Chapter Nine

All day Damon had been giving me looks, looks that you don't give to just anyone. I was blushing so hard I struggled to act normal around the whole family.

We spend most of the next day outside enjoying the beautiful weather. The pool became very handy, and we had one of Damon’s friends who had a son come around. It was nice to get to know more of Damon's friends.

“Why don't we all go out tonight, well maybe just the kids," Adam shouts as we all are pretty much lounging around.

Just finishing off the last bits from the barbecue. I was open to the idea. I haven't been out in France and I would really like to experiment it.

"Adam mate we're hardly kids," Damon comments lifting himself out of the pool. I leant back and watched the view with curious eyes. He was just making it harder for me to resist him.

I quickly looked away when I saw my mum now staring at me, probably seeing me salivate over one of my best friends. Fuck that's just embarrassing.

I let out a loud laugh when Adam pushed at Damon's chest making him fall back in the pool with a big splash. his body sunk into the water, but he quickly swam up to the top and surfaced.

“You know what I mean" he rolls his eyes before walking over to the table. I stand up grabbing a towel for Damon as he again climbs out of the pool.

“Thanks, baby" he whispers taking the towel from my hands and dabbing it on his face. I stood there still as I watched his body dripping with water. It was like a scene from a movie.

“You coming too Sky?” Lily calls over at me, I could already tell that Lily was excited. I definitely couldn't let her down. I nod my head indicating I would come.

She instantly smiles and starts grabbing her stuff probably already planning out both of our outfits. I quickly kissed Damon on the cheek before following Lily inside and running up to our rooms.

"I can't wait, you can wear that dress we bought yesterday it's going to amazing,” Lily says as she grabs all of her skin care stuff. I barely got a word in before she was slamming the door of the bathroom shut.

I took that as a cue to leave, I made my way into my own room and showered. My body smelt like a fucking swimming pool and I needed to wash it all off.

The fact that Damon's pool was outside meant that my skin tanned to almost match the color of Damon's. Damon had naturally tanned skin which I was always jealous of.

With my new tan, I picked out the new black dress I bought with Lily. On the hanger, it had looked quite see through but when I tried it on it was actually a solid color, but it hugged my curves perfectly.

I was just tightening the tie at the front when Lily walked in., she was wearing a bodycon red dress. It had an open back and she looked hot. Don't know how Adam is going to manage tonight.

“God, it looks even better now with your tan," Lily says coming closer and scanning my body. I wanted to have my hair natural and luckily for me, I could have natural beach curls. I only needed some gel before I could say finished.

“Girls we're leaving in 5," Adam shouts from somewhere in the house. I didn't even know where he was shouting from but sure enough, we did have 5 minutes until it turned 8 o'clock.

I raced around my room grabbing my phone, spraying some perfume on and also grabbing my heels.

I might actually be able to meet the height of Damon tonight.

Well barely.

" he did what,” Lily exclaims from the bed, I didn't want to tell her whilst looking at her so instead as I was putting on my heels, I told her what Damon did to me last night.

“So, you're telling me that whilst I was praying for your life, Daman was basically feasting on your neck" hmm well that's one way to put it.

“Yes," I say shrugging my shoulder. She quickly jumps up from the bed wrapping her arms around me. "I knew I knew it,” I smiled, enjoying the sight of my sister.

What I didn't love though was the way she looked at Damon as she walked down the stairs. The surprise on Damon's when she passed him was just laughable.

I continue to make my way down the stairs. I tried not openly stare at Damon too much. He looks like fucking sin standing there in his skinny black jeans a black t-shirt.

As soon as I reached the bottom, I walked over to grab my phone was I was pulled into his chest, I knew it was him and I didn't mind it at all.

“Did you tell Lily about last night" he mumbles in my ear, hip lips touching the skin there. I instantly felt nervous. He probably didn't want me telling anyone.

"Maybe,” I simply tell him before brushing past him and following Lily out.

Damon was driving us which meant he wouldn't be driving which didn't surprise me.

He isn't much of a drinker now due to the army and he also wants to stay healthy. This is what I've noticed over the last few days.

