My Roommates Brother

The Morning After

Sorry this one is so short. I promise the next one will MORE than make up for this one.

Please enjoy!

I gently opened my eyes and felt the warmth of the sun on my face. It was morning. I attempted to jump out of bed for my normal morning yoga but swiftly realized I was wrapped in someone’s arms. I quickly remembered what had happened the night before and who’s arms had enveloped me.

Alex…

I looked over my shoulder to see he had not awakened yet. Normally he is little mister early bird so I was a little shocked. I laid there and relished in the feeling of still not being alone. I almost dreaded waking him up. He looked so peaceful all snuggled up in my bed.

So on the caution of not wanting to disturb him and slowly ninja’d my way out of his grasp and tiptoed out of the room without waking him. I heard Marco and Meredith in the living room talking quietly.  I wonder how long the two of them have been awake. I quickly buttoned the rest of the buttons on the shirt to make sure I was completely covered before walking into the main room Both Marco and Meredith were too tied up in their conversation to realize I had walked out there.

I poured myself a cup of coffee and by the time I was done mixing my morning cocktail I realized I had two piercing sets of eyes on me.

“What?” I questioning their unwanted stares.

“Have fun last night?” Marco piped up.

“Ummm no, why?” I was nervous under their scrutiny.

“You’re wearing my brother’s shirt.” Meredith pointed out.

“Oh… Ummm well I can explain… see…” I rambled.

“Marco knows that you guys aren’t together, I came clean about it last night. So it’s your turn to come clean. Did you sleep with my brother last night?”

I thought she would be more pissed off when asking that question than she sounded. Marco must have put it on her pretty good to have her in such a great mood this morning.

“If I fucked her last night, she wouldn’t be walking this good this morning.” Alex chimed in.

I didn’t even realize he was there and I jumped as soon as I heard his presence. As soon as the words sank in I looked over my shoulder at him with my mouth gaped open.

“You know it’s true babe.” He murmured planting one very steamy kiss upon my lips. I didn’t even have the time to explain to him that the jig was up, Marco knew. Not that would have stopped him but it might.

“Now we know you guys fucked all night.” Alex piped back up pouring himself a cup of coffee.

That shut Meredith right up. She turned beat red and attempted to hid her face in Marco’s arm. Even Marco turned a pale shade of pink. Alex came up behind me with his coffee in hand and wrapped his free arm around my waist.  This was the perfect time to tell him Marco knew the truth.

“Marco knows Alex; you don’t have to pretend anymore.” I whispered softly.

“What am I not pretending anymore?”

“The whole boyfriend/girlfriend thing, Meredith explained it all to him last night.”

“That’s a shame. I was getting used to the idea.”  He leaned down and kisses my cheek lovingly.

“And what is that supposed to mean?” I cried slightly above a whisper.

“I guess I’ll just have to wait till Friday to have you be my girlfriend.” He arched his eyebrows suggestively.
