Infatuation

Chapter Three

My eyes fluttered open wincing at the beaming sun that peeked through the curtain, it was cold this particular morning so I clutched my naked body shivering, dreading to get up and turn on the heat. Trying to fall back asleep I shut my eyes close one more time extending my arms above my head, I sigh comfortably "this is peace" I thought to myself before drifting back off to sleep.
Just as I was about to reach the peak of ultimate slumber I hear a small growl from beside me, I jolt upwards in bed looking to my right.
"Roman?" I gasp loudly, he jumps up clutching his head "Jesus girl it's 6:30 can we do this later."

All around the room, our clothes were scattered everywhere, furniture had been knocked over, drinks spilled out onto the carpets. I had the sudden urge to vomit knowing that Roman who I've only known for 24 hours now knows me better than anyone did in the last four years.
He stood up in a huff frustrated that I had just woken him up "I'm going to shower feel free to join when you calm down." Shaking his head he gathered up all the items of clothing and proceeded to shower.
I sat for a moment thinking to myself of what I shit show this is going to be, if word ever gets out that Roman and I slept together Phill is going to kill me.
"Thank god!" I thought rummaging through my suitcase, at least we had come back to my room. Quickly I pulled on some clothes and started to clean the mess from last night, soon after I heard the shower turn off and outcome the finest man walking the planet, my knees went weak at the sight of him.
"Here let me," he says taking the trash out of my hands, I smile softly at least he was sort of a gentleman. But as the memories flood back from last night he wasn't so gentle at all, that would explain the soreness in my legs.
"Sit let's talk," he said motioning for the small couch, I nod my head taking a seat next to him.
"Okay before you ask, yes we did have sex. But not because I'm a raging sexual bastard on a rampage since I'm newly divorced. No, I suggested that we just sit and talk mainly because we only met last night. You... well you had other plans, you went on and on about how you haven't been laid in four years and how frustrated you are. So who am I to turn down a beautiful woman, and you are so.. so beautiful."

I felt a small blush creep its way up to my cheeks "god that's so embarrassing" I cringe at myself, knowing that those exact words came out of my mouth.
"It's not, but shower and gets dressed I'm going to take you out for breakfast."
Roman kicked his feet up onto the small coffee table in front of us, while I sat there in disbelief, he looked at me funny "are you going to shower?" He asks.

"I'm sorry I just didn't know our one-night stand was turning into brunch and mimosas" I joked trying to find a way out of the awkward silence.
"Listen, this is a first for me too I haven't touched another woman in ten years. I've told you already that I'm not a pig, so yes if it's okay I'd like to take you out for breakfast."
I had to stop myself from smiling like an idiot, but none the less I got into the shower. A strange feeling rinsed over me as I was cleaning myself, I started to feel like I needed to look good for my breakfast date with Roman if you could even call it a date.
I dried myself off and styled my hair quickly before going back into the bedroom and pulling out a brown two-piece outfit with nude heels to match.
"You look great" he spoke softly from the doorframe of the room, I smiled again feeling myself grinning like a schoolgirl.

"Wow these are the best blueberry pancakes I've ever had" I gushed inhaling my breakfast, Roman smiled "yeah this is the best spot here in Florida" I almost choked realizing we are in his hometown of Pensacola.
"Listen I know we started backwards" I laughed indeed we did "backwards would be the correct word" I chime in.
"But I would like to get to know you, as friends before anything else."

I nodded my head at the idea friends were a step in the right direction, I just hope my brother doesn't completely flip when he finds out exactly who my "new best friend" is.
