Fervent Love / Reece Bibby (stereo kicks)

Chapter 6 - how we began

It was so nice coming back into the house, it was sooo much warmer than outside. I ran upstairs immediately and hoped into the shower. When I got out I threw on a pair of black leggings and an oversized white knit jumper. I threw down my blonde hair and only brushed it lightly. 

As I turned off the lights in my bathroom before walking out I saw reece sitting on my bed smiling at me.

'Oh hello' I said not expecting to see him

He patted the spot next to him. I went over and sat down next to him scared of what he might say next.

'Sooo I know these are kind of awkward but are we going to talk about last night or?? Like i don't want to be that person that's pushing things quickly but like what are we now?' 

I laughed a little. he was nervous and his lips were quivering the tiniest bit. 'Well, I'm not to sure about you but I enjoyed that kiss, shall we just see where it goes?' I replied quite confidently 

'Yeah that sounds good he said grabbing my leg. He pulled me into a hug and I laughed. He did give the best hugs though, he was always warm and he grabbed on like his life depended on it. 

We walked downstairs to see what the others were doing. In the living room most of the boys were piled onto the couches playing fifa. As soon as casey saw i'd walked in he pulled me down in between him and jake for a big hug. Reece sat next to chris on the other couch. 

'So who wants to play next?' Barclay asked

'I will' I said 

they all looked at me and laughed a little 'we'll teach you how to play some other time' Tom said jokingly condescing 

I raised my eyebrows and replied 'Excuse me i can play just fine' I said grabbing the controller off casey next to me. Casey was smiling because he'd taught me to play ages ago.

'Right well i'll play against you then' Jake piped up next to me taking the controller from tom

we started playing and at first it was boring but then i quickly realised jake wasn't that good and i just kept scoring. He was getting so frustrated it was cute. Everyone got really into it and by the end i'd beat him 4-1. When the game finished jake was joke mad and started to tickle me. I squealed a little and he eventually stopped and just hugged my waist while nestling his head into my chest. I put my arm over his back. He was also warm..and he also grabbed on like his life depended on it. I jumped back to reality and looked over reece who was staring angrily at jake. Oh shit. I really had to stop, even though it was just rather intimate hugs, I know if this was reece and a girl i'd be just as jealous and him.

I got up, ending the hug and moved over to reece. Jake grabbed my hand but I turned and smiled and let go. Reece opened his arms to me and I sat next to him and leant into his chest.
