Playing The Risk - Book One in The WSU Series

- Chapter Twenty-One -

"Your eyes are hazel."

"You've only just noticed?"

"I've always noticed."

Roma stretches his arm across my waist to pull me closer, "yours are brown." I nod, "just brown." He shakes his head, "chocolate brown." I let out a laugh, "chocolate brown?" He winks at me before moving closer to me, "I love chocolate." Roma Carter makes me so happy that it scares me. He's the type of boy who will break your heart, he doesn't know it yet but he owns a small part of it already— I just hope he feels the same way. Because of how I feel right now, lying in bed with Roma— these moments of just us make my day.

He makes my day worthwhile.

"Are you even allowed to eat chocolate?" I tease, "sometimes." I roll my eyes before trying to turn over but am stopped by Roma's arm, "what are you doing?"

"Cuddling."

"I like cuddling."

"I like you."

Roma Carter surprises me more every day. He is truly amazing. He's my boyfriend. My boyfriend.

"I like you too," I whisper so only he could hear despite it being just us in the room, "I'd be a bit worried if you didn't." He winks before moving his hand lower down my back. "So, what's happening with Hayden and Liv then?" I question hoping Hayden has revealed more to Roma than Liv has to me, but Roma shrugs, "I think she annoys him."

"I think he likes her," I correct, Roma, shakes his head slowly, "Hayden doesn't like anyone." Now it's my turn to shake my head, "nope, I think he likes Liv." He raises an eyebrow, "what'd you know that I don't?" I smirk at his question, "nothing." To be honest I truly knew nothing. Obviously, I know they've kissed but other than that Liv doesn't really say anything. I know she's close with Alex but I know that they're just friends, she's not into blondes. "Eleonora Gomez, are you keeping secrets from me?" He teases, "from you? Never." We stare into each other's eyes before he releases a sigh, "I'm keeping something from you though." My eyes go wide,

I hit his chest lightly, "shit, what'd you do?"

"I may have caught Kian with someone a couple of weeks ago." He explains, "guess who." I sigh at the guessing game he wants me to play, "God knows, Liv?" I guess as he laughs, "they have but I didn't catch them." To be honest, it doesn't surprise me that Liv has hooked up with Kian, she loves sex. Fair play to her. "I give up." He moves his hand to brush my tailbone, "Em." My jaw drops, "Emilia and Kian?" He nods, "on the couch."

Oh. My. God. Emilia and Kian.

I expected Liv and Kian. But Emilia and Kian.

Wow.

"Ele? You alright?" Roma questions with a smile, I shake the image out of my head, "surprised." Roma shrugs at my response, "Kian likes blondes."

"Don't you all."
