The next morning.
I woke up with my head snuggled up to Brax's chest with his bright eyes on me. "Morning" He whispered, kissing my forehead.
"Hi" I giggled. I heard Brax's front door open and before I knew it Heath was yelling through the apartment.
"So I fucked the youngest Buckton sister…and you got the other one" Heath smirked as he walked in on Brax and I in bed.
"Shit" I mumbled pulling the sheets over my torso. Heath just laughed before walking out of the room. I quickly got out of bed and put my underwear back on along with Brax's shirt. "You can not tell Ruby about this!" I said to Heath sternly as I followed him into the kitchen, Brax hot on my trail.
"So I'm not allowed to tell my girlfriend that her old sister is a hypocrite and is fucking my older brother?" Heath continued. "You are really something Charlotte!"
"Heath…" Brax mumbled, pushing his fingers through his hair.
"Please, I am begging you…she can't know. No body can!" I yelled.
"Fine, but as long as you let Ruby and I be!" Heath made the deal.
"Ok…fine!" I sighed in frustration as I went back into the bedroom and got the rest of my stuff.
"Do you want me to drive you home?" Brax asked, walking to t the front door.
"No, I should get straight to work" I replied sadly. Brax went to kiss me with Heath still watching. I turned away quickly only to receive a disappointed look from Brax and a pleased one from Heath. I quickly slipped on the rest of my clothes before heading across the road to work. I walked in only to find Ruby in my office pacing. "Don't start" She had that disapproving look.
"You stay out all night and don't even ring to tell me if you're alright…if it wasn't for Heath there to calm me down…"
"Oh congratulations to Heath! And is that what you call sex now…calming down?" I replied sarcastically. "Well if you'd like to know I had someone 'calm me down' last night as well" I snapped.
"Who?" Ruby sat down and wanted to know all the details.
"I don't know. Some random guy I met at the party" I lied.
"Well Heath was sweet and gentle and I think I love him Charlie" She sighed.
"Ruby, can you go daydream somewhere else, I have work to get on with…and speaking of work aren't you late?" I replied looking at my watch. She rolled her eyes before standing up and leaving. She was in love with the guy who knew one of my biggest secrets…how could I be ok with this?
Later that morning an unexpected visitor popped into my office. "Look Brax, I need you to leave. I have a client coming in 5 minutes and you are wasting my time" I snapped at him.
"Charlie, we really need to talk about this morning" He sighed frustrated.
"Well I'm busy at the moment if you want to talk to me you'll have to make an appointment" I smiled sarcastically as I opened the door for him. He just glared at me before heading out the door. I was so busy and tired, I suppose staying up most of the night with Brax didn't help. Once it got to my last client of the day I was so relieved. "Send Mr...Smith in" I told my assistant over the phone as I looked over my new client's case. The bright eyed familiar face walked in and looked at me.
"I did what you told me to do and made an appointment" Brax smirked at me.
"You are wasting my time" I replied angrily as I closed the door behind him and shut the blinds so Leah couldn't see us.
"Don't worry I paid for this hour I get with you…you wouldn't think I'd have to pay to get an hour alone to talk with my girlfriend" He said sarcastically.
"Your girlfriend…is that what I am now? I was perfectly happy with fuck buddy" I scoffed.
"Well what ever you are, we need to talk about this morning. I think it's time you told Ruby about us before Heath does" Brax suggested.
"Us? Brax, there is no us…we've had sex a couple of times, but we can not be together! Heath catching us was the start of everything that can go wrong with us being together!" I tried not to yell at him.
"So the talking last night, that was nothing? It meant nothing to you?" He asked angrily, standing up and yelling at me.
"Nothing" I lied.
"Bullshit Charlie!" Brax yelled, knocking stuff off my desk.
"Will you pick that up!" I demanded him.
"No!" He replied, being a smart arse, pushing more stuff off my desk.
"Pick it up now!" I tried to keep my cool.
"No" he smiled sarcastically, individually throwing down each one of the files on my desk. I shook my head and grabbed the phone.
