Sweet, Melah.

Chapter 2

As I slowly make my way home, kicking stones, ignoring my phone going off in my pocket from the group chat Rebecca made about our camping trip. She just gets very excited about organising everything she can get her hands on. I make my way around the corner of my street and I notice a very tall, built man holding a football on my lawn. I cannot quiet make out who it is. His height puts Levi and Mitchell to shame. I grow even more confused making my way closer. 

The closer I get I make out a face. He is the most handsome boy I have ever seen in my whole life. I was taken aback by myself because I have never been so taken aback by a boy my entire life. Who the hell is he? He is very lean, but I could tell he has muscles hiding underneath his sweater. I could tell by the contour of his biceps. I make eye contact and his eyes were a beautiful brown that had a spect of gold in them. His face didn’t make any sort of acknowledgement of me as I make my way onto my drive way. Kind of pulled a small heart string as I am visibly drooling at the site of him, I don’t think he even noticed me as he looks away throwing the foot ball in the air to himself. 

I am pulled back into relality as I feel a warm hug surround me. Anna. 

‘Look at how stunning you are Melah! You have grown into such a beautiful girl.’ Anna has always been so warm and welcoming as I hug back. 

‘Oh, hello Anna! How was the trip here?’ I blurt out. 

As Anna told me every little aspect about their trip here I slowly put the pieces together. The most handsome man I have ever laid eyes on is… BEN! 

‘Do you mind giving your mother a hand, Ben?’ I’m brought back to reality again by the voice of Finn. 

I turn to welcome Finn in a hug awell saying our hello’s as I felt some one brush up against me.

‘Sorry about that.’ Ben says in a low huskey voice as he accidently brushes his arm against my shoulder taking bags into the house. The sound of his voice made me shiver and feel butterflies very low in my stomach. Of course, I have experienced being turned on and sort my self out but the thought of Ben doing those things to me makes my stomach drop. 

Finn, Anna and myself follow after Ben, all carrying their bags inside. My mother is serving up coffees and Finn makes his way into the lounge room where my father is watching a football game. 

I make my way into the kitchen where Mum and Anna were chatting happily. As I walk around the corner I’m met with brown eyes staring into mine. I take a step back as I almost ran straight into Ben. He is leaning against the wall with his phone in his hands. I manage to get a whisper out. 

‘Uh, hey Ben. Um, it’s been a while huh.’ My cheeks grow red and I’m embarrassed at how sheepish I sound. 

‘It has huh.’ Giving me a grin that is so sexy I could just melt into the ground. I pull myself together and turn around and head straight to my bedroom. I need to recoop. 

I stand in the front of my mirror looking at my self. What the hell happened to the shy kid that I knew? Is it even possible for someone to hit puberty and just completely change into the sexiest man alive? Did he notice the eurphoria that he put me in when he smiled at me? 

I finally pull myself together and decided to go back downstairs. As I walk out of my room I heard a mumbled conversation behind the door in the guest bedroom. As I make my way closer I usually am not one to snoop and eavesdrop, but I noticed Bens voice. I didn't even hear him make his way upstairs. 

‘I know, babe… You better be sending some sexy pictures to me while I’m here… Got to find a way to make it through some how… Okay sugar…’ A spark of jealousy hits me. Why the hell am I jealous? 

Before I could start walking away the door slams open and I’m facing a very broad chest. As I look up into  beautiful brown eyes of Bens. I'm taken aback by how perfect he is. 

‘I didn’t mean to eavesdrop I’m so sorry.’ I blurted out. 

‘Don’t worry about it, sugar.’ He says in a sultary voice. 

Sugar? He called me sugar like the girl he was on the phone to. 

‘Was that your girlfriend?’ I say very quickly, flustered by the pet name. 

He gives me a slight smile and leans in to whisper in my ear ‘I don’t do girlfriends.’ I can feel his body temperature radiating off of him. My stomach breaks into a sea of butterflies. He places his hand on my hip and pushes me to the side so he can get past. His hands where so large. I’m suck in the same spot as he makes his way downstairs. 

He is a man w***e. It’s so obvious. Did he just flirt with me right after asking for dirty pictures of another girl? I roll my eyes. Of course he is a man w***e. Look at how perfect he is. He would be able to pick up any type of woman he likes with little to no effort. 

The spark of jealously comes through again. I ignore it and make my way down stairs following him. 

I sat at the kitchen table with my Mum and Anna chatting about life for some time. I managed to block out Ben from my mind since he was off kicking the foot ball outside minding his own business. 

As the sun starts to set, a cold breeze sets in and Ben makes his way inside through the back door. 

‘Ok darling, your father, Anna, Finn and my self are going out to dinner tonight so you and Ben are going to have to entertain yourselves for a few hours.’ My Mum announces to me as both our parents start to get organised to leave. After she says that Ben then gives me a wink. I look away instantly. Even though I've had attention from boys before, this is different. He is so hot, its making my brain sloppy. But I have no interest in being another quest for Ben to conquer. 

I sit there at the kitchen table dreading being left alone with Ben. With my new found information of him being a man w***e, and being a little disappointed about it.

As I gave a wave of good bye, everyone leaves to go for dinner. 

‘So, Melah. What do you do for fun?’ I turn to look at Ben leaning across the kitchen bench with a very mischief look on his face than makes me want to ravish him and rip his clothes off. What the hell has gotten into me?
