Hey! Here's chapter 2! Things will get heated! ;)
Chapter 2
LIZ'S POV
This place is really beautiful. I'm watching at the breathtaking view outside the window, with my forehead against the cold glass. It started snowing just as soon as I got here. Now the front yard is almost covered with soft white snow and the sky has a dark blue color, even if it's only 6pm. I still can't believe everything that's happening. I will shoot a movie, I'm in Canada and the most important, I'm staying with Avan.
After lunch, Avan's mom and dad went out shopping for a few things they needed before leaving for London. They're flying tomorrow morning. So, I guess, I'll be alone with Avan for 4 days the least and I don't really know how I feel about it. It wasn't awkward so far. I saw his parents after a long time and I had seriously forgotten how great is spending time with them. They are great people and they seem to like me back.
Well, I don't know if what I'm doing here is wrong or right, but I enjoy the fact that I got to see Avan and hang out with him. I may have a crush on him, but that doesn't mean he's not one of my best friends. I should bear in mind though, that I have a boyfriend back home. A boyfriend to whom I talked to a few minutes ago.
"Hey, what are you thinking?" Avan asked me bringing me back to reality.
"Oh, nothing...Just how much I've missed you!" I said in a sweet voice and turned to face him, which was a BIG mistake. He was standing a few inches away from me, looking gorgeous with his long dark hair in a messy ponytail, a long-sleeved t-shirt in the perfect shade of red and a pair of jeans. He stared at me with his chocolate brown eyes and I melted.
"Really?" He raised his eyebrow in disbelief and I nodded trying to escape from his gaze. "You can tell me..." He nodded to follow him at the dark brown couch.
"Well, I was thinking of everything that's happening in my life... I mean the movie, Canada, coming over here..." I said as I sat next to him cross-legged.
"Don't tell me you regretted staying at my house." He told me really worried.
"No silly, even if that's not right..."
"Come on, don't say it again! I told you you're welcomed here." He tried to make me feel better.
"I know Avan, but it's not just that...Did you tell Zoey I'm here?" I almost whispered and hesitated to say her name out loud. Avan glanced at me and stayed quiet for a minute.
"No... But she's nothing to do with it. With you. You're my friend. I care about you and that will never change." He answered and grinned shyly at me. I grinned back at him but my laugh immediately vanished when he asked me another question.
"Have you told Mike? You're dating right?" He seemed a little hurt and disgusted talking about him.
"Um...yes... I told him and yes, we're dating. I didn't ask for his permission or something. I just informed him..." I stopped to look at him.
" Do you love him?" He asked. Well, that's a question I wasn't expecting for sure. How could he ask me something like that? Of course I care about him. I like him too, he's a good guy, but...we've never said 'I love you' and I don't feel like it.
"Do you love Zoey?" I turned this around him without answering his question.
"I asked you first." He finally said after a minute of silence. I started thinking. What if Avan likes me the way I like him? What if he's asking me to find out if my relationship with Mike is something...serious?
"No." I simply said. Avan looked at me shocked and I could see he felt a bit relieved?!
"Same...No." He replied and now I was shocked. Then why is he with her? I'm not the right person to ask that, because obviously I'm with someone I don't love (with the exact meaning of the word 'love'). So now what? What am I supposed to say?
AVAN'S POV
She really said she doesn't love him! I have to do something. The fact that she told me may mean something. Maybe she wants me to know that, because she likes me! God, I wish I knew! If I never try, though, I'll never know...and I wanna know so badly.
I took her hand in mine and leaned closer to whisper in her ear.
"I've missed you." I could feel her shiver when I bit her earlobe gently and kissed the spot right under her ear. She placed her free hand on my shoulder to bring me closer. I didn't know what I was doing and probably she didn't either. I started kissing her neck roughly and she left out a moan. I was basically on top of her on the couch, now. She stopped to look at me and was about to kiss my lips, when we heard the door open. We immediately stood up, fixed our clothes and sat back on each edge of the couch.
"Guys, We're home." My mom walked in the living room looking suspicious. "Hey!" She smiled. "How's everything?"
"Great! Thanks for everything, ms Jogia." Liz said quickly trying to seem normal. Wow! She's a great actress. A minute ago she was moaning and pulling me close to her and now she acts like we were casually hanging in my house.
"Oh! Don't thank me, dear. I should thank you. Look how happy my kid is! Right Avan?" My mom pointed at me and Liz giggled.
"Um, yes! I'm really happy you're here Liz." I smiled at her and she gave me a sexy grin, that I couldn't stand. I just wanted more of her now.
"I bet you are..." She joked in a seductive tone my mom didn't seem to get. "I'm happy to be here too." Liz stared at me for a while and I couldn't look anywhere else except her gorgeous blue-green eyes. We broke eye contact when my dad came in holding some bags.
"Hello kids!" he greeted us and stood next to my mother. We said hello and I tried to break the awkward silence.
"So mom, what time is your flight again?" I asked her.
"11 am... isn't it, darling?" She asked my dad.
"Yes! We have to leave from here around 9... So, you have to be careful here. Don't forget to lock the door, drive safe and in case of a snowstorm stay inside the house. Right honey?" My dad turned to my mom.
"Yes, that's right! The fridge is full! So don't worry for anything."
"We won't! We're ok." I said to them and got off the couch. They left to take care of their stuff and left me and Liz alone. " Liz, I didn't show you your room yet. Come on!" I offered her my hand. She took it and stood up.
"Yeah! I also want to take a shower!" She said. I show her the rest of the house and then her room.
"Aww...Avan this room is so beautiful and the bed is all I need right now..." She said falling on the bed.
"What?" I tried to sound ridden. "All you need is a bed? What about me?" I leaned back on the door. She sat up on the bed looking at me.
"We'll see..." She approached me. "If you're a good boy..." She placed her finger on my chest and started drawing imaginary patterns. I couldn't restrain myself so I wrapped my arms around her waist. We stayed like this for a while.
"Avan?" Liz looked up at me. "What is this? I mean...What are we doing?" She asked in a whisper. I didn't know what to tell her so I told her the truth.
"I..I don't know. The only thing I know is that I love it that you're here..." I kissed her forehead and she hugged me without saying a word. Once more today, my mom interrupted us. Although, this time she saw us hugging.
"Um... Sorry...I didn't want to interrupt you...I just brought some towels for Liz." My mom said to Liz.
"Oh Don't worry! You didn't! Thanks." Liz said gently taking the towels.
"Do you need anything else, dear?" My mom asked her.
"No. No, I don't!" Liz smiled at my mother and she smiled back before leaving.
"Ok, that was awkward!" I whispered to Liz and she started laughing.
"It was." She admitted.
"I think I should probably show you where the bathroom is, now." I took her hand again and she left a kiss on my cheek.
What do you think? Review to let me know! Thanks for reading!
