Baby Blues

13. Sleep Over

By the time Kevin was done I was half way through with my apple and watching an interesting movie. I hated it when apples were too big to finish. Hannah and I called them plus sized apples

I put my half eaten apple on the side table next to me with plans of finishing it after taking a shower. I had no intention of wasting a perfectly good apple. Kevin walked into the living room while drying his hair in sweat pants and a loose fitting tee that left nothing to the imagination. I could see the outline of his muscles each time the shirt touched his skin as he tried to dry his hair.

The first thing that went through my mind was running my hands all over his smooth skin from his chest down his stomach following that happy trail down to his...

"Are you done" he asked snapping me out of my thoughts

"What?" I looked at him feeling a little dazed

I realised that Kevin was looking at me with the 'knowing look' in his eyes... like he knew exactly what I was thinking about making me blush. Thank god it doesn't show as much as Hannah due to the difference in skin colour, the girl becomes as red as a tomato.

Thankfully he didn't press the matter

"You can go and take a shower there is a shirt for you on the bed"

"Thanks" I said rushing past him and into the bedroom.

There wasn't any female body wash which I was grateful for because frankly that would be weird. I brushed my teeth with a spare toothbrush and took a quick shower making sure not to get water into my hair, the last thing I needed was a stubborn head of hair.

I found a white long sleeved shirt on the bed just as he said and there was a pair of clean boxers next to it. I put on the shirt and it reached mid thigh so I didn't really see the point of putting on the boxers. I rolled up the sleeves and tied my hair properly. I looked at my face in the mirror focusing on the few spots I had on my caramel skin

I got to the living room with my phone and found Kevin talking to someone on his. I texted Hannah saying that I wouldn't be coming home so that she didn't get worried and put the phone on the side table where I expected my apple to be.

I started looking around and even went back to the room just to make sure that I hadn't left it there but I didn't find it. I went back to the living room and tried to retrace my steps but it all pointed to the table.

Kevin walked in from the kitchen and threw himself on the couch

"Much better?"

"Yeah" I said a little distracted still looking for my apple

"Are you hungry?"

"No" I said shaking my head

I went to the kitchen and even checked the fridge but I still couldn't find it

Where the hell did I put it?

Hannah always told me that had a terrible short term memory and I was starting to believe her. I went back to the living room looking around and noticed Kevin giving my an eye

"Are you looking for something?"

"Yes actually my apple. I'm pretty sure I left it on the table but I can't find it"

"I threw it away" he said flatly

"What... why?"

"Because it was on the table"

He said it like the reason he threw it away was so obvious. Who throws something away just because someone left it out in the open and unattended to?
