The One

The One (21)

I entered my bathroom and took a nice hot shower. I couldn't help smiling.

Steve Collins likes me.

And the best part? I realised I like him too.

I gave a happy sigh before stepping out of the shower with a bathrobe around me. I sighed. Steve was on my bed again.

"Why are you on my bed again?!" I yelled. Steve smirked at me.

"Just wanted to remind you that dinner's at 7. We're eating the ala carte buffet in the cafeteria downstairs, okay?" he smiled.

My eyes widened in excitement. I'd almost forgot about the ala carte buffet. Every month, the cafeteria would host a buffet dinner free to all students. And the food was amazing.

I grinned. "Okay," I said. Steve smiled and got up. He stroked my cheek fondly before returning to his own room to shower.

I smiled gently at his touch for a few seconds before choosing my outfit for tonight. I grabbed a cute little floral print dress that was halfway down my thighs with a skinny belt. I matched it with a pair of ballet pumps.

I blow dried my hair until it was all smooth, shiny and perfectly straight and matched it with a hairband. I grabbed my concealer stick and quickly fixed up my face with a touch of eyeliner.

When I was done, I went to Steve's room and waited for him to get out of the shower. I crashed on his bed, enjoying his scent.

Suddenly, the bathroom door flew open and out came Steve with a towel wrapped around his waist. Beads of water dripped down from his hair down his chest, pass his abs and into the towel.

"Stop gawking at me, Cinderella," he smirked. I blushed instantaneously.

"Why can't I?" I asked.

Steve grinned at me. "Oh, so you're not shy about it anymore? It's okay, keep on looking," he smirked.

I furrowed my eyebrows at him. "Which egoistic pervert would tell someone to look at their abs?" I asked, disgusted.

Steve gave me a devious smile. "But you're not just someone," he said. "You're my girlfriend."

My heart started pounding. "Who-who said I was your girlfriend?" I replied defensively.

Steve raised an eyebrow. "I like you, you like me. If we're not a couple then what are we?" he chuckled.

[ Ooh that rhymed ]

I stared at him blankly. "Well... I think... we could be considered a... couple," I coughed.

Steve smiled at me, which made me forget how to breathe. "That means you're my official girlfriend now, alright? Alright." He replied his own question without even waiting for me to reply.

I rolled my eyes at him. "Now, Cinderella, would you mind getting out of my room?" he asked.

I looked at him confused. Was he chasing me out of his room?

"Unless, of course, you want to watch me change. I don't mind," he smirked.

Oh, so he wanted to change into his clothes. I totally forgot he was still only in his towel.

"Oh, so you're not moving. I guess you want to watch me change then. That's fine with me."

Before I could even protest, he'd taken off his towel, revealing his perfect ass. My hands flew to my eyes, covering up the scene before me. Seeing his butt was enough, let alone the prized possession in front.

"Okay, okay, I'm getting out!" I yelled and scurried back to my room. I swear I heard Steve chuckle as I rushed back.
