If You Wanna Be Loved

9. Tension

We made our way back to the limo that was waiting for us outside and we all stumbled in. The drive back wasn't far and we dropped Corey and Devyn off first, then Brennan, and the limo driver asked where else he needed to go. He seemed very tired. The poor guy waited for us for like 4 hours.
"I'll stay with Sam so it's one less stop"
Kat said.
My place was probably the farthest away.
"Kara do you want to crash at my place so this guy can just drop us all of and go home?" Colby asked.

He was staring at me questioningly, but there was also a twinkle in his eye. "Yeah I don't mind" I said quickly with a shrug. I didn't dare look over at Sam or Kat. I don't know if they'd think anything of it but I didn't want to find out what their facial expressions looked like.

We all gave the driver a hefty tip and sent him on his way. And all of stumbled drunkenly into the apartment building. We were all laughing as we tried to make it to the rooms, Kat and I tripping over our heels and the boys playfully pushing each other down the halls.

Once we reached Sam's room me and Kat gave each other a hug, and me and Colby said goodnight as they went into the apartment and I followed Colby to his. He fumbled to unlock the door and we stumbled inside, my eyes getting thrown off by how dark it was.

I backed up and accidentally pushed into Colby. "Sorry I can't see" I said with a giggle. I heard him feeling around for the light switch until the light quickly flashed on, and he looked over at me with a smile. "We have light!" He yelled, and I shushed him. "Dude you have neighbors" I said as I set my purse down on the counter.

I looked down at my outfit, realizing that I smelled like alcohol, sweat.

"Hey would you mind if I took a shower quick? I smell like snoop dog and motley crew threw up on me."

Colby laughed quite hard at my statement. "Yeah I don't care. Do you need something to wear too?"

The thought of getting to sleep in Colby's clothes made me feel all fuzzy inside.

"Yeah if you wouldn't mind..."

He smiled. "I don't, come to my room I'll let you pick something out."

I followed him to his room, which I've never seen by the way. It was a decent size, with a queen sized bed with black sheets. He opened up his closet and turned to me. "Just pick out what you want to wear, I'll go get you some towels and lay them in the bathroom for you." With that he left his room, leaving me to choose whatever I wanted from his closet.

I felt weird looking through it... pretty much the only colors he had for shirts were black, blue, red or white. Sounds about like mine. I pushed through everything and found an oversized black jumper with Sam and Colby's X logo on it. Perfect. I had a fresh pair of underwear in my purse that I keep for emergencies, so I was going to just wear those underneath. I made my way to the bathroom to see two Towels laid out on the sink, and I shut the door and got undressed.

The hot water felt so nice on my skin, I could have stood there all night. I tried to be quick though and I ended up only taking about 5 minutes. After drying off I threw on the hoodie, instantly being hit by Colby's smell, and I smiled to myself. I slipped on my underwear, took my hair out of the towel and let it lay messily onto my back.

Checking myself out in the mirror, I thought I looked decently cute, despite the fact that I didn't have any makeup on. I draped the towels over the hooks he had on the back of the door and left the bathroom. I peeked in his room to see him laying on his bed looking at his phone. He had taken his shoes and his jacket off. He looked so cute...

When he heard me he looked up and his smile faded as he looked down my body then back up. "That uh, fits you well" he said softly. His voice gave chills up my spine. I smiled and blushed as I leaned against the doorframe. He sat up off the bed and stuck his hands in his pockets.
