Daddy's Best Friend | Robert Downey Jr

Part 5

A few days have gone and I've settled in fine into Robert's apartment where my dad and me share. I haven't really done much, just topping up my tan for when I go back to England. It's actually what I'm doing now. Sunbathing on the rooftop of the apartment, lounging around the pool.
There's this guy who's always up here around this time who's so attractive. He must be mid 20's, tanned, toned and when he smiles I swear the whole world around me stops. He's such a beautiful human being but I'm too scared to go over to him and talk to him. He probably has a girlfriend and he looks like one of those guys who knows they're hot and anyone who's not on their level he just looks down his nose at you. I'll just lay over there and admire him from a distance. 
"Can you make it any more obvious?" I jump out of my seat and turn to see Robert standing next to my sun lounger.
"I... wasn't...looking" my voice shakes. 
"Whatever you say. He's an ass, don't go near him."
"I wasn't... I don't know what you're talking about." I innocently say laying back down and covring my body with a towel.
"It's fine! I'm not judging you" he says sitting on the sun lounger next to me in just a pair of swim shorts.
Making myself comfortable again I close my eyes taking in the sun rays.
"Wait... How did you know I was up here?"
"Where else would you be at this time?"
"Have you been spying on me?" I sit up and remove my glasses. He sits staring back at me shaking his head with a slight smirk. 
"No I'm looking out for you. I know what guys are like around beautiful girls like you."
Did he just call me beautiful? My cheeks feel warm, I feel myself blushing from his soothing words. Be cool, don't make it show how much his words effected you!
"Thanks" is all I say. The only words that leave my lip is thanks. Robert smiles and lays down on the sun lounger placing his sun glasses down over his eyes. My eyes quickly scan his toned chest and stomach before he looks up at me catching me looking at him and I quickly lay back down. 
The hottie stands up around the pool, dipping his feet into the water and I can't help but admire him. He's literally perfection and he's roughly age appropriate ish. Maybe I'll grow some confidence next week and go talk to him.
 "You really don't know how to play it cool, do ya?" Robert laughs beside me.
"I'm not doing anything!"
"You're checking him out and he knows it."
"He does?"
"Of course he does! You haven't stopped looking at him. Have you never talked to a guy before?" He laughs and I sit up facing Robert.
"Of course I have! It's just that I'm in a different country that's what it is. Guys here are different. Do you know his name?"
"Well he is British himself! He visits his old man every year around this time. I think his name is Gerri or something like that. I heard he's a complete d*ck to girls. No respect for 'em."
"You shouldn't believe everything you hear. Maybe he's a real sweet guy!" I look over to Robert who's just laying flat looking up at the sun. 
"I'm just warning you so you don't get hurt."
"Did my dad put you up to this?" I say sitting up.
"Nope. He's too busy trying to figure out how to get Lisa to forgive him to worry about who his little girl crushes on."
"I'm not little anymore! I've lived in London by myself for the past 2 years, I can look after myself." I stand up and wrap my kimono around my body and walk away. 
"y/n wait!" I hear him sigh and catches up to me. Robert grabs my arm and turns me around to face him. 
"What!" I say loudly stopping and shaking him off me. 
"Just take it easy on your dad! He's going through a tough time but he's so happy and excited that you are here with him." I sigh knowing he's right. I don't know what happened between them but I do know he loves unfortunately.
"I know he's going through a tough time. I wish he told me what happened between them and fine I'll listen to you about Gerri or whatever his name is."
"I'm sure he'll tell you when he's ready." I feel Robert's warm arm over my shoulder pulling me against his topless chest. He smells so manly, a mixture of cologne and sweat. It's a pretty warm day so I unterstand the sweat but I'd rather not be this close to it.
"What do you say we go back down to the apartment and I give you a taste of my awesome summer's day cocktails?" I question looking up at him as he still has his arm around me.
"Obviously!"
"But I'm not 21!" I say innocently.
"Like you're one to stick by the rules. I've heard about you and all your rule breaking you use to do here, god knows what you get up to in London" he smirks opening the door for me and places his hand flat on my lower back gently edging me in. 
"I just wanted my dad's attention back then. I'm not like I was anymore."
"So you're not going to try my cocktails? More for me then."
"Ohhh I want to try them! I just wanted to make out I'm a good girl."
"I highly doubt you are" he winks at me as we step into the elevator. Wrapping my kimono tighter around my body I look across the elevator as Robert looks back at me. 
"Why would you say that?" 
"Because you live in London and you don't have anyone to stop you from doing the that don't make you a good girl" my cheeks burn and I feel myself turn a shade of bright pink so I quickly look down and unlock my phone pretending to text someone.

The lift gets to our floor and Robert unlocks the door gesturing me to go first and he follows from behind.
"I'll just go get some clothes on and and I'll be down in a little while" I smile rushing to the stairs still conscious of how much skin is on show.
"No problem. I'll have the best cocktails you'll ever try ready for you."
