At her expression, I brought my arm around her again "Why don't I come over for a sleepover at yours and we eat our own weight in gummy bears and watch The Notebook?"

"That sounds really good." She replied, sniffling "Are you sure you do not want to go home with Stone?"

"Nothing has changed, Barbie." I assured her "If one of us is upset then the other must make the excuse of period and stomach cramps and then we both go home. We watch cringey films and we stuff our faces with food. That is how we work, and no guy could ever change that."

"Thank you, Freak Show" Lana laughed before motioning down the hall at the two males who were coming our way "I need to talk to Brennan."

I nodded once as the two guys approached abs, I pulled myself away from Lana.

Meeting Stone's eye, I tilted my head towards up the stairs. He nodded before he took my hand and led me up the stairs while Brennan joined Lana on the steps.

His room was just as I remembered. One bed and a bookshelf and not a lot else. It was plain and it made it understandable why he wanted to sleep in my fairytale green room.

Before the giant hands could get hold of me, ran out of his grasp and jumped on his bed. I lay splat on my back like a pancake while staring up at the ceiling.

Stone remained where he was against the doorframe. He took up the whole space with his wide shoulders as he watched me with a chuckle.

Moving around on the sheets, I hummed my question "What do you think about while laying here at night?"

He moved towards means joined me on the bed. His hand roamed down from my hips to my butt before he lifted me and placed my body on top of his so that I was straddling him.

"I am never here anymore but before all I thought about was you." He rasped

"You will have to think of me here tonight." I took the opportunity to tell him about the situation with Lana "I'm sleeping over at Lana's."

He frowned up at me while putting a rogue piece of hair that had fallen onto my face behind my ear. He studied my face for a while before he moved his hands higher and higher.

Then he pulled me down so he could entrap my mouth with his own.

My eyes fluttered shut as he moved his mouth onto mine. The kiss was gentle yet incredibly hot. It felt inescapable like I was melting into him. He was tempting me, and I was letting him win because my hand reached and grabbed his shoulders while my lips begged for his touch.

I pulled away and whispered, "I am not changing my mind, Lurch."
