Just friends?

Chapter 44

Charles is downstairs, playing a game of FIFA. 

"Hey, ehm when you're done, can I talk to you?"

"Of course, we can talk now too, I'll ask Lando to continue for me or something."

"Nah, you can finish this."

We walk to his room, as Sky is asleep in mine. "Where did you want to talk about?"

"I'm just really nervous for Tuesday, you know. What if she doesn't like it, what if she says no."

"Pierre, stop all the thinking. She likes you, and she cares about you, there is no reason why she would say no. And she is going to like the picnic, it's her favorite thing to do."

"Really?"

"Yes, don't be scared, Sky doesn't bite."

SKY POV, TIME SKIP, TUESDAY

"What about a dinner with all of us tonight?" Max walks into the room, where we play Monopoly.

Pierre stands up, and whispers something in Max's ear. Max nods, and Pierre walks back. "Tomorrow might be better for dinner."

"Okay, tomorrow it is then."

Pierre looks at me. "We have plans tonight."

"Plans?"

He gives me a reassuring smile. "Yep, you can finally take that beautiful dress out of your closet. Obviously only if you want to."

I leave all the boys behind down stairs, and walk to our room to change. I put on my dress and I immediately feel insecure again. Come on Sky, it's just Pierre and the boys, they don't bite.

I walk down again and when I enter the room Pierre's mouth falls open, but seconds after Charles pushes his jaw up, to close his mouth.

Max hugs me. "You look absolutely amazing, I like it."

"Is it not too much?"

Lando hugs me too. "No it's not, above all Pierre seems to like it."

I blush. "He better does."

Pierre's face is all red. He stands up and hugs me. "I like it, I'm going to change too and then we leave, okay?"

"Yep."

He comes back in shorts and a blouse, unbuttoned at the top, making me stare at him.

He takes my hand. "Ready to leave? Come follow me." He pulls me with him.

I look back over my shoulder, where I see Charles wink at me, and Lando mouths 'to where'.

I shrug my shoulders. 'I don't know.' I mouth back.

He laughs.

We drive to a little hill. Pierre steps out of the car first, and opens the door for me. "Do you feel comfortable with closing your eyes?"

"Uhm, yes."

"Okay, can you close your eyes for me then?"

I close my eyes, and Pierre lays his hands on top of them, also guiding me on where I should walk. He stops, and starts pinching my nose. "You can open your eyes."

I open them, and I see a blanket with all kinds of food. I wrap my arms around Pierre. "Did you do this?"

"Yes, but I got some help."

"Is this really for me?"

"Who else would it be for?"

I smile. "Thank you so much."

We sit down and eat a little bit before I lay my head on Pierre's shoulder and we both just stare in the distance.

After some time I feel Pierre getting a bit restless.
