Life Of Lies

Chapter 13.

Lucas POV

"See you tomorrow, Ben!" I yell. I don't know if he has heard me. He likes to work with his music on. I close the door and cross the street. I fucked work up today. I couldn't think about anything else than about the date. It was so perfect. I didn't expect that she would say yes. I didn't expect that she would be my girl at the end of the evening due to her skipping my text about the way I felt the other night. But I actually didn't have to worry. She said yes, without doubting. She even kissed me back. Her lips were so soft. She looked so stunning in that dress. Her smile was so pretty. Actually, her whole body is beautiful. She will always look beautiful, even in a sweater with jogging pants. Suddenly, I bump against someone. I take the woman's hand so she wouldn't fall. "I'm sorry," I tell her. She looks up and starts laughing. "Why is this always happening to us?" the girl says while putting her cap off. "Mel, it's you! I didn't recognize you with your cap in front of your face," I laugh, "but it is a romantic position, you in my arms." She blushes while smiling. "I would appreciate it if you help me standing on my feet again, it's a scary thought that I'm hanging above the ground," she laughs. I help her up. She immediately pulls me into a hug and of course I hug back. Even though we went on a date yesterday, I missed her like hell today. "And yet again, you're my hero," she whispers. "I'll always be, love, don't worry about that." I lean back so I can see her eyes. "I really want to kiss you," I sigh. "Maybe you should, hero," she chuckles. I lean forward and place my lips onto hers. She kisses back. I don't care if people look at us. I love this girl and I really want to kiss her. She releases her lips. "What are your plans this evening?" I ask. "I didn't have plans. Maybe you can come over if you want to?" I nod. "I'd love to."

Melanie POV

"Dad, we're home!" I yell. "I'm in the living room," he yells back. We put off our jackets and I take his hand to guide him to the living room, even though he has been there before. "Look who I've bumped into today," I tell my dad as we walk into the living room. He lifts his head from his book. A big smile appears on his face. "Well, well, well. Isn't it the boy who stole my little girl's heart?" he laughs. My cheeks produce a red colour and I notice I'm not the only one. "I guess that's me, sir. Unless you have seen another boy lately who is as crazy about her as I am?" Lucas chuckles. My dad shakes his head while laughing. "You know how to impress a dad, don't you?" my dad asks, still laughing. "Adults have always loved me. I guess it's in my bones." My dad bursts into laughter again. "I love your sense of humor, Lucas." Lucas smiles at him to let him know he appreciates it. "Dad, I bought some pizzas for tonight so Eric is able to warm one up himself. He has to work late today. Furthermore, it's pizzaday today so we would've eaten pizza anyway," I announce. "Which pizza do you like most?" I ask Lucas while showing him the pizzas we have. He points at the pizza with pineapples. I nod and put the pizzas we're going to eat on the table and the other ones in the freezer. It's 4:30 PM now. I'll turn the oven on at a quater to six. "Lucas, do you want to play Monopoly together with my dad? It's tradition on pizzaday. If you don't want to, it's okay," I ask quietly. I totally forgot that it was pizzaday when I invited him. I'd rather spend some time with Lucas now, but I don't want to let my dad down. We can always watch a movie after dinner. "I'd love to. I love Monopoly. I used to play it with my dad when I was younger," Lucas smiles. I instantly get a smile on my face while thinking about little Lucas. Has he always been this cute? I take the game out of the cupboard. "I'm going to steal all your money just like you stole my heart: fast and unexpected," Lucas whispers in my ear while putting his hands around my waist. "I will win, wanna bet?" I whisper back, turning my head around to find his eyes. "If I win, you have to give me a massage. If you win, you can choose something from my closet that you want me to wear," I add. "What if I don't want you to wear any clothes at all?" he whispers again, with the most sexy voice I've ever heard. "We've been together for one day. Moreover, I'm still a virgin. I'm not going to give my virginity that easy," I mumble, "I guess you'll have to work to earn it, love." His eyes widen. "Are you still a virgin?" he asks astonished. I nod slowly. He pulls me into a tight hug. "You don't know how happy that makes me, Mel," he grins. "I guess you'll have to explain." He takes my hands. "I always wanted my first time to be with someone who is a virgin herself. You know, exploring things together about our bodies and stuff." A happy feeling embraces my body. I feel my body heat because of those words. "We should probably start playing Monopoly, I guess dad is waiting for us," I stutter. I walk out of the kitchen and I hear Lucas grin. It's not that I'm shy or afraid of something sexual, I'm just not used to feel these kind of sexual feelings or to feel that somebody is attracted to me.

"Yes, I want a hotel there," I announce. I'm the first one to buy a hotel. It's almost half seven, which means the pizzas should be ready soon, which also means that the end of Monopoly is nearby. I have the most streets and money at the moment. Dad has the second most streets and last is Lucas. I feel sorry for him, but he doesn't seem to bother at all. He laughs all the time and plays together with my dad against me. I love to see how good my dad and my boyfriend can get along. They are two of the three most important men in my life, so I'm glad that none of them hate each other. The alarm of the oven interrupts dad. "The game is done," dad announces, "I don't think it's necessary to count everything, it's obvious who's the winner today." Lucas lifts himself to sit a bit closer to me. "I already figured out that you were good, but I never imagined that you would be this good." I smile and give him a little kiss on his lips. "You should better buy some massage oil, you'll need it." I stand up and walk to the kitchen to get the pizzas out of the oven. I cut them into slices and put them on a plate. I walk back to the living room. "Here's your plate, Luke. Dad, do you want me to help or are you okay?" I ask. "I'll be fine, love, enjoy your food, kiddos." I smile when he says love. "It's weird, now there are two guys who call me love." They both look at each other and laugh. "It's just because we both love you," Lucas replies while winking at me. I lay my head on his shoulder for a few seconds. "I love you too, both of you."
