Scotty and Lilly went home, both thinking about it incessantly. Finally the truth had come out, they had both confessed that they have thought about the other as more than friends, much more than friends.
Scotty was restless, pacing around his apartment, pondering his next move. Should there even be a next move? he wondered or should they keep things the same, not risking their friendship and partnership. Now that he knew she wanted to kiss him he didn't know if he would ever be able to not think about it.
Lilly ran a bath and relaxed into it, her mind drifting to Scotty. The man was undeniably gorgeous, those dark eyes made her melt. She had finally admitted out loud that she wanted to kiss him, had for years but was it worth the risk? She wondered what would happen if they crossed the line. What did she want to happen?
Her phone vibrated "Whatcha doin?" his text said.
"Taking a bubble bath" she replied, smirking, knowing that was gonna drive him crazy.
His breath caught in his throat as he stared at her response, the image of Lil naked in a bubble bath invaded his head and he instantly knew he'd have given just about anything to be there.
"You'd smack the crap outta me for the mental image in my head right now" he replied when he brain was able to function again.
Lil smiled to herself, her response had just the effect on him she had hoped.
"You thinkin' about me naked Valens?" she teased.
"What if I am?" he responded.
There was no response from Lil, Scotty paced his apartment, constantly checking his phone for a response, worried he'd gone too far and freaked her out.
"Fuck!" he cursed himself and threw his phone at the couch before sitting on it and putting his head in his hands.
A few minutes later there was a soft knock at the door. Scotty answered the door, wearing only black Nike shorts that came to his knees.
"Lil" he greeted her, surprised to see her there.
She looked him up and down, her heart racing at the sight of his exposed muscular body. She always figured he had a nice body but the previously conjured images had nothing on the reality that was Scotty.
He watched her, enjoying that she was checking him out.
"You always answer the door half naked?" she grinned devilishly.
"I wasnt exactly expectin' company" he said.
"So you want me to go?" she asked, messing with him and turning to go back out the door that was still open.
"No" he answered quickly. "Come in, I'll get a shirt" he said stepping aside to let her in.
"That's okay, I don't mind at all" she grinned looking him up and down again.
He stared at her, deciding this was it. He shut the door behind her and stepped closer to her, closing the space between them, backing her up against the door.
"I think about kissing you all the time" he said softly, their faces just inches apart, she could feel his warm breath on her face.
"We shouldn't, work" she said, watching him intently.
"But you want to" he whispered, coming closer still.
"Have to" she whispered back, staring into his eyes, and putting her hands on his waist.
"You sure?" he asked, running his left hand over her cheek.
She nodded slightly and closed her eyes. He closed his eyes and leaned down, their lips met softly, she moved her hands up his bare back, pulling him closer. He wrapped his right arm around her waist and pulled her against him, holding her close as they kissed deeply.
They slowly broke the kiss. Scotty grinned happily "Okay?" he asked
"She smiled back at him "I think my knees actually went weak" she sighed.
"Well we cant have that" he said, bending down and picking her up. She wrapped her legs around his waist and her arms around his neck as he moved her back against the wall as they continued to kiss passionately.
