are we meant to be?

part 72

...

we are taking turns opening the presents with our names on it then we have to guess who it's from. jaden takes his guitar out of the gigantic box.

jaden: holy shit this is awesome! obviously from carson

i laugh and he hugs me, thanking me for the guitar. after a few more people open their gifts, it was my turn but there was nothing with my name on it.

addison: so since your last you obviously know it's me

i nod and laugh.

addison: so i can't really give you your gift but um- i arranged for both of your families and the richards to come down to LA for christmas. you'll all stay in sway together. i know you've been stressing out about what to do.

i hug her so tight.

you: thank you so fucking much addi!

they laughs and didn't know i'd be this excited.

...

that night josh and i are laying in his bed. he's shirtless like always and i'm just in his t-shirt and my underwear. josh is watching basketball on his tv while i lay here gently scratching his chest with my acrylics. idk it's soothing to him i guess. but i just want his attention. not necessarily for like sex- i just want him to stop watching basketball and like have a conversation with me or something.

you: j

he didn't hear me. he's too focused on the game.

josh: shit- no no!

he always yells at the tv. he's like an old man.

you: joshua

still doesn't answer me. i sigh and turn facing away from him, and move to the edge of the bed. i know that'll get his attention.

josh: what are you doing baby?
you: going to sleep
josh: come back over here

i shake my head no. i feel his hands grip my waist as he turns me and pulls me back into him. he lifts one of my legs, wrapping it around his torso. i love when he's like this. he realizes that he wasn't giving me attention and now wants to make up for it. i hear him turn off the tv.

josh: your so beautiful

he pecks my lips and then slowly starts to kiss me. he licks my bottom lip until my lips part, allowing him to deepen the kiss. finally he pulls apart.

josh: i love you

i give in. he's too cute.

you: i love you too
josh; that's what i thought *laughs

i make a face at him and he laughs.

josh: so you excited to see all your family?
you: ya kinda nervous though. my families are meeting for the first time
josh; i think it'll be ok

he shrugs.

you: i don't know. charli always thinks i'm gonna replace her with carter when i go visit new jersey
josh: maybe if they like bond or something she won't think that
you: maybe your right
josh: i'm always right *laughd
you: shutup
