Choices

22

The three of us are sat squished together on one of the grey sofas in Kylian Mbappe's massive, designer living room.

We are watching the film Elf because it was Christmas the other day and I shiver slightly next to Kylian. "Are you two cold?" He questions us and I nod my head.

Me and the French boy are incredibly close, I am sat cross-legged and my left leg overlapping onto his, but neither of us have pulled away. "Yeah, I am a bit," Sam shrugs from next to me. "But I think I am just going to go to bed, I am so tired, couldn't sleep last night, someone was snoring their face off." My younger brother sticks his tongue out at me and I send him a playful glare.

"Go on then. Night mate." I ruffle his hair as he stands up and exits the room. Kylian bidding him goodnight as the lad goes.

"Wait here, I will go and get my duvet to warm you up. Do you want me to make us some popcorn as well, I have buttered I think somewhere?" His hand goes to my knee and I am glad that it is dark to hide the growing blush on my face.

I hesitate for a second before answering. "Errr...alright why not?" I fold my arms across my chest and Kylian leaves to go and do the things.

I take this opportunity to stretch myself out and get more comfortable in the five minutes that he is gone for.

He comes back with a huge, black duvet wrapped around him and a bowl of popcorn. I can't help but smile as he shuffles over to the sofa looking adorable in the way that the blanket has been put around him. "Here you go, gorgeous." He puts the bowl down onto the glass coffee table whilst my stomach fills with butterflies at what he just called me.

"Thank you." I breathe as he lays the duvet over the two of us, the smell of Kylian filling me and my heart thumps in my chest.

He puts the bowl on my lap before squeezing next to me with his arm stretched out along the back of the sofa behind me.

There is a little while of silence as we watch the film until he finally speaks up. "Are you okay, Liv?"

I chew at my lip nodding my head as all of a sudden the familiar prick of tears threaten to appear.

My phone goes off and I pull it out of my hoody pocket. A message.

A message from a person who I never want to here from.

Kylian peers over my shoulder looking at my phone seeing the message that reads.

Some of your stuff is still here, come and collect it tomorrow or I will sell it all or get rid of it.

"What a twat." The boy next to me states shaking his head.

I huff to myself and turn my phone on silent chucking it away onto the carpeted floor. "Tell me about it." I rub my eyes and let out a long yawn.

"You are here now, I will take you tomorrow if you want?" His hand is back on my knee and I look into his dark brown eyes.

I shake my head. "Don't bother, I never want to see him again. Besides, the things are probably just my hairdryer and straighteners. Things that can be replaced." I shrug my shoulders and relax further into the sofa, my head hits his arm that is behind me and butterflies fill my stomach.

"Only if you are sure."

"Yeah." I let out another yawn and begin to feel ever so tired.

After a while Kylian begins yawning with me and we giggle as the two of us do it at the same time.

"I think that is a sign, come on I think it is time for bed." He pats my thigh sending electricity through my body at his touch and I place the now-empty bowl onto the coffee table before following after Kylian upstairs.

We get to the door of my room and he stands in front of me. The temptation to put my lips against his is so strong but I bite my lip resisting the urge.

I gaze into his eyes and he looks into mine with a small smile tugging at the corners of his mouth. "Goodnight, Liv, go get a good sleep you deserve it." He reaches out and tucks a strand of hair behind my ear.

My heart flutters and my emotions overwhelm me, unable to speak I just wrap my arms around his neck hugging him tightly. "Thank you so fucking much, Kylian, I appreciate it so much." I close my eyes as he chuckles against me clearly surprised at the sudden act of thanks. His arms snake around my waist pushing me against him more.

Finally I feel safe and a warm bubbly feeling erupts inside of me. "I wasn't going to let you stay in that stupid hotel when I have all this space here. Right, you do need to go to bed now though, so goodnight."

To my dismay the embrace comes to an end and as soon as we separate I find myself longing for his touch. "Okay, goodnight, Kylian." I swoop in kissing his cheek, not quite having enough courage to put my lips against his, and I blush heavily.

"Goodnight, gorgeous." He returns the sign of affection by pressing his plump lips against my forehead and I smile widely before heading off into my new room.

I jump onto the bed feeling like the happiest girl ever.
