I hear footsteps behind me as I pull the candy down. I turn and pop one in my mouth.
He licked his lips.
"Do you like lifesavers?" I asked.
"They're my favorite." I pop one out of the pack and hand it to him. He takes it graciously with a smile.
"Do you like British boys?" He laughs.
"They're my favorite." He walks towards me.
"Then you can have me." He caresses my face, and leans in.
Right before he reaches my face he whispers, "Nice try." While hastily snatching the lifesavers away. I notice I was holding my breath, I let it out.
"Heyyy!!! Give that back!" I yell. He puts a finger over my lips and points upstairs. That's right, everyone is sleeping. He grabs my hand and we walk upstairs.
"Which side of the bed do you want?" He looks at me.
"I don't care. Do you have a specific side?"
"Not really." He pulls the covers off the bed. "You can change first." How generous.
"Thanks." I walk to the bathroom, clothes in hand, and change into my sweater and cotton shorts. I wipe the makeup off of my face and put my hair into a bun.
"All done?" Will asks as I walk out of the bathroom. I nod. I get into the right side of the bed and pull the covers up over my chest. I notice Will has built a wall of pillows between each side. He comes out of the bathroom.
"Scared you'll kick me tonight?" I joke. He blushes.
"No, just thought you'd prefer it that way." He turns the lights off and climbs into the bed. He reaches over and flicks his lamp off. I hate the dark. I burrow my head under the covers.
"Shelbs? You ok?" Will asks concerned.
"I just don't like the dark." I whisper. I feel the pillow wall being torn down.
"Is it better if you can see me?"
"Yea." But is it really? I roll over to face him, and suddenly I find myself longing to be nearer to him. To touch him and feel his soft skin. I scoot closer to him and our faces are inches, no centimeters, apart. And that's the second that I realize the feelings I'm having have always been there. I just chose to ignore them.Will
I can hear Shelby breathing. Her eyes are closed but she's definitely not asleep.
"Shelby?" I ask.
Her eyes flicker open. "Yea?"
"I thought you were awake." I roll closer to her, but how much closer can we really get. I glance at the clock. 5:00am. Have we really been laying here for 4 hours?
"Shelby, its 5:00. Can you believe it?" No response.
"Shelbs?"
She's sleeping now. I close my eyes and drift off.I have this feeling that people are watching me. I blink slowly and open my eyes. My hands are wrapped around Shelby's waist, and my head is laying on her shoulder. I pull my head away.
"Good morning lover number 1." Graser laughs. I look around and notice everyone is there.
"What the hell?! Are you guys so inconsiderate that you would spy on her while she sleeps?" I yell softly so I don't wake Shelby up. Britt, Meg, and Ash come through the door.
"Come on guys, leave them alone." Meghan says.
At that moment Shelby turns her head.
"Let's give them a show she whispers." Her face comes closer to mine.
"Don't do it unless you mean it." She stops. I roll my body and climb out of the bed.
"Get out!" I yell. Everyone scatters away. I look at Shelby.
"Come here." She whispers. I slug my way over there.
She pats the bed. "Sit."
"What do you want?" She grabs my face and pull it to hers so that our foreheads are touching.
"Do you mean it?" She whispers.________________________
