Only Because I Love You

Requested by @superherotype

 I'm so sorry I took so long but I finally feel inspired to write omg. You didn't specify the setting so I hope you don't mind how I wrote this.

"Could you do one when you're being shy in front of her and she's teasing you a bit but in a cute way?"

I sigh as I stretch out on the couch, throwing the TV remote to the side. Nothing interesting on TV when it's this late, as usual. It's been a busy week at work and its finally Friday night. I had been hoping to have a nice relaxing night in but there's nothing to do.It's too late to make any arrangements or even go rent a movie. I groan as I lean forward and rest my head in my hands. I begin to massage my temples when I hear a light knock at my door. Confused, I look at the time to see it's 11:20. Who would be here this late?I wonder maybe its that sweet old lady from next door? Did I have the volume too loud?

I slowly unlock the door and open it just enough to see who's standing there. To my surprise it's my friend Scarlett. I stare at her with wide eyes, neither of us saying anything, she just looks back at me. I've always had a bit of a crush on her to be honest and having her here this late allows for my mind to wander to inappropriate places. I bite my lip as I take in her appearance; she's wearing a loose sweater and denim shorts that compliment her long legs.

"Scarlett?"I whisper.

"Can I come in?" she asks, lifting an eyebrow slightly.

"Oh,yeah...of course"

I quickly step aside to let her in and shut the door behind her. She walks directly to my fridge,grabs a soda and plops down on the sofa. I slowly walk towards her and lean back against the corner of the room. I watch her for a while as she sits with her feet up, taking sips of her drink.

"So...what's going on?"

"I can't sleep" She sighs "I don't really know why I came here...I guess I knew you'd still have my favourite soda here" She chuckles softly.

I can't help blushing, I don't really mean to always have a supply here. I just like to have it on hand for her when she comes around. I can't even say that it's because I like it too, I really dislike the taste of it. We stay silent for another minute until she pats the seat next to her while finishing her drink. I bite my lip and walk over, sitting down so that there's almost too much space between us.

"I didn't wake you did I?" She asks, changing her position to face me.

"No,I was just trying to find something to watch on TV but there's nothing good on" I shrug, tugging my lips into a small half smile.

I can't look at her, not directly anyway. I avoid her gaze by becoming very interested in the hem of my shirt. Suddenly her hands are on mine and her face is very close.

"Hey...what'sup huh?" She whispers, taking one of my hands in her own.

"Nothing"I reply quickly "just a big week at work..."

I'm blushing so much now I'm sure she can feel the heat coming from my face. Unfortunately for me,she had picked up on my mood.

SCARLETT'S POV

I smirked as I watched her. She always gets like this when we hang out. It's so cute when she gets embarrassed like this. I think I might have a little fun with her.

" " I whisper her name as I place my hand on the side of her face, pulling slightly so she has to look at me.

"Are you sure that's all it is? You're never normally this down after a hard week"

And there we go, wide eyes, hot, tomato red face, and even a lip bite. Man I'm good at this

READER'S POV

I swear she's trying to kill me.

"Y-yes,I'm sure...I guess I'm just tired."

"You know, you're really burning up. I hope you're not getting sick. Here,let me check" She says dangerously close to my face.

She begins to slowly lean in...wait she's not...no way. This cant be real. I stare at her wide eyed until her forehead bumps into mine and rests there. Oh...I sigh internally She's just checking my temp.

"You are a little warm...let me get you something for that" She says as she pulls back. I begin to relax until she leans in again. This time she's pressing her lips to my forehead.Oh God save me from this torture I think to myself as I savour the feel of her soft lips on my skin.

Finally after a moment she pulls away.

"There,that should help" she grins and jumps up, heading back to the fridge.

I can't help but sit there in shock. Did that really just happen?

She walks past me and heads to the door.

"I better get going" she calls out. "I haven't been home all night and my cat probably misses me. Thanks for the Soda, I'll call you later, I think Chris is having a party soon. Get to sleep soon, yeah?Bye"

I hear the door close and I just stare in its direction for a minute. My phone vibrates in my pocket and I pull it out to see a text from Scarlett.

'You don't mind that I took a few bottles for the road? ;) ' it reads.

'Only because I love you' I reply.

Wooow I was blushing the whole time I was writing this. I can't tell if it's because I'm hot or because I had to write this ridiculous tomfoolery. I hope you enjoyed it~ I'm amazed, I actually wrote this in maybe a little over an hour. I hope I can stay inspired to write more soon. In the meantime please keep sending in requests and I'll try to get to it as soon as I can.
