Rrinkers

Chapter 37

Zoe didn't mean anything by that comment, she was genuinely too tired to stand up. Slowly and too late, she realized how that could have meant something inappropriate.

Oh no, why did I say that?!

Did she really just say what I think she said?!

"Come on lazy ass."

Lucas felt the slap of her hand on his arm. He kind of liked it. Holding her up, they both walked through the door of her coffee shop and up to the stairs to her room.

"Do you want me to walk you inside as well?"

Zoe gave him butterflies when she nodded her head sweetly. Lucas watched her take her heels off and leaned on him as they both walked up the stairs.

When they reached the door to go into Zoe's penthouse, Lucas didn't know whether he should turn around or not. He didn't want to disrespect her by going into her home without an invitation but he also could not stay away from her.

"You can watch a movie on the couch while I take a shower and get ready for bed."

Did she just say that to me? How much did she have to drink? Lucas thought to himself. She has never been this forward with me.

While Zoe grabbed pajamas from the drawer and went into the bathroom, she noticed that she was a little tipsy. Even if she drank only two cups of alcohol, she knew herself, and she knew she would have a headache tomorrow morning.

Hearing the shower turn on, Lucas turned on the TV and leaned deeper in the couch, pulling out the foot rest with the chair. "This is a nice ass chair," he whispered.

He scrolled through the channels, not knowing what to watch. When he reached the forensic files show, he immediately stopped there. He couldn't' help his FBI nature.

After half an hour, Lucas heard the shower water turn off and a few minutes after that, he heard Zoe come out in his pajamas.

He couldn't stop looking at her. She looked nice at the party but now she looked even nicer to him. She was wearing a baggy shirt, baggy pajama shorts that showed off her beautiful legs, and her hair was up in a towel. The fact that she was still beautiful without an ounce of makeup on her face made her even more attractive.

"Finally, you finished showering."

"Oh shut up, I didn't even take that long."

"Yes, you did."

"Why are you even here still?"

"I wanted to make sure you didn't fall in the shower."

Zoe laughed. "You would want me to fall, wouldn't you."

"Definitely, so I can go to prison for killing a lady."

The sound of a lady screaming on the TV made Zoe gasp and put her hand to her heart. "What are you watching?"

"Forensic files."

"That's creepy."

"Don't be a pussy."

"Ahh! You did not just say that."

Zoe was standing a little far away from Lucas, where her kitchen was so she decided to find an object close to her, a half full water bottle and chugged it at him.

"What the fuck!"

"That's what you get for making fun of me."

"That fucking hurt."

She tried to hold her laugh in. "Remember that time you hit me in the face with a ping pong ball? Well this is payback."

Smirking, Lucas got off the couch and walked towards her, "I'll show you payback."
