Just A Family Friend

• 3 •

"So, hold up, lemme get this straight." Monae spoke after receiving the news, "there is an old family friend who is struggling that your parents decided to help and offered him a place to stay..." She concluded. "Yep." I replied.
"And~~~ He's super HOT!?" She finished.

"Yes! I mean out of a magazine HOT!" I squealed, "Muscles and everything! He's even got a deep sexy radio voice!" I teased and I could hear her gasp over the phone.

"I know it's tempting, but whatever you do, please be careful!" She commented after a short while.
"Of course!" I waved it off, suddenly, the house phone began blaring through the halls.

A short while after it was answered, mother called my name. I smacked my lips before sighing and telling Monae to hold on. She politely obeyed and waited as I went to see why my mother beckoned me.

I trotted down the stairs, my hand sliding along the rail as I reached the bottom and stood at attention.
"Yes, mom?" I spoke before glancing at Mark who was staring down at his phone screen, leaning back on the wall with one hand stuffed in his pocket. My mother finally hung up the house phone and spun around to face me.

"I just got a business call sweetie and I have to go turn something in." She mentioned.
"This late!?" I asked her, flabbergasted. Her job is always being a douche at the wrong times.
"Yes, unfortunately, but could you be a sweetheart and finish Mark's house tour by showing him around upstairs?" She asked, but I knew it wasn't really a question.

I hung my head down low, not really wanting to, but had to anyway.
"Yes, mother." I muttered.
"Thanks, darling!" She happily stated before kissing my forehead then giving Mark a hug.
"Okay, my daughter will finish showing you around, is that okay?" She asked and he looked up with a soft smile as he nodded.
"Sure, ma'am, whatever you need to do is fine with me." He politely responded, his voice deep and buttery.

I didn't know how I was going to take this. He's legitimately a freaking model!! Soon, my mother finally took a turn to leave and so did my father, so he could return to walk his night shift as usual. I waved goodbye and so did Mark.
I can't believe I'm home with this stranger by myself!
I don't really trust him, even though my parents say he's Just A Family Friend. I think he's more than that.

"Is there something wrong?" His deep enticing voice snapped me out of my trance of thoughts. I spun around to find him focused on me, his body still in the same position as it was. I stuttered a bit before trying to pull on my shirt and boyshorts because I was showing a bit too much skin.
"N-No, th-there isn't." I replied, I took a deep breath and looked around before gesturing him to come follow me.
"Well, I'm going to give you a tour of the upstairs now. Come follow me." I said and he obeyed.

"And this here is the guest room, where you are going to be." I presented the guest room to him and he nodded before taking his belongings in the room with him.
"Looks like my room is right next to yours, huh?" He snickered as he dropped his suitcase.
"I guess so...." I nervously laughed and stood there for a minute, taking in how he looked up close.
Sexy and handsome. Wow.
I couldn't help, but drool at his amazing build.

I snapped out of my trance when I felt a warm palm on my waist. My eyes instantly met his for his face was only a breath away from mine. I felt my face and neck burn up as I blushed.
"You like what you see?" He smirked sexily at me before walking me up against a wall.
"Wh-what do you m-" I started to ask before he backed up and spread open his arms toward me.
"Should I strip for you, so you'd get what I'm saying?" He abruptly asked and I gasped in shock.

He began to pull up the ends of of his shirt teasingly with a playful smirk on his lips. I waved my hands frantically in front of my face, not wanting to witness his gorgeous body.

"No! Please, I-I-" I stuttered, not really sure if I wanted to see or not. Part of me was like, "Yes daddy take it off!" While another part of me was like, "Please no, not my virgin eyes!!".

" I'm just kidding, cutie." He chuckled this very deep laugh that sent shivers up my spine from how sexy it sounded. He let go of his shirt, letting it cover his abs again. One part of me huffed in disappointment while another part of me sighed in relief.

I watched him as he rubbed his hand through his fluffy gorgeous hair and seductively bit his bottom lip. He glanced up at me with his sexy almond shaped eyes before asking me a question.
"(Y/n), your name right?" He spoke and I nodded timidly. I was awkwardly standing in the hallway, making sure I did not enter his room and at least ten feet away from him at all times. He gave me a strange look that was very similar to disappointment.
"Why are you being so shy? I don't bite." He asked in a high and concerned voice.

I averted my eyes from his to the ground in embarrassment. I guess I am to avoid him, but he's a freaking stranger!
"Uh... I don't know you, sir." I finally responded whilst looking him in his beautiful hazelnut eyes.
"You could at least take it that I am a family friend and treat me as such instead of some guy off the street." He spoke a bit bitterly. I glared at him.
"I never said that, sir!" I grudgingly stated. He dropped a bag on his bed roughly before giving me the most serious, yet sexiest look I've ever received.
"Look, I can tell by your actions that you are not very fond of me, but I'll have you know that I'm not some jerk off the streets okay? It isn't my fault that I have to live here. I just need you to be cool with me okay. If I'm going to be living here awhile, I want to be cool with everyone here, okay?" He lectured me and I shrugged before giving him a faint 'okay'.
Still don't trust him at all.
