Just a Soldier

Chapter 5 - Back where she belongs

Y/n's POV:

When we arrived back to Scarlett's, Lizzie instantly made her way into the guest bedroom to get changed ready for our relaxing afternoon by the pool. As Scarlett and I were making our way into the kitchen, I noticed her trying to stifle a yawn. I walked up behind her and wrapped my arms around her waist and placed a kiss against her cheek. "Angel, why don't you go and get dressed and chill by the pool. I can sort drinks and prep everything for dinner." I suggested, wanting her to relax after her active start to the day.

She turned in my hold and rested her hands on my shoulder shaking her head. "You're visiting me babe. You shouldn't be doing all of that." She argued, but again a yawn creeped up on her. "No arguments. Go. It won't take long to prepare the salad and potatoes. I'll be with you in no time!" I instructed firmly, giving her a kiss and slowly walking her in the direction of the stairs.

She huffed but made her way upstairs to change. I made my way back into the kitchen and grabbed everything out that I'd need. I decided on making a summer salad, Asian slaw, then some roasted and new potatoes. Knowing how the cast had been since they've been in Atlanta, I made extra expecting at least one of them to show up after they were done filming.

About 15 minutes later I was joined in the kitchen by Lizzie who was in a one-piece bathing suit with a white shirt as a cover up. "This is all looking great." She said, pinching a couple of bits of pepper that I had chopped up. "I've heard great things about your barbequing skills. I look forward to seeing them!" She complimented. "Well, it's not hard to impress when Scarlett burns anything in sight when she cooks on the grill." I joke and Lizzie laughs.

"HEY! I'm not that bad." Scarlett pouted, making her presence in the room known. "Sure babe. That's why we had to get the fire extinguisher out last time you cooked on it." I said leaning down to kiss her pout away. "That's a slight exaggeration." She moaned and I raised my eyebrow at her. "Ok maybe it isn't." She laughed and hid her face in my shoulder. "Don't worry, the rest of your cooking is amazing." I complimented and she gave me a cheesy grin.

Having finished the last of the chopping I moved to the fridge. "Can I get you guys a drink?" I asked and they looked at each other. "You should invite her more often. I like having a personal server." Lizzie teased. "It's the only reason I have her here. Only thing she's good for really" Scarlett joined in with a smirk. "That's not what you were saying last night." I mumbled and Lizzie burst out laughing. "Y/N!" Scarlett shouted at me with a shocked look on her face.

I shrugged my shoulders and threw a bit of cucumber in my mouth, smiling at how awkward Scarlett looked right now. "So, drinks?" I asked as if nothing had happened. "There's iced tea in the fridge." Scarlett muttered. I opened the fridge and pulled out the pitcher and poured it out into two glasses on the counter, scrunching my face up as I poured. "Oh, the Brit is offended!" Lizzie joked as she saw my reaction to the drink. "You guys just can't leave a good thing alone." I replied and she laughed, taking her glass and making her way out to the pool. "There's some cider in the fridge too." Scarlett said as she reached around me to grab her drink.

"Thanks Angel, I smiled and leant down to give her a kiss. "Seems I need to remind you why I'm here tonight." I whispered and I could see the goosebumps appear on her arms. "I could do with a recap." She replied with a smirk. She went on her tiptoes and placed a kiss just below my ear. She knew exactly what she was doing as she took a sip of her drinks whilst turning away. I watched as she walked outside, her hips swaying side to side, hypnotising me. Her ass looked incredible in the bikini and I'm sure she's put it on just to tease me.

"I can feel you staring at my ass." She called out and I laughed. "I'm not apologising! Have you seen your ass?!" I shouted back. She added extra sway as she carried on walking and turned her head to look at me over her shoulder. Fuck she's so sexy! I was still staring at the door she had walked through when she was long gone, her gorgeous body filling my mind.
