Everyday (Summer) Life

June 3, 2016

I was reluctantly re-watching Saw with my group of friends, which consisted of Roman; Ricky and his cheerful boyfriend JJ; and my quiet friend Mikey. We had just finished watching Halloween (which I had enjoyed watching a ton) but JJ had complained that he hadn't seen Saw before, so we watched it and now here we are...

Roman layed sprawled out on his back on the couch, his hands resting behind his head, and I was curled up comfily beside him nestling under his arm. He was fully focused on the movie, and didn't seem to even notice when I got up and headed to the kitchen.

"Hey, Roman." I glanced over my shoulder before walking out of the room to look at him, but his eyes never left the screen. I groaned and rolled my eyes, trying again to get his attention.

"Roman..." I said in a sing-song voice. This time his legs shifted positions, pulling them up to his chest, but he still said nothing to me. I groaned again and walked back over to him, standing in front of him, blocking his view of the TV.

"Roman. Babe. I'm gonna go get a drink, you want one?" I asked, propping my hand up on my hip impatiently. At first he just stared ahead blankly, but soon enough his eyes wandered up to meet mine. They were completely laced over with sleepiness, and seemed to look at things unknowingly.

"Hm?" He mumbled, probably half asleep and half awake right now. (It was around 1 in the morning, you can't blame the guy.) I giggled and shook my head in amusement.

"Never mind, sleepy. You can go back to watching the movie...or sleeping...whichever one you were doing." He smiled at me faintly, and snuggled back into his bed of blankets on the couch, just quietly mumbling out his reply.

"Probably both...or something like that..." He groaned out, almost inaudible. I smiled back at him and nodded my head.

"Sounds good. I'll be right back." I said. (I'm so glad I wasn't in a horror movie, if ya get what I mean...XD It's a Scream reference, if you get it you're awesome!) I kissed him briefly on the top of his forehead before heading towards the kitchen to grab a soda.

*Time lapse*

I strolled back into his living room, carrying a cold root beer in my left hand. My bare feet padded against the fluffy rug silently as I came closer to the couch.

"M' Kay Roman, I'm ba-" I stopped myself mid sentence as I saw Roman's head tilted back, eyes shut, and snoring. I grinned and had to stifle my laugh with the back of my free hand, setting down my beverage on the coffee table beside me. I slowly and silently snuck up behind the sleeping Roman, my hand covering my mouth to keep from laughing. His sugary-brown hair was just inches away from the tip of my nose, and I could see his chest rise and fall with every breath he took. I carefully reached out my and tapped his shoulder lightly with my index finger. He immediately woke up from his sleep and turned around to meet his waker. He met me eye to eye, and I waggled my fingers at him in greeting.

"Oh! Good, you're finally awake now. I needed to ask you this super important question." I grinned even wider and moved to sit down next to him.

"O-Okay...what might the 'super important' question be?" He asked, seeming to be a bit nervous. I smiled and cautiously pulled myself on to his lap, causing both him and I to blush and blush. I leaned in so close to his face that I could feel his breath against mine, and whispered,

"Are you ticklish?" I said this with my lips barley brushing his ear. He paused for a moment and gave me a confused look, before suddenly gaining a huge confidence boost (he surprised me so much, like, honestly...) He slyly slid his hands on to my waist, and ever so slightly pulled my body close to his so that his mouth now brushed my ear, and whispered back,

"No...are you by any chance?" He said in a husky voice that sent chills down my back, and made my whole face turn a new shade of red. He held me that way for a while, before kissing the tip of my ear softly and saying again,

"So...are you?" This made me shiver again, and I held on to his shoulders for support, our foreheads touching lightly.

"Uhm...yes?" I mumbled back, then immediately regretted it as he pulled his hands up to my sides and began to tickle me. I giggled uncontrollably and tried to squirm out of his arms, but to absolutely no prevail. I soon began to laugh so hard that no sound what-so-ever came out of my mouth.

"O-okay! Okay, okay, okay! I'm done now, I'm done I'm done!" I squeezed out in between giggles. Roman finally stopped his miniature attack and wrapped me up in a hug.

"Alrighty then. Now I know that you're ticklish."

"Well no duh, Sherlock."

He grinned and this and pecked my lips in a short kiss.

"I love you." He said, smiling.

"I love you more." I said back.

(A.N./This whole 'I love you more' thing started a whole chain of 'yes no yes no yes no yes no yes no yes no' and so on...it is madness I tell you! >-<)
