Italics is always Emily's thoughts
Chapter 1 - Wait
Emily and Ben are laying on the couch making out. Emily is under him while he is on top. The movie is forgotten considering it couldn't keep their interests at all hence them making out. Ben pulls away while biting his lip looking at Emily with lust in his eyes before asking her the question she is dreading, "Do you love me"? Emily looks at him with confusion over her face. Not the question i thought he was going to ask. Smiling slightly at him she answers his question unsure of where this conversation is leading.
"Of course I do, Ben. Why would you ask me that?" Emily answers waiting for him to answer her question now.
"Well you never wanna take our relationship to the next level. If you love me as much as you say, then why don't show me?" Ben asks with slight irritation in his voice. Here we go again. They have been debating this topic for the past month and Emily was getting tired of it. Rolling her eyes, she pushes Ben off her and on to the floor. Ben looks up at her with frustration, "We've been dating for a year and you won't even go down on me! I'm a guy Emily! I have needs!" Emily continues straightening out her clothes and starts gathering her stuff together. The mood is completely ruined because of his stupid question! Why couldn't he just go with the flow and see where it goes from there? No that would mean that he would actually know what he's doing and obviously he doesn't!
"It's always the same thing with you, Ben! Like really?! You have needs?! What about my needs?!" Emily says upset that they're having this conversation. Shaking her head, she grabs her phone and texts her best friend to see if she's home because she didn't want to stay at Ben's any longer. And she definitely couldn't go home because she told her mom that she was spending night with her so it would look bad if she went home now.
Ummm… Yea. You comin over now?
Yes! Thank God!
Emily heads over to the door. Ben finally realize that she was actually leaving gets up to stop her. "WAIT! Em wait please" He pleads with her before she opens the door. She turns around with her hand on the knob completely annoyed with the situation. Seeing that he has her attention, he walks over to her with a frustrated look, "I'm sorry. You just turn me on so much and it gets hard you know, not being able to get it down. I mean the only way for me to get it down is if we went all the way or close to it. I mean look at it now".
He points down at his pants. Emily rolls her eyes and glances down. I hope it gets bigger. Emily looks up at him and purses her lips, "Whatever. if you love me then you would wait. Call me when you figure out what you want". Emily opens the door and walks out heading to her car while Ben follows trying to plead his case with her. She gets in her car and Ben stops her from closing the door trying his luck one more time to have her stay with him.
"Wait wait wait. I'm a dick. I'm sorry. We can just watch movies and lay on the couch and cuddle all night. I'll keep my clothes on the whole time. Just don't go. Please", He's begging her now. Emily thinks about it for a moment and then feels her phone vibrate.
Ok… see you in a few. you owe me.
Emily looks down then looks up at Ben, "I'm sorry Ben, i gotta go. I can't be here with you right now". He nods and finally let go of the door so she can shut it feeling guilty of bring up the sex thing to her again, causing her to want to leave. Emily smiles a little at him before turning the car on and putting it in reverse. Ben walks back towards his house with his head down. He looks back one last time to see the back of Emily's car driving away. Frustrated he takes out his phone and texts someone. He receives a reply a minute later saying that she'll keep him company. He smiles a little even though he wanted take the next step with Emily but since she didn't want to yet, he can always find someone else to replace her with until she's ready.
