Antwoord - Joost Klein

37.

Waking up next to Joost wasn't a new thing. But waking up to my boyfriend Joost was something I could easily get used to.

After last night's kiss and cocaine mess we cuddled up as we usually had done, but this time there was meaning behind it. I pulled him close to me because I wanted him, not because he was someone I could use as my own personal toy for when I needed him.

I looked up at the sleepy man who had an arm wrapped around my waist. I loved the feeling of his touch on my body, so gentle yet firm enough to know that I was his.

Ew I was already getting all lovey dovey at the thought of him, but I couldn't help myself when he was so precious.

A small strand of hair had fallen in front of his face, so I did the gesture of removing them but in the meantime, I accidentally woke him up. He groaned in his sleep as he softly let his eyes open.

"Sorry.." I smiled while leaning my head on his bare stomach as I looked up at him.

"Oh...it's you" He stared down at me.

"Is that a problem?" I said while being a bit offended, but in a joking manner.

"Actually yeah. I hoped to see my girlfriend but here you are" He eyed me up and down.

"What? I thought..." I sat up in confusion wondering if he had blacked out last night or something.

"That you were my girlfriend? No, God no" Joost was quick to say with a chuckle.

"But last night..?" I wanted him to say I was his like he did last night but not a single logical thought was flashing across his brain.

"You thought I asked you to be my girlfriend? Oh sweetheart" he smiled before giving me a hug as if I were hurt.

"What the fuck Joost?" I questioned.

"I never popped that question. I want to do it properly when I'm not crying my eyes out and you're not still gone off cocaine" He finally explained to me.

I lightly slapped his chest for leaving me in confusion. "I hate you" I told him.

"Nah you don't, baby" He pulled me down onto his stomach again while letting his hands go through my hair.

"So how are you going to ask me?" I asked him while biting my lip in excitement.

"That's a secret" He smiled.

"When are you going to ask me?" I asked.

"That's a secret" Joost repeated.

"Are you ever going to ask me to be your girlfriend?" I raised my eyebrows.

"That's a secret" He repeated once more but as he saw the offended look appear once more, he took back his words. "I'm kidding, of course you'll be mine"

"Alright but until then, then I think I'll find a new place to sleep at" I teasingly said and got up from the bed.

It was morning and I had a date to get ready for with Teun. Just because I slept in another man's bed did not mean that Joost would be able to take away my mornings with Teun, they were important to me.

"Come here, I know you want to" Joost had his arms spread wide open with his chest on full display and a duvet hanging extremely low over his hips. My eyes were daring to look but decided against it for now.

"Sorry babe got a date with your best friend" I smiled before exiting his room.

To no one's surprise I was in baggy sweatpants and a baggy hoodie so I could easily head downstairs. Whereas Joost sprinted out of the room only wearing boxes to catch up with me. He stopped himself before going too far and slipped a pair of shorts over his ass but remained shirtless.