"Leah, if you've finished all your work you can go home. I'll lock up. Before you do could you ring Ruby and tell her I might be home a bit late, Mr Smith's case is taking longer than expected" I said through the phone, still staring at Brax, who was now leaning over my desk.
"Sure thing Charlie…see you tomorrow" Leah replied before hanging up. I quickly hung up the phone, before throwing the rest of the stuff off my desk until there was nothing on it. Brax smirked before walking around and kissing me roughly, pulling apart my blouse so that my lace bra was revealed. "I love it when you're angry…we should have sex more often when you're angry" I panted as I hiked up my skirt before Brax pushed me down onto the desk. I smirked up at him as he took off his shirt and undid the fly to his black trousers.
"I want to try something" He whipped his 'weapon' out and started preparing himself. I bit my bottom lip as he pulled my legs so they were hanging over the desk. "Bra off" he demanded. I quickly ripped it off and laid back on the desk. Brax just stared at me. "Lift your arms above your head" He continued telling me what to do. He stared my body up and down.
"What are you doing?" I asked confused.
"Your tits look so perky when you do that" He gave a small smile before flicking over my underwear and getting straight into it while still standing up. I felt my eyes roll back into my head as Brax gripped my hips and kept thrusting into me deeply. I watched as Brax's face turned from anger to pure determination and joy in a matter of minutes. "Oh yeah…yeah…FUCK!" Brax grunted before smirking as I screamed his name as I came. Brax continued going as he finished just after me. "I love watching your face when we fuck" Brax smirked, pulling out and doing up his fly. "And your tits" He chuckled, throwing me my bra. I sat up completely exhausted and smiled.
"Glad you enjoyed" I chuckled also. I put my bra back on and pulled down my skirt as I got off the desk. My poor desk. "I can't believe we just fucked on my desk" I nearly gasped, looking at my files and stationary all over the floor. Brax started doing up his shirt before picking up some of the files. "Thanks" I mumbled as I picked up my laptop and stationary.
"So I pretty much just paid you for sex…so much for talking" Brax looked at me seriously. I shook my head and dragged my hands through my hair.
"I'm sorry ok…is that what you want to hear? I'm sorry. I don't know what to say that's going to make you feel better about this whole situation. I enjoyed talking last night…obviously not as much as I enjoy having sex with you, but when Heath walked in on us this morning, that scared me and I can't have anyone knowing what I'm doing with you" I replied frustrated.
"And what exactly would you define what we are doing as?" He asked a bit disappointed.
"We're fucking, shagging, having sex, sleeping together…nothing more. Pretty simple I think" I told him, straight to the point.
"Ok cool then, if that's what you want to do, fine. But just remember while you're just 'fucking', to me its something more" He replied still seriously as he walked out the door. I cleaned up the rest of my office before heading home in a very annoyed and miserable mood. As soon as I walked in the door I spotted Rubes and Heath on the couch practically having sex.
"Oh will you two get a room!" I yelled, walking into my bedroom and slamming the door.
"Charlie…are you alright? I'm sorry, I thought you were coming home later so I invited Heath over for dinner…" Rubes walked in.
"Dinner…what happened to the term 'calm down'?" I asked in a bitchy tone.
"Seriously what is your problem Charlie?" Ruby yelled at me as she walked out of my room. I followed her out to finish the screaming match.
"My problem is him!" I pointed at Heath.
"Really Charlie, you want to start this!" Heath snapped at me.
"Can't you just be happy for us?" Rubes pleaded with me. I just glared at Heath. "Are you jealous that I'm getting some and you're not?" Ruby tried to come up with situations that explained the way I was acting.
"Oh trust me…she's getting some!" Heath butted in.
"Don't you start!" I yelled at him.
"You slept with some random guy at the party last night…that is so unlike you and now you're angry cause I'm sleeping with my boyfriend?" Ruby tried to put together the pieces.
"So do you want to tell her or should I?" Heath stared at me.
"Please don't" I pleaded with him.
"It wasn't a random that Charlie slept with last night…" Heath started.
"Please Heath don't!" I yelled.
"Who was it?" Rubes questioned.
"It was no one" I mumbled. Heath shook his head. "You are just as bad as your brother" I glared at him, grabbing my coat before heading towards the front door.
