Deer In Headlights [Minizerk]

Chapter 20

Ethan came over the next day as arranged. He always just let himself in when he came round as my parents told him to do.

It was about 12 he came in and knocked on my door. Josh was still asleep. I learned he was a very heavy sleeper with a poor sleep schedule.

"Hey Si" he smiled, coming in and sitting on my gaming chair.

"Hey, you okay?" I asked.

"Yeah, enough of that though, yesterday?" He grinned "You stopped replying, I gathered what had happened"

"He did the leave the door unlocked" I grinned.

"Tell me tell me" he said with widened eyes.

"It was really good" I admitted.

"Oh my god you guys went the whole way?" He grinned and I nodded "How kinky?"

"Nothing specific... It was more the things he said, oh though he did pin my hands above my head. Turns out I'm not as vanilla as I thought, I'm almost certain he's not at all" I laughed.

"So what happened after?" He asked.

"Well he said about aftercare, turns out that's a thing you're meant to have - never learned that until now. But he basically just laid in bed with me and was really sweet and affectionate" I told him.

"Have you guys had a talk about what this means for you both yet?" He asked.

"Yeah, we're both in agreement that we want a relationship, but nothing official yet because we're still getting to know each other. Though I'm fairly certain we're acting like a couple regardless" I said.

"Aww that's great, I'm so happy for you guys. It was obvious that there was something there, it was just hard to tell what his intentions were" he said.

"Yeah I know, that was the part I couldn't figure out until we actually spoke out loud about it. I'm glad we did" I smiled.

"I can't believe this all happened within just one day of you guys living together, he's obviously been wanting to make a move for a while" he said.

"Well he had loads of other opportunities" I laughed.

"But you're very shy, he was probably scared about coming on too strong. And that you wouldn't actually want him to make a move, so I think he tried to leave you opportunities to make the moves yourself - which you did thanks to my great advice" he grinned.

"Great advice..?" I snickered.

"Simon I got you laid, it was great advice" he laughed.

"Okay that's valid"

"So are you guys gonna just be normal friends with each other whilst acknowledging your feelings? Or can you be romantic?" He asked.

"Right now I think the romantic side is okay, but we're not telling anyone we're a couple until we feel like it's the right time for us both and we know each other really well. Because obviously we bonded over everything that's happened, not over a course of time as friends" I explained.

"Sooo..?" He grinned.

"Yes Ethan, there may be more tea to spill. I'll keep you updated if we do anything else" I laughed, rolling my eyes.

"You know me well" he laughed "But seriously, I'm happy for you two. You're good for each other"

"Honestly he makes me so so happy when we're together" I smiled.

"I know, I can see it. You've been glowing since you met him" he nodded.

"I mean... Obviously I'm not in love with him, it's too soon, but he's someone I could see myself loving for sure" I told him.

"And I'm sure it's the same for him" he said.

"He is really gentle and sweet with me, so I'll take it as a sign he sees a future for us" I said.

"What does he do?" He smiled.

"He just sat there stroking my hair and kissing my forehead last night" I beamed to myself at the memory.

"Oh he adores you" he nodded.
