Naomi's POV

My eyes opened to see Mena looking down at me as he played with my hair. "Morning." He smiled.

"How long have you been looking at me like that?"

"Long enough, how'd you sleep?"

"Pretty good, your stomachs quite comfortable, although I can't say the same about this couch."

"Yeah, not our brightest idea to crash here last night."

"At all, but it's alright, reminds me that we've got to clean up, this place is an absolute mess."

"Right back at ya." Mena and I both got up and got every thing we had lying around from our dinner last night.

"Do you wanna store some of this up for later or do you rather just throw it away?"

"I mean theres not much left at all I don't see keep it."

"Fair enough. I'll be right back." Grabbing the bag he walked out to take out the trash. As I finished up doing the dishes I heard my phone buzz.

"Brunch today?"  I read the message from my mom as Mena came in.

"Everything good?"

"Yeah, my moms just wondering if we wanna have brunch later today."

"That sounds fun except, won't Jordan be there?"

"I don't know actually... we were suppose to leave last week so I'm assuming he did as well. I suppose I could just ask my mom."

"Or we could stay here and we can spend some time together, alone." He said walking forward causing me to bump on the kitchen counter. Mena put his arms around my waist. "We can always have brunch some other time."

"Or we could have a normal lunch." I said smiling nervously at him.

"Are you alright? You seem... tense."

"I'm fine, just hungry, tired, that's all." I cleared my throat as I pushed him out of my way. "How about lunch with Nas and Will? That sound good?"

"Yeah I guess."

"Great, I'll just call her then, go on get ready!" Quickly I ran into my room and dialled Nasim.

"Hey sis!"

"Hey, how's everything?"

"It's good, what are you up too?"

"I was actually calling to ask you the same thing. Are you and Will free around 12:30?"

"I think so, why?"

"How does a lunch double date sound?"

"Sounds good, we'll be there."

"Okay good." I sighed in relief.

"Why that sound?"

"It's nothing, just me being dumb as always."

"Why whats up?"

"Mena wants to... you know."

"And?"

"And well I wasn't exactly looking to hop right into it. Plus, after the Emily pregnancy scandal I got a bit scared."

"Relax Nay, if you don't want to have sex just tell him that, I'm sure he'll understand."

"I don't not want too but we've got to be careful."

"Honey, you slept with him for weeks and nothing happened, I'm sure you'll be fine. You still taking your birth control pills?"

"I actually stopped after I stopped seeing Jordan, I could barely fit my jeans."

"Well then, we've gotta do something about that. Or just use protection like everyone else."

"It's so uncomfortable Nas."

"Then you ass has to get fat again it's just the way it is."

I groaned, "Yeah I guess."

"Just chill out Naomi, have lunch and then you can plan out your sexual encounters with Mr. Massoud." Nasim said in a seductive tone.

"Please don't ever say that agai—" Suddenly a knock interrupted my words. "Speak of the devil, I'll talk to you soon."

"K bye."

Rushing to the door I slowly opened it. "Yes?"

"So, whats the status?"

"The status?"

"Yeah, are we lunching?"

"Oh definitely! Get ready we've got to be there at 12:30."

"Okay..." Mena nodded and turned to walk away.

"Mena wait!"

"What?"

"Would...would you be mad if I don't wanna have sex for a while?"

"I mean I'd be not so excited but I wouldn't be mad."

I let out a breathe in relief. "Okay, are you sure?"

"Of course I'm sure Nay. What's gotten into you? Are you feeling okay, for real?" Mena walked up to me and placed his hand on my forehead.

"I'm feeling fine I just, want to be careful."

"With what?"

"With... us you know."

"We had sex for weeks, why all the sudden worry?"

"Well because," I bit my lip nervously, "You had a scare already and I'm not exactly in the place right now to have a similar one."

"Oh, you mean like... but are you not on the pill?"

"I was, but I was hoping to slim up a bit before getting back on it." I scrunched my nose at him.

Mena couldn't hold back his laugh. "Are you serious Nay? No wondering you seemed smaller than usual lately. But you looked just fine before you know."

"Sure I did." I rolled my eyes.

"I'm serious Naomi. You really did, you always look good to me." He smiled as he grabbed me by the waist. "You're perfect."

I could feel myself blushing as he looked down on me. "Thank you."

"Always. Now come on are you hungry or not because I'm starving."

"Yeah you're right lets get dressed."

"Lets? As in together?" He followed me into my room with a grin.

"Bye Mena!" I pushed him out.

"I'm kidding, it was a joke. This was the part where you laughed with me!" He shouted as I shut the door.

"Whatever you say,"

"Can you at least tell me what color you're wearing so I can match!" I heard him shout.

"Guess!"

"Ahhh no! At least wear my hoodie today!"

I ran to reopen the door. "What's wrong with mine?"

"You use it everyday, come on! Just for today." Mena handed me his.

"Fine, but just know this is mine now."

"Fair enough." He chuckled. "I'll be ready in 15,"
