I was still looking at the floor before James put his hand under my chin and lifted my head so that I was looking at him. He then removed his hand from under my chin and began grinding on me. The boys made dumb noises in the background, which I was thankful for, otherwise I would have forgotten they were there and things probably would have gotten slightly carried away. However, I continued to look at James and out of nowhere he removed his shirt and continued to grind himself into me. I was getting a little turned on, not gonna lie. Before it could go any further, I cleared my throat and said, "he doesn't have to do it for the whole song does he?" Smiling, Tom turned the music off and James got off of me and put his shirt back on. "You are aware that he said lap dance and not strip tease right?" I looked at James. "I am. And you're aware that most lap dances are given without pants right?" He smiled. I didn't have a comeback so I just stood up and sat back down on the couch.
We continued on with the game for about another hour before we decided to go to bed. "Ok, I have one spare bedroom with a queen size bed, so two people can share that. Somebody can share my bed with me and the rest of you can fight over the couch and the floor." Tom said as we all stood up and yawned, clearly tired. "I'll take the guest room. I don't care who shares with me." I said. "Dibs." Both Casey and James said at the same time. The two boys looked at each other like they were willing to go to war over that spot on the bed. "Or I can share a bed with Tom. Since you two want that bed so badly." I smiled a confident and slightly cocky smile. Granted this would be a great time to let Casey know I wasn't interested in him by simply picking James to share a bed with. But I didn't want to do it in front of all the boys. It has to be something I do with just the two of us. "Alright it's settled then. Aria is sleeping with me and James and Casey have the guest bedroom. I don't care where the rest of you sleep, you can figure that out by yourselves." Tom said and began walking towards his bedroom. "Well someone's a Mr. Grumpy pants when he's tired." Charlie whispered so Tom couldn't hear. I smiled at his comment and went to go get my things that Tom put in the spare bedroom. After I picked up my bag and turned to leave the room, I found my path blocked by James. "What was that? I kind of thought you would want to share a bed..." He looked genuinely confused. "I do. But Casey wanted to share with me too and I didn't want to hurt his feelings by picking you in front of everyone." I whispered just in case there was anyone outside the room. "So you do want to sleep with me?" He looked at me and gave me his signature sexy grin. I blushed and looked away, but it was too late. I knew he seen my cheeks flush red. I heard him chuckle and step closer to me. "I better go." I whispered and quickly walked past him avoiding eye contact with anyone until I got to Toms room. "What took you so long?" Tom looked up from his mattress to me. "Oh, um, just saying goodnight to the boys." I lied. He shook his head and stood up. Out of nowhere he took his pants and shirt off and threw his clothes in the corner. "Um, am I missing something? We are just sleeping right?" I asked with a hint of confusion in my voice. He let out a small laugh and said, "yes Aria. We're just sleeping. I sleep in my boxers. Is that okay with you?" He looked at me with his eyebrows raised. "Yeah that's fine." I said and set my bag down on the floor. I pulled out my pajama shorts, tank top, and hairbrush. "Um can you look the other way?" I asked shyly. "Seriously? we've both seen more skin than what you're about to show." Tom smiled but turned around anyway. "Thanks." I murmured before rushing to change my clothes. Once I was changed I told Tom he could turn around. "You're wrong you know." I blurted out of nowhere. "Huh?" Tom looked at me as I crawled into bed next to him. "You're wrong. The most I've ever seen of a guy is at the beach when they're in their swimming trunks. And now you in your boxers." I added quietly while pulling the covers up over me. "But what about when you have sex? I know you've seen a guys--" I cut him off, "nope. Still a virgin." I stated. When Tom didn't reply I looked over at him and saw a shocked expression. "You're a..." He couldn't say it. "Yeah. I am." I answered his unasked question. "Whoa. I mean, congratulations, that's actually pretty amazing. Not too many people can say they're a nineteen year old virgin. Especially when they look like you." He looked impressed. I laughed. "Yeah, because there's something sexy about being a nineteen year old virgin. You know, not only have I never had sex, or given a blow job, but I've never even been kissed." I said and it felt like everything was just pouring out of me now. "Wait, the virgin thing I believe but the never been kissed thing is a little bit harder to grasp." He looked bewildered. "It's true." I said flatly. "Well I can change that." That caught my attention. "What?" I looked over at him. "I'll kiss you if you want to get it over with." He offered. I thought about it for a minute and decided that it might be better to get some practice in before I kiss a guy I actually like. "Yeah alright. But only if you're sure." I asked. He laughed and said, "Aria it's just a kiss. I'm sure if you're sure. You can wait until you find someone you like." He looked at me and waited for my answer. Instead of replying, I softly pressed my lips to his. It only lasted a second but that's all I needed. I pulled away and smiled. "Thanks," I whispered. "Anytime," Tom replied and then turned and shut his bedroom light off, and we both fell asleep as soon as our heads hit the pillow.
