"Cayden...why are you in here?" I asked while walking towards him in the rather large pantry, I realized he swallowed what ever is in his mouth and smiled timidly. "Did you sneak into my pantry and are you eating...." I looked behind him to see an open box of Oreos, "my Oreos?!" I said feigning shock.
He just smiled and walked towards me and handed me the Oreos, "You want some? They are delicious...." He said as I grabbed an Oreo. We both have had a thing for these cookies ever since we were kids. He had a smirk on his face the entire time. There was something about him that was just so sexy. But no! I told myself, that was a long time ago. So I grabbed a cookie and twisted it open and ate the icing.
I then closed it and smirked at him, what?! If he can have fun so can I. "Well?" I said to him, taking another step towards him, we were now so close that our bodies were brushing. And I knew it had an effect on him like it did on me. He smiled and moved the strand of hair hanging in my face and placed it behind my ear. He then grabbed the cookie and popped it into his mouth. I smiled and backed off.
"You still remember?" he asked while grabbing another cookie and handing it to me so I could eat the inside. We were now sitting on the ground and across from each other with the box of cookies in the middle.
"Of course I do! I still hate the cookie."
"And I still hate the icing...you know we make a great couple." He said. My face flushed at his comment, and he instantly changed it. "I mean as friends...." He said again awkwardly.
I just smiled. We sat there both for a second, quietly. We both were unsure of what to say. It has been almost four years since we really just talked. I mean we saw each other in family and group occasions. But we both made a point to stay away from each other.
I mean after what happened it was pretty awkward. A three-four year difference is a lot...especially to my parents. And what happened that night is long forgotten and will never happen again.
"Hey stand up." He said while pulling himself off the ground. He stood up and brushed the cookie crumbs off his legs. He then held out his hands to me to help me up, this made me smile. I remembered when we were younger and I would never want to stand up unless I had some one pull me up.
I always liked the feeling of someone having me in their hands. And Cayden was always the one to pull me up. As he pulled me up I let out a slight chuckle. And when I looked at Cayden I knew he was recalling the same memory.
We both stood there for a second my hands in his, and then he pulled away. When his hands left mine a rush of cold air hit my body. Our bodies were close and I was starting to get kind of nervous. He placed his hands lightly on my shoulders and turned me around so I wasn't facing him anymore.
I could feel his hot breath on my neck making me shiver. His hands then traced lightly on my back, I had to bite my lip just so a low moan wouldn't escape my lips. What was happening right now was so wrong and extremely inappropriate...but I couldn't help but like it and want more of it.
His soft but lightly calloused fingers swept my hair to one side. His left hand then was in front of me his fist balled around something. Then a flash of silver dropped in front of me. Then hanging in front of me was a necklace.
It had a silver chain; the chain was thin and shinning brightly in the light. Then dangling from the chain was a silver, heart shaped lock it. And placed in the middle of the heart was a blue sapphire. Cayden knew I loved sapphires. I mean I loved diamonds and...emeralds. Which caused me to gaze down at my long slender fingers to see John's ring he gave me.
