Happier With You

Can't Stop the Feeling

The night had peacefully ended, everyone went to sleep after the music was turned off. You were in bed thinking about the moment you and Sebastian had, you thought of his lips against yours wondering what the sensation would've felt. In no time you were asleep.

The next morning was hectic. Everybody helped to tidy up the house so the twins could arrive at a clean place. Most of the guys were outside working on cleaning while you and Sebastian were organizing the kitchen.

You forgot why you were cleaning, his lips invaded your mind. There was a tension in your muscles that Sebastian was able to see. You were passing him to put a few things in the cupboard before he pulled you back into an unexpected kiss.

Your lips crashed against his, moving in sync to the slow pace. The last person you passionately kissed was Benedict. You opened your eyes to only imagine Ben the one kissing you, the image faded away as you saw it was Sebastian. His lips were as soft as you imagined; you closed your eyes and continued to be devoured into the sensation of his lips against yours.

After a few seconds, he ceased the kiss and detached his lips from yours. "I'm sorry, I couldn't resist myself," he gently whispered. You set the items down on the counter and put your hands on his cheeks. "Please don't be," you stood on your toes simultaneously bringing his lips to yours again.

His heart raced as fast as yours. You missed this contact with another person, an intimate person. The kiss picked up a faster pace. You leaned against the counter with Seb hovering over you. His hands were on your hips giving them a squeeze. You know what would happen next if you didn't stop at that moment.

"Seb, I- we can't do this now," you timidly whispered. Your hand was on his chest, he placed his forehead against yours. "I haven't been in a relationship for 5 years, I forgot how to cope with one. I need time to process what just happened," you explained. He sighed but then kissed you once more, "I understand, I can't imagine it's an easy process."

"Thank you, really," you caressed his cheek. "It's not going to take 5 minutes right?" He jokingly asked. You giggled, "No I don't think so." He nuzzled his nose against yours before continuing to work on cleaning the kitchen.

You still leaned against the counter touching your lips with your fingers. Never did you think that kissing someone again would've felt like being on a cloud. You couldn't stop staring at him. He turned back and saw your dazed form. To make it worse he smirked and winked at you before exiting the door. Your heart fluttered with excitement. You giggled to yourself before heading to the cupboard again.

"Grandpa why are we here," James's voice echoed through the house. The wooden door was opening to your kids. "You'll see," the grandfather replied. The twins entered the place and turned to the right to see you and your castmates.

"Happy birthday!" The crowd cheered. Their eyes lightened up to see you. "Mummy!" They ran to your arms. You crouched down to receive them, "My boys," you peppered them with kisses, "Happy birthday, I missed you two so much."

"We missed you too," they had their faces on your neck. "Is daddy here?" One of the voices asked. "Of course I am, I wasn't going to miss my boys 5th birthday party," Ben said from the crowd. The boys departed from your touch and ran to their father's embrace. They hugged him with as much passion.

Benedict's wife was outside with his other children, they were playing in the lake. "The Avengers are here," they both cheered. All the actors gave the boys a hug. "Are you ready to party?" Chris asked them, they feverishly nodded their heads. "Wait till you see outside," Robert commented. The twins switched their gaze outside and saw the lake.

They gaped at the view. "Mummy can we go in?!" Angelo jumped in excitement. "Let's go get you two changed into your trunks," you lead them to your room."

In no time the party was at a full cycle. All the guests arrived along with a few of James and Angelo's friends. The men were taking turns to cook meals while the ladies chatted with each other.

You were busy prepping a few things once you finished you went to sit down at a chair to relax for a few minutes. Not far away was Sebastian, he was chatting with Anthony. He knew you were staring so he would occasionally turn around to catch a glimpse of your eyes. You foolishly blushed when his eyes met yours. You knew you were falling for him.

The splashes of the lake brought your attention, James and Angelo were playing with Angela. You walked over to the chairs placed near the lake and sat at one. The twins saw you and said something to their sister. The three of them sprinted to you. "Mummy, we made a new friend," James excitedly said.

"Her name is almost like mine," Angelo commented. "Angela right?" You inquired, the three of them nodded. "She also looks like us," James pointed out. Now that you had the three of them in front of you, there was a resemblance they shared. The curly hair, the colored eyes, the lips, their cheekbones, and nose. "That's odd," you falsely said. They smiled and heard their favorite song come one.

"Mummy come dance with us," they each pulled your arm while dragging you to the dance floor. Justin Timberlake's song Can't Stop the Feeling came on.

"I got this feeling inside my bones
It goes electric, wavey when I turn it on
All through my city, all through my home
We're flying up, no ceiling, when we in our zone"

You danced with each one in your hand, moving your feet with the rhythm of the song. They sang along.

"I got that sunshine in my pocket
Got that good soul in my feet
I feel that hot blood in my body when it drops
I can't take my eyes up off it, moving so phenomenally
Room on lock, the way we rock it, so don't stop"

They knew every single lyric. Everyone was watching as you danced with them. A few kids joined to dance. "Go bring Sebastian," you encouraged your kids as he stood gazing at you. Angelo nodded and went to tug at his arm, he wouldn't budge. James then went to help his brother, with your index finger you told him to go to you. After a few seconds, he finally budged and followed the twins.

"And under the lights when everything goes
Nowhere to hide when I'm getting you close
When we move, well, you already know
So just imagine, just imagine, just imagine"

You grabbed his hand and pulled him close. A bright smile appeared on his face.

"Nothing I can see but you when you dance, dance, dance
A feeling good, good, creeping up on you
So just dance, dance, dance, come on
All those things I shouldn't do
But you dance, dance, dance
And ain't nobody leaving soon, so keep dancing
I can't stop the feeling
So just dance, dance, dance
I can't stop the feeling
So just dance, dance, dance, come on"

"I can't stop this feeling," your eyes were tender. You didn't say it singing along, it was directed towards Sebastian, confirming this feeling you had for him. The twins kept dancing and jumping.

"You can't imagine how much I want to kiss you right now," he whispered to your ear. You giggled and told him to wait until the song ended. The twins unintentionally separated you and Seb. They bounced off the floor to the rhythm of the song.

Ben was sitting at a chair, he glared daggers at Sebastian. He perfectly knew you, he knew when you were in the mood for sexual attention. He saw that in you.

The song faded away and another song replaced it. The twins grabbed their sister's hand and ran off to the lake as well. They weren't seeing, this was your opportunity. You pulled down Seb for a quick kiss.

You didn't want the twins to see, they wouldn't understand why you were kissing someone that wasn't their father. The adults cheered. "It took you long enough," Robert raised his drink to cheer. You buried your face in his chest from the embarrassment.

Nobody could see how tight Benedict's grip was on the armrest. He got up from his seat and went to the stash of alcoholic drinks. He observed from afar the way Sebastian made you giggle.
