Somehow, I ended up on Oliver's lap about midway through the movie. We are watching a movie called insidious and it was the worst idea imaginable; the smug look on the guys faces confirmed that they thought otherwise. Every time something happened in the movie I found myself clutching Oliver's shirt and/or hiding my face on his chest in totality. He was loving every moment of this nonsense.
"Finally, it's over!" huffs Alana still holding Levis shirt captive. I am no better to be honest. " I don't think I will be sleeping for the next month" she says dramatically. Sky nods in agreeance. Blair and Braxton went upstairs about twenty minutes or so ago when Blair fell asleep. I guess she didn't find the movie scary enough for her. That or she was just really tired.
"I didn't think the movie was that scary to be honest" yawns Peyton. He is lazily draped on his chair appearing to be in and out of sleep. "But it is probably because I have seen it a hand full of times" Oliver chuckles. "Yeah, that's because it's your go to movie for when you bring girls over." Peyton smirks and replies, "Hey, no shame in my game. Not all of us wanted to wait for our mate." he says nonchalantly. My mouth is gaping at this point. Why are they talking about this so openly? "Whatever, at least I know that I won't be giving my mate an STD when we finally do it." he says winking at me while I blush for the millionth time today. I start reaching for the popcorn. "It was only one time and you know I got that taken care of dude." Peyton defenses, "Plus, I'm sure my mate will understand. We are made for each other so what I do before I find her is null and void." he then directed his attention to Levi."Isn't that what happened with you and Alana?" Levi rolled his eyes and replied "Leave me out of this man. Let's go upstairs babe" he smirks, "don't worry, I'll be sure to take care of all the monsters hiding in the walls. You just have to stay as close to me as possible." Alana giggles as a response and wishes us goodnight. "Ima call it a night as well, I have a coffee date in the morning and it would be a disservice to her if I didn't get my beauty rest." He says dramatically while striking a pose. He really is a goofball. "What about school tomorrow" I scold but he just waves me off and wishes us goodnight with Sky mumbling something about not having protection from the ghost and running upstairs soon after leaving Oliver and I alone. I guess Oliver wasn't the only one with a bad attendance record before meeting his mate.
"What are you smiling about?," Oliver asks me caressing my cheek with his thumb. I didn't realize that I was smiling but tonight surprised me in more ways than one. His friends don't seem to mind that I am here and there might be a chance that we can all be friends one day. As for my mate, I like seeing his playful and relaxed side. It's much better than the distracted 'always invested in my phone' persona that he wears at school. "It's nothing. You ready to go to bed?" he nods. "Would you like to sleep in my room?" he asked. I look up curiously at him "so I can protect you from the monsters" He finishes with a determined look. I giggle. "No thank you but nice try" I say as we make It to my room.
"Um goodnight...Oliver. I will see you in the morning. I say shuffling my feet and looking at the ground. He puts his index finger under my chin igniting comforting tingles in the process. I was left gazing into his eyes. "Would you allow me to kiss you goodnight?" he says slightly leaning in. I can smell slight aroma of butter from the popcorn from earlier. I looked down at his lips and bit my own. I want to...
"Not yet" I sigh backing away slightly. He tries to smile but I can see disappointment in his eyes. I am disappointed as well. I am just not ready yet and I can't let our mate bond influence me in that way. Instead, Oliver takes my right hand and brings it up to his lips and softly kisses it. "For tonight, your hand can hold my kiss. These lips will patiently wait for yours. Goodnight Marina." he bows his head, winks at me, then walks next door to his room.
Slowly, I close the door leaning my back against the door holding the hand that he just kissed closer to my heart.
