| Everyone had settled into bed after Tiffany had thanked Ms. Ingrid and made sure Colton was sleeping peacefully. "Hey no sleeping yet. You said when no young ears were around. Well here we are alone." She reminded him as she crawled into the bed and snuggled against him. "Oh yeah, come here." He pulled her closer if it was at all possible. "I was just happy that you called us we. I dunno just had a nice ring to it." A light pink took his cheeks. "Aawww how sweet. You are so cute." "I know, aren't I? Speaking of cute, no sexy, you should have seen yourself today after you kicked that chick's ass." "You are so weird. I didn't want to do it. I didn't even hurt her till she tried me first, and I don't consider one punch 'kicking her ass'." "I know, but you had her pinned on the car. You looked so ...... in control and confident. I almost hopped out of the car and tore your clothes off. But I didn't want to interrupt you." "Then what's stopping you now?" Her flirty tone took him by surprise and he pulled her to rest on top of him. "Nothing." She looked over at the clock. Seven, good I have to get everything together. Ok, shower, get dressed, set everything up, ..... She went through a mental checklist of the days activities. She quietly got out of bed and went into the closet then picked up the outfit they had bought together then took a quick shower. He reached across the bed to find she was already gone. He pulled himself from the bed and to the closet to get his clothes. He stumbled sleepily into the bathroom then stripped off his clothes. As soon as he got into the shower he was more awake than he had ever been. "Sorry, I wasn't thinking, I was still asleep. But not anymore." He said looking her up and down, then she turned so her back was facing him. "Wash my back, since you had to be here, you are doing some work." She handed him a loofa and he started to run it across her back. When he was done she rinsed herself and stepped out of the shower, leaving him to shower in peace. Once she was dressed and her hair was dry, she woke Colton to give him a bath and get him dressed. As soon as he was completely ready, she sent him to the kitchen to enjoy the breakfast she had made and set at the table. After making sure Joey and Lucy were up, she went into the back yard to give orders to a few people setting up, then returned to the kitchen to join everyone else for breakfast. "Well good morning busy body." Justin scooted his chair a little closer to the one she was settling herself into. "Good morning." She kissed his cheek lightly then looked around the table. "How'd everyone sleep?" "You all match." Colton didn't give anyone a chance to respond, he had just noticed that they did infact match. "You were with us when we bought our outfits." Lucy motioned between her and Joey. "Yeah, but you all have the same pants on." "Oh yeah we do. You didn't get to see mine and Justin's last night." "When does the party start?" Joey was already abondoning his chair. "Two." Lucy was soon joining him for he was pulling her arm. "You want to go somewhere with me real quick?" A sly grin took his face, and he asked as if it mattered. "Sure, where?" "You'll see." They were gone without another word. "Ok, that was strange." Justin looked at the closed door that led to the living room as if it would tell him where they went. "Yeah, wonder where they are going?" "The bedroom perhaps." "Not in front of Colton." "I mean to umm take a nap." He tried to recover but it didn't matter Colton wasn't paying attention to them. He was already wondering off to the dance studio. "I have a hunch, I mean it's just a guess, but I think he may like that room." "You think?" "You know what room I like?" He stood to meet her at the sink, where she was rinsing the breakfast dishes. "The bedroom?" "Yeah wanna go there now?" He put his arms around her waist as she turned. "Oh yeah baby." She pried herself from his arms then ran from the room without another word. When he found her she was laying on the bed with her eyes closed. "I don't see why you like this room so much." "I do." "You must be lazy, I mean your favorite room is the one where you sleep." She felt him join her on the bed, then his breath hit her face as he hovered inches above it. Soon his lips met hers, and his hand found her thigh. "That's why this is my favorite room." "You can kiss me like that in any room of the house." She threw her arms around his neck, then nuzzled her head into his chest. "I know, I just like this room, okay?" With a helpless look, he begged her playfully for reassurance. "I love you." "Love you too." He stood and flipped through the radio stations on the bedside radio until he found a slow song, then pulled her from the bed into his arms. "What gave you this wild itch?" She swayed with him to the music. "It felt so good to dance with you last night I wanted to do it again." "You are a sweetie." She laid her head on his shoulder letting her eyes close to fully enjoy the moment. Soon they heard Joey and Lucy talking, and pulled away from each other to investigate. "So where'd you go?" Tiffany, followed by a very reluctant Justin, entered the living room. "To the mall. We got Colton pants like ours." Pride exhumed Joey's face as he pulled the pants from the bag to show everyone. "Where'd you find his size?" Justin held the pants against his body, examining the size difference. "We didn't, we got the smallest guys size and had them tailored. Where is he?" "In the dance studio." Tiffany pointed toward it as if they didn't know the way, then tried to follow them, but Justin pulled her back. "You can't get away from me that easily." He pulled her against his chest to dance once more, humming lightly. "Who said I wanted to?" |
