His Little Amelia

|88| • Amelia

"Hey! No fair, I don't even know how to play this!" I squealed, watching my character get beat up by Liu Kang who being controlled by a grinning Evie. I tried to back away but he gave me a triple kick, sending me flying. "You don't hit a lady!" I squealed at him, not looking away from the screen. I heard Evie laugh.

"Alright, I'll let you land just one hit." He teased, his character backing away and doing nothing but swaying side to side with an alert posture. Glancing at him, I saw that he was looking right at me. "Just because it's your birthday." He whispered, winking.

Huffing in annoyance, I checked my characters health, it was almost red! Nibbling on my lips, I ran towards him, trying to do the special move but before I could finish it, he dodged the rest with ease, slamming my character to the ground and finishing her off in seconds. "Ugh!" I hugged, dropping my head on the couch.

"I said one hit." Evie said, shrugging. I could sense his triumphant grin from a mile away. "Meh, meh, meh." I mocked sassily, warning a laugh from him. Everest moved closer, pulling me in by my waist.

"What? You said not to go easy on you."

"Yeah, not literally dominate the game." I hissed back.

"Someone hates losing." He teased, kissing my cheeks. "If it makes you feel better, I gave it my all." Evie mused, smirking. I eyes him suspiciously. Gave it his all? He looked so relaxed while smashing my character's every bone!

Then again, I was glad he didn't go easy on me. That meant the one round I won was actually earned.

Throughout the day, we'd been playing different games, talking and laughing a lot. Evie had the idea to compete playing Mortal combat on the play station he got from his family house. I'd tried it out a few times and honestly thought I stood a fair chance again at him.

Well, I thought wrong.

When he got competitive, not even my cute pouts could stop him. He'd grin and still kill my character! Smiling to myself, hugging my knees.

"This is fun." I admit, grinning at me. He leaned in, touching foreheads. "Oh yeah? You know what's even more fun?" I arched my eyebrows at his question. Intrigued, I asked what and he mirrored a grin of his own.

"The beach. What do you say? I was thinking we have fun on the beach tonight."

"Really?" The idea made my ears tingle, I hadn't gone to the beach in a while! Not to talk of going there with Evie. "Was that why you wanted me to buy swim wears?" I asked, smirking at him. So he'd planned this all along? My heart swelled in adoration for this man. I was absolutely content with spending the day indoors with him but of course he doesn't even more to melt my already liquid heart. Gosh, was this man real? I almost cried thinking of him.

"Yes really. It's already getting dark, so how about we get ready?"

Looking out the window, I realised that the sun was already setting. The nearest beach was about an hour away. Taking a hold of his hand, I got up as well. "Thank you." I say, stealing a hug from him. "You've been saying that a lot, you're welcome my love."

"You've been giving me a lot of reasons to say it." I defended, pouting. He chuckled, kissing my cheeks. "I'm glad to hear that."

"See you in thirty?" He asked.

"I'll try my best." I say, I wanted to look good, it was my day after all. He turned to go and I tapped his butt. Evie gasped dramatically. "Pervert." He seethed, entering his room. Giggling at his theatrics, I skipped to mine as well.

We were going to the beach, I was beyond excited about that. When was the last time I'd gone to the beach?! Humming to myself, I searched through the bikini's Evie had bought for me, picking out my favourite. "Okay, I'll just wear this as a cover up." I chose a loose dress which flailed to my thighs and had a deep V-cut which still covered my chest.
