The Boy Next Door

fifty two

OWENS POV
Amelia and I were watching TV together and she was so cute. She was cuddled into my chest and she seemed okay now. I think she might have just freaked out this morning and got mad at her mom, but I'm making sure she knows she's okay and safe. Amelia yawned and looked at the clock.
"I'm gonna shower," she said.
"Okay," I said.
"I'll be back," she said and pecked my lips. She was adorable. Once she left my mom looked in.
"Hey," she said.
"Hey," I said.
"She okay?" My mom asked. I nodded.
"Yeah, she had a rough morning but she's okay," I said, "she's doing better."
"That's good," My mom said and sat down on my bed.
"Yeah," I said.
"Should Carolyn be worried?" She asked.
"I don't know, I think she's just having a hard time continuing recovery," I said. My mom nodded.
"I'll tell Carolyn she's okay," she said.
"Thank you," I said.
"You guys need anything?" My mom asked.
"No," I shook my head, "I think we're good. Thank you."
"You're welcome," my mom said.
"And thank you for letting her stay here," I said.
"You're welcome, but I'm trusting you, no funny business up here," she said.
"There won't be," I said.
"Better not be," she said and kissed my head.
"I promise," I said. Megan popped in my room and smiled.
"Hi," she said.
"Hi," my mom and I said.
"Where's Amelia?" She said.
"Shower," I said.
"Funny thought you'd join her," Megan joked.
"Megan!" I said.
"Oh my god," my mom laughed.
"Anyway, can I go out with a friend tonight?" Megan asked.
"Like a date?" I said.
"More like hanging out," Megan said.
"Is it a boy?" My mom asked.
"Yeah," Megan shrugged.
"Who?" I said.
"Nathan Riggs," Megan said, "we're in the same grade."
"We'll talk downstairs," my mom chuckled. They both left and after a little while Amelia came into my room in one of my shirts and a pair of sweatpants. She was so cute.
"Hi," I said.
"Hi," she said bubbly, she seemed like she was in a better mood.
"Someone's in a better mood," I said.
"Mhm," she said and kissed my cheek.
"You look really cute in that shirt," I said.
"Thanks," she giggled and sat down next to me in my bed.
"I think Megan has a boyfriend," I said.
"I know she told me," She said.
"She did?" I said.
"Mhm, told me all about him," she chuckled.
"Are they dating?" I asked.
"No, they're like taking," Amelia said.
"Talking?" I said.
"You know, like, dating but not dating," Amelia chuckled, "like we were in the beginning."
"Alright," I said.
"Stop being the over protective brother," she chuckled and nudged me.
"Shut up," I said.
"No you shut up," she chuckled. It was so good to see her feeling better, and the have a relaxing conversation.
"I love you," she smiled.
"I love you too," I said. She curled up next to me and I put my arm around her. She wrapped her arms around me and pulled me closer to her.
"Hi," she said cutely as she looked up at me.
"Hi," I said, our lips were super close and she was adorable looking at me. She pulled me into her as I kissed her. We started making out and I climbed on top of her and she smiled. She wrapped her arms around my neck and we continued kissing and there was a knock on my door. Ugh. We both shot up and the door opened and it was my mom.
"Hey," I said.
"I'm going to drop Megan off at a friends house, are you two good here for like 20?" My mom asked.
"Yeah," I said.
"Alright, I'll be back soon, be good," she chuckled.
"Yes mom," I chuckled. She left and I turned to Amelia. I leaned in and kissed her again. She giggled cutely as we started making out.
"Can I ask you something?" She said in between kissed.
"Sure," I said.
"Have you ever had sex?" She said. We stopped kissing and I looked at her.
"No," I said, "have you?"
"No," she said.
"Okay, well why do you ask?" I said.
"Well, I mean, I wasn't sure how far you've gone with someone before and I was kinda nervous to ask you but I'm spending more nights and I don't know," she said embarrassed.
"You don't have to be embarrassed," I chuckled, "it's totally fine."
"Okay," she said.
"I mean do you," I started but she cut me off by saying "I don't know."
"Me either," I chuckled.
"Okay," she said.
"Okay?" I said and pushed a piece of hair behind her ear.
"Okay," she chuckled and kissed my cheek. I wrapped my arms around her and held close to me as I ran my fingers through her hair. She was so precious, and I wanted to be with her forever.
