To Catch A Star

Chapter Twenty-Two

A couple of weeks later, everything came to a head. The night started off how it usually did, they worked out after dinner and then Colby hit the showers. Andi went in afterward, taking her usual wrestling tee and shorts with her while Colby sorted the tangled mess that was his hair before laying back and playing on his phone. Andi came back out and was towel drying her hair as she asked Colby for the hairbrush. He glances up at her as she got in the ring and walked over, only to do a double take and forget what she asked. He watches her drying her hair whilst wearing HIS t-shirt. HIS!

She asks for the brush again, not noticing his staring and he tosses it to her before flopping onto his back, quietly muttering about her trying to kill him. She doesn't hear or notice his turmoil and she carries on getting ready for bed. Once finished, she flops onto her back and looks at the glass ceiling, chatting away about the days classes among other things.

It takes a few minutes, but Andi finally becomes aware that Colby is completely distracted. He's staring at her instead of looking out at the stars and clouds like usual... Colby is having an inner war. He is noticing the way she wets her lips as she talks , the slight upturn of her lips when she finds something funny, the way her leg is pressed up against his and how soft her skin feels. The way her tee is rising further up her stomach with each move she makes, how her nipples are straining through it and how her fingers are playing with his...

"Colby? What's wrong? Are you ok?"

"I can't do this anymore!"

Andi is confused,

"What's happened, Colby?"

"How can I ignore what you're wearing? You're making this so hard! Are you doing this on purpose?"

This was what Colby was trying to say but the words muddled together and came out completely incoherent. So Colby makes the decision to take action instead, quickly turning into his side, one hand still clasped in hers as the other goes to hold her jaw, and dips down to kiss her.

Andi is shocked still for a moment before her senses come back and she quickly puts some distance between them.

"Colby, stop. We've talked about this, we're just friends. You're just confused, you don't want me..."

Colby takes a deep breath before closing the gap between them, pressing his forehead to hers and closing his eyes.

"Please? I want you; I need this. Please just let me, I need to know..."

Andi is still thoroughly confused and tried to think about what he's saying but her brain won't function when he's this close. She feels herself give in, relaxing into him and letting out a soft sigh. Their noses softly rub together, and Colby tries again,

"Please may I kiss you?"

Her eyes flutter closed and she nods slowly as he puts his hand on her cheek, fingers softly brushing over her cheekbone. He places gentle, light pressure to her lips. Her lips are pliant under his and they both let out a sigh. Both then place slightly more pressure of lips, one of her hands moving to his neck and the other threading through his hair. The tips of their tongues meet...

They break apart, making eye contact, breathing heavily before coming together again with more pressure, their tongues caressing. He shifts to hover slightly above her, a knee coming between her thighs and they both moan. He moves to kiss along her jaw line as she pants, kisses down her neck before returning to her lips.

His hands wander up the outsides of her arms before smoothing down the sides of her breasts as her hands move down to his shoulders before her nails scape down his back causing him to hiss into the kiss. He moves again to settle both of his legs between her own and she responds by running her calf up the outside of his leg.
