Unexpected Love

Chapter 19

   "Soo... What did you want to talk to me about?" Mia asked.
   "I'm sorry if I have been I little distant. And please don't ask what the problem is. I'm not ready to talk about it yet." The truth is, I didn't want her to find out that I was kicked out because I was with another girl. Mia wouldn't want to talk to me ever again if I told her the truth.
   "No it's alright. I totally understand," she answered.
   "Soo... why is Cole here?" I asked. I had gotten pissed when I had first spotted him coming out of the car with Mia.
   "Well you know we're best friends. He's always welcome here. And he has his own problems to deal with, and we're the closest to family that he has," Mia said, looking at the intertwined fingers of her hand that were currently on her lap. I knew then I couldn't push her to tell me what his problems were.
   "I see. Well I hope his problems get resolved," I smiled. Ha! I so wished they did. Maybe then he'd go away.
   "Thanks," Mia smiled back. "I hope your problem gets resolved too."
   We sat there in silence just looking at each other, until she started to stand up.
   "It's getting late, so I better go to bed. Do you need anything else?" she asked.
   "I do need one more thing..." I said standing up.
   "What is it?"
   "A hug," I smiled getting closer to her.
   I hugged her and smelled the strawberry shampoo in her hair when I inhaled. As I pulled away I held her a bit longer in my arms, and bent down to kiss her.

Mia's POV

   As Jason pulled away from me, he held my arms and bent down to kiss me. It was so unpredicted, I was caught off guard and the butterflies in my stomach were going crazy. When he pulled away I was out of breath and blushing. Why did he make me feel this way? I was developing feelings for him so fast in the past few days. Was this real? Or did I just like the challenge? I had gotten the attention of a bad boy. But was this real... or did he see this as a game?
   "Goodnight Mia," Jason whispered.
   "Goodnight Jason," I said heading out the door. He stood in the doorway with a smile on his face, and damn did it look smoldering hot. I went inside my house and headed for my room.
   I found Cole on my bed without his shirt and pants, only boxers, sound asleep. I looked through my drawers for my PJ's and decided to change there in the room. Cole was asleep so he wouldn't see anything. I was just finishing putting on my shorts when I feel someone's hands on my hips. I try to turn around but he has me pinned in place.
   "Cole, what are you doing?" I whispered, getting nervous and excited at the same time. His hands were skimming the sides of my waist where my skin was bare, giving me goosebumps.
I had just finished saying goodbye to Jason and had even kissed him. How could I be feeling the same thing for two totally different people?
"You know you always smell like strawberries and it's so enticing I just want to taste you," he whispered in my ear, his voice sounding all sexy and alluring.
Starting behind my ear, he trails kisses down my neck and suddenly turns me around pinning me with his body against the wall.
"Cole?" I whisper, already out of breath and a little nervous.
"Yes?" Cole says stopping to look into my eyes. Oh how much those eyes make me feel. His piercing gaze looked as if it could see right through me.
"I really would love to do this but we should go to sleep," I said even though in my head I was craving so much more. I just felt so guilty that I had kissed Jason and if I let myself give in I would personally feel like I was some sort of sex craved teenager.
"What? Is something wrong?" He asked.
"No I'm just really tired. I just want to sleep. Today was a pretty long and tiring day," I said, still whispering. I couldn't even control my voice around him.
"Alright yeah, I'm sorry we should go to sleep," he finally says after a few too long seconds. "I'm still sleeping with you right?" He asks with a mischievous grin. I couldn't help but laugh nervously,"Of course! Just don't move around too much cuz then I can't sleep," I warned.
"Sounds good to me," he smiled, and jumped on the bed as if he were still 5 years old. I smiled to myself thinking of all the times we had sleepovers and fun nights in this same room just talking about random things like Harry Potter, paranormal stuff, and school. Yeah. Sounds pretty boring, but when you can talk to someone about things you can relate to, it's pretty awesome.
I quickly slid in beside Cole and tried not to touch him for who knows what female hormones would start raging just by his touch alone.
"Goodnight Mia," he whispers.
"Goodnight Cole," I whisper back.
