Caught in Between

"Was kind of hoping you'd wear those shorts," Kaleb commented with a sly grin as he saw me remove my coat.

"Shut up," I said as I blushed. I smacked him on his arm with my hand and he acted like it hurt him. "I'm going to end up never wearing those shorts again because of you."

"Isn't it a uniform for volleyball games?" Kaleb asked me, raising an eyebrow, but still keeping the grin on his face.

"I guess I'll just quit volleyball," I told him as he took my coat and hung it up on their fancy gold plated coat hanger.

Their house was a mansion that looked like it came out of a movie, TV show or a magazine. Even though it was huge and had a lot of open space, it didn't feel lonely. The Korren brothers did a good job keeping it cozy and inviting rather than focusing too much on a modern and luxurious feel.

"So is this your house?" I asked them both.

"Yes and no," Keith answered as he led us to the right down a long hallway before we got to a door at the end. "Our parents gave it to us to live in ourselves, but it's still under their name," he added with more detail and I nodded.

"Where are your parents living then?" I probably seemed nosy, or maybe I didn't since I was dating them now and I wanted to get to know them better. I also wanted to know who their parents were, because I wanted to see who were the ones responsible for creating such incredibly handsome guys.

"They have another estate up in Washington and in Montana.. but they're actually traveling the world right now, so I guess they don't live anywhere specifically," Keith explained and I turned to Kaleb who was nodding along with all that Keith was saying. Keith opened the door and as soon as I walked in, I gasped. It was large and it looked well-kept. A white screen took up the entire wall and I saw that there was a projector on the ceiling near the door. There were recliners and couches lined up in front of the screen and the entire right wall was covered with movies on shelves.

"You can choose whatever movie you want to watch," Kaleb told me as he stretched his arm out to point his hand in that direction. "I'll go make us popcorn and get us drinks. Anything in particular you want to request?" Kaleb asked me.

"Lemon-lime soda and do you have chocolate candy?"

"Yes and yes. Be right back," he disappeared and left me and Keith alone in the room together.

"Are you in the mood for anything specific?" Keith asked, and I forgot he was talking about movies for a second. I cleared my throat as I stepped toward the wall of movies with Keith right behind me.

"Maybe something with a lot of action in it.."

"Like The Terminator? We got the Borne movies, Mission Impossible movies, The Matrix if you want, John Wick.. whatever you want," Keith said and I groaned as my eyes scanned over the action movie section on the wall.

"I've never seen any of those before, so can you just pick one for me?" I asked him and he nodded as he went over and slid his hand across the spines of the movie cases, looking for one. Keith's muscles flexed when he reached for a movie and pulled it out. "Keith.."

"Yeah?" He turned around to face me. Without thinking, I stood on the tip of my toes and I kissed him. He was surprised, but he relaxed as he wrapped an arm around my waist and pulled me close to his body. He deepened the kiss and I could feel my body melting into him.

"Dang, I missed out on the fun," Kaleb commented playfully as he entered the room. I pulled away from Keith, but he kept his hand on my waist. I looked at Kaleb who had a giant bowl of popcorn in one hand and the other he used a bag to carry all the drinks and candy. In front of the couch there was a glass table where Kaleb set down everything. Keith went to put in the movie he selected while Kaleb grabbed my hand and pulled me to the couch where we sat down. "Do I get to have some of your love too?" He asked eagerly.
