A Reason To Love

Ch. 21

"Listen pal if you don't get your hands off of my ass and actually help me with this project..."

"You will what?"

"I won't kiss you for a whole week." Will and I have been dating for a month now. We spend almost every single day together. He comes over almost every day after school for a few hours and some days he stays later and some days he takes us out on 'adventures or dates. Each date more spontaneous than the last. On our second date he took us out to the Dodgers game, on our third date he took us to a pottery class where we made vases and flower pots, on our fourth date we went to Walmart and got soil and seeds and came back to my house and cleaned out the abandoned green house in my backyard and planted the plant seeds, my dad helped a lot which was Will's idea claiming that it would be good for my dad's hands to be in the soil. The look of pride and admiration on my dads face when he walked into that greenhouse was all worth it, he enjoyed helping and I loved having my two favorite guys under one roof. I even have been spending time at Will's house. His dad seems to have lightened up on the drinking and has actually started being involved with Will and Tucker.

"Oh bullshit you love kissing me, you and I both know that you couldn't go that long without kissing these bad boys." Will winked playfully before puckering his lips, he is right I can't go that long but if it meant proving a point I would. This has been going on for an hour and as annoyed as I was acting I was actually enjoying the feel of his hands on me.

"Do you want to prove that little theory there buddy?" I taunt causing him to narrow his eyes at me as if he was thinking about what I just asked him.

"Fine have it your way, all work and no play." Will pouted and grabbed his Physics binder pulling it towards where he was laying on his stomach on my living room floor. My parents were out at dinner so it was just the two of us here doing homework. As hard as it is not to kiss him we both agreed to take things slow when it comes to sexual stuff, his idea not mine. If I didn't know better it was that I was thinking that he didn't want to sleep with me. Is that crazy? I tried not to let it bother me but try as I may sometimes when we were so caught up in the moment and he pulls away I feel a little rejected.

"You're the one who made the rule of 'no play' here not me." I huffed flipping the page in my textbook feeling the atmosphere change in the room.

"Is that what this is about? Because I said we should wait to have sex?" Will's playful mood had shifted and I instantly regret my little remark.

"I am going to get something to drink. Want something?" I pushed myself off of the ground and padded my way towards the kitchen needing a break from being so close to Will. Being close to Will and ignoring the pull I felt towards him was harder than I expected.

"Cammy come back here." Will called after me but I kept walking. I opened the fridge and grabbed two bottles of water and sat one on the counter and opened the other and took a long gulp of the cold fluid letting it cool down my throat.

"Cameron look at me." I didn't hear him come into the kitchen. I didn't hear him walk behind me. Hearing him call me Cameron is what caught my attention. He never calls me by my name it's usually babe or Cammy.

"What?" I whirl around looking at him questioningly.

"What is wrong?" He frowned looking at my face before looking me up and down with worry.

"Nothing is wrong." I sighed loudly because admitting it out loud that I was frustrated that he wouldn't sleep with me sounds ridiculous.

"You're mad." He sighs before closing more of the distance between us leaving about five inches or so. I could smell his minty breath from where I was standing.
