Everyone has a price

"Wow.. I slept so good" it's the first thing I thought when the first light of the morning entered my window, shining on our faces, when I opened my eyes I found myself lost in his peaceful sleep.

Benji fell asleep in my bed the night before, I didn't know why but I chose to not wake him up, laying down next to him.

We were close, our faces looking one another, my nose touching his softly. I could feel his breath on my skin, my lips trembled, he was so close that maybe a kiss... No! I shouldn't have thought about that.

"Mmhh..." - he slowly woke up, straightening his arms, opening his beautiful dark eyes. I was looking at him, and when our eyes met I felt so nervous. Stay calm, I thought, it was only 8 am.

"Buenos Dias" - I said, smiling at him. He turned his eyes on me, looking down to my lips for a while before talking - "Buenos Dias." - he kept staring for a while, biting his low lip.

"It's a bit early for breakfast, maybe we can sleep a bit more. Sir Thomas always wakes me up at 9 am" - "Do you kissed him?" - I tried to talk about something that in the morning should have caught his attention but no, he only wanted to go right to the point.

I understood at that moment that he didn't fell asleep for random reasons, he was waiting for me to come home just to talk about my date.

"This is not about you" - I said, looking at him with serious eyes keeping his gaze on mine. He smiled, I hated it, he made me even more nervous.

He stayed silent for a while, playing with his messy dark hair, then he suddenly came closer to me, I turned up my brown eyes looking at his face, he smiled again, he could tell I was nervous.

"What are you doing Benji?" - " I wanna know how was your date" - "It was good".

I tried to end the conversation, to look not interested, I hide my face under my hand, pretending to be sleepy and the only thing I hoped in that moment was seeing him leave the bed, even if deep inside I wanted him to be jealous.

"Did you have fun?" - he whispered, without leaving the gaze on me. I ignored him, silence filled air between us, but he went on.
"Did he touched you?" - "N-no" - "Did he kissed you?" - "Please, stop!" - "Why you don't wanna tell me..." - "Because I do not have to give explanations!".

He looked at me with serious eyes, he wasn't smiling anymore, he stood up and sit on the bed pulling his dark hair behind. Damn, he looked beautiful, I thought looking at him.

"You promised me" - he interrupted my thoughts reaching my deep point, I never promised anything, but he knew I wasn't able to do something that would have hurt him. He looked up at me again, with that look that was telling me "I know you chose me" but of course, I didn't want to give him the winning game.

I sat on the bed, looking up at him, I saw him coming closer and took my hand. I felt thrills down my back, but I tried to hold my feelings to not show off how weak he made me become.

I spent one of the best night of my life yesterday, with Diego, but I had to be honest with myself saying that for the whole time I thought about Benji, how much he would be jealous if he could only see the way the horseman looked at me, smiled at me, the way he tried to kiss me and I refused... Again.

"Can I check out then?" - "Ch-check out what" - I said whispering, my voice was trembling as much as my skin - "If he kissed you" - he said, his face coming closer to me, my heart started racing as the first time he kissed me. Flashbacks in my head showed me the time in the pool, his lips.. His voice.. My moan...

I turned down my face, he was too close but I didn't want him to control me. As I did that, he looked at me and then he stood up and left the bed, however, my heart was asking for more.
