My Heart

7. Moving In

"Does it turn you on?" he carefully, yet lustfully asked. I didn't reply. He then attached his hand to my thigh again, now a bit further up. He made the same circles, now at the inside of my thigh. I swallowed. Then I grabbed his hand in mine and intertwined our fingers.

"Hmm. Good to know" he chuckled and kissed the top of my hand.

"Sorry" he then apologized.

"Can I ask you guys something?" Calum suddenly spoke up, when it, for once, was a silence between he four of us.

"Of course you can, darling," mum replied, knowing what would come would be serious, because of Calum's voice change. He sounded almost scared.

"My family is going away for Christmas this year, all the way to Perth, and I've got no one I know there, unlike my sister," he explained.

"Mum and I agreed on asking you beautiful people if I could maybe stay with you this Christmas Eve?" he asked, looking like a little schoolboy where he stood.

"Of course you can, Calum!" mum cheered. Calum looked up from the floor, now a smile covering his face.

"Really?" he asked hopeful. I was just smiling.

"Of course son," dad begun and slung his arm around Calum's shoulders. He continued talking while walking over to the couches but I couldn't hear what he said. I just hugged mum before following them.

"Let's all watch a Christmas movie," I suggested.

"We have to celebrate this amazing Christmas for as long as possible. Don't want it to end," I admitted, and Calum invited me to sit down next to him, holding me close as I did.

"I can't wait to celebrate my favourite holiday with you, babe" I told him.

"Thank you so much for asking!"

"Thank YOU for allowing me to stay. Not everyone would let a tall, silly guy ruin their Christmas traditions," he said.

"You're not ruining them! You are improving them! We are a family now, and I could not wish for a better Christmas. All I want for a Christmas is you," I sang giggly. He chuckled too, before giving me a gentle kiss on the cheek.

"I love you," he whispered into my ear so only I could hear.

What? Did he already love me? After a week in each other's company?

I looked up at him, to see him looking hopeful back at me. I pouted, wanting him to kiss me.

"I love you too," I whispered, causing both of us to giggle.

The 23rd of December, Calum officially moved in, for almost two weeks. My parents could not stop talking about how much they like Calum for my boyfriend to be. They said they wanted him to be their own son. I just laughed at them and said that he almost was. Besides, I could not be in love with my own brother, so I was glad that he wasn't.

We moved his stuff into the house, and prepared for him to feel welcome. I couldn't stop kissing him, and after dinner, we decided to take a break from my parent's. They were nice and all that, but not that good at respecting silence.

"Calum?" I asked him, when I had just shut and locked the door to my room.

"Yes princess?" he answered me, waiting for me to continue. I then panicked. What was it that I was supposed to say? I couldn't remember.

"Uhm, have you, like," I stuttered, and when I looked at him, I remembered.

"Have you had a virgin before?" I asked shyly.

"Babe, why are you embarrassed?" he asked softly, reaching for my hand.

"Because I'm eighteen years and a virgin," I answered, making him realize it was obvious.

"Lucky me!" he smiled. "I haven't had one before, but I know what it takes," he assured me. I trust him, so I knew he would take care of me.
