“Sure.” Adalina leans closer and I wrap my arms around her soft body. It feels so good to finally be able to touch her again. I take a deep breath inhaling her familiar scent of vanilla and strawberries.
“Everything alright in here?” Jace’s deep voice comes from the doorway making me and Adalina jump. Adalina pulls out of the hug and gives Jace a smile.
“Yeah, everything is great.” Adalina says glancing at me.
Fucking Jace, always getting in between me and Adalina. It’s like he has a radar that tells him when we are to close or something.
“You guys going to come back downstairs and finish the movie?” Jace asks, stepping into the room.
Adalina’s brows knit together and her eyes narrow looking at Jace. “Are you guys going to keep torturing me?”
Jace chuckles, “I promise we won’t tickle you anymore.”
“Okay fine I will finish the movie.” Adalina crawls off the bed and follows Jace out of the room.
“Are you coming?” Adalina asks shooting me a grin.
“No, I think I’m just going to stay up here. Enjoy the movie though.”
Adalina frowns but doesn’t say anything else. She finally forgave me, Thank f*****g God.
-Adalina's POV-
I can’t believe I’ve been angry at Austin for the past three years for pretty much nothing. It wasn’t that he didn’t want to have s*x with me, it’s he didn’t want to have s*x with me and leave like some kind of bad one night stand.
It’s such a huge relief knowing Austin thinks I am sexy; he has always been the man of my dreams. I know I shouldn’t like him in more than a brotherly way, but I have always been in love with him for as long as I have known him. Maybe I can still make my dream come true with him.
“It’s getting late baby; I think I am going to go to bed.” Jace says, rubbing my arm on the couch next to me. Tyler and Spencer went to bed about thirty minutes ago, leaving me and Jace alone in the living room. “You want to come upstairs with me? Zarakai is gone for the night, so you don’t have to sneak into my room after he’s asleep.”
Shit! I should have seen this coming. Before me and Austin talked, I would have jumped on his offer in a heartbeat, but I just made up with Austin and I really don’t want to miss a chance to spend some time with him. I don’t want to hurt Jace though. He is the only one in the house that knows what happened between me and Austin, and he was there for me.
I love Jace, but I have always been in love with Austin, even when he hurt me. “Umm I think I am going to sleep in my own room tonight, if that’s okay with you?” I ask with a smile.
“Yeah, that’s fine.” Jace says with a smile, but I can hear the disappointment in his voice. “I’m going to head to bed then, if you need me, you know where I am.”
I watch as Jace leaves the living room, leaving me alone on the couch. He didn’t give me a goodnight kiss. Jace never forgets my goodnight kiss.
Tonight, will be the first night with Austin since before my birthday three years ago, and my first time sleeping in the same bed with him. I can’t believe how nervous and excited I am. I wonder what Austin sleeps in, oh my god what should I sleep in? I usually sleep in a t-shirt or tank top and a pair of short shorts with no bra and panties. Is that appropriate? Do I care if its appropriate? Honestly, no I don’t. I think I am going to find my shortest pair of short shorts and my tightest shirt.
An excited squeal slips out before I can stop it. I hurry to turn off the TV and lights and practically run up the stairs. I stop outside my bedroom door debating whether to knock or not. Screw knocking it’s my room. Walking in the room I can’t help but stop and stare at the gorgeous six-foot four shirtless hunk of muscles and tattoos laying on my bed.
His muscles are flexed tight with one hand behind his head. His other arm holds his phone, making his muscular forearm flex. You can see the hard outline of every single ab muscle and I swear I would give anything just to run my tongue over his stomach. And every other part of his hard body.
A warm tingle shoots between my legs and I have to clench my thighs together. “Adalina, hello? Are you just going to stand there?” Austin asks snapping me out of my thoughts with his deep chuckle.
Oh God, he just caught me staring like some kind of pervert. “I umm, umm I just needed to get something to sleep in and take a quick shower before bed.”
Austin smirks, that knowing smirk, the one that says he knows exactly what I was staring at while lost in my thoughts. “Go right ahead, I’ve already showered.”
Nodding my head, I hurry to my dresser and grab a tight tank top and a pair of short fuzzy shorts that barely cover my ass, before rushing towards the bathroom. “Don’t have too much fun in there.” Austin says winking at me.
Scoffing I slam the door trying to hide how red my face is. I hate that he has this effect on me. He barely said anything, and I am flustered, wet and horny as hell. Why did he have to look like a damn Greek god laying on the bed? How the hell am I going to sleep beside him tonight? The bed is going to be soaked from my p***y juices leaking out all night.
This was a terrible idea. Hopping in the shower I make it a little colder than I am used to, trying to calm my nerves. I take my time in the shower, Austin doesn’t even know I’m sleeping in here tonight. What if he doesn’t want to spend the night with me? Just because he apologized doesn’t mean he wants anything from me.
I guess I’m about to find out. Stepping out of the shower I take a deep breath and dry off quickly. Slipping on my clothes and brushing my hair. I take a look in the mirror. My n*****s are hard, and extremely visible through my thin white tank top. My ass is barely covered in my black fuzzy short shorts. My legs are freshly shaved, and I guess I’m ready.
I take one last deep breath before stepping back into my bedroom. Austin turns his head, and his eyes widen at my appearance. His phone slips and smacks his chest with a soft thud. I have to bite my tongue to keep from giggling. I watch as Austin’s eyes rake over my body, from my head to my toes and back up.
I feel my face heating up under his intense stare, clearing my throat I go to the other side of the bed, pull the covers back and lay down.
Austins gaze never leaves my body. “You-you’re sleeping in here tonight?” Austin asks.
“Yeah. Is that okay?” I ask quietly.
“Y-yes.” Austin stutters. “I just figured with Zarakai being gone for the night you would be sleeping in Jace’s room.”
“I told him I wanted to sleep in my own bed tonight.”
“And he was okay with that?”
“I think he was a little disappointed, but he will get over it.” I say with a smile.
Austin smiles. “I’m sure he will.”
“Goodnight Austin! I hope you sleep well.” I turn off the lamp on my nightstand and Austin does the same.
“Goodnight Adalina, same to you!”
After laying in the dark for a few minutes I decide to make a bold move, and scoot to the middle of the bed next to Austin. Close enough that our bodies almost touch. Austin inhales sharply.
“Adalina what are you doing?” Austin asks in a breathy voice.
“You are sleeping on my side of the bed.” I whisper extremely close to his ear.
Austin takes a deep breath. “Oh, sorry I didn’t know did you want to switch?”
“Nope we can just share. I mean if that’s okay with you?”
“Mmm hmm.” Austin says quietly.
