April Fools(22)

He smiled, "It's not my fault that you're so sexy."

I raised my eyebrow as I took hold of his hands and placed them against my breasts. I began to move them in slow circles, spreading the chocolate all over. I moaned, "Mmmmm, that feels so good."

He growled before conceding and looking down.

I let go of his hands, "I win!"

"In about ten seconds, you're going to be flat on your back while I lick every inch of your body clean. If anyone's a winner, it's me."

"We should play this game more often" I said as he threw me over his shoulder and carried me into the bedroom.

I sighed as I laid my head against his bare chest, "I wish I could stay the night."

"Then stay, we've still got half a tub of chocolate body paint left."

I laughed, "I don't want Brody to come over and kick your ass."

"He was cool about us when he came to see me."

I jumped up, "What? When?"

He grinned, "Don't look so worried. He came to see me this morning and we had a long chat."

"And?"

"And nothing. He's cool about it, he wants it to work out for us. We shook hands and everything." He smiled proudly, "I think he likes me."

"In that case, I'm staying the night. Why didn't you tell me before?"

"We were too busy with the chocolate."

An hour later, the rest of the body paint was gone.





Chapter Fifteen

I opened my eyes to see Isaac sat up in bed, reading. He must have been able to sense me looking at him because he grinned before turning to face me, "Good morning, gorgeous."

"Good morning, what are you reading?"

His eyes twinkled before he lifted up the book to show me. I sat up at lightning speed, "Beautiful Disaster?"

He shrugged, "I wanted to see what all of the fuss was about. You keep harping on about this Travis guy, I need to see who I'm up against."

Beautiful Disaster was my favourite book.

Isaac was my favourite person.

Put them together and it felt like I was in a novel.

A fantasy novel.

"When did you buy it?"

"A couple of days ago. I knew that it was one of your favourites so I wanted to replace it for you."

"You're the best boyfriend ever. How did you even remember what it was called?"

"I'm an awesome boyfriend with an awesome memory. And I might have had a little look on your Goodreads account."

My mouth dropped open, "You know what Goodreads is?"

He grinned, "Of course I know what it is."

"This just keeps getting better and better. So what are your thoughts on the book so far?" I laughed when he shrugged. "Are you jealous?"

He pouted, "No."

"Somebody's jealous" I sang. "You've got nothing to be jealous of, I love you way more than any book boyfriend."

"I should hope so, they can't cover you in chocolate body paint."

I took the book off him and placed it on the nightstand before climbing on top of him, "My reality is much better than any love story."

Isaac dropped me off at Lucy's on his way to work. I didn't have any classes for another hour so it gave me chance to get changed and pick my books up. I saw Brody's bike outside and wondered if he was going to be cool about me staying out last night. His text back had been short. I hung my coat up next to Lucy's before walking into the living room. Nobody was in there but I knew that someone was home because the shower was running. I went into my bedroom to get changed. Five minutes later, just as I was tying my converse, I heard a moan coming from the bathroom.

A female moan.

I opened my bedroom door and heard it again. There was definitely a woman in there. Just as I was about to go and investigate, Brody appeared, wearing only a towel. "Oh shit" he said, closing the door behind him.

I held my hand up and closed my eyes, "Please tell me that you haven't got a woman in there."

"I'm sorry, I didn't think you would be back until tonight. I thought you were going straight to class."

"Where's Lucy?"

"Um, she left about an hour ago."

"Brody, what were you thinking? This isn't our flat which means that you can't bring people here without asking Lucy first. You definitely can't have sex with random women in her shower. Are you trying to get us kicked out?"

"Of course not. I'm sorry, it won't happen again."

"You're damn right it won't." I nodded in the direction of the bathroom, "Tell her to get dressed and leave. If she's not gone in five minutes, I'm kicking her ass out."

He went to open the door but stopped and turned around, "Are you going to tell Lucy about this? I don't want it to be awkward."

"No, I won't tell her but if you ever bring somebody back here again, I'll kick you out myself."
