New Girl In Town (1) ✔️

Prying Eyes

We stay for a little longer before everyone starts to get restless. My friends are actually starting to look sober enough to make the drive back to Lima.

"Ready to go Pretty Girl?"  I nod and move to stand up.  "Let me just head to the Ladies room and then we should probably gather up my things."  Sebastian releases me from his grasp and I start to move away but he quickly grabs my hand once more.  He presses a kiss to it, much like the very first time I met him.  "I'll drive you back, I'm not ready to say goodbye to you yet Shann."   We share a shy smile and I slip away from his touch, heading towards the other side of the cafe.

My friends spot me and follow. I exit the stall and head to the sink to wash my hands, finding 6 sets of eyes staring at me. "Hey girls. Why is it that I feel like a zoo exhibit today?"  They all look a little ashamed of themselves for their lack of subtlety.  Well except for Santana who has a smug smile on her face.  "Water Sprite, he pop your cherry last night?"

I lock eyes with my own reflection in the mirror. My lips are swollen from kissing Sebastian so much and I'm now blushing bright red to the tips of my ears.  I plaster a smirk on my face, he must be rubbing off on me, turning around to look at all of them.  "Tana, as Seb told Thad this morning, we're not going to invite you guys to join if that's what you're thinking."

Tina gasps. "Thad caught you guys..." I laugh and shake my head. "Not quite. He interrupted a rather heated make out session this morning. Much to Sebastian's dismay. But the way we answered the door lead him to question."  They all look at each other until finally Rachel asks what they're all thinking.  "How, how did you answer the door?"

I just laugh as I recall the PG parts to them.  "Thad is incorrigible I swear.  He just wouldn't stop knocking on the door, calling Sebastian out for coffee. So Seb answered looking slightly rumbled in just a pair of Dalton sweatpants." 

They start to murmur to each other and I answer their unspoken questions, "Amazing. He looks absolutely amazing. Like a statue etched out of marble."  They blush as I continue. "Anyway so Sebastian answers the door and Thad is just rambling so much that I giggle which he hears. I walk over to the door and Seb opens it wide enough for me to be seen, in just his long Dalton Warblers t-shirt as I greeted him with a Good morning Thaddeus.  If only I had my phone in my hand to capture a photo of his face..." I laugh and shake my head.

The girls giggle at that. "Shanny, why did Thaddy buy your coffee?"  Oh Brittney, I love her to bits.  "Peer pressure.  Seb pulled rank as Warbler and Lacrosse captain."  They just look confused by that answer.  I guess I have to spell it out for them as we head for the door.  "Payback. For cockblocking him."   I hear murmurs of oh as we exit the bathroom.  Quinn asks now. "So then you guys didn't..."

Heading towards where Sebastian is waiting for me I whisper back, "Oh we did.  Last night and this morning."  I'm almost out of range when Mercedes dares to ask, "This morning?"  I throw a wink over my shoulder and mouth to them Shower... and continue walking to Sebastian.

Seb is standing near the exit of the cafe talking to Blaine, Nick and Jeff.  His face lights up the moment he notices me. He just looks so adorable right now.  "My four favorite boys."

Pulling me to him in a tight hug I hear him say in a pouty voice, "Only one of your favorites? I thought I ranked higher than that Princess." Pulling back slightly I go on my tip toes to softly kiss him. Teasingly I answer, "Well I've know Blainey my whole life. And technically I met Jeff and Nick before you Bas." I drop back down and turn around to smile at the other three boys with Sebastian's arms still wrapped around my waist.  Jeff and Nick can't help themselves and laugh. "Burn...."

Sebastian whispers in my ear, "You're mean Pretty Girl."

"You love it Sebby, don't lie." He laughs and drops a kiss in my hair. "That I do Pretty Girl. So you ready to go?"

I nod and turn to leave but he stops me. Motioning towards the girls from McKinley who are whispering to each other and staring our way. "Why do I feel like an antelope being stalked by a pack of hungry lionesses?" 

I turn and glare at the girls who try in vain to avert their gazes.  "They're just trying to visualize."  Sebastian's cautious now.  "Visualize what Princess?"  I lean up and kiss his nose before I pull him out of the cafe without a backwards glance at my friends.  "Why you, Seb.  I told them that your body looks like a statue carved out of marble."  He just laughs and shakes his head.

We make it back into his room and I can now see the damage we caused last night.  My shoes are the easiest to find, they are still near the door where I dropped them.  But it takes a while to find all of my clothes, mixed up with Sebastian's near his closet.

I also have to stop him from continuing on our fun from last night as well.  I'm bending down putting my things back in my overnight bag when he comes behind me and starts kissing my neck.  "Seb. You realize that we'll never leave if you start that again. I don't think Dalton will let me board in your room with you.  And if I don't make it back to Blaine's house he will kick your ass."

Reluctantly we leave Sebastian's dorm room and head to the parking lot. "Pretty Girl, you're no fair." We walk hand in hand to his car. We reach it and he opens the door for me, only letting go of my hand long enough to get in the car himself.

"Sebastian, I'm pretty sure we'll have plenty of time to get acquainted with each other in THAT way. I told you, I'm not going anywhere anytime soon." He grabs my hand again and places a kiss on it. I interlace my fingers with his and just enjoy getting to spend the next hour and a half with just him as he drives me home.

Before I know it we're parked at the curb outside of the house. He hurries out of the car before I can even reach for the handle. I pick up my bag as he offers me his hands, helping me out of the car. Once we reach the porch Sebastian pulls me into a tight hug. "I don't want to leave you Shannon." I reach my arms up and wrap them around his shoulders, raising on my tip toes to place a kiss to his lips. I pull back slightly to look into his eyes. "I'll always be here Sebby. You aren't getting rid of me that easily."

I move to kiss him again and Sebastian deepens it, slipping his tongue into my mouth. I savor the sensation until the need for air takes over. Reluctantly we separate.

"Sebastian, I love you."

One more kiss.

"Shannon, I love you too."

Then he lets me go, retreating to his car.

Easily this has been the best week of my life.
