My Best Friend’s Brother

I enter the house and go straight to my room, and the only thing I can think of and say to myself is:

”Oh, how I hate this guy.”

Chris makes me exhausted with his mood swings every time I talk to him. Not that we have communicated that much in the last few days. And I wish it didn’t make me so angry like I care.

…

I can’t sleep, so I go to the door of Julie’s apartment and walk-in. I know she’s not home because I called earlier, and she was still with Brennan and would spend the night with him. I walk up the stairs slowly until I reach Chris’ room. I open the door slowly and realize that he is sleeping.Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

I move closer, trying not to make any noise. Chris looks so adorable sleeping, not even remotely reminiscent of that sarcastic guy from when he is awake.

I lean closer so I can enjoy that face without him noticing I’m doing it, and damn! What a delicious perfume. I lean closer so that I can smell it more closely. I close my eyes, then decide to walk away and turn towards the door to get out of there, but then I feel a hand grabbing my arm.

I lose my balance and realize that Chris is pulling me. I fall sitting on the bed, he sits on the bed as well, and the next thing I know, he is holding my face and pulling me to Close to him as his lips meet mine, and we start an intense kiss.

He pulls me closer and closer to him, and I sit on his lap. He moves his hands down to my waist and lifts my shirt until it is off my body. He rolls his eyes down my body, and that dimpled smile teases me again.

Then I start to feel between my legs what I felt only with my foot that day, which only makes me feel the need to get closer to him.

I swear I don’t recognize myself. I move further and further into his lap as he squeezes my ass. He pulls me away from his lips, panting, and says:

”This is better than I remembered.”

I end up smiling because I feel the same way. Then we kiss again. He moves his hands up to reach my bra straps as he moves them down my shoulders.

I help him to get rid of it, which at the moment is only hindering the contact between our skins. As I get rid of my bra, he looks at me in amazement as he bites the corner of his lips again with a naughty smile that makes me gasp even more.

He then comes back to my lips and kisses down my neck to my breasts, and I close my eyes as I beg him not to stop.

I wake up kissing my neck and scream, pushing him away. I sit in bed, ready to scream louder, but he comes closer, startled.

”Molly, Molly! It’s me, Colin!”

I go over to him and hug him tight, still surprised but already feeling happy that he has come home from his trip once again. I pull away from him after a while, put a hand on my heart, and say:

”You scared me!”

He starts to laugh and says:

”You seemed to be enjoying it.”

He sits down on the bed and makes me sit down too. And I look at him as the most guilty person in the world for dreaming that I was with another guy, a guy he has already made it clear that he hates.

…

Colin left early, saying that he had not yet gone to his brother’s house, who shares an apartment with him. I think it’s beautiful that he came to my house to be with me first.

I’m going to Julie’s house, I know that her brother sleeps late on Saturday after he leaves on Friday nights, so I can go over there and talk about Colin’s surprise from last night.

I tell her about how he sneaked in and the gifts he brought me, except for that dream I had a while ago. Then I hear a noise on the stairs, and here he comes. His presence disconcerts me immediately.

Chris bids us good morning without even looking at me, and I thank heaven he doesn’t, or he will notice how red my face has suddenly turned.

He goes to the refrigerator to get some water while telling Julie that he couldn’t sleep well. I don’t care what they are talking about because the only scene in my mind is me sitting on his lap, on top of a bed, while he kisses my neck and slowly makes his way downstairs and…

He finishes walking up the stairs back to his room. I sigh with relief, but I then say goodbye to Julie. I really can’t stay here right now.

…

While I am at work, I can’t concentrate on anything, there is a damn dream that doesn’t want to leave my head, and I hate myself for still remembering it.

I leave work early because today is the birthday of one of Mr. Martin’s daughters, and I decide to surprise Colin by showing up at his apartment.

…

Alex tells me to come in, and I ask where Colin is. He says he hasn’t seen him since Friday afternoon.

I find it strange, and Colin told me he arrived Friday night and hadn’t even been to his brother’s apartment. I do not say anything. Alex must have been confused.

I try to call him, but the phone only goes to voicemail. I go back to my apartment again, and maybe Colin is there.

I see Colin’s car parked nearby.
