Mia and Charles had already decided that they were going to Mia's house after the party and Melissa and Kevin were just fine with this because they didn't give two shits about him, he had no idea why Kevin fought for custody over him. On their way down the street Mia swerved a bunch indicating that they had both had a lot to drink. Once Charles and Mia got inside and into Mia's room Charles was surprised to see so many video games, "You play video games? Just doesn't seem like you." Charles says surprised, Mia just laughed and sat on the bed in the corner of the room. Mia laughed a lot, Charles enjoyed that. He liked people who wasn't afraid of laughter. "So where are your folks tonight?" Charles asked to make conversation "Ohio, they're on a business trip." Mia explained. They sit there for a moment listening to the silence. "Well we can play video games if you want?" Mia had said to close the silence. They play some random racing game for about an hour and it was obvious that Charles was better at it after winning 8 of the 10 games they played and Mia was getting annoyed. Mia finally was done losing after three more games, "Okay, I'm done we should go to bed and wake up to the horrible hangover that both of us will probably have." Mia said a little annoyed and Charles looked triumphant and just sat there smiling and Mia couldn't help but get closer to him until almost on Charles's lap and kissing him and pushing him to lye down so that Mia was on top of him, Mia pulls away for a moment, "I just figured that you would have no problem in just sleeping in my bed." Mia said in between planting neck kisses on Charles, "damn straight." Charles said in between giggling and flipping Mia around so their positions were reversed and kissing down and unbuttoning Mia's shirt. After getting the shirt unbuttoned all of the way he kissed all down Mia's chest and stomach and paused only to allow his shirt to be pulled off and thrown to the floor. The next thing to go was Mia's pants and the jacket, that Charles has never seen Mia without, same with Charles's pants and shoes only for them to be left in their under clothes and soon getting rid of those as well. Hours past and both of them were then asleep and cuddling stark naked. Another hour passed before the sun started to rise and cast morning shadows on their faces. Charles wakes up first and noticed first the pounding headache he had and secondly that he was naked and spooning Mia and was enjoying every moment of it. Mia woke up a few minutes later turning and kissing Charles in the nape of his neck. "Morning," Mia said with a smile and a chuckle. Morning," Charles replied also smiling and pulling Mia even closer, each of them placing small kisses on their mouths and making small talk and just interrupting each other with more small fits of kissing. They keep on this cycle for an hour and a half until Charles's phone rings with the sound of the wicked witch of the west from The Wizard Of Oz signaling that it was Melissa calling. Groaning he reluctantly answered the phone.
"Hello?"
"Do you know how worried we were?"
"No. why were you worried?"
"Because you didn't tell us that you were not coming home last night."
"Yes I did tell you actually. If you will check the message on the white board and check yours and Kevin's texts from me you will see that I did, in fact, tell you."
There was dead silence from the other side until she spoke up again.
"I found it... come home please you need to put together your bookshelf's because I would really like those boxes back."
And the line be went dead. "Well I have to go home." Charles said a little sad. "We can hangout after you do stuff. Text me when we can see each other." Mia said with a slight smile as Charles got out of the bed and put on his pants and shirt only to get distracted multiple times by Mia pulling him down into kisses, and by the time that Charles did get fully dressed Mia had gotten enough energy to wrap a blanket and head downstairs with Charles. "So this might sound odd," Mia interjected before Charles left, "Are we dating?" Mia asked with real confusion Charles raised his eyebrows because he also didn't quite know, "If you want us to then yes because I would like it if we were dating." Charles said with a matter of fact tone. Then Mia smiled a big toothy grin, "Then yes we are dating, you are my boyfriend and you can't do anything about it." Charles just laughed while walking out the door and down the street to his dull house in the dull town which was starting to grow on him.
