Crashing into new waves - a Wesley Stromberg/Emblem3 fanfic

Chapter 30 - It's you?

"Sooo how hot am I?" Mike smirks and wiggles his eyebrows. "I mean there's no way I can get a no with this." Mike points up and down his body, waiting for my reply.

I take my time to scan over his body. He's wearing jeans which are just tight enough and he has a nice black dress shirt clinging onto his muscular torso. He has left few buttons open from the top revealing a glimpse of his nicely worked out chest. His brown hair falls perfectly in a messy way making you want to tangle your hand in it. I cannot deny it; he's probably one of the most attractive people I've ever seen in my life. I push myself off from his couch and walk over to him. I bite my lower lip to hold in a smile. When I reach him I place my hands on his shoulders and look him in the eyes. "There's no way anyone can say no to you."

Mike's smirk begins to turn into that beautiful genuine smile of his, making him look unbelievably handsome. "So you finally approve me?" He asks happily.

I chuckle. "Definitely, except there's one thing I have to do." I lift my left brow, leaving him room to figure out what I mean.

"What?" He looks down at me.

"This."

I get on my toes since Mike is much taller than me. I reach my hand behind his neck and when I return the hand in front of us Mike burst into laughter. "Price tag! How did I forget it there?! Thank you for noticing, that could have been embarrassing."

I join his laughter and walk back to the couch after throwing the price tag away. "Trust me I was considering to leave it, it could have been my entertainment for this evening. Then I realized I'm supposed to be your wingman and I cannot let my guy ruin his chances. We gotta bring the best out of you, we cannot leave anything to chances."

"Oh so you think I'm a lost cause, that's it? My looks are not enough anymore?" He crosses his hands over his chest and glares at me even though I can see a smile forming on his face.

I cannot resist on teasing him but he really does look fine right now. I had to make him change his outfit couple of times but it was worth it, he looks perfect. I don't think there will be one girl in the bar who wouldn't say yes to him. Okay maybe me but that's because I have a boyfriend who makes me forget all the other men in the world. Like let’s take Mike, he looks like someone you took out from a catalogue of the hottest men in the world and to top all that, he's one of the nicest guys I've ever met. He really is perfect butt I see him only as a friend and that’s because Wes has invaded my mind leaving no room for any other guy. Yea I can say Mike looks unbelievable hot but I can say that about a girl as well and it doesn't mean I want to jump in their pants.

"Exactly. That face is definitely not enough so that's why I cannot let anything else ruin your changes." I wink at him.

"Oh thanks a lot Lina." He huffs but ends up cracking up since he knows I’m just messing with him. "So are you sure you want to go out?" He asks for the tenth time.

I groan and roll my eyes at him. "Yes Mike. What happened earlier with Wes is not going to mess up our plans, in fact it will help me to get my mind of the fight so it's perfect."

"I'm just making sure. You weren't really on cloud nine when I came to pick you up." He replies while putting on some cologne. I feel bad for Mike for having to deal with me after my fight with Wes. I told him everything. I'm still pretty pissed at Wes for behaving the way he did but Mike made some good points on his behalf to calm me down. Figures guys always back each other up, even if one used to hate the other ones guts before. 

"I know, sorry for that but I'm feeling a lot better now thanks to you. Wes just needs to get his jealousy in control." I sigh and lean back on the couch. I know I should go and talk with Wes but I don't want to see him today cos' first I have plans with Mike and second I know that when I see him and if there's even a hint of sadness in that ridiculously handsome face of his, I'll give in. I just want him think about his actions before I face him.
