Talk to a Friend

Sebastian had fled to the bathroom and didn't return until fifteen minutes later. He was buttoning up his shirt at the corner of the room and watching me closely. I pulled the cover up to hide my lips and tried to ignore his gaze on me. 

"Are you trying to unsettle me?" I asked. 

"Not even in my dreams would I think I could unsettle or frighten you." He shook his head. "I'm looking at you and trying to think."

I glared at him and slowly pushed the cover down. "Is that so?" I slid out of bed. 

"We're getting late," he told me. "Rush or we will be late for the first class." I hastily went to the bathroom and got ready. 

"Next time," he said suddenly as we pulled out of the parking spot. "Next time when you want to kiss me or do anything scandalous, could you do it out of bed?" he pled. 

My mouth hung open in shock. "What? I thought you were rational and knew how to stow down your excitement and lust," I said hurriedly.
