untold desire || weston koury

chapter eighteen

a/n bye this is so awk bc after this chapter i will have written four chapters that all occur on the same day ..... should i do more time skips or do u guys like it like this

kalynn and i pick out cute outfits for the boardwalk to pass some time, but since we have limited clothes it doesn't take very long. 

"i'm gonna hop in the shower," kalynn says after we lay out all of our articles of clothing on our beds. "i never got one after swimming this morning and my skin feels so dry."

"go for it," i respond. my heart begins to pound a bit harder when i realize its probably a good time to talk to weston now. 

she walks out and i hear the bathroom door shut, so i walk down the hall to weston's room. the door is closed all the way, so i knock. 

"yeah?" he calls quietly.

"can i come in?"

"yeah."

i take a quick breath before pushing the door open. he's watching something on his laptop, but closes it lightly at the sight of me. i sit at the end of his bed, but he pats the space next to him instead, so i move up closer.

his eyes study my expression. "what's up?"

i figure i should've prepared something to say, but i didn't, so i'll have to let the words flow. "i wanted to talk about what happened today."

"okay." 

i look down at the comforter and pick at my nails. "well i didn't give that guy my number because we are kind of a thing, obviously."

"yes, i got that part," he laughs slightly with no humor behind it. 

i smile weakly, but it fades as i continue speaking. "buttt it wasn't because i wasn't looking to be in a relationship."

he clenches his jaw. "i don't-"

i interrupt him, hoping he'll catch what i'm saying. "i'm not looking to be in a relationship with anyone else, but for one person i can make an exception." 

the room becomes so quiet that i can hear kalynn's shower running a few rooms over. 

"oh," he finally says. i cannot read the look on his face, so i reach out to touch his cheek.

his eyes flit up to meet mine, and he kisses my lips softly. when he pulls away, he presses his forehead against mine while our breathing syncs together rhythmically. 

"don't take this the wrong way," he stops, trying to capture my reaction. 

i just roll my eyes. "i'll try my best."

the left side of his mouth curves into a half-smile. "i would love to date you.. at some point. but like you said it would be going too fast if we-"

i snort back a laugh and lean back on a few decorative pillows. "i wasn't asking you to be my boyfriend, but i'm glad you were listening about the going too fast part."

he brings a hand up to scratch the back of his neck. "well, that's awkward."

"hey," i sit back up and float closer to him. "i want us to happen though. we're on the same page, okay?"

instead of agreeing, he just brings me in for another kiss, less soft and more powerful. i wrap my arms around his neck and sit myself on his lap while he runs a hand up my neck and into my hair. 

i pull away. "please just say okay."

"i've never been this happy, you know that?" he breathes out as our bodies rock back and forth.

my smile beams. "that works too."

he kisses me again, tracing his fingers along my collarbone as i search his arms with my palms. we both tug at each other's shirts, and i put my arms up so he can lift mine off first. he pulls his off on his own easily, and he stops kissing me to lean back and look at my body. 

"you are the prettiest girl i've ever seen," he says hungrily, almost immediately leaving a messy trail of kisses along my collarbone. 

i scratch my nails lightly across his bare back, too discombobulated to even respond. my thoughts are all jumbled in the high of being with weston. 

footsteps approach the door from the outside, and a loud knock essentially knocks us back into our senses. 

"hey weston do you know where savannah went?" kalynn asks. 

i jump up from the bed and grab my shirt, trying to figure out if it's inside out or not.  

"uhhhh, i think she went to.. take a walk outside?" his voice inflects uncertainly at the end, making it sound like a question. 

"idiot!" i whisper at him through gritted teeth, and his wide eyes glare at me. 

"um okay, well i was just wondering because-"

the door begins to open, and i fall to the floor behind the bed in hopes she won't see me. weston hops up and sprints over, shutting the door before it can open all the way. 

"what the hell?" she exclaims. 

"don't come in!"

"why?"

weston looks over at me for an answer, and i just shake my head rapidly. i have come up with too many excuses today, and i don't need another one to ruin my day. 

"i- um- just got out of the shower. i'm naked!"

i clasp a hand to my mouth to keep myself from laughing at the ridiculous situation we've gotten ourselves into. 

"ew!" i hear kalynn back up from the door. "tmi!"

"well would you rather me have let you in? exactly."

"fine!" she exclaims, and walks away muttering, "gross gross gross..." 

weston flops down on the bed and sighs a breath of relief. "close one."

"no shit," i say, pulling my shirt on over my head. "taking a walk outside? what?"

"i don't know! i was thinking that she knew you weren't in the house, so if you were taking a walk she wouldn't look for you," he explains. 

"oh," i state flatly. "yeah that actually makes sense."

we stand there for a little longer, catching our breaths. 

"well, i should probably go 'get back from my walk'," i say, and begin walking towards the door. 

"hey sav?" he blurts out, and i turn back towards him. "thank you."

"for what?"

"for being an amazing person," he sort of mumbles, but i hear it anyway. 

i roll my eyes with a smirk. "you're ridiculous."

he smiles and looks down at the floor, and i make my way back to me and kalynn's room. 

"hey, how was your walk?" she asks as she applies moisturizer. 

i shrug, trying play out my lie. "it was fine, i just wanted to look at all the other houses on our street. i feel like beach houses are always so cute."

"you're so right, beach houses are always prettier than normal houses," she agrees. 

well that was easy. 

"when do you wanna head down to the boardwalk, by the way?" kalynn asks curiously. 

"maybe like 6? we could eat dinner before and then go there," i suggest. 

she gives me a thumbs up. "sounds like a plan. i'll let weston know."

and just like that i realized my life couldn't be more perfect. 

a/n weird chapter i feel like idk anyway next chap will be cute. also writing this lowkey makes me sad LMAOOO
