Chapter 14

Melissa and I got to John's place within fifteen minutes. It would have taken longer if I would have walked, which was how I got around mostly and did most of the time before I got my new car. I found a place to park on the side of the building.

"You have keys to his place?" Melissa asked as I unlocked the main door of the building.

"Yes, I do," I said.

"You two have only been together for three months."

"A relationship is not built on the length of time a couple is together, but on the foundation the couple has built in the relationship. John and I have built a better good foundation thus far."

Melissa didn't say anything. We just made our way up the three flights of stairs to John's apartment. There was an elevator, but I didn't mind climbing the stairs. I was getting my exercise for the day.

We got to the door of John's apartment. I put my key into the lock and unlocked the door. I then opened the door.

"Patricia and Melissa have arrived," I shouted, walking inside.

"All right, all right," John said. He got up from the sofa in the living room and walked over to me. Melissa closed the door and she relocked it. I took my coat off.

"Hello beautiful," John said, kissing me. I wrapped my arms around his neck. His arms wrapped around my waist, bringing me closer to him.

"Thanks, Trish and John," Melissa said. "You have given me an idea of something to do with Sean."

John and I both pulled apart and looked at my sister.

"Sure, whatever," I said. "You're right about being an adult. Hell, you're twenty-one years old. You can drink legally."

I grabbed John's hand and lead him over to the sofa. Melissa followed. John wrapped his arm around me as we sat down. Melissa took a seat next to Boog on the other part of the L-shaped sofa.

"So what do you want to watch?" John asked.

"Do you have any Christmas movies?" I asked.

"Oh, you're ready for Christmas now?"

"Yes, I am."

"Sounds good. Yes, I have a couple Christmas movies. I have the remake of How the Grinch Stole Christmas with Jim Carrey, A Christmas Story, which consists of the 'pink nightmare' and a Red Ryder BB gun, and then I also have Christmas Time in South Park."

"Oh, Christmas Time in South Park. I love Mr. Hankey the Christmas Poo," I said.

"You got it," John said. He got up and went into his entertainment center to find the movie.

I looked over at Melissa and Boog. They were talking and laughing. Well, they were more so whispering and laughing. I couldn't help but grin.

John soon found the DVD and put into the player. He then sat back down on the sofa with me. He couldn't access the main menu of the DVD. That was option was not available. He had to fast forward through the previews. Once the DVD played through the previews and was at the main menu, John selected the "Play All" option.

"We wish you a Merry Christmas," sounded from the TV as there were little cartoon children singing.

"I love Christmas," I said.

"Me too," John said. "It was my favorite holiday growing up."

"Mine too. Of course, I also had my birthday a week before Christmas every year too, so it was a hell of a lot more fun."

John chuckled. "Yes, I bet that was a lot of fun."

"Since we're on the topic of Christmas, what would you like for Christmas?" I said.

John smiled. "Just you," He replied.

I grinned. "You are so sweet." I then leaned forward and kissed him. The kiss was light and sweet. I soon felt John's tongue, parting my lips, begging for entrance. I opened my mouth and felt his tongue slip inside. He began to move it around with mine.

The both of us forgot Melissa and Boog were there.

I was soon lying on my back on the sofa with John on top of me. I wrapped my arms and legs around him. He pressed his body into me, which was me moan. This got Melissa and Boog's attention.

"Really, John?!" Boog said.

John and I both pulled apart and looked at each other. We then looked over at Boog and Melissa.

"Oh, please," John said. "I've seen you do far worse! I've nearly walked in on you having sex!"

"Are you kidding me?" Melissa said.

I untangled my arms and legs from around John. I then pushed him off of me and sat up. "You walked in on your baby brother having sex?!" I said.

"Well, the dumbass decided to have sex right in the living room of my dad's house in the middle of the day," John said.

"Hey, I was eighteen and Dad was at the restaurant. I was horny and so was my girlfriend at the time," Boog said.

"So this was just three years ago?" I asked.

"Yes," John said.

"Okay, so we don't have that problem, let's go," I said. I grabbed John's hand and dragged him to his bedroom. He made sure to close the door loudly for Melissa and Boog to hear.

"Now where were we?" John asked.

"I believe we were having some tongue action," I said.

"Perfect," He said. He grabbed hold of me and threw me down on the bed. He then kissed me hard and passionately. I wrapped my arms and legs around him like I had before.

Nothing naughty and nasty went down. John and I just made out for two hours. He had to work in the morning, so when it got to nine o'clock, it was time for me and Melissa to leave.

We walked out of his room holding hands. Melissa and Boog were making out themselves.

"All right, children," I said. "It's time for Melissa and I to leave."

"What? Why?" Melissa asked.

"Because John has to get up at five tomorrow for work. So I'm leaving and you're coming with me."

"Fine," Melissa said.

I shook my head. I turned my attention to John. "I'll see you tomorrow evening."

"Can't wait," John said. He gave me a kiss and a hug.

"So what did you and Boog do while John and I were in his room?" I asked Melissa as made our way down-stairs.

"Talked and made out," Melissa said. "I'm going to see him at work tomorrow."

"Are you serious?"

"Yes, and I just might let Boog make me breakfast tomorrow morning."

"How the hell are you going to let him do that?"

"I'll stay with him at his place," Melissa said.

"He still lives with his dad while he goes to school," I said.

"Oh, please. Boog tells me he has had girlfriends stay the night all the time and his dad didn't care."

"Just be careful, okay?"

"Trish, he knows what happened to me in high school, which is because you and John told him and his brothers. He isn't going to do anything unless I want to. Before we were even making out, he asked if it was okay."

"Are you serious?" I asked.

"Yes."

Melissa and I got to the main floor of the apartment building.

"Okay, I want to know one thing," I said.

"What?" Melissa asked.

"Is this going to be a hook up or will a long distance relationship happen?"

"I don't know, Trish. It's just a fling right now. I go back to Atlanta with Mom and Dad on Saturday afternoon."

"You'll be back here for Christmas, though."

"Yes, but I'm not living in the same city with him."

"Okay, whatever," I said.

Melissa and I walked out of the building and to my car. We both got in quickly and I locked the doors quickly. We both put our seatbelts on and I turned the heat on. I then maneuvered my way out of being parallel parked and headed back to my apartment.

John and I had both been against Boog and Melissa hooking up, but from what I could see they both liked each other. They had both hit it off like John and I did. I kind of wanting Boog and Melissa to be a couple now. That wasn't my choice, though and I wasn't going to put pressure on them to get into a relationship.

I was not the type of girl to really hook up with a guy and have a one night stand. Melissa wasn't that way either. She planned on spending the night with Boog tomorrow night, but that didn't necessarily mean they were going to have sex. If it lead to that, that was between them.
