I Slept With My Stepbrother

Chapter 4

I text Ziya's phone hoping she will reply but I get nothing in return instead, my boy Alex text to let me know he is on his way with the rest of the guys. I mean I should look for Zi but she's a big girl and she clearly wants some space from me for her to just disappear right? However, with the guys comes the girls, it would just look bad if Zi comes home to loads of girls in our house. Then again she was the one who fucked off without a word so why should I even care?

I go down to the conservatory which basically became mine and Ziya's chill zone. It has the Xbox, speakers, mini fridge and a shit tonne of games perfect for a guys night in if you ask me. Although, Zi spends a lot of time down here too but, she barely has friends over, normally if the guys are here she will stay with us. Actually, now that I think about she doesn't actually talk to me much when she is in here, she kind of just sticks to Alex and Ryan. Alex is like my best friend, but we are very different; Alex is the guy that is friends with everyone, he doesn't care about his popularity ironically that is what makes him so popular. I, on the other hand, stick to my circle and I guess it's the girls that make me popular, it's like I got ripped out of a book and stuck into real life. I didn't mean for this to happen, it's just easier to go along with a label then spend ages trying to convince the world you are not who they think you are. Ryan, on the other hand, he kind of a floater, he is friends with us because of the connection of football, he transferred to our school like just over a year ago and Ziya gave him a tour around school when he arrived so I guess you could say she was his first friend here and they have just always kept in contact.

The girls are not so close to Zi, Lucy kind of talks to here but that's when the rest are not around. Ziya isn't really interested in their lives and they ain't interested in hers. There is no hate or anything they just have their own friends and the two circles very rarely mix.

After setting up the Xbox and putting some random Spotify playlist on, I hear the doorbell ring and let the group in. To my surprise, Ziya shows up with them with Ryan's arm around her, like what is this crap?

"We saw Ziya on our way out and asked if she was heading home." She couldn't even look at me, he eyes were just glued to the floor. I didn't have anything to say so I just move out the way with some fake ass smile and let them all in. As everyone walks in Ziya moves out the way so that she is the last one to come in but she doesn't walk through the door, she just kinda stands in the doorway.

"Are you going to come in or are you going to run away again?" Her head slowly rises half way, why is she out here looking like something from the ring! "Look, I'm sorry for running away okay? I just had loads of thoughts running in my head and I started to panic. I know what happened today doesn't really mean shit to you but it is the first time any guy has show real attention to me." What? She genuinely thinks that this meant nothing to me, I hate these perceptions that girls have of me, I don't actually fuck around with a lot of girls, girls like to pretend I do but in reality, I don't and the girls I have got history with actually did mean something. 

"Zi, I am not one to lie okay, I would obviously say I'm sexually attracted to you. However, I can't say I am strictly into you at this point because I have never looked at you in that way during high school. I barely even knew you until our parents got together. But saying that, I feel like you could possibly change all of that, I mean I am already getting jealous of Ryan being able to have his arm around you."  I see she is blushing like crazy but she doesn't say anything so I just continue, "You are fucking gorgeous and the guys already love you, but we just need to take things slow and a secret just until we know if we are going to work. Now give me a kiss." 

She goes on her tip toes as I lean slightly down towards her and plant a tender kiss on her lips. Although that wasn't enough for Ziya, as I turn to walk away she grabs my arm and pulls me back in for another.  "I think I can live with keeping it a secret." after one last kiss Zi walks away leaving me a little confused as to what the fuck just happened.

When I get to the den I see that all the guys and Ziya are playing our favourite video game, Overwatch and the girls are sat on their phones probably chilling on Snapchat or Instagram.  "Wait how is Mercy your best character, she is like the hardest to play!" Ryan asks Ziya about overwatch, I don't get why he is all of a sudden so interested in her. "Yeah my worst is Junkrat, but Jordan is good at playing Junkrat ain't you?" I hear her but don't register that it is me Zi is referring to. "Earth to Jordan?"  

"Sorry yeah, but my best is definitely Reaper. You bitches wouldn't stand a chance against me." 

Ziya's P.O.V

Everyone is getting along, drinking and playing games, I stopped playing a while back so I could start prepping dinner. I shout out to the guys to ask if one can give me a hand, Jordan comes running in asking what he could help with. "I think everyone is just going to crash here, are you cool with that?" Jordan asks earning a nod from me. "Cool, do you want to stay down here with us or are you going to sleep in your room." 

If I stay downstairs I get more time with Jordan, but it's not one on one so there isn't much that can occur especially if we are keeping us a secret. But if I go upstairs I'm going to be sat wondering what if any of the girls are trying it with him.  "Depends, do you want me to stay downstairs with you?"

"I mean I am sure we could figure out some way to have some alone time tonight, but it would be nice to have someone to cuddle up to." His arms wrap tightly around my waist and plant soft kisses down my neck. 

"Well, then I guess its settled then." I spin around to kiss him on the lips with a hand pressed on either side of his face. When we move away, we are both smiling ear to ear, even without knowing each other that well I know that we are both so happy in this moment.
