important. Now stop dropping things in your room and get your beauty sleep," she croaks and slams the door. I look down at Blake whose eyes are bulging and we both release long sighs of relief.
Phew!
Thank God, she didn't walk in on me on top of Blake. I'd die of embarrassment.
"She's gone," Blakes whispers and his hands snake round my back, holding my bra to unhook it but I deny him access.
"No. You might get me in a lot of trouble. Please leave," I whisper and he frowns, pursing his lips.
"Before I leave, please tell me you are not going to stay mad at me," he says. This time, he pouts and I kiss his soft lips.
"I forgive you, now go back home, we'll catch up... Babe," I say.
He grins and I move to the other side of the bed when he stands up and heads for the window.
"I love you Blake," I whisper seductively and he turns to face me.
"Love you too, babe," then he blows me a kiss which I pretend is a real thing, so I catch it in the air and place it on my lips. He then winks and goes out the window, quietly. A few seconds later, I hear his car's engine come alive and he drives off.
The thought of Blake kissing me in my own house, without being caught makes me feel like he's a bad boy, and I love it. Also the fact that he climbed up my window makes me grin like an idiot, I usually see that in movies only. I want to squeak in excitement but I don't want to wake my mom up.
Wow! I bite my lower lip when his face flashes my mind and goosebumps cover my whole body. I just love the effect he has on me, it's only been a week of being with him but I'd say it feels like I've known him forever.
"My knight in shining armor," I whisper as I switch off the lights and pull the covers over me.
