Long Way Home

Chapter 38

February 2017 -past-

In the living room of the small apartment, Spencer laid on the couch, legs draped over Devin's lap as he gently ran his fingers up and down her exposed thigh. The two were official after he asked her to be his girlfriend the same place they got drinks together the first time. Though Devin hadn't even realized it until Spencer pointed it out.

Falling asleep to the movie that was playing on the TV, Spencer yawned quietly to herself before her boyfriend spoke up. "Babe, why don't you get in bed? I'll join once the love is over." He stopped running his fingers over her thigh.

"You really want to stay up and watch the movie?" She sighed, slowly pushing herself to sit up. "Instead of coming to bed with me?"

"I want to see the ending, it's interesting.." He chuckled, hooking his hand behind her neck and pulling her in for a quick kiss. "I will cuddle the fuck out of you when I come to bed."

"You sure?" She smiled, leaning forward and kissing him again.

"Did you have something else in mind?" He raised his eyebrows at her, a small smirk tugging at his lips. Quickly

She sighed defeatedly. "No, I'm too tired for anything that's running through your head. But maybe in the morning?"

"I'll hold you to that." He grabbed her ass as she stood up, causing her to gasp and swat his hand away. "I'll be in bed when it's over. Probably another hour."

"I'll be asleep." she playfully rolled her eyes. "But I can't wait to wake up next to you."

The blonde made her way to her room, closing the door behind her and practically falling into bed. She didn't even do anything but lounge around with her boyfriend all day, but she was exhausted. The boy had every intention of finishing the movie when he said that, but the front door opening and closing caught his attention instead after about ten minutes.

There she was. Throwing her purse onto the kitchen counter, kicking her much too high of heels off, then walking over to the couch. "Oh, Devin? I didn't expect you to be here. Where's Spence?"

"She just went to bed." he chuckled, looking the brunette up and down a few times as she sat beside him, tucking her legs under herself. "No hook up tonight? Spence said you've been on the hunt."

She sighed and shook her head, laying against the back of the couch. "No, no one really caught my attention tonight— or I guess I didn't really catch anyone's attention."

"I find that incredibly hard to believe," Devin shook his head, eyes still glued on the girl instead of the TV. "You look far too good for that to be true."

"You're such a kiss up." Natalia rolled her eyes with a small laugh, but looked over at him just as his gaze dropped to her bare legs beside him, their thighs just barely brushing. "It's a shame though..." She whispered, wetting her lips as his eyes slowly trailed back up her body to her face. "I was so looking forward to getting fucked tonight."

"Oh, were you?" The two stared at each other for a moment, silently waiting, hoping that the other would make a move first. Neither wanted to be the one to initiate the betrayal if the blonde in the next room over, but they both wanted each other so bad.

It wasn't often the two saw each other before that point, just a mere few minutes when he'd pick Spencer up for a date or be bringing her home. But every time they even glanced at each other, they both felt the tension grow immensely. It had to be broken eventually.

The brunette brought her hand to her thigh, toying with the hem of her dress before hooking her finger into it, and pulling it up a few inches. She let her gaze drop to look at it, just before the boys did, almost inviting him to do it himself as she started drawing random shapes on her bare skin. "Look... I know I said it was a one time thing."
