Virgin Lips
Meltem's POV
Arderas parks his car in front of my house and looks over at me, expressionless. I looked ahead and unbuckled myself right away. He stops me just as I was about to leave by placing his hand on mine.
He told me, "Meltem, don't tell your brother about this."
I sighed loudly and closed my eyes. Why do people think I'm naive and stupid just because I have an older brother?
I turn my head to look at him. "Arderas, I'm not stupid. Do you believe I'm dumb enough to tell my brother about this? He'll never let me leave the house again." I said honestly, my stern gaze fixed on him.
He nods to himself, one hand on the steering wheel. "Okay, I'm just looking out for you," he said, sighing and turning away from me.
"Don't. You have Lia to do that "I said to him, turning around and getting out of his car before slamming the door shut. I walk around the front of the car, seeing Arderas get out and walk towards me, blocking my path. "Move, Arderas," I said, avoiding eye contact with him. I take a slow look at him, noticing his eyes glistened at me.
"No, we're going to discuss it. What exactly do I need to keep an eye out for? Tell me, I'm listening "He argued back, taking a step closer to me.
I swallowed hard, feeling tiny in comparison to him. He comes to a standstill when he gets close enough.
"Nothing," I said softly as I walked past him, but he grabs my arm and yanks me back in front of him.
He grips my arm tightly and leans in close to my face. "Tell me," he said, expecting me to say something.
I licked my lips and looked him in the eyes. I look deeply into his eyes as he looks into mine. "Go home or to your girlfriends," I say flatly, watching his face fall.
I walk past him and over to my front door. I take out my house keys and insert them into the keyhole. Arderas' footsteps were heard behind me.
"I have to stay over tonight," he explained.
" What?" I responded quickly, causing my heart to race and my keys to fall to the ground.
I turned around when I noticed he had approached, and we both knelt. I reach for the keys, and he does as well, causing him to lightly touch my hand. I let out a quiet gasp and turned to face him, realising he was already staring at me. He looks into my eyes, then down to my lips, making my cheeks flush.
"I got it," I said, grabbing the key and slowly rising to my feet. I inserted the key into the keyhole and swung open the door. We both entered, and I hurried to the living room, knowing Caden would be there. Caden is sound asleep on the couch, completely wasted.
"I guess I'll sleep on the couch too," Arderas said, crossing his arms.
"No, don't be a silly. You are welcome to stay in my brother's room "I offered it to him, and he looked surprised.
"Are you certain?" He questioned, and I responded with a warm smile.
"I'm positive," I said. I started walking up the stairs, and Arderas was right behind me. Caden's room just so happens to be across from mine. I stopped in front of my room, nervously staring at Arderas, who was staring at me from Caden's room.
"All right, goodnight," I said quickly as I entered my bedroom, closing the door behind me without looking or hearing what Arderas had to say.
I lean against the door, my heart pounding loudly. I closed my eyes and tried to relax. I walked over to my bed and began removing my skirt and top, leaving only my bra and panties. I was about to take off my bra when I heard my bedroom door open and stumbled to a stop. I turn around to see Arderas staring at me from behind the door. His gaze slowly trails down to my body, his eyes darkening slightly. I opened my eyes wide and felt my soul leave my body.
"Oh my god, get out!" I screamed and covered my body with the clothes I had removed.
He quickly closes the door, and I quickly put on my cartoon-printed pyjamas. I stepped out of my bedroom door, noticing Arderas was still out in the hallway. He shook his head and looked over at me, admiring my outfit.
"Arderas, what the hell? Have you ever heard of knocking?"I told him.
"I'm sorry, I'm a little tipsy," he apologised. I sighed softly, nodding my head. "Nice pyjamas," he said, staring at my clothes.
I looked down and smiled before slowly returning my gaze to him. " Thanks"
" I was wondering if there was anything to wear to bed?" He asked. I raised my brows slightly and thought for a moment.
I said, "Just take whatever Caden has," and he smirked awkwardly.
"I need help, please," he said, causing me to sigh irritably.
I walked past him into my brother's room. I walk over to his closet and open it as I go through Caden's clothes.
"This is what you had to do, Arderas, literally easy," I complained. I raise my toes to see what clothes I should get for him. When I felt him standing behind me, I abruptly stopped looking.
I slowly lowered my toes and took a deep breath. I gradually turn around, widening my eyes when I notice he's standing right behind me. We were now facing each other, and he smiled as he analyzed me. I take a step back, losing my balance and about to fall backwards when he grabs my arm and pulls me back to him. I softly exhale, staring into his hazel brown eyes. Our faces were so close that I could feel his breath tickle my cheek.
"And what about Lia?" He asked abruptly, returning to the earlier topic.
" W-What?.." I shattered my words, and I suddenly forgot what he had just asked me. My mind went blank, as if a fart had gone off in my head and all my thoughts had vanished.
"I'm not with Lia," he said, and I looked back into his eyes, trying not to smile.
Is he not with her?
Wait, why would Arderas lie to Caden while they were driving to the party?
"Okay, I don't care?" I lied to him in order to appear calm. But I care, and this was the most wonderful thing I've ever heard. My stomach was churning with butterflies. I furrow my brows, wanting to ask him a question. "Why did you lie to my brother and tell him you were with Lia?" I asked him, and he smirked at my questioning.
"Because he thinks I'm interested in you," he explained. My eyes widen as I sense my heart about to explore.
This is too much for me to handle in a single night.
" Oh, um. It's getting late, so goodnight "I said, wanting to get out of this very steamy room as my cheeks heated up.
I dashed to the bedroom door, and he followed. I opened the door, and he quickly closed it from behind. I widened my eyes and took a deep breath. He spins me around and slams my body against the door.
" I thought you didn't care?" He said this in a raspy low voice, referring to when I told him I didn't care. My cheeks become a darker shade of red.
Arderas grins even wider, his gaze darting around my features. He slowly placed his hand on the door behind me and lean against my body.
"I don't," I said, turning around to leave when he placed his other hand on the door. I'm caught in the middle. I gulped nervously and turned around slowly to face him. "I...I don't," I said, trying to persuade him.
He lowers one hand down and pulls me in closer. To balance myself, I place my hands on his chest.
"You don't, huh?" He said quietly, staring down at me. My heart sank as he stared longingly at me.
" I care."He stated this.I frown slightly, not sure what he meant.
He leans in, pressing his lips against mine. As he kissed me, I widened my eyes and screamed inside. He put his hand behind my back, drawing me closer to him so he could kiss me more deeply. I closed my eyes, gripped his shirt, and kissed him back. His other hand slides down my body and under my pajamas, gripping my ass. I moaned softly as I feel his lips smirk against mine.
