"Ok." She says, turning her phone off. "But can we watch it in your room? I don't want to go back downstairs.
"Of course!" He responded gently, with an air of understanding in his voice. "You can pick the movie."
"Alright, let me go back to my room and grab my hairbrush and a movie." She said, calming down a little.
A few minutes later, returned with a couple of DVDs, a deck of cards, and her hairbrush. "I have a feeling I'm not going to sleep much tonight, so I thought I'd bring some movies in to last until you fall asleep."
"Ok, that's fine. But I'm probably not going to get any sleep tonight either. I'm not letting that asshole near you." said as he looked at her, trying to hide his own fear and be reassuring.
put the DVD in, and then sat down on his bed with his back against the pillows. then and sat at an angle so she could turn to face him as they talked and could watch the movie. then moved off the pillows and sat at a similar angle so conversation would be easier. As the movie began to play, dealt out the cards so they could play rummy as she brushed her hair.
"You know," said to her. "I always imagined it would be pretty relaxing to brush a girl's hair. But maybe not so much with curly hair. I'd be afraid of the tangles hurting."
"It's really not so bad." She said to him. "If you've got curly hair, you kind of get used to it." Then she shocked him and handed him the hairbrush. "Go ahead, try it."
Suddenly, she caught herself. "What am I doing?!" Then, thinking back to what she had been pondering in the shower decided to, just for tonight, go with the flow.
took the brush from her and then slid back so his back was again the pillows and she moved so she was in front of him. He tried to keep a distance between them so she wouldn't feel the erection that was starting to develop. He always knew he had feelings for her, but didn't want to ruin their friendship. Especially tonight he didn't want to make her think he might try to take advantage of her.
He began to brush her hair, and after she had to give him directions a few times he got the hang of it. really liked the feeling of having someone brush her hair for her and finally began to relax a little. She wanted to lean back into him, but could tell he was trying to keep a distance. She told herself she was trying to be respectful, but in the back of her mind she was wondering if he was hiding something. The thought of that, which normally scared her since she knew about men thinking with THAT head, but tonight it just roused her curiosity.
finally felt like her hair had been sufficiently brushed and took the brush back from and set it aside. Then she went back to where she had been sitting in front of him, but scooted back a little and leaned her head onto his chest. She was able to feel a slight erection through his pants, but tonight and with him she simply didn't care. She needed the closeness.
"What are you doing?" asked her, perplexed.
"I just need the closeness tonght, . If it bothers you, I'll move." She said pitifully.
"No, it's fine." He responded, wrapping his arms around her to see if she'd move them, which she didn't.
They sat like that in silence for a while, until spoke up with a question. |
