Chapter 28

I woke up that night feeling refreshed. Ben was no where to be seen and I was back in my room. I honestly hadn’t slept in the room since the day he proposed, I stayed in the visitors room.

Everything had been cleared out from here. It was as if the decorations never happened.

I looked down at my clothes. He had changed me from the towel to a shirt, his own, and some shorts, mine.

I got out of the bed, it was quiet, too quiet that I could hear the creak of the bed as I moved from side to side, trying to get out or the bed.

I made my way to the kitchen for water, with the way I acted the previous day, it was enough to get thirsty

“you’re up” Ben said from the living room, focusing on the TV right in front of me.

“It’s the middle of the night Ben, why are you up?” I grabbed the water from the fridge and came to sit beside him.

“you trust me right?” the events from earlier flashed through my mind as he was now looking at me the same way he had looked at me, only this time, he was looking at me with less intensity.

“..... how about you?” I was lost in thought and couldn’t even focus on what he was saying

“huh?”

“i said I couldn’t sleep, you?”

“Oh” his hands came up to my face and wiped the corner of my mouth with his thumb. “Ummm.. yeah.. ummm” I got carried away again. Those fingers. The same long bony yet strong one’s that slipped their way up in to my entrance and made me feel things that should be illegal.

I crossed my legs immediately as down there started to throb.

“are you okay? You looked flushed” he reached out his hands to touch my forehead and I immediately moved out of his way. Who knew the things I could do if he as much as touched me.

“sleep!!” I shouted the first thing that came to my head, causing him to look at me like I had really lost it. “I am... sleep deprived” I faked a yawn. “see you in the morning!” I dived straight into my room not even caring that I may have seemed like a lunatic.

I woke up the next morning feeling refreshed. I was for some reason having this ache to be near Ben, to just be snuggled up with him under the sheets.

I smiled, liking the idea. Maybe giving him my virginity wasn’t a bad idea, maybe marrying him was as bad either, yesterday proved to be a great motivation for me, that being him considerate and kind.

I freshened up a bit and brought out my usual clothes to put on, long sleeves and long jeans when.i stopped mid way.

The weather today was nice, I put it back. Opting for the short sleeved floral shirt that Ben had gotten for me, along with the others. I still kept the trousers since it kind of fit best with the shirt.

I looked at my self in the mirror, for the first time, I felt comfortable.

“I’ve never seen someone as pretty, even while quivering with bliss.” He had whispered as he plunged his fingers in and out of me gently..

I shook my head to get rid of the thought.

I walked out of the room, the smile on my face didn’t seem to want to leave, no matter how much i tried.

“No work today?” I asked Ben who was making himself a cup of coffee.

“I was just going but I wanted to see you first”

‘we had the same thinking’ I thought with a blush.

“What about?” if anything, the smile on my face got wider.

“yesterday “ anticipation filled me.

“yeah?” you could practically see the amusement in my voice.

“never mind, My friends would be coming over” the smile was wiped from my face so fast.

“what? Why?” I was in border line panic mode.

“Nothing serious he has work over here and decided on staying at my place for a few days.” I nodded, it was his house. He could do whatever he decided to do with it.

I told myself over and over again that I didn’t have to come in contact with his friends when they came over.

“hope you don’t mind”

“oh, not at all” I forced a smile, even though a part of me was shoving the part of me that screamed yes to the idea of them coming over.

I went out, since my real dad had agreed to talk more today to get to hang out.

It was going to be a long day in deed.

**

I quite enjoyed myself contrary to what I had thought earlier, entering back inside the house was another thing. I saw Elias and most shockingly, Emily.

“heyyyyyyy babebbbbeeee” Ben greeted immediately he saw me, judging by the amount of bottles that were in front of all of them, I could tell that they were drunk.

I checked the time. 2:34.

“It’s early in the afternoon, why are you drunk” I went towards them, gathering the bottles to put away.

“babeeee, I don’t like her” Emily said getting all touching with MY BOYFRIEND.

“no, you aren’t babe” Ben said drunkenly “that’s baabe” he pointed my way.

“whyyyyy, Is she prettier than me” Emily said, Ben shook his head no.

“she’s eww” Elias said, eyeing me up and down. Even when drunk. He was still mean.

“She’s not eww, it’s just the scars” Ben said laughing with Elias. “You should have seen the one below her breast, disgusting” my mouth fell in shock. Not in a million years did I think he would say that, even when drunk.

I stood bent over, to take the bottles, but was frozen in place. I couldn’t believe my ears.

“How did you see it!” Elias sounded amazed, like a little child.

“we were doing the dirty” he positioned his hands as though he was whispering but his voice was clearly heard.