"And of course you'd know" He said with a smirk as I slammed the door behind me. I went to the first place that would make me feel better. I knocked on the door slowly before a pair of beautiful eyes were revealed.
"If you've come here for a fuck, I'm not in the mood" Brax said bluntly.
"Do you want to get ice cream with me?" I spat out. Brax's facial expression was of confusion before he shook his head.
"Sure…I'll just get my wallet" He still looked puzzled. The walk was silent and awkward after today's fight in my office. "I see that you're still wearing the shoes" He chuckled, looking at my heeled feet.
"Yeah" I continued walking.
"What's up?" He stopped me by grabbing my hand and pulling me back to him.
"Rubes, Heath and I had a huge fight at home…I needed to get out of there" I sighed, looking at him quickly then back down to my feet.
"What was the fight about?" He asked curiously.
"You…well Ruby had no idea it was about you, but it was" I continued, pulling my hand away from his and continued walking towards the ice cream parlour. Brax followed me inside and continued looking at me weirdly. "Shit…I forgot my purse" I cursed, looking through all my coat pockets.
"Its fine Charlie…I'll pay" Brax stopped me. "What do you want?" He asked with a small smile.
"Thanks…surprise me" I replied softly, walking over to a booth. About a minute later Brax joined me and placed a big cup of ice cream in front of me.
"Rocky Road Sundae…you look like a sundae type of girl" I couldn't help but smile at the fact that this was exactly what I felt like.
"Thanks" I smiled as I dug in.
"So what did my dumb arse brother do this time?" Brax asked as he ate his strawberry ice cream in a waffle cone.
"Rubes was wondering what was up with me cause I snapped at her and then Heath got involved and pretty much threatened to tell her about…us" I told him delicately. "If anyone is to tell her about me and you, it would be me…not Heath but at the moment she doesn't need to know" I sighed and waited for Brax's reaction.
"OK then" he nodded and bit into the crunchy waffle cone. We continued eating in silence and eventually finished and went to leave.
"I don't want to go home" I sighed as we walked along the pavement.
"Don't then…come home with me" Brax whispered in my ear.
"I'm not in the mood for sex" I sighed.
"I don't mean for sex…we can just hang out can't we?" He asked awkwardly.
"Well…yeah I suppose so" I replied laughing at this sudden discovery.
"But it'll most likely end up in something sexual" Brax chuckled.
"Very true" I laughed as we made our way up to Brax's apartment.
"So what do you want to do?" Brax asked as we entered his apartment.
"Got any movies?" I asked casually.
"Yeah…in the cabinet over there…I'll make us some popcorn" Brax walked into the kitchen as I took off my coat and walked over to the dvd cabinet. I looked up and down before pulling out a rather unusual movie. Brax soon walked over with the popcorn and sat on the couch.
"Really Brax?" I chuckled showing him the dvd. He smirked as his eyes twinkled at me.
"You want to watch that do ya?" He laughed. I looked at the sexual position the couple on the dvd cover were making before thinking. "You're serious" Brax went wide eyed.
"No…no we can't…no sex tonight! It's my rule" I laughed putting the dvd back and grabbing an action movie for us to watch. I sat down next to Brax with a far amount of room between us in case of any sudden sexual urges. After about 2 hours the movie was over and the popcorn finished. I was practically asleep on Brax's sofa which led to him having to gently wake me up by carrying me to his room. He placed me down gently on the bed and looked at me.
"I don't want you to be alone tonight…you're staying with me. No sex" He gave me the deal.
"Ok" I replied softly before watching his strip down to his boxer briefs. He gave me one of his hoodies to wear and an old pair of sweatpants. He hopped into bed as I took off all my clothes. I could feel his eyes on me as I peeled off my bra and put on the hoodie, leaving the pants at the end of the bed. This would have been the first time I had slept in Brax's bed with out having sex…and it felt weird. We hadn't even kissed. I hopped into bed and pulled the covers over me before curling into a ball. "Brax…can you please just…hold me" I asked him with out even facing him. He didn't make a sound as his arms wrapped around my waist and his body immediately came in contact with mine. "Thank you" I whispered before closing my eyes.
