Business With Pleasure | 2gether AU

15 - AMA

I staggered out of the elevator and floated along the corridor to my apartment, high on a post-coital cloud.

Wat and I had made love on the bed and then had a make out session in the shower. Wat didn't want me to leave at all and was determined to render me incapable of walking.

"Please don't go, baby. Just spend the day with me here" he said, batting his long eyelashes and making puppy eyes at me.

I'd almost melted but then I remembered I had two bratty siblings who I hadn't checked in on since the end of the event last night.

I didn't even know if they had made it home safely. Neither of them had responded to my texts or calls.

Boss had assured me he would drop Pear home. Ren had mumbled something indistinctly and Fong had been with Earn.

It was still relatively early, just ten a.m. Wat and I had been up and at it since seven.

"I have to go. And didn't you say you had lunch with your family? I'll see you in the evening though. We are still on for dinner, right?" I asked him, cupping his sad baby face.

"But that's hours and hours away. I'll miss you so much, I might not even be alive till then" he whined.

I laughed and peppered his upturned face with kisses. "I'm the cute one in this relationship. You don't get to dethrone me, mister."

Wat smiled, dimpling affectionately at me. I kissed him softly and left, with a promise that I would see him again, very soon.

And so I found myself searching for my keys in the bag, not wanting to disturb Pear. As I stood at the front door, with my head down, I heard someone clearing their throat.

"Ahem, looks like you had a fun night. I hope you used protection like a responsible adult" said Ren, looking up and down at me with a smirk on his face.

I had no doubt at all that the many hickeys that bloomed red and purple on my neck and chest were visible even from the moon.

"Well, well, well. Look who's talking. I recognize a walk of shame when I see one. Who did you get it on with last night?" I asked him.

He had all the signs of a twenty-year old virgin who had finally seen heaven.

His face glowed, he had a goofy smile on his face, his eyes were dreamy and there were some very visible nail scratches on the side of his long neck administered by his lady love in the throes of passion.

Either that or he had been attacked by a cat.

"Gentlemen don't kiss and tell" he said mysteriously.

"I hope you used a condom correctly. You don't want to be a father at this age, trust me.
I've been a father since I was ten, and it's not nearly as fun as the commercials make it out to be" I snorted.

Ren immediately blanched. "Phiiii. I'm too young to be a dad. I think I did everything right, but you're making me second guess everything now."

I chuckled, my already perfect morning even better from freaking my brother out.

Pear was lying on the couch, curled up like a cat, reading the newspaper. A cup of coffee stood steaming on the table before her.

"Oh, hello bros. Or should I say hoes? The least y'all could do is to not parade your "I got some" status before the rest of us" she said grumpily.

Ren and I had the decency to blush and look around everywhere but at Pear.

She humphed and frowned at us. "Clearly, my boyfriend is the only one who believes in saving himself for a special occasion. You can both rest assured in the knowledge that my chastity is still preserved."
