He Bought Me

29.

Franky

"Boris" I repeat as he stumbles back. He mutters another apology then rushes out. "Boris!" What just happen? Did I just scare him off? He knew he was my first.

I dry off and dress the best I can with my knee. Boris left...again. I find my way to the home movie theater and watch The Way Way Back then Halloween (1978) then Coraline and finally, I fall asleep watching Igor.

Boris

"I know, it's none of my business-"

"You're right," I say, cutting Lincoln off, "It's not"

"Boris...did you mean what you said about her?"

I rub my forehead with my thumb and middle finger. It's been hours since I left Franky bleeding and naked in her room. She's right, I am an asshole, I just fucking hope this teddy tiger bear helps my case.

I was her first everything, I was fine with taking her virginity, shit, I didn't even believe her when she said she has never given head before, no teeth, nice tongue work, she even took most of me in. Her fucking first real makeout. How? A face like hers, a body like a real goddess, somebody must've...I can't even think about it.

"Just drive" I mumble to Lincoln. "Wait, why the fuck does it matter?"

"She likes you and doesn't understand how things work. You'll...ruin her"

"Didn't ask" when did he grow a pair of balls?

We finally arrive home, I tell Lincoln to keep the car running, Franky and I are still going out. Grace better not fucking pull anything.

"Where the fuck is she?!" I bark at my men. I almost ripped the head of the tiger off. Phillip runs in.

"She fell asleep in the theater" he breathes. I push past them and rush to my at-home movie theater. She's laying in the front row, head hung over the armrest. I kneel, "Franky?" I fix her head so she won't break her neck. She's wearing the necklace.

"Stop" she groans.

"Baby, it's me"

Franky

I don't know why but I had thought it was someone else. With my eyes shut, I reach out and tug at his hair. "Boris" I moan.

"You were drinking" he snarls, the calm voice from before is dead gone.

"No" I chuckle, "I miss you. I'm sorry I scared you before"

"You didn't scare me" he lies, still sounding irritated.

"Kiss?"

"When you open your eyes and see what I got you"

I groan before opening my eyes. He's kneeling at my side with something behind his back, if he wasn't so buff, I would be able to see what it is. I sit up, "Kiss now?"

He smiles. "How about this first?" he pulls a giant stuff tiger teddy bear from his back.

"Boris" I gasp then begin to squeal. I rip it from his hold, it's as large as me. He laughs as I hug my new teddy bear.

"I'm still taking you to see a real one but I thought this would be better, you could sleep with this one and not die"

"Thank you, Boris!" I spread hard but tiny kisses all over his face. His arm snakes around my waist as mine rest on his shoulders. He kisses my jawline. "Thank you" I whisper.

"Kill it with hugs for five minutes then get dress. Party tonight"

"Five minutes? What time is it?"
