Chapter 16: I'm Ignoring You. Anyways-!

Rio is so cute right now, fuck. I can't even hold myself back from asking if I can cuddle him, but at least he agrees... Why does he agree? Does he feel pressured? I can't think about it right now... All I can think about is him. His arms around my neck, mine around his waist. "C-Can we lay down?"
"Y-Yeah, of course, Selena..." I lay down and pull him onto me, cradling him in my arms. He smells so good...
"I have a question, Rio... Do you... Like my jacket?" Rio looks slightly up at me and smiles nervously.
"Y-Yeah... If I don't wear it all day, I at least wear it to sleep..."
"T-To sleep?" I feel a blush red my face.
"Yeah... It's comfy... And warm..."
"D-Does it s-smell good?" I can barely speak a full sentence... I hope he doesn't notice...

"Y-Yeah... It smells like you, so it smells nice and sweet..." He likes how I smell? I guess he does, because he just pushed his face up into my neck. "Sweet..."
"You think I'm sweet?"
"Yeah..."
"You like it? M-My jacket?"
"Your jacket? You mean your hoodie?"
Awwh HELL nah. Why is Rio stupid? A HOODIE has NO ZIPPER and a HOOD, a JACKET HAS a ZIPPER, usually with a hood, and a SWEATER has no zipper, no hood, no friends, no life, MAYBE SOME KNIT PATTERNS AT DAMN BEST. I KNOW RIO DID NOT CALL MY JACKET A HOODIE...
"No, Rio. My jacket..." BEFORE I CAN EVEN CORRECT HIM-
"Oh... Okay, sorry." NOW I CAN'T BE MAD. THIS IS UNFAIR. HE'S TOO CUTE.

Alright. I'll calm down... But this isn't over... Or whatever... Rio's so close, not close enough, I hug him tighter. I feel him move his lips up to my neck and kiss my neck lightly. Is this how he felt when I did it? So flushed and embarrassed? How am I supposed to feel about this? I don't understand... How to feel. "R-Rio?" He looks at me.
"Yes? S-Selena?" I'm sick of waiting patiently. I wanna kiss him. No... That would ruin anything. What do I do?
"Th-That feels nice... Rio..." I can't tell him to stop.
"Thank you..." Rio smiles into my skin, kissing my neck a few more times. Then, I thought I felt a little sting where he was... Had to be my imagination... Right?

"R-Rio?"
"M-Mh... I..." I hear a pop and the sting lifts from my neck... "I- Uhm- I-I-" Did he really... "I think I might have, uhm-"
"Did you give me a hickey?"
"Maybe..." He did, didn't he? Hm...
"Yes or no? I wanna know-"
"Y-Yes! Yes, I did... I'm so sorry, I was caught up in the moment and I wasn't thinking and I'm so sorry." I exhale out of what has to be relief... Right. He just got caught up, he doesn't actually feel anything for me... "I just... I... Uhm..."
"It's okay... Y-You didn't mean to..."
"I-I- did... But... Not because of you..? Just... Just because, you know, you're very pretty, and..."
"You think I'm pretty?" I whisper into his ear, my blush increasing.
"Of course you are..." Oh...
"I'm really cute? I didn't think I was..."
"Of course you are..." How do I respond to this?! He's being so kind...

(This entire chapter, my mind has gone from the writing to noise to memes stuck in my head... I got it done though! Thank goodness... 😅)
