The Pirouette Series ~ A Star Crossed Wasteland

~Chapter 4~

Later on that night, I asked Travis if Kent could join us in my suite. He said it was fine. I was determined to get to the bottom of what was going on with Kent. When we got to the suite, I went into the bathroom to shower. They kept telling me I didn't stink, but I felt like I did. After a long hot shower, I got out and wrapped up in a towel. I walked out into the bedroom to the small closet and chest of drawers. I had unpacked most of my stuff because I knew we were going to be here for over a month.

Finding my flamingo boxers, I shimmied them on before pulling out the baby pink crop tank that went with it. Shoving it over my head causing the towel to fall off my head, I reached down to pick up the towel. When I did, I felt the warm body behind me.

"Can I help you," I asked.

"I was just checking on you," Travis said.

"I am fine," I said and wiggled my booty on him.

I then felt his big, warm hands grab my hips; "You best stop that, woman, or we gon have a problem."

I giggled at him; "Sure we will."

I stood up, turned around in his grasp and wrapped my arms around his neck. He smiled down at me.

"What," I asked him.

"No make-up and you're just as beautiful."

"Thank you," I said, got up on my toes to kiss him.

I felt his hands run around and run down over my booty. He squeezed it before pulling back from the kiss.

"You just wearing these cute boxers?"

"Yes I am. Why, is that a problem?"
"Oh, no ma'am," he said with a smirk. "You look mighty cute in these flamingo boxers."
"Thank you. Will you go get Kent for me?"

"Sure babe."

I went over and crawled onto the bed. Getting in the middle, I crossed my legs and waited on them to return. Moments later they walked into the bedroom. Looking up, I smiled at them both.

"Take off your shoes and join me on the bed, Kent."

"Oh, well, alright."

"Babe, will you sit in the chair for me?"
"Sure."

Kent kicked his shoes and socks off. He then crawled onto the bed and sat in front of me.

"What are we doing?"
"I am seeking an answer."

"What answer are you seeking?"
"Well, Luna's Abuela taught me some things while we were home. One thing she taught me is to never ask questions, only to see answers."

"Ah, I see. So, why are we seeking this particular answer?"
"Well, Kent Diimell, I don't know if you have noticed it, but I have. There is something happening here," I said and motioned between us.

He nodded his head at me but didn't say anything.

"So, this is me beginning to seek answers to find out what the hell is going on between us."

"I can handle us figuring this out. Is Travis okay with this?"

"I am," he said from the chair. "We've talked about it."

"Hands out, palms up, please sir," I said softly.

He did as I asked. I rubbed my hands together and then put them over his hands without placing them on his hands. The amount of warmth coming off of his hands was incredible.

"Close your eyes, Kent. Focus."

He closed his eyes. I left mine open.

"Focus on my voice," I whispered. "Do you feel that?"
"Is that coming from you or me?"
