Running in circles(Post Malone Story)COMPLETED

58

I slowly padded into the en suite still clutching the blanket but now holding my hand up to my lips. I now felt so exposed. It was strange, he had seen me so many times naked but this felt more intimate. I couldn't believe this was happening. Again. He kissed me and walked away AGAIN. Like this was turning into a reoccurring thing. He needed to stop doing this it's not fair on my poor confused brain. I've been resisting the urge to jump his bones since he walked through the door and then he KISSES me. I wasn't sure just how much longer my will power could hold out for. I was stuck between being really angry with him and whether to completely swoon.

I turned on the shower, dropping the towel and stepping into the steaming water. The only thing that would soothe me. I stood with my head angled out trying not to get my hair wet whilst letting the scolding water burn away last night's cold sweats. Was it just the whole thing of us being on and off that had him confused or did he actually want to try things again. I grabbed the puff and tried to scrub away all the confusing thoughts, by the time I stepped out of the shower my skin was red raw. I had managed to keep my hair dry so I just quickly plaited it into a halo and covered up the large deep purple bags under my eyes before applying light makeup. If he was going to force me out of the house then I was going to look somewhat alive, especially if we got recognised. I started to panic slightly as I hadn't thought about us being seen together. I braced myself against the counter trying to regain my composure as I took in deep breaths before slowly blowing them out. I managed to get calm myself quite quickly, giving myself just enough time to get dressed before Austin appeared again.

"Knock, knock" He slowly craned his neck around the door to make sure he didn't walk in on me in a compromising situation again. "You look pretty" he looked me up and down with a small smile on his face. I couldn't help but blush from his attentive words while my heart started to beat out of my chest.

"Thanks, I thought I might as well wear some clothes that suit the beautiful weather instead of sweatpants" I did a small curtsey pulling the skirt of my white summer dress out. The tan that I had developed had now slightly dissipated but It still looked somewhat caramel against the stark white of the dress. He looked delectable as he leaned against my bedroom doorframe, my mouth suddenly started to water. He was dressed in a white Trading Post T shirt, black sweats and some white crocs. In the golden light of day I could really take him in. He had lost weight, not dramatically but I could see his sweats hanging from his hips. I think I had gained the weight he had lost. His hair had started to grow back in and he had obviously had the sides trimmed to grow the top. His growing fringe had started to curl up which made my heart melt. He pulled out a woollen hat and pulled it over the slight curls.

"Ready to shop till we drop?" he smiled as he motioned for us to leave.

"Only if you take this off" I reached up and pulled the hat off his head. He caught my hand on the way down and my heart fluttered.

"My hair looks stupid, I'm trying to grow it a little" he looks down embarrassed as he runs his hand across it.

"I think it looks cute" I blushed as I spoke realising how flirty I sounded.

"Well in that case" he throws the hat onto my messy bed. I smile as he leads me out of the room, his hand on the small of my back.

I hadn't even thought about how he got here last night or even how we where going to go shopping. I was completely wrapped up in the fact that he was actually here. I had been Ubering or getting taxis the whole time I had been in Europe, so it never occurred that we didn't have a vehicle. But once we reached the front of the house and I had locked up the house, I turned to see a gleaming white Bentley. I shook my head, rolling my eyes and I looked at him wondering why he had to be so extra. He looked back at me and he just shrugged and gave me a shit eating grin. I got in the plush vehicle putting my small LV backpack down next to my tan sandal clad feet.
