"I-uh..." Before she can explain, Ben's door swings open. He emerges, shirtless. 763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQMCzjc5Zz6
"What the fuck do you want, Red?" He rubs the back of his neck, his muscles rippling with the movement. I tear my eyes away, before Vanessa can catch me starting. It was incredibly difficult. Seriously, I'm like a freaking saint right now.763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXOHl5mjWuW
"I thought..." Her eyes move back and forth between us. "Nevermind. Where were you, Katarina? I was worried sick!"763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ21H97nOQOn
"I couldn't find you, and I drank too much, so I just went and laid down in the spare room since I knew it was empty." I hope it sounds convincing.763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyaqXoQXtz4
"Oh ok. You just disappeared, so I didn't know..." Her eyes dart to Ben. I give a subtle head shake, to reassure her. "Okay, well... do you need to go then?" She glanced at him again. 763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡckUYStfTH8
She knows I'm not comfortable being around him and it's mostly thanks to her that I've been able to avoid him as much as I have. 763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6EbqsIZLb5
She's been very understanding and I've really appreciated it, but I am so glad all of that is over. 763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEcPlMxXVy7
"Well, if that's all. Fuck off, Red." Ben returns to his room, slamming the door in my face. My mouth is hanging open, but I can't stop myself.763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtWIUJd4mra
What just happened? 763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD6ek0XD0Wa
"Wow." 'Ness looks at me sympathetically before pulling me into a hug. "Sorry, girlie. I know you are avoiding him, but I didn't know what to think when I couldn't find you."763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfHViqTfv3O
I can't focus on what she's saying. What did I do? Crap, does this mean the deal is off? 763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzJyrIHJISH
I kinda wish I had his number so I could ask him what is going on.763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgpOSwNnpVO
I pull out of her hug. I need to see him before we leave. "Yeah, I'm just gonna run to the bathroom real quick. Be right back."763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGHJx3IdDHz
"Okay, hurry up so we don't run into the playboy again." I immediately lock the bedroom door and head into the bathroom.763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc8y8ObTvZ8
He's leaning against the sink, with his head bowed. Was he waiting for me?763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEiPf5dBTBz
He looks up, realizing I'm there. "Kat. Oh thank god, I'm glad you came back. I am so sorry for that." He steps forward to wrap his arms around me. "I figured it would be best to keep up appearances until we figure out how to break the news in a convincing way. I don't think she suspects anything, do you?"763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhG9GRWrbjh
He hasn't stopped talking long enough for me to say anything, I open my mouth to expand, but he keeps going. He releases me from the hug, but doesn't step back. 763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGjVqFTi6w6
"I thought you would be pissed. Oh man, I thought for sure you would go full on hurricane. Red probably wants to kill me. We need a really good way to come out. Something big, but everyone has to believe it. Do you have any ideas?"763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKgRD8DrVdG
The only thing I can get out before he continues is "Hurricane?" But, I don't even think he heard me.763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjnd01GUwlw
"I had a few ideas, but I don't think they are grand enough. We need a grand gesture." I have to stop him, I told Vanessa I would hurry and if I don't, she will come get me.763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS3Vnv68gFv
"Ben. I need to go. Are you okay?" I place my hand on his cheek. He leans into my touch and closes his eyes, relaxing instantly. 763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3XBK0rhS7G
"I'm fine. Just got a little amped up, I think. Sorry about that." Should I be worried?763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYIZIGb1n8d
"Listen, I know this is for you, but I was wondering if maybe I could tell my mom we're dating, just to get her off my back? If not, that's totally okay." He wants to tell his mom? 763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT4fbimQYS2
"Uh... Sure. Yeah, of course. That will seem more realistic anyway."763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVcNr1AkMFl
"Okay, great. Thanks, Kat. You're the best." He gives me another hug. 763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQFJcrmbRxP
"I really should get going." I pull away, walking towards the door.763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdKxq3UtdQh
"Hey, wait!" He whispers loudly. "Let me see your phone real quick."763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM42pRZtLlf
I hand it over without question. What's the worst he can do?763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLX9ep3hJtc
He hands it back and turns to leave without a word. 763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXzV0c0eK5T

I look at my phone. 763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgoERkRWeQP
Me: Hello, Handsome.763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYwqnD1OWwP
He must have sent a text to his own number, so it looks like I said it to him. I roll my eyes. Conceited, much?763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlDp7u1ZKTe
I feel a buzz and look at the phone in my hand. I can't hide the smile that over takes my face.763Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaVncuoNcR7