“The guys are meeting us there," he tells me when I asked him where Charles was since he was one that got us into one of the clubs.

“That's alright, I heard that our parents are looking after ruby tonight,” I say turning my head to face him.

He hums slightly,” Adrian may have a child but he still parties, probably the worst father figures out there." I had to laugh at the end. Mainly because I agree with him.

“Damon, you know he's a good father, I think you're just jealous he's settled and you're not,” Lily pitched in from the back.

Both me and Adam had to stifle a laugh as Damon scowled. Clearly not happy with Lily's words.

“Calm down babe,” Adam says after a while. Damon didn't reply he just kept driving.

I actually think that she angered Damon with those words.

"I'm sorry Damon, I didn't mean it I was just joking around,” Lily said trying to make it better. I think Damon is quite sore about kiss me out on a lot of his life. My life, Natalie's life.

I placed my hand on his arm, I wanted to give him comfort. Get him to calm down.

"No, your right Lily, I wish I was settled down with a son or daughter. But that's all down to my own decisions. Don't feel bad," Damon finally speaks much calmer this time.

It felt weird to not be the one arguing with Damon. Luckily enough we had arrived.

I grabbed my phone and removed my seatbelt. I smiled when Damon was standing on the end of my door. He opened it up and grabbed my hand pulling me out.

Adam and Lily were already making their way inside and instantly I felt nervous.

He closed the door behind me and quickly pushed my hips back against the car.

He grasped my face in his one hand and left his other at my waist.

"You look beautiful tonight baby girl, fucking hell I could ravish you right now" he whispered against my ear ever so slowly.

My body reacted to him loving the words coming from his mouth.

“Damon,” I moan, "You do look handsome tonight, seriously the army did something else to you," I comment wriggling my eyebrows.

I thought humor was the only remedy for the tense atmosphere he's created.

"Alright let's go inside " he replied pulling me along with him and walking us inside.

As we walked through so many people turned to say hello or just smile at him. Nothing has changed since high school always being the popular one.

I stood by him as he spoke with a ground of his friends. Sensing that I wasn't needed anymore I made my way through the club dancing with random people.

“You came in with Damon right, how do you know him?" one girl asked. She wore a short black dress with open toe heels. She was gorgeous and definitely French.

I nodded. “Yes, I did, we're old friends I actually haven't seen him in 5 years," I told her feeing like I could trust her.

Her eyes widened. "Oh because of the army." Jackpot, I thought.

"Yeah, the boy is always in and out. Bet you're pleased he has quit now though," she asks me.

100%, Nothing pleases me more when I realize, he's actually staying and is safe from all of the horror that war brings even to this day.

“Yes, Damon deserves so much more, " I tell her my eyes staring at Damon as he laughs with his friends.

“You're just smitten aren't you," she suddenly says her mouth much closer to my ear.

I blush slightly.

"Oh, girl join the club. Girls have tried with that one, but nothing seems to work,” she tells me, now we're both just staring at him.

I watch as he playfully ouches some guy laughing along with him.

"Oh, here we go,” she suddenly says her voice laced with annoyance.

I followed her eyes and instantly stilled. Fucking bitch, who is this girl. first, she's in his house with her legs wrapped around his waist and now she's here again.

It's that girl again. She works her way through the group taking her seat right next to Damon. He offers her a glance but nothing that tells me he wants her there. that's right move along now.

“From the look on your face I guess you've already been acquainted,” she mentions finally turning back to me.

I wish I never met her, to be honest.

"I met her at his house when Damon through a party," I tell her going back to that night. The night where Damon had me bent over.

Fuck "Let me guess, she acted like he was her boyfriend "

I only nod confirming her statement.

“They've been together a few times but it's clear Damon wants nothing to do with her, but he's not mean enough to tell her to fuck off," she says.

I didn't know what made me so comfortable in speaking about Damon with this girl, but she did have some good intel and plus she gave off a good friendly vibe which I gladly accepted.

Hearing that they've probably fucked did make me annoyed, but I wasn't going to act on it, yet anyway.

