Lost Love

Chapter 18

"My story?" I asked casually, not letting any nerves slip in.
"Yeah. Who you are, where you come from, family, all that stuff" he says, staring at me. I smile.
"Well I'm Sammy Dylan, you know that much. Uh, I'm an only child, my parents divorced when I was young, I grew up a few hours out of the city, and always have spent summer in the Hamptons" I say.
"It's the only way to summer, I've heard" he said.
"Of course! I can't imagine spending summer any other way" I gush and he chuckled.
"You should see Italy in the summer" he said, eyes glazing over in remembrance. "Absolutely breathtaking" he sighed.
"I'd like to see it one day" I nodded. The waiter placed our food in front of us and we ate while talking, getting to know each other.

"Come up for a drink. My apartment's at the top" he said, eyes twinkling. I agreed and we walked to the elevator. It opened right into his apartment. He lead me into it more and we passed down a wide hallway. When we came out to the main area, there was a red couch, that cornered and sat facing the TV on the free-standing wall, separating the lounge and kitchen. I noticed two bedrooms, both with things inside.
"Who do you live with?" I ask and sit at a bar stool, while he was behind the bar, getting two glasses and a bottle of drink. I think it was whisky.
"A mate from high school. He's away on a business trip" he shrugged. I nodded and watched as he poured me a drink, only filling half the short, fat glass. He did the same for himself and walked from around the bar and past me, bottle in hand. I followed him and sat on the couch next to him.
"So. Tell me your story" I say and sip from my cup. He nodded, doing the boy pout thing while thinking, making his cheekbones stand out.
"I've got a younger sister, who's just turned 18. She's not got a boyfriend. I scared the last one off before he could touch her" he growled. "She's pretty much my whole world. My dad left when I was born, and my mom and step-dad, Hanna's biological dad, live with her in Housten, where I grew up" he said.
"So you're the protective type brother?" I smirked, a new found confidence over-coming me.
"Yeah, very much so. If I find out she's not a virgin, I will hunt down the bastard that-" I cut him off by kissing his cheek. New found confidence, I don't know.
"You need to calm down" I said, laughing slightly, and sit back after kicking my pumps off onto the floor. I folded my legs underneath me, my dress coming up a bit. Kyle's eyes travelled to my thighs and back to me quickly.
"So... you got a boyfriend, or...?" he trails off, a hint of lust in his eyes. I shake my head and sigh.
"Nope. There is a guy, though" I admit, looking down. "But he's engaged" I sighed.
"That's never a good thing" he chuckled. I shook my head. "So, what's this girl got that you don't? A third boob?" he joked, making me laugh.
"I don't know, I've never met her" I giggle, calming myself down. "But it doesn't take a genius to know she doesn't have a third boob" I roll my eyes.
"You never know! She could have some mutation on her chest, making a third boob" he said, shrugging. I laughed again and he grinned. "Your laugh is still cute" he commented and smirked when I blushed.

We had a couple more half-glasses of whiskey before I decided I should go. It was nearing midnight now anyway.
"I should get going" I sigh and stand up, picking up my leather jacket from the couch next to me.
"You don't have to go" he said and followed me to the bar where I placed my empty glass.
"And what would make me stay?" I cocked an eyebrow at him amused. Something flashed in his eyes and he ducked his head so it was right next to mine, his lips lingering over mine.
"I can help you forget about that guy... for tonight, at least" he smirked, eyes twinkling with amusement and lust. I smirked right back.

A/N:

What do you guys think? Is she gonna hook up with Kyle?!

BTW if you don't know already, Kyle is played by Nick Roux, star in Jane By Design. Good show that is.
