The Heart's Desires. {Robbie Kay}

★ Chapter Nine ★

                 • Alexis' POV •

Robbie likes me. ME. When we kissed I felt my stomach erupt in butterflies the moment our lips met. Now he was holding me tightly against him. With his jacket and his arm around me I felt so warm and comfortable. He smelled so good too. His cologne smelled like wood and aftershave.  He smelled like heaven.  I felt safe and sound in his arms. No one had ever made me feel like this before. We walked back to his trailer both shivering. It was freezing now. I looked over my shoulder to look the untouched snow that only held our footprints. The snow glistening in the street lights. I looked over at Robbie. His teeth chattering in his thin black tee. He was a sweetheart letting me wear his jacket. His eyelashes were covered in the white glitter and his hair matched.

"S-Sorry it's so c-cold. We're alm-most there." He spit out freezing. I took of his jacket. "You need this more. I have my sweater." I said handing it back. He protested but I was stubborn so he took it. "Let me warm you up a bit." I said standing on my tiptoes to kiss him. I felt my entire body, from my head to my toes, instantly warm up. When we pulled back I bit my lip smiling. "That's something I'll never get used to..." Robbie smirked kissing my forehead.

We made it back to his trailer within no time. "Do you mind hanging with my mom and sisters for a while? I don't wanna be by myself." He said winking. "I'll drive you home after." He offered.  I laughed. "I would've stayed either way." I laughed. He opened the door to his trailer and walked inside. His mom and sisters were watching TV. "Hello!" Mrs.Kay said smiling. The sister I hadn't met yet grabbed the remote and muted the TV. She stood up and ran towards Robbie. She threw her arms around his neck and hugged him tightly.

"I missed you so much dork!" She squealed. I laughed at her remark and she looked over at me. She made a face of exaggerated shock. "Ooooh Robbie. Who's this?"She asked winking at me. "I love embarrassing him." She mouthed to me and I giggled. "Uhm that's uhm Alexis." He stammered blushing.

"Hey Alexis. I'm Fiona." She said hugging me. She must be a hugger. "Nice to meet you Fiona." I said stepping back from the hug. "I love your boots!" She said sweetly.  "Oh thank you!" I replied happily. "Girl talk." Robbie said rolling his eyes jokingly. We all sat on the large couch that lined the wall. We discussed goofy topics and it was just overall fun and down to earth.

"Oh! It's getting late! We better get going." Mrs.Kay said picking up her purse. "It was lovely meeting you all." I said. "It was a pleasure meeting you too." Camilla said. They each hugged Robbie on the way out before waving goodbye and leaving. Robbie shut the door behind them and sat down beside me on the couch. "I'm exhausted." He mumbled. "Yeah me too." I said lying down. "Do you mind if I just stay here tonight?" I asked shyly. "N-No. Not at all." He stuttered making me laugh. I texted my mom I was staying at a friend's house. I just didn't add the fact it was a boy-friends house. She texted back a few minutes later.  working late anyway. Have fun sweetie! Love you. I quickly texted back love you too. Before putting away my phone. Robbie handed me a pair of sweat pants and a baggy T-shirt. "Is this alright? You can take my bed tonight." He said.  I took the clothes. I looked up for the first time and actually got to look at him. He was shirtless and only had on basketball shorts. "Yeah er- thanks.  That'd be perfect." I stuttered. "Great!" He said. I ran to the bathroom and changed. I took a look in the mirror. I liked wearing his clothes... I smelled the T-shirt and inhaled his sweet smell that still lingered. I felt relaxed at the scent. I stepped out of the bathroom and saw Robbie had a blanket and pillow and was sitting on the couch. "Goodnight Alexis." He said from the couch. "Goodnight Robbie." I said walking over to him. I kissed his forehead and then walked a little further down towards his bed. I climbed into the warm sheets and buried myself in the sheets. I was almost asleep nearly as soon as I laid down. Before I knew it, I was out like a light.
