The Long Wait

Chapter 10

Cheresse quickly did all her assignments and took a shower. She still had more time so she checked the progress of her new clothing line and replied to some mails. She then put on her outfit which was a baby pink lace crop top and black denim skirt which reached her mid thigh. She did her hair and makeup and wore pink stilettos. She got her purse and went down the stairs just as the bell rung.

I'll get the door, she said to her mum. Hey, you're just on time. Nice kicks you've got there.

I'm glad you like it. Shall we?

Yes sure. Mum I'm leaving.

Be back before midnight Mrs Parker shouted after her. They got into his car and drove off.

So I've been wanting to ask you . It seems you're a mixed kid, what exactly are you?

Mixed kid really? He chuckled. Well my mum is Hispanic originally from Spain but she and her parents moved to America when she was sixteen and my dad is American.

Cool. That explains the banging bod you've got there.

Oh shut up. She blushed.

You look really nice Cheresse. You're very beautiful. She swallowed hard.

Erm thank you. I guess this is the place. She said just as he parked in front of a one storey building. Yes we are, she heard Damien say behind her. Your friend has a nice house.

Yes let's go in. Never leave my side alright? She nodded. He took her hand in his and pulled her into the building were music blasted. People were already on the dance floor, whiles others were eating face. The room reeked of booze. What would you like to drink?

Just soda please.

Alright will be right back. Don't move. She looked around to find the girls. She eventually saw Shantelle locking lips with some guy. She just smiled and continued her search for, well she didn't know who she was looking for. Her eyes landed on a girl with a strapless top which barely covered her boobs and a very mini skirt that when she bent down showed her pink lacey pantie. She was busily drinking and grinding on some dude with an obvious hard on. Just when she was tired of watching the pair the girl lay her eyes on her and gave her a deadly scowl. Chelsea Brown in all her glory was here. All her hopes of not seeing the slut was ruined.

Damien came back with her drink. What took you so long?

I'm really sorry about that, it was just my basketball buddies messing with me. Do you want to dance? She nodded and he dragged her to the dance floor.

Someone is eager to dance with me. She smirked.

True, you have that effect on me. She blushed and he smiled. Damien teased her whiles they danced to some songs. I want to tell you something let's go outside. The fresh breeze welcomed them when they stepped outside. This is so refreshing, Damien said.

So what is it you want to tell me?

Right, uh, I don't know how to say this. Okay so I really like you , like a lot. I've not been able to get you out of my head since the day I met you. I hope I'm not taking this fast because I don't want to scare you away or anything. I mean you don't have to —— Cheresse cut him off.

Stop blabbering will you and go straight to the point. She smiled.

Okay so will you do me the honor of becoming my girlfriend? He closed his eyes. You know what don't answer that, I'm being stupid.

You don't want me to say yes to your question? You don't want to be my boyfriend anymore? She shook her head teasingly.

What? Did you just accept my proposal? She nodded and laughed. He jumped around and shouted " yes " "yes" and lifted her up above his head and spun her around. He put her down and gave her a big hug. You've made me the happiest person on earth, thank you so much. He looked down at her lips and licked his. May I ? All she could do was just nod. Fire exploded in her body when his lips touched hers. It was slow and sweet and at the same time filled with passion.

So this is where you two have been hiding. They pulled away to see Shantelle with a big smile on her face . You finally grew some balls to ask her to be your girlfriend. It's about time. Couldn't stand the sexual tension any longer.

Oh shut up ! Cheresse said. So what next?

Uh I don't know, what do you want to do?

Let's get out of here. Maybe a ride around town? What do you say?

Alright sure. See you tomorrow Silly. They waved at her and jumped into the car, driving to nowhere in particular. They listened and sung to songs playing on the radio. They also got to know each other better. Finally they ended up at the beach.

Wow, so serene. I enjoy coming to the beach at night. I always go to the beach with Red anytime we go to London.

He got a blanket out of the car and pulled her till they touched sand. He lay the blanket on the ground and pulled her unto it. Come here, he said. He pulled her into the crook of his neck and gave her a kiss on the forehead.

You always smell good. How do you do that?

Bath I guess? He just chuckled.

You're very beautiful Cheresse. I'm so happy I can finally call you my girlfriend. I really do like you and I assure you that I'll never do anything to hurt. Not deliberately at least. This made her blush furiously.

Thanks but don't get ahead of yourself. You might not be able to keep your promise.

I know what I feel and I know what I'm talking about. All you gotta do is trust me.

She sighed and looked up into his eyes. I do trust you Damien. He smiled brightly showing his pearly white teeth and crushed his lips on hers. A soft moan escaped her lips.

You have really soft lips pinky. He licked her lips and kissed down her jaw to her neck. You taste good too Cheresse . He sucked down hard on her neck and went back to her lips. I think I've found my new addiction, he said and that will be you.

Uh - okay, so , she stuttered and he laughed. You know what, let me get you home, it's starting to freeze. She just nodded and followed him to the car. The car ride was silent and comfortable, with the soft sounds of music playing at the background. They finally reached her house.

So I guess we'll call it a night. I really enjoyed my time with you. He gave her hand a soft squeeze and kissed her fingers.

I did too. Thanks for tonight. See you at school tomorrow, she said and opened the door.

Pinky seriously? Not even a good night kiss? He pouted. She rolled her eyes and went back to give him a kiss which lingered for a little while.

Happy now baby boy?

Oooh I like the sound of that. You should start calling me baby sweetie.

Shut up, you pervert. I've got to go, see yah. She jumped out of the car and run into her house.

This girl is going to be the death of me he said and drove off.
