XCIV
I don't know where we are going, but Ken says to dress casual. So I wear this asymmetrical jump suit we got earlier. It was a pastel pink color, I liked it because of the color. Kennedy says it does things to him. Like every other clothing we got from the store, he is such a cutie.
I pair the jump suit with a subtle grey wedge sandals. As I pull the grey envelope purse to my chest I realize that I could pass for a model, or someone who worked at Bavard creative department. I smile a watery smile. It was all coming together, my life I mean.
Someone knocked on the door.
"Are you done Lisa?" It was Kenny.
Even if he had seen everything already he still knocked.
"Yeah, I just need to touch up my make up. Are you guys done?"
I ask as I touch up my make up in the mirror.
The door parted slightly. He leaned lazily on the door frame. He wore a black suede tux, it molded to him perfectly, nothing could make the man look ugly, he was perfection.
His silver bands glistened in the light, contrasting starkly to the midnight black tux. His hair was slicked backwards. How did he do that in the short period of time?
"Cam fixed my hair, he has a weird obsession with fixing my look." He laughed.
I stare at him wide eyed.
"It wasn't an internal monologue. I heard everything." He says walking to me.
"At least I know you're not a mind reading genie."
"Why? Do you have thoughts you don't want me to know about?"
He had reached me by this time. He kissed my forehead chastely. But I was goo, puddle at his feet.
"You look stunning." He whispers.
Our eyes were locked together, his eyes were dark.
"Thank you." I whisper.
"Arrrgggh guys, keep it together. It's just a few hours."
Kennedy looked over to Cam, who stood by the door. He laughed.
"I came to see if she was done."
Cam snorts,
"Yeah sure."
"Okay, let's go." Kennedy announced as he rolled his eyes.
"Thank you." Cam says exasperated. He starts to go downstairs.
I remember something just as we are about to cross the threshold of the room.
"Wait." I say tugging on his arm. He turned to face me with a soft smile.
"The resumé we are supposed to work on it and submit it before midnight."
His eyes widen, then he smiled confidently.
"We'll get it done before midnight. We'll be back before midnight."
His confidence assured me. I smile at him.
"Okay, let's go."
And this time we do leave the room. Outside Cam was tapping his feet impatiently.
"Had to sneak a kiss or two?"
Kennedy laughed,
"Yes Cam, you're driving." He threw his keys at him.
Cam caught it mid air. And went to the driver's seat without an argument.
"Where are we going?" I ask.
"A surprise." He kissed my nose.
"I'm supposed to drive to a place called surprise?"
Kennedy rolled his eyes.
"The location is in the G.P.S, just follow it."
Cam nodded excitedly.
I try not to think about the pool of desire welling up inside of me since I saw him in the tux. The man was stirring up things in me that I assumed were dead.
My phone dinged, I used the hand not held in his to fish out my phone. There were numerous texts from Mariana begging for details.
'text me.'
'gimme deets'
'you better be ignoring me because you're humping Mr sexy.'
'or dead'
I chuckle.
Kennedy poked his head in my phone, I quickly lock it.
"What was that?"
"Nothing." I say too quickly. It would be so embarrassing for him to see what we have been talking about.
"Then it's definitely not nothing. Let me see." He says with a raised brow.
We wrestle for the phone for a bit. And by the help of his extremely long arms he pries the phone out of my hands.
I cover my face with my hands in shame as he scrolls through the messages.
"It seems I'm quite the celebrity around here." He says with a smug smile on his face.
I flush red with embarrassment as he continues to scroll. He must have seen the other embarrassing messages.
"You can stop reading them now." I groan.
He laughs before handing the phone back to me.
"Why? Are you ashamed that I read your dirty thoughts?"
He must be referring to the time I sent Mariana a meme about sucking someone empty. I had erased the old name and put Kennedy. I had said I was going to do it tonight. Now I regret using company time to send dirty messages.
"Uhm guys, you think you can spare me? I'm right here, please."
Kennedy doesn't pretend to have heard him. He just stared at my mouth, and then back to my eyes, his eyes lingering on my mouth enough to re ignite the desire I had pretended to hide.
"We are here." Cam announced excitedly.
I want to turn away from Kennedy's eyes, I want to look at where he had brought us, but I couldn't. I was drawn to him, he had this irresistible eyes that you couldn't look away from no matter hard you tried.
"Seriously? Guys we are doing this here? Now?" Cam asked in a tone that sounded like he wanted to cry.
That snapped us out of the haze, I turn to look at where we were parked. We were in front of a movie theater. The ones where they acted the movies live. Not ones recorded before.
We step out of the car and unto the curb. Cam was literally bouncing on the balls of his feet.
"No way, no fucking way!!"
Kennedy chuckles at his best friend.
"You earned it, you have worked really hard, happy anniversary."
"Thank you thank you. Let's go inside." Cam was already speed walking into the door.
"He has always wanted to watch them live, he says he wants his laugh to be recorded and used for sit coms for years."
I laugh. Cam was so child like.
"Let's go, it's about to begin."
We walk into the theater with linked arms and I feel a slight pain in my lower abdomen.
