Chapter 6 ~ gathering

'Hey !' Exclaimed Lily, arriving with Alex by her side.

'Hi guys, glad you could come.' Pierre greeted each person who arrived. Soon everyone was here.

All except one.

'Charles !' Yelled Pierre so the whole boat could hear. He gave him a big hug and let him in. We all sat down somewhere on the boat.

I sat by Heidi and we just began talking about the boys, work and other stuff. I was laughing before being interrupted.

'Hey Y/n.' Said Charles standing by my legs.

'Hey Charles.' I replied.

'Sorry for not coming to see you when you came in.' I added, I stood up, I was now very close to him.

Pierre watched me as I made contact with his best friend. But he had no clue that Charles was my old best friend too.

I hugged Charles tightly.

I felt his hands wrap around my back. Just as he did that I became calmer than before. My head rested on his shoulder. We stood there for seconds, just enjoying each others company without saying a thing.

'Alright.' Pierre's voice echoed around the boat. The tension was high.

'Let's get moving !' Laughed Lissie.

I pulled away from his body. We where still silent, his shirt had crinkled where I had put my face. My hands lay on both of his shoulders.

I brushed his shirt down. Pierre's eyes digging a hole in the back of my head.

. . .

We soon anchored the boat in open water as we had earlier that day. The sun began to set. It was perfect. We all laughed and talked with each other.

I was standing and talking to Luisa and Isa who were sat on the sofa as I told them a funny story. We all had beers in our hands, just as everyone else had.

Charles was staring at me. That must have been what attracted Pierre towards me.

'And I didn't even see...' I began.

I felt hands wrapping around my waist. Arms around my hips, head on my shoulder and body against my back.

'Hey Mon Chèri.' I heard his voice whisper in my ear.

His shoulder was behind my neck, close to my body.

I tilted my head back. Laying my head on his shoulder from in front of where he stood.

He kissed my cheek twice.

He then began to trail down to my neck.

At this point Luisa had turned around to face Isa, she knew what Pierre was doing and how it would end.

I moved my hand up to his hair. My fingers now combing his dirty blonde strands.
I turned around to face him. Our bodies still pushed up against each other.

'We can't do this right now.' I quietly told him, fiddling around with his hair around his face.

'When can we then ?' He whispered back, pulling me towards him more as he spoke.

'Soon... I promise.' I kissed his cheek nicely before turning my back to him to go and speak to Carlos.

His hand still held onto mine. He gripped it tighter and pulled me back into him.

'Can I have one kiss now ?' I didn't understand what had gotten into him. He wasn't like this earlier.

I didn't even reply, I just pulled his face closer to mine and kissed him passionately. The timing was perfect and we both moved at each others speed.
