Tough Luck

Vanessa and I had been.. whatever we are, for almost two weeks now. We see each other almost everyday and it honestly feels good.

It feels good to be around her. To hear her laugh. To be the one making her laugh.

Training had just finished and Colt and I were walking over to the bleachers where Vanessa and Flo sat.

Flo was going through the photos she'd just taken of us practicing on her camera, "oh what about this one?"

I watch as she tilts the camera so Nessa can see. Nessas gives it an approving nod and bites her lip. My features turn into a frown and hurry the last couple of steps to them.

"You can't be looking at other guys and boring your lip!" I say as I snatch away the camera.

Nessa jumps up and tries to grab it from me. A blush had taken over her face and her eyes were wide.

She was getting flustered over other guys?

"Give it back." She reaches for it and I hold it out of her reach. "I wasn't looking at other guys. Now give it back."

She wasn't? I hold the camera at an angle we're I can see the photo on display but she still can't reach it.

Colt lets out a chuckle as he sees the photo and I smirk down at Nessa. She has a sheepish smile of her own on her face.

The photo is of me. My shirt was off and I was using it to wipe my brow. It was a good photo.

Nessa shrugs, "what? It's a good photo. You look.. good."

"I look 'good'? I'm sure you can come up with a better adjective babe." I say raising a brow in challenge.

She pretends to think for a second, "hm, maybe sweaty?"

"Ha. Ha." I say before using the hand that's not holding Flo's camera to pull he to me and plant a kiss on her mouth.

She kisses me back before pulling away, "cute. but you stink."

"I don't." I say mock offended.

"Not to interrupt this weird foreplay or whatever, but can I have my camera back now?"

I pass Flo the camera before grabbing Nessas hand and tugging her closer to me, "you what to come over and watch a movie tonight?"

"Don't I always?" She kisses me on the cheek and then adds, "I've got to get to glass but bring the snacks."

She takes a step away before I call out, "your not going to give me a proper goodbye?"

She rolls her eyes before walking the few steps back to me and kissing me on the lips.

"Have a good day, Pretty girl." Tap her ass as she walks away again.

We'd started a tradition. A tradition that we do most nights. She comes over to mine or I go to hers we bring snacks and we watch a movie. Sometimes we watch the whole thing sometimes we just make out the whole time.

We've fooled around a bit but I can tell Vanessa is hesitant to go the all the way. I know shes not a virgin so that's not the issue and I don't care what it is. I'll respect her and wait as long as she wants.

Watching the movies started the day she had the fitting for her sisters wedding. I'd slung by hers after class and she just looked so.. sad. She didn't cry but something was wrong I could just tell. She told me she was fine but I knew something was up.

I didn't pressure her to tell me but I know it had something to with her family. So instead of talking about what had her so quiet and upset we'd watched a movie.
