I'm feeling so hot, I pull the duvet off of me and the soft warmth of sunlight hits my skin. I savor the clean white sheets as the night before comes flooding my mind. I sit up blinking severally completely dazed.
I move my legs and pain strikes my left leg lightly. "Oh God!" I mutter, almost moan taken aback by my morning breath. I close my mouth and taking in several deep breaths to calm my rapid beating heart. "Where is he now?" I question myself as I use this chance to study the room more closely.
It's furnished with more expensive tasteful things. The heavy maroon curtains encompasses almost the whole wall to my right showcasing a prime view of the city below .
I quietly move myself from the bed, my feet sinking into plush carpeting. I spot the washroom and I immediately strip ready to take advantage of it.
I step into it and turn on the hot shower. Applying the ivory soap I find there on the Sponge which I'm sure I'm sure belongs to him, I scrub my body without caring a bit am using his sponge. I let the hot water relax my nerves as the soap runs on the scratch on my left leg making it sting. Assuming the pain and lavishing the hot water running down my body, I start dancing enjoying the warm water cascading down my body. It feels so good against my skin.
I use the towel hanging on the door after washing myself clean and step out to his bedroom. I know the towel is used but I don't care. It's his fault, he wanted to bring me to his place, so this it. I wipe my body dry and wrap it around my body still dancing as water drips on my back from my wet hair.
I apply the body lotion sitting on the stand next to his dresser together with other deodorants. I washed my lace panties and wringed them dry using his towel Lol. I pull the t-shirt from last night over my body after wearing my bra and panties. I'm stupid I never even checked on the door if it was closed, what if he stormed in and found me naked. Holy f**k!
I slowly creep to the door and peek out. I start moving to the ground floor, taking one step at a time on the staircases. Everything about the surrounding here is incredible, everything looks sleek and modern. High-priced paintings are strategically placed on white walls. Last night I didn't see everything. I sneer at the luxury of everything around.
My breath almost chokes me as I set my eyes on Bally standing in what looks like a kitchen. Okay in a kitchen not what looks like it. His shirtless back is to me. His tall frame and tan skin screams as his defined muscles ripples when he moves his arm. I stand there like a statue for some minutes and turn back on my heels to the bedroom without him noticing me.
I leap over his mattress letting out an exasperated sigh. I close my eyes tightly trying to think of a way to get out of this place. I've no dress that's so great. And I've not seen Lodzin and Bruce around this place, where are they now?
"Breakfast is here princess." Ballice's voice pulls me out of my train of thoughts. I sit up immediately and he gives me a warm smile placing a tray of food on the table beside the bed.
I feel my stomach growling as the smell of coffee hits my nose.
"Good morning." He greets rubbing his knuckles against his eyes. His voice is thick and raspy. Seems like he has not been awake for that long. He sits next to me on the bed as he runs his fingers through his hair trying to tame the thick curls.
"Morning." I answer looking at him and he flashes me a dazzling smile. Jesus, must he smile every f*****g time?
"Did you sleep well?" He picks a cup of coffee from the tray and passes it to me. He is raising an eyebrow as a smirk starts growing on his face slowly.
"Of course." I look at him doubtfully and the smirk widens.
"Yeah sure." He says taking a long sip from his coffee.
In the tray there is Bacons, boiled eggs and ripe bananas. I pick a bacon and take a good bite from it. I close my eyes savouring it's taste. "Oh God." I whisper at it's taste but it comes out more of a moan. I take a sip of coffee from my cup and for a moment I think all the numbness in my body disappears.
Ballice clears his throat, I Know he wants to say something but I raise a finger glaring at him. I don't want him to interrupt, this is my moment. We eat in silence and I finally top it up with a single banana. Once we're done, I attempt helping him take the dishes to the kitchen but he beats me to it. He takes them and comes back shortly after.
"I will wash them, you know it's not fair to eat and just sit, it looks ---"
" I don't know what you are talking about, we have people who have that as their job." He cuts me off and I roll my eyes leaning on the headboard. I don't know why I forgot where I am. Of course they have maids who wash their boxers too. I internally say rolling my eyes at the same time.
"So." He grins looking at me with a playful gleam in his eyes. "Someone can't keep her hands to herself when sleeping?" I widen my eyes suddenly remembering my sleeping style or habits, they're so poor, my brother can't survive a night with me. Oh no, I hope I didn't do anything stupid.
"Your hands and legs were all over me the whole night, I tried positioning you back in place but you kept throwing them all over me so I stopped and let them be." He smirks watching my reaction keenly.
Cam and Tif kept complaining to the point where they got tired. So I do sleep in between them whenever we sleep together so that I won't be able to move freely. They're now used to my hands and legs which are always all over them.
Oh Lord I feel embarrassed, so my bare legs were all over him since I was in a t-shirt. To hell, crap! I blush covering my my face with my palms and he pulls them away laughing, really laughing which makes me frown.
"You're embarrassing me on purpose!" I scowl. His hands are still on mine.
"Princess," He intertwines our fingers and continues, "Don't be embarrassed, because I don't mind it at all. If I can be asked to act as your freaking mattress so that all of your frame will be all over me, I won't deny, I'll gladly accept the offer." He says looking at me, his eyes are more clear on their intent.
I feel my cheeks flush red and hot as hell. I can even melt Antarctica with how hot they are. Oh this boy...
"You know that's not good at all, you have a heart to win, so focus and stop being such a mouthy pervert!" I swat his shoulder with my free hand and pull the other one from our intertwined fingers. His facial features change and he moves closer to me.
"Be honest with me, If you were this girl how could have you reacted?" The usual snark in his voice is no longer there.
"How?" I shrug getting confused.
" You see, we're not close and I've only known her for a short period. I know she hates me and as I told you earlier she's tough to get. But one thing that I'm for sure is that I feel good whenever I'm close to her, I feel things that I've never felt before, I never had a girlfriend before but with her I want to try. I've no clue on dating but I'll do it in Ballice version given a chance. I know things are not done that way, at least you have to court her and start with being friends first. I might scare her away too if I tell her my intentions. I'm confused I don't know what to do!"
He looks so devastated and I want to help him so bad but my chest is also tight. I'm jealous of this girl and I don't know why because practically me and Bally we're two different people and we'll never get along.
We're two different worlds separated by a deserted land, pure air and a sea all at once. We'll never meet.
"C'mon Ballice, you've not even tried telling her how you feel. Maybe she also feels the same way for you and you're here giving yourself too much of pressure. The feeling might be mutual. It doesn't matter how long it takes for one to be your girlfriend or boyfriend, you should listen to your heart, minds are just confusing leave them." I pause and look at him, he's also looking at me keenly, listening.
"Anyway, I know I'm stupid, all my attention is to my mind. I've this mindset that I'll think about having a boyfriend when my dreams will come true. Probably after finding a decent job which is after college. I Know I should be listening to my heart but I've never found a guy whom I also feel like I want or feel something for, it has never happened so I'll still follow my mind." I look at him and his muscles tense as his face fall.
