The Temptress
Sitting in the Suarez lounge room, Betty and Gio were enjoying each other's company as they watched movies and ate popcorn all night long.
It was getting late and Gio went to leave. However, standing up was an issue; he couldn't move because of Betty.
"B, I have to get up; but I can't quite do that if your legs are on top of my lap!" said Gio as he tried to move her legs to the side.
Giving him puppy dog eyes and pouting, Betty reluctantly swung her legs to the side of the sofa, and answered, "Fine, have it your way."
The last thing Gio wanted was for Betty to be upset. Shuffling across the couch to get closer to Betty, he put his arm around her shoulders and said to her softly, "B, I've been here since three in the afternoon and it's now one in the morning! We need to go to sleep and I have to go home before the snow starts to fall heavier." He kissed her temple, then stood up and put his jacket on.
Walking towards the door, Betty said, "You could always stay the night, y'know?!"
Stunned by her comment, Gio froze; all he could do was continue to follow her to the front door with his eyes. She reached the door and turned her head, flashing him a cheeky smile.
Upon opening the door and taking a look outside, Betty said half surprised, "Oh look at that! The snow is too thick to drive in!"
Before having a chance to turn around and look back at Gio, he was already behind her, holding onto her waist and looking over her shoulder. Betty looked up at him as he spoke.
"You're right Suarez! I get it now…You planned to keep me here as long as possible so that I couldn't leave! Well, then I guess I've got no other choice than to stay the night!"
Looking down and meeting her gaze, he continued speaking, "Only if the offer still stands?!" drawing his face closer to hers.
Closing her eyes, Betty awaited the imminent kiss; but instead felt his warm breath on her lips as he whispered huskily; "You're teasing me Suarez!"
Spinning her around to face him properly, he pulled her in close and kissed her with force. Coming out of the embrace, Betty slowly opened her eyes and muttered seductively, "No, this is teasing!" Then she turned and ran up the stairs to her room, Gio following closely behind.
