It's Complicated

Chapter Seven

I opened my eyes to Levi, who now had his head on my chest and his arm wrapped around me, a totally different position than how we had fallen asleep. I passed my hand through his silky hair. I couldn't believe that I had actually spent the night with Levi. This was another first for me, and to my amazement it felt exactly like it had looked like in the movies. I expected that I would have at least been a little uncomfortable but that was not the case,everything with Levi came so natural. I looked down again at Levi who was fast asleep and I knew that he had felt as comfortable as I did. My mind wondered on him confessing his feelings to me last night. I didn't know how to react to the whole situation, it wasn't that I didn't like him ,I did, but to know for a fact that he felt so strongly towards me was a different story. I had to many questions; why did he decide to tell me now? Why me? Why now? What was I supposed to do? Then there is the Cassie factor. Is he going to stop having sex with her? Are we going to be a fling? Are we going to be a real couple? Am I ready to have a boyfriend? What does one even do with a boyfriend? I had no idea how to process this whole thing.

Levi jumps up in fright as we both hear a knock on the door.

"Hey Levi," my brother called out from the other end of the door. "I need to borrow some socks dude," Levi and I looked at each other in surprise, Stanley couldn't find out what was going on between us, hell we didn't even know what was going on between us. "Levi wake up, I need to leave this house," my brother knocked on the door harder, he tried to turn the knob but the door was locked; thankfully.

"Let me put on some clothes," Levi called out to him ,trying to buy us some time to think of a hiding spot.

"Hurry up dude, it's not like I haven't seen it before," Stanley laughed. Levi laughed forcefully, the both of us frantically trying to figure out how we could not get caught. I pulled the cover over my head. I figured if Stanley couldn't see my face, he would have just thought that it was Cassie or some other girl. I couldn't see but soon after I did that Levi opened the door so I assumed that he picked up on what I was trying to do.

"Took you long enough," Stanley laughed and tried to barge into the room. "Oh shit, sorry I didn't realize that Cass was here," Levi smiled. Then he went to the draw to get a pair of socks for Stanley.

"Well if you could excuse me." Levi stated as he handed the socks to Stanley.

"Thanks bro," Stanley said as Levi started to shut the door. "oh hey, have you seen my sister?"

"Uhmm no," Levi lied "why? what's up?"

"I thought she slept here last night, she's not in her room but her phone is there."

"I guess she just forgot it."

"Probably, okay well later."

"Later," Levi replied as he shut the door and locked it again. We both sighed in relief as I took the cover off of my head. I looked at Levi and we both erupted into laughter.

"Cover over your head? That's the best you could come up with?" He laughed

"Hey don't judge me, at least I thought of something. If it was up to you, we would have been answering to Stanley right now," I exclaimed.

"You think that he would have a problem with us?" he said as he joined me on the bed, pulling me into his arms.

"Is there an us?" I asked confused.

"There can be," he played with a strand of my hair, "if we want it too."

"I don't know Levi there are a lot of things to consider."

"Like what?"

"Like, for instance, I never had a boyfriend before , I don't know if my brother would be okay with this , I thought Josie liked you, that's a betrayal of girl code and let's not forget Cassie and maybe a number of other girls that you are possibly sleeping with," I stated. Levi laughed.
