Bigger Boys and Stolen Sweethearts

Part 11 - Home

Later on the day, we went to Alex's home. It was beautiful.
"Put yourself stuff up stairs, and the both of you get different rooms." He says while taking off his jacket and throwing it on the chair.
"We get our own room? Why do you have lots of rooms?" Abbey raises a brow. "Is it for your bitches?"
Alex laughed and shook his head, "No, because incase of people who want to stay over like family, friends, other musicians and such."
Abbey nods, "And bitches."
Alex smiles, "Yeah Abbey, bitches. In fact, I'm looking at one right now."
I couldn't help but let out a laugh. That was a nice burn, I turn towards Abbey and her face was so priceless, she and I didn't expect that at all.
"You win." Abbey smiles and walks upstairs.
I smiled and shake my head as I watched her. I felt arms wrapped around my waist, I turn around and see Alex examining my body, "And you little lady, if you want. You can sleep with me. Not intentionally sex, but as in cuddles."
The way he said cuddles made me giggle.
"Hmm, I don't know Alex." I shrugged.
He sighed as he stared at the ground. He then looked up at me, then smiled. "Come with me." He grabs me by the hand and took me upstairs. He lead me to a room which I was assuming his bedroom. It was so beautiful. I really adored how he kept his room clean. He walks over to the closet and opens a side, "This could be your side and this could be my side, and my bed is big enough for two."
I shook my head, "Why do you have such a big bed?"
"Because one day I dreamed of having someone like you being in it." He bites his lip. My cheeks burnt up. It was kinda quiet, until I decided to speak up.
"Yes."
"Yes what?"
"I'll stay with you in your room."
He honestly looked like he won a stuff bear at a fair. Abbey comes in the room, "So you're getting laid tonight for free, huh Turner?"
Alex and I blush, "N-no." He spoke.
Abbey scratches her head and shrugs, "Well I'm going to see my cousins, see you later ya'll." and with that she walked out.
"She had family here?" Alex asked.
"Yeah but they really aren't close because her parents never let them visit." I whispered.
He nods, "Poor girl."
"Mhmm."
It was quiet for a while. I wandered around the room, and examined the things he had.
"Want me to grab your bags?" He spoke up.
I turn towards to him, "Yes, please. Thank you."
He smiles and heads out the room. I look around and I realized that it was getting hot. I decided to take off my sweater, while I was taking off my sweater, I accidentally was pulling my shirt and sweater off the same time. I tried putting my arms down, but ended up being stuck. "Fuck." I mumbled. It was very stuffy and hard to breathe, I hear footsteps approaching and I realized it's late.
"Lily? What're you doing?"
"Oh shit, um. Can you please help me take my sweater off because I'm stuck."
I can hear him chuckle and hear him come closer, "What the hell were you doing?"
"I was getting hot so I wanted to take off my sweater and accidentally grabbed both my shirt and sweater and ended up being stuck."
"Alright, hold still." He says and he grabs the ends of the shirt and pulls them over which also brought up my shirt, revealing my bra. My eyes met his eyes. I felt my cheeks burn.
"Not like I've seen you in a bra before." He smiles.
I blush even more red, "Can we ignore that we met like that?"
"Hm, sure. How bout this. We met because I saw a damsel in distress fighting for her life to get away from a sick pig. And so intruded and saved her life and now I'm her knight and shinning armor?"
A little giggle came out of my mouth, "that sounds beautiful."
"You." He says as he steps closer, "are beautiful. And you have such a beautiful soul. People might look at you and think things. But they can't judge a spice book by its cover."
I giggled and raised a brow, "A spice book?"
"Yeah, cause you're spicy." He smiles.
That was so cute, I just wanted to kiss that face. But I feel like it's too early to start a relationship. I mean, I know what we said in the parking lot and it meant a lot to me, but it's just too soon. Maybe I should give it a few more months. But if I wait, would it be too late? I don't want to loose him. This has to be the hardest decision. I backed away and put my shirt on and reached for my bag and decided to unpack. He laid in bed spinning vinyls, I enjoyed them. Mostly spinning The Beatles. It felt so beautiful, it's like they're here in the room, but I know that isn't true because sadly we're not in the '60s nor is John or George still alive.
I finished hanging up my clothes and put the luggage underneath where the clothes hung and laid it on the floor. I then decided to change into high waisted shorts and a black laced spaghetti strap crop top. I closed the closet door and as I turned I saw Alex already staring at me.
"What?" I asked.
"Your body is like an hour glass, nicely shaped." He smiles.
"Did you watch me change?"
"I've watched you since you were putting your clothes away, didn't think you were so focused into putting them away or in fact, putting them on." he teased.
I stick my tongue out and laid in bed with him. I took a deep breathe and closed my eyes.
"Alex?"
"Yeah?"
"What does it feel like?"
"What does what feel like?"
"You know. Being able to do things without worrying?"
I felt him turn his body towards me, where he's laying on his side, I open my eyes and look at him.
"It's scary, and you're basically putting yourself at risk. But you know what? It's okay to take on risks because you never know where it might take you. Sometimes you do bad things where you regret them and you think, now I know what to do the next time that situation tries to happen again. You can't always worry about life because life will fly pass you and you won't even know it. Enjoy everything you have or had because you don't know what else might happen next."
He was right, I keep worrying what might happen and if I'm going to make mistakes. We all have flaws and we don't like that they're noticeable. When people point out our flaws then we feel more insecure about ourselves and then suddenly we end up hating ourselves. It's just life. And we're all a part of society.
"You're right. Thank you." I smiled.
"Anytime. But may I ask, why'd you ask?"
I sighed, "because I worry too much and I'm very insecure about myself, believe it or not."
He grabs my tiny hand in his huge hand. He did the typical, "Tarzan and Jane" moment. He smiled and looked at me, "You don't have to worry anymore. As long as you're with your knight in shiny armor, you're safe."
I pull him in for a hug, "Thank you so fucking much. You have no idea how grateful I am for this. Honestly, I never thought this would happen. I'm not going to take advantage or anything. That's the last thing I wanna ever do, and in fact if I do, then someone has to kill me."
He laughs and smiles at me, he cups his hand in my cheek and stares into my eyes with him chocolate brown eyes.
"Don't ever say that. I want you here, and I don't care if you do. You deserve this. From everything you've been through, you deserve to feel loved and at home."
Home.
I guess I actually did find home.
