Brother's best friend

HOME(98)

-Are you okay with sharing a room with me? -Carlos asked almost as a whisper.

-It's okay, don't worry.

The receptionist gave you the keys and went up to the rooms. The room of Charles and Charlotte was just across yours.

You got into the room and left your suitcase next to the couch. You didn't want to unpack yet.

You sat on the couch and crossed your legs. Carlos sat next to you. He grabbed your legs and placed them on top of his.

-How are you? -he asked.

-I'm good, better than last time we saw each other. -you looked away. You felt embarrassed just remembering the last time you talked to Carlos.

-Are you planning on moving to Germany?

-I don't know, I mean, Alan is great and Puma's HQ is there but Monaco is my home.

-Just do whatever your heart desires. -he caressed one of your legs. It was an intimate moment, his touch didn't bother you, in fact, you missed it, you missed him. -Let's go to the pool.

-Let me just unpack. -you got up. You took everything out from your suitcase and ordered it. You got into the bathroom and changed your clothes to a light blue bikini. When you got out, Carlos was already wearing his swimsuit. You smiled at him and got out of the room. You knocked on Charles' room and Charlotte opened.

-Do you want to go to the pool with us? -you asked. She looked at you and then at Carlos, she smirked and raised her eyebrows.

-Go ahead, we'll catch up with you guys.

-Okay. -you replied and went down to the pool with Carlos. You left the towel on the floor and got into the pool. Carlos did the same thing.

You were thinking about what Carlos said, "do what your heart desires". You knew exactly what your heart wanted and it seemed like you had a chance now. You were single, Carlos was single too, you were in good terms. You thought about it but you just needed to find the right time and place to say something, you didn't want to screw anything up.

-What's on your mind? -Carlos asked as he approached you.

-Nothing. -you lied. -Just enjoying the weather.

-I saw you talking to Lando the other night. -he looked down.

-He apologized again and I forgave him, it was time to close that deal, you know? I'm done with the drama, I'm done with having bad blood with anyone.

-So everything is good between you?

-Yeah, we're friends again. -you smiled. You thought that probably Carlos was jealous because you talked to Lando at the club, you wanted him to know you're just friends now and everything is good. You liked the idea of Carlos being jealous, that meant he still cares.

-What about Pierre? -he asked as he stood in front of you.

-What's with all the questions? -you laughed.

-Just catching up with you. -he ran a hand through his hair. He looked hot, the sun was making his wet body shine. His hair was wet and pulled back.

-Pierre and I are just good old friends, nothing more, I haven't talked to him in a while. -you looked away, if you kept looking at him, you were afraid the urge of kissing him might win. Carlos approached you and your heart started beating very fast. He leaned towards you. You closed your eyes, enjoying his body glued to yours and opened them suddenly when you felt how he grabbed you under your ass and lifted you in the air, making you spin. You hugged him by the neck out of inertia. You lowered your face to the top of his head and started laughing.

-Carlos, put me down! -you yelled. -I'm getting dizzy. -he stopped and put you down, without letting you go. He tuck a strand of hair behind your ear, your eyes were locked. He had a flirtatious smile on his face. You licked your lips, nervous. He brought his face closer to yours. He put one of his hands on the back of your neck and the other on your hip, caressing you. You ran a hand over his chest, going down to his marked abdomen. You ran the other hand through his hair. Carlos began to shorten the distance between you. You felt that your heart was going to come out of your chest. Desperate, you pulled him by the neck, meeting your lips with his. At first the kiss was soft but the intensity began to increase after a few seconds. He leaned you against the wall of the pool. You hugged his hips with your legs. His lips tasted like sunscreen and coffee. You just separated to get some air. You needed each other, you kissed as if the world was about to end.

Carlos pulled away from you, looking at your eyes. He was blushing and you thought you were too. You smiled when you saw him smile and you felt like you were at home, Carlos was home.

-We'll need to talk. -he said as he gave you a warm kiss on your cheek.
