Lover Dearest (A Marianas Trench Fan Fiction)

Chapter 4

I woke up, not remembering where I was. Then I remembered that I was at Josh Ramsays house. I smiled to myself. I just realized that I was lying on Josh's lap and he was stroking my hair. "oh, hello sleepy head"

"hi josh, didn't mean to fall asleep on you like that" I tried to lift my head but he pushed it back onto his lap "it's okay, I don't mind i actually kind of like it". I blushed. It's a good thing it was dark... It's dark outside. "shit, what time is it josh?"

"it's a little after midnight"

"why didn't you wake me up?"

"you looked so peaceful and I was kinda hoping you would stay the night. My parents are out and I hate being by myself"

"Mason will shit bricks. I should at least call him"

"go for it, the phone is in the kitchen"

I hated to leave Josh's warm snugly side, but I had to call Mason. He is going to flip out. I dialed the house number hoping he wasn't going to be upset. It rang a few times before he picked up the phone "hello?"

"hi Mason, it's Whitney. I'm so sorry I didn't call you. I hope I didn't worry you too much.. Is that music in the background?"

"uh, yeah. I decided to have a little get together while you were gone. No big deal. Just a few people."

"so when I leave the house, you throw a wild party. Okay that's cool. Just wanted to tell you I'm spending the night here, if anyone touches my stuff or goes in my room, their dead."

"Whitney, I-"

I hung up the phone before he replied. I was kinda mad that he would have a party when I leave the house. I went back into the living room where Josh was patiently waiting on the couch. "so did your brother say you could stay over?"

"excuse me?" I was puzzled when he said this, did he actually think he was the boss of me? "I thought you called to ask permission to stay tonight"

"are you kidding? He's not the boss of me. I can do whatever I want. I was born 6 minutes before him so I should be the boss of him"

"so, either way you're staying, right?"

"yes Josh. I'm staying."

"awesome" he put his arm around me and cuddled with me. I think I'm starting to like him. I cuddled into his shirt which had a distinct smell of cologne and cigarettes, which I liked. The front door opened and a woman and a man walked in. Im guessing these are his parents. Josh said "Whitney, meet my dad Miles, and my mom corlynn."

"it's a pleasure to meet you mr. And Mrs. Ramsay."

His mom replied "such a proper young lady. Very pleased to meet you too Whitney." then they went to their room. They seemed nice. And I think Josh's mom likes me. I'm glad for that. "so where am I sleeping tonight josh?"

"hmm, you have 2 choices, and a wild card choice. You can either sleep in my older sister Sarah's old room, or the couch"

"what's the wild card choice"

"you can sleep in Sarah's room until my parents are asleep, then come into my room"

"I'll take Sarah's room"

I did want to go into Josh's room, but I didn't want to make him think that I would do anything he wanted. The thought of sleeping in his sisters room kinda scared me. We went down the basement where the two rooms are and Josh showed me the room I would be staying in. It was dark and cold. Everything was white besides the walls that were beige. Josh turned to me and said "have a nice stay at Sarah's room. Be sure to pay on the way out"

I laughed a bit and said "screw off Ramsay"

"goodnight Whitney" then he left. I was going to go sit on the bed. All of a sudden he ran back in my room grabbed my chin and locked lips with me, then he sprinted out back in his room. Them I thought to myself "I am defiantly going to his room later. It was about 4:00am, I was still awake, wanting to go into Josh's room with him and also not wanting to wake him. I crept out of my room and stood outside his room for a minute. I could hear moving around, he must still be awake. I lightly tapped on the door then walked in "looks like you decided to chose the wild card, not a surprise." he said in a cocky way. "shut up Ramsay, I'm tired and I don't like sleeping I'm your sisters room" then I pouted like a little girl. He jumped in under the covers and held the blanket up for me to jump in. I instantly climbed in beside him. The warmth from his body felt so good as he wrapped his arms around me. He smelled like cologne and cigarettes still, his pillow smelled like his hair and I was loving every second of this. It feels like I've been longing for human comfort from someone who wasn't my brother, and now that I have that, it feels so good. I was almost asleep when josh had to ruin it by asking questions. "why couldn't you sleep Whitney?"

"I don't know, maybe I just needed someone to cuddle me. Why couldnt you sleep?

"insomnia, I'm used to it."

"now shut up and go to sleep"

I dozed off instantly. It was the best sleep I've had in a long time.
