Frost and Fire (+18) ✔️

9 | just friends?

It scares me the type of control he has over my body. No guy ever had this type of control over me. It scares me how well he reads me. It scares the holy living shits out of me.

I have to stay away from him. I don't know what I'll do if I'm around him more than I already am. And no more making out, no more kisses and no more giving those hugs that are not so innocent.

I have to keep a safe distance between us, or I'm afraid I'll end up falling for him, and that is only going to break my heart more than it already is. He will ruin me.

Levi is not the type of guy you fall for. Nope, he is the type of guy who will shatter your heart in million pieces. He is damn attractive and sexy, but he is not a relationship guy. Over the past month and a half I've known him, I have spotted him with more girls than the number of fingers on my hands.

I have seen him play with girls like he's playing golf. I'm not judging him, I've had my days too, and I've played with boys as well. I've used them for sex, and when I got what I wanted, I left and acted like I didn't give a shit.

I am in no position to judge him when I used to do the same. And that's what scares me. We are the same in many ways than I would like to admit.

I know I can't play with the fire without getting burned, I'm no special. Levi and I have this strange chemistry and understanding that I can't begin to comprehend. He and I can't have just 'casual fling'. He is too much for me to not catch any feelings.

He's exquisite.

I got dressed after the quick shower I took in Levi's bathroom and went out to find him already dressed and ready for the day. He was wearing a black tee-shirt beneath his black denim jacket and ripped jeans of the same shade as his jacket.

He looked ravishing, dangerous. And I wanted to pounce on him even though I knew once I had a taste of him, I wouldn't be able to stay away. It's hard enough right now.

"Hey," I said, releasing my hair from the high bun it was in.

"God, how am I supposed to keep my hands to myself when you keep looking like that?" he muttered, running his hand through his hair.

I bit back a response, and instead, I just gave him a soft smile as he pulled me to him and kissed me even after my lame excuses of how his family is right across the hall. Even I cringed internally at the fool excuse. But I let him kiss me, and I kissed him for the last time.

I can't let him burn me. He will ruin me if I tumble him. If just a kiss and a makeout session are enough to make run miles away, I don't know what sex with him will do to me.

I followed him to the kitchen and found his parents making breakfast side to side and talking to Levi's siblings. Elite and Elise giggled at something that their father said, and that was the most adorable sound I've ever heard in my entire life. They were so unbelievably cute.

"Hi, Nia! It's great to see you again," Levi's mom greeted as we neared them and sat on the two vacant stools side by side, "Though, I didn't know you were coming over," she glared at Levi.

"Mom, it was uncalled for. I'll inform you the next time she stays over," He said, surprising me when he said 'the next time she stays over', but my eyes didn't miss his wary glance at me.

"So, there will be a next time?" Elise asked raising her eyebrows at Levi

"Of course, there will be the next time," Elite said, smacking Elise. "He smiled the first thing in the morning because of her. Why won't there a next time?"

"He what?" Levi's father asked completely shocked his eyes widened and brows raised as he stopped midway to serving food on a plate.

"He smiled at her when he woke up," Elite said, shrugging.
