SAVE ME- BEN HARDY

chapter 5

When I get back to home, I wear a short plain pastel blue dress and tie my hair with a bow which has the same color with my dress. As I told you, I don't like makeup at all so I only apply golden eyeshadow on my eyes. When I look at the mirror, I feel pleased and comfortable which is all I need.

I go downstairs and see Ally on her phone. She sees me and:

"Aww look at you my darling! You look gorgeous! You're going to the dinner I guess?" says happily.

"Thank you! Umm...You and Mark can come too if you want, don't feel left-off please."

"Oh don't worry. Joe has already invited us but I have a date with Edward tonight and Mark said he had things to do, I guess he's just being lazy tonight."

"Typical Mark. Sooo, you're going out with Edward tonight! How do you feel?" I say smirking, truly feeling happy for Ally.

"Well as you can guess I'm pretty nervous but not in a bad way. I feel comfortable with him...its just...we were always with some people when we saw each other and tonight will be the first time that its just us, thats what makes me a little excited."

"I totally agree with you but don't worry, you won't have to worry about "the first" after the first." Ally laughs.

"You may be laughing but you know I'm right! Try to talk about movies and books and other people if you can't find anything to talk about. I believe this is the hardest part. If you can handle this then you won't have anyting on your way."

"You're right and thank you very much! Say hi to the folks for me!"

                                                                                                ***

After I say bye to Ally and find the address that Ben sent me,  I enter the place smiling. Everyone is here! I see Lucy, Rami, Joe, Gwilym and of course, Ben. They stop talking and stand up when they see me.

"Here's our girl!" says Lucy. "Sky its so nice to see you again, I'd like to introduce you to Rami"

When Rami smiles to me, I have a little heart attack. I mean, ITS RAMI FREAKING MALEK.

"Hey....oh my god its really you! Sorry if that was too corny but I love you so much! I'm so pleased to meet you!" I say a little too excitedly but thank god, Rami keeps smiling.

"Hey. It's nice to meet you!" he says.

Then I say hi to Gwilym and Joe. I sit next to Ben.

"Hey, you look beautiful." says Ben. I look at his blue pants and black shirt.

"Thanks, you look very handsome." I say smiling.

After an intimate conversation with everybody and delicious food, we decide to go home because everyone said they had things to do. Only Ben was available for today and tomorrow, so he asked me if I'd want to come to his place. When we come to his place I realize that I got nothing to wear:

"Umm...Ben do you have any clothes that can fit to me? I got nothing on me."

"Yeah sure. I can give you an over-sized t-shirt if you'd like?"

"Yes thank you so much."

He gives me a plain white t-shirt which almost comes to my knees. I lay down on the couch and yawn because I had a long day. He comes with his underpants only and I stare at him for a while:

"You think this is gonna make me think that you're irresistible or something? I already know that your body is reaaally good but I care about personality more, handsome." I say.

"Well me too but I want you to want me so that we can make out." I am having a little dissapointment that Ben Hardy is just like the other men. 

"I'm not gonna beg you, Ben. We can make out if you want but I'm a little tired."

"That's okay, I'll help you." Then he sits on the couch and kisses me. I respond and we start making out. I can feel his tongue in my mouth at this moment. He drank a little tonight, was that the effect of it? I don't feel uncomfortable and I let him kiss my neck. He's so good at it that I finally sit on his lap and put my legs around him. He smiles to me and we keep going for a while. 

"Sky, do you wanna go to my bedroom?" He asks breathing fast. The question I was scared of. The question that will determine our relationship's future.

"Ben, I think its too early to do this right now. We've just met. Literally, we've just met and I love you, I really do but I don't think we're ready for this. I'd love to take a bath with you, sleep with you but not sex, not right now."

He sighs and hugs me. "That's totally okay Sky. Never feel pressure on you, never. Whenever you're ready. I love you so much."

"Thank you so much for your understanding. You're the best." I smile and yawn again. 

"You wanna go to sleep?"

"Yes please. You have to go somewhere tomorrow?"

"No, it'll be a free day, you can sleep as long as you want."

"Yesss, that is the best thing you said today."

"Really??"

"No Ben I'm just messing with you!! Now let's hit the hay."

We lay down in his bed and we cuddle. I smile so big and give him a big kiss.

"Good night Ben, thank you."

"For what?"

"For everything."

"You are the one who deserves an appreciation. Love ya, good night."

"Good night love."
