In Return For - B.Gray

11 | for you

"Hi, I don't think we have met, I'm Josie," Josie comes and offers her hand to Lila.

Lila smiles and takes her hand to return the shake. "Hey, I'm Lila,"

"I'm Griffin's girlfriend, and usually the girls that are brought in this house give me earfuls about stealing their mans, so just to clarify, I'm not stealing your man," she says, seeming nervous.

Lila laughs that causes Josie to stay confused. If anything, I think she is actually scared of what Lila might say. "Oh my god, I'm so glad I came. Josie, I am not dating anyone here, and I'm sorry girls are like that, but you don't have to worry," she ends that off with a slight laugh and Josie smiles.

"Oh my god, I was scared you were doing a sadistic laugh you do before going off."

That's where she was right. "Oh no, your absolutely right, she does that. Just not now," I add on.

That was totally Lila.

Josie laughs and asks if we want to sit on the side with her and we nod.

Shortly after that, we are watching Noah on the balcony, trying to jump off, and when he does, water splashes all over.

"Now that you're all wet, how 'bout you join us in the water?" Blake asks coming to me and we all snicker laughs.

"Nice one,"

"I try," he smirks and pulls me near the direction of the pool.

His hands go to my waist and wrap around the front of my stomach as his front is hugging my back. His chin drops to my shoulder as he places a kiss on it.

Holy crap. No, he can't do that. I was pretty sure my whole face was red like a tomato at that. He continues to place kisses around and I'm too aroused to stop him.

As much as I hate to admit it, I enjoyed this too much to push him away.

"What are you doing?" I manage to get out in breaths. I feel his small smile on my skin and he moves his mouth near my ear.

"I just want to touch you," he whispers.

"In front of your friends?" I ask, hoping he would see that we are part of a crowd.

"Yes, I don't care," he says and I snap back into reality.

Reality is where Blake Gray doesn't like a girl like me.

I take his hands off my stomach and turn around to face him. He holds a strong frown. "Let's swim?" I ask, trying to change the topic.

He eyes me then ends up sighing and taking my hand in his. "What are you doing?" I ask as he drags me inside the empty house.

"Blake.." I stop talking when he stops dragging me and turns to stare at me. His intense gaze startled me about what he might do— or say.

"Kelsey.." he trails off and runs his hands through his hair.

"What Blake?"

His breath is the only thing heard in the quite room. Then he speaks again. "Never mind," he says, annoyance is laced in his voice.

"So aren't we gonna swim?" I say trying to change the topic onto something lighter. "Sure why not," he says.

His mood still seemed different after that, but I chose not to bring it up. He probably doesn't want to talk about it by the way his mood was affected.

And even now, I can't tell why he is mad.

Right now, Josh and I were on Blake's team on one half of the volleyball net that was set up in the pool.
