You Only Live Once

Chapter Six

Jamie wrapped her head in a towel after she was dressed in her clothes, then stepped out into Sebastian's room to see him buttoning a pair of jeans he'd just put on. He was facing away from her, giving her a few moments to stand there and ogle him before she cleared her throat softly. "Do you have a hairdryer I can borrow?" She asked softly.

Seb turned to face her, his eyes flicking across her for a second or two, quickly taking in her form as her clothes clung to her. "Umm, y-yea. I think Chris leaves one under the sink."

She smiled at him and unwound her hair to squeeze more water from it. "I have more clothes on now than when we were in the pool," she pointed out playfully, but she shamelessly gazed over his bare chest.

"I know." He replied easily, "and you look just as beautiful now, as you did then." He walked over and gave her a quick kiss on the lips before stepping away from her again, making his way to the door. "Just come on out to the living room when you're ready."

Smooth. Jamie watched as Seb left the room with a shirt in his hand before she returned to the bathroom and quickly dried her hair and pulled it back with a tie.

When Jamie walked into the living room, she could hear popping sounds coming from the kitchen. She sat beside Sebastian and leaned against his side. "Pizza and popcorn?"

Sebastian nodded his head, draping his arm loosely around her shoulder.

"Yep!" Chis exclaimed as he entered the room with a bowl in each hand, "Pizza should be here soon. Did either of you want something to drink? Beer? Soda? Water? I think I have some fruity stuff like wine coolers and Mike's lemonade too."

Jamie shrugged. "I'm not driving, I'll have a beer," she answered as she curled up against Sebastian's side.

"You got it," Chris smiled, setting the bowls down on the coffee table before making his way back to the kitchen. Before long, Chris emerged with three bottles in his hands. He handed one to Jamie, and one to Seb, before taking a seat in one of the chairs.

"What're we watching?" Jamie asked, then took a sip of her beer. "As long as it's not a slasher movie, I'll be fine. I do not do those. At all."

"Chris and I were thinking we could throw on something simple, like Pirates of the Caribbean," Seb said, "Unless you would prefer something else? Lady's choice," he said with a wink.

"Pirates is perfect. I love Johnny Depp, he's one of my favorites." Jamie felt heat in her cheeks due to Seb's flirting, but she nudged him in response.

Chis and Sebastian both feigned a gasp of offense. "That hurts, Jamie," Sebastian said between laughs.

"What?" Jamie questioned. "I can have multiple favorites. I kind of have a list," she admitted.

"Of course, you do," Sebastian smirked at her, "But I'm at the top of that list, right?" he joked, as Chris queued up the movie for them to watch.

Jamie bit her bottom lip and made sure Chris couldn't see before she rested her hand on Seb's thigh to tease him. "What do you think?"

The corner of Seb's mouth raised as his eyes flickered over hers for a brief moment before they dropped back to where her hand lay. "I'm pretty sure I'm at the top." He leaned down, brushing his lips against her ear as he whispered in a low growl, "But you don't exactly play fair."

"Who said anything about playing fair?" Jamie answered back quietly while she gently squeezed his thigh as she watched the tv screen. She could feel goosebumps rise on her arms at his tone of voice, but did her best to ignore it.

This girl was going to be trouble, he could tell, but Sebastian was up for the challenge.
