The Taunting (College Life #1)

Love conquers all, you know

Elizabeth's P.O.V-

"He did what now!" yelled Jill over the phone. 

"It's over now, Jill. We talked about everything." I reassured her.

"So, you guys are good now?" asked Tana, who is also on the phone.

"Yes, we are good," I told them what happened with Andreas and me at the game yesterday. The girls were infuriated that Andreas would do that. Thank god they aren't here, I think they would have attacked him.

"I was wondering what happened when you didn't come back out to the game, then you texted me and said you didn't feel good, I knew you were lying." said Jill.

"How?" 

"Because you would never miss a moment to see Andreas play ball, and especially the championships, which don't come around as often. I just knew he had to have done something wrong." 

I laugh, "It could have been me; you know."

"Hell no!" Tana said. "It wouldn't have been you because the girl never does anything wrong, it's always the guy. Where is the ass at anyway?" I can hear her grinding her teeth over the phone. I would hate to be the one picking a fight with Tana Morganstrotter.

"He's in the bathroom taking a shower. We're about to go to the bar with his teammates in a few minutes to celebrate the win."

Tana scoffs, "You've got to be kidding me, why didn't Parker tell me anything. That ass." 

"He might know that you're using him for his money, Tana," said Jill.

"SO! He should have told me about him and his teammates hanging out, I want to go! It's just not fair." I can practically see her pout through the screen.

I hear the water in the shower turn off in the bathroom, letting me know Andreas is out. He comes out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around his torso. Water drips down his body and the crest of his abs. His hair is tangled and wet as he runs a hand through it. I watch as he bends over and rummages through his suitcase. 

Last night he decided to move out of his hotel room with Topolski and in with me. Topolski was a little sad to see him go, but Andreas promised that they would hang out tonight. I'll probably need to take a moment away from all the testosterone anyway, perfect time for them to chat. 

I almost forgot that my friends are on the phone, and they're currently yelling at me, "Eliza! Eliza, Earth to Eliza." 

I jump back to reality, "What?"

"We were saying how when you get back, we should all hang out, what is going on with you."

"Uh- I- uh, nothing is the matter. I just got distracted." I can see a smirk dance on Andreas's lips as he puts on deodorant, and he takes this time to drop his towel, showing me his bare ass. 

"Let me guess, Andreas is naked in front of you right now," Jill predicted and was right.

Tana says, "Jill, give her a break, have you seen Andreas? That's one piece of hot Asian ass. If he was naked in front of me, I may just die and go to heaven. You are truly blessed, Eliza, don't forget that." 

"Oh, I know," I mumble under my breath, watching him rub lotion on his ass. God, he knows how to seduce a girl. "Hey, I've got to go, call you guys later." 

"Sure." 

"Yeah." 

I hang up the phone. 

"Are you trying to seduce me, because it's working?" I ask, throwing my phone on the bed.

He laughs, I watch as his shoulders shake, listening to the beautiful sound of his voice. I can't believe just last night I wanted to kill him, I was so angry and furious with him. For going out to that game, scaring the living shit out of me. He apologized over and over again last night, kissing every single part of my skin, lighting me on fire. He held me, I held him and he promised me over and over again that he would listen to me, and never scare the living shit out of me.

I believe him.

"That's the whole point. As Tana said, I am hard to resist." He puts on his underwear, then a black t-shirt that shows off his muscles, and blue jeans. 

"I should have taken the phone off the speaker. You are so full of yourself." 

He smiles, a smile that makes my chest tighten, "I can't help it." 

I get off the bed and walk toward him, wrapping my arms around his front, and leaning my chin on his shoulder. I have to stand on my tip toes since he's so tall. We stand in front of the mirror; I watch as he puts some hair products through his hair. "I think you spend more time getting yourself ready than I do. You look pretty, baby." I say, kissing his neck.

"Thank you, E. I try to look my best for you, you know." As he fixes his hair, I play around with him and move a strand of hair. 

"Now, why the hell would you do that!" He shrieks, moving his hair back. "I worked so hard on it." 

I roll my eyes, "Such a drama queen." I trail kisses down his neck, squeezing him to me. "I love you, though."

He grunts an I love you too. Once he's done fixing his hair, he turns around to me in my arms. He kisses the top of my head, ruffling my curls. "Are we good, you know." 

I look up at him, watching the sparkle dance in his eyes. His lips are so smooth and his facial features are just perfect, almost too perfect. I run my hand down his face, skimming my fingers over his nose and lips. I got so distracted by his face that I forgot what he said.

"I'm sorry, what did you ask again?"

He kisses my temple, "I asked you are we good. After yesterday, everything that happened I just want to make sure-"

I plant my lips on him, "We are just fine, Andreas. I'm maybe 10% mad, but that other 90% is happy. Not every couple is perfect, but that's fine. We just need to listen to each other and be honest, that's all. Right now, I'm happy, very happy." 

He squeezes my hips, "I'm happier than you are." He challenges.

"No, I'm happier." 

"No, me!" He picks me up, slinging me over his shoulder, flipping my skirt off my ass. He smacks it hard, making me wince and scream.

"That hurt, Andreas." 

"That's the whole point." He twirls me around the room, I grip his shirt so I don't fall off his shoulder. When he sits me on the ground, I fall back on the bed. "You ok?" He tries to hold in his laugh.

"You are such an ass!" I clutch my head, trying to stop the spinning.

"I know, but that's why you love me." I can feel his body loom over me, he kisses my neck and chest. I just sigh and lay there, letting him show his love.