In the end, we ended up dancing together and enjoying our night. I found out that she was a nurse and worked at the local hospital in the maternity ward. she had some surprising stories to tell me. Soon enough she was approached by a guy who looked slightly older.

Her eyes shone. “C'mon they're all going to the private area let's go,” she called out over the music before pulling me along with her.

we are asked into a separate part of the club it has sofas and a big area to dance in. The bar also called out to me.

"I'm going to grab us some drinks," I said to her as she danced with the guy that obviously invited her. he was older but still carried some youth with him and also, he was one sexy guy.

Damon was on one of the sofas chatting leisurely to his mates. He had some friends who were girls. They were friendly though not like the other girl who I now know as Taylor.

I grabbed me and Thea a drink and I also grabbed a beer for Damon. since he was driving, I didn't get him anything too strong.

Just one. To get him relaxed.

I walked over to him slightly nervous to be an intrusion.

“Here I got you one," I said handing him the beer over. He took it offering me a smile that made me satisfied.

“He's driving didn't you think about that," the girl says her voice irritating me already. she wore a smug look on her face almost as if I was making a fool out of myself when I was only giving him a drink.

"Taylor," Damon warns her.

I gave him a look almost saying I got this to which he smirked.

"I know, he drove us from home, but he's got to loosen up. Isn't that right Damon," I said taking a sip of my gin and tonic. Damon's friends seemed to be attempting to hide their smiles.

Taylor only stared at me, but I knew she wanted to say something else. I had clearly won this petty thing she started.

"Come here," Damon mouthed to me once he caught me looking at him. I felt weird coming into the group, but I wasn't going to deny Damon. God knows where that would land me.

I walked between them and slid onto Damon's lap. He opened his legs and made me sit on just one thigh.

"I've been watching you dance all night beautiful " He mumbled into my neck very close to my ear. he made sure that only I could hear which I was thankful for.

I was relieved when his friends left this area and headed to the bar. Even Taylor left with reluctance. I think some guy practically dragged her along with him.

"Did you like it," I asked him slightly nervous for his answer. He quickly grabs my leg turning me around, so I am fully sitting in his lap with my legs wrapped around his waist.

"Fucking loved it, my baby girl has grown into a gorgeous woman," he says his hand rubbing up and down my back.

I closed my eyes enjoying his hands on me.

"It's called puberty Damon," I said adding humor. He responded by going down and biting my neck softly.

"Sassy, aren't you?” I laugh. He doesn't know the half of it.

He leans back his elbows leaning against the sofa. I really wanted to try something, but I wasn't sure.

I decide to do it. I bent down and a placed my lips on his neck. I heard him groan softly before he pushed me into his body.

I kissed his neck using my wet lips to suck on his delicate skin. The moans that were coming out of his mouth were like music to my ears.

"Fuck baby," he moans pulling at my hair. I smiled once I finally learnt back. Whistles were heard behind us and that only made Damon grin.

"Putting on a show are you. Starting to think that wasn't for me at all," he says rubbing his neck where he now has a giant hickey. Don't really know how he's going to keep that covered from everyone.

Maybe a little but mostly I just wanted to return the favor from last night.

"Of course, it was Damon, unless you need some more convincing," I say winking at him. I was hoping I didn't look like an idiot whilst winking at him but from the intense look, he was giving me I knew I didn't.

his eyes only stared back at me. I instantly knew exactly what he was thinking. was I even ready to take it that far?

“Convince me," he whispers his lips dangerously close to my own quivering ones. his lips looked so appetizing.

it's been a long time since I've felt Damon's lips on mine. not like I can remember much of it because it was that long ago.

I felt Damon's hand run up my back and grip the back of my neck.

"No," I said quickly, finally finding my voice. I could tell by the look on Damon's face that he was surprised and hurt by my answer. but did he really think that I would kiss him at a club in front of all his friends and that bitch.

now way.

"But you know where to find me, at home." I finish by saying and gradually lift myself up from his lap. He didn't try to stop me he actually let me get up.

He seems to realize what I'm implying as a grin forms on his face and he almost laughs at the misunderstanding.
