𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐃𝐀𝐘 𝐖𝐄 𝐌𝐄𝐓 [ᴄ.sᴛʀɴʟ] ON GOING

𝐓𝐖𝐄𝐍𝐓𝐘 𝐅𝐎𝐔𝐑

Everyone starts to eat. I eat as well, leaning on the kitchen island since i have no stool. Benji look at me from top to bottom

"Do you want to sit on my lap ?" he asks

"I'd rather never be able to sit again" i answer and they all laugh at my response

"Would like to sit on mine ?" Chris asks, raising an eyebrow

"Hum...yeah...i'd prefer" i stutter, not so confident

Chris makes room on his lap for me to sit. I gently sit on his lap. He wraps his arm around my stomach to keep me steady which makes my body shiver. I'm trying so hard not to blush since the guys are looking at us. I keep eating, trying to look as indifferent as possible though my entire body is literally melting for the man I'm sitting on.

The dinner went out pretty good, since Benjamin and Nick hogged everything. So they didn't really notice Chris and I whispering into each other's ear and him caressing my arms. Unfortunately, it's time for the triplets to go.

"Y'all can go first, i gotta do something" I say while we all stand up to leave the kitchen

Benjamin lead them to the door, but as Chris is walking away, I grab his hand to hold him back

"Wait a minute...I gotta tell you something" I say, holding onto him

"What ?" he says, all confused

I take a deep breath and rest on the kitchen's counter. He is standing right in front of me and looks at me deep in the eyes. Why does he have to be so intimidating ?

"I wanted to ask you something..." i say, playing with my fingers

He doesn't say anything but his blue eyes tell me that he is all ears

"It's about a prom night at my school..." i continue "A valentine's prom...and I have planned on to ask Nick and Matt to go too but...I wanted to announce it to you first because...I feel like our relation is different from the one I have with Nick or Matt...so I want you to know that I don't look at you like I look at your brothers..." I feel my face slowly turn red

Chris looks at me with a huge smile on his face. He holds my hand and brings me closer to him.

"So you're asking me to be your valentine ?" he puts his hands on my hips

"I don't know...maybe ?" i smile at him

He leans over and reduces the distance between our faces. A playful smirk appears on his face as he softly grabs my face with his hands and pins me against him. I feel my heart pounding my chest. We've never been so close before...I'm so intimidated that I hold my breath. Is he going to kiss me ?

"What are you two doing in my kitchen ?" exclaims my mom as she enters in the kitchen

Chris and I quickly let go off each other, completely embarrassed. Why is there always something to interrupt us ?

"What did you all cook for dinner ?" she continues, changing the topic like nothing happened

"Hum...Mac and cheese, vegetables and salmon..." I answer, as my face goes back to its normal tone

"Is there some leftovers for me ?" she asks whilst she is looking in the kitchen cabinets

"Yes, everything is in the oven" Chris points at the oven as if my mom didn't know where's it at

"Nice" she takes the platter out of the oven and gets a fork out of one drawer

We are both watching her circulate in the kitchen like we're statues. She serves herself a plate of the mac and cheese and she leaves

"Remember the rule, Ivy...No meat in my kitchen !" she says before closing the door behind her

"Oh my god ! She did not just say that..." I cover my face with both of my hands, trying not to die of embarrassment

Chris giggles before he suggests us to go before the guys get impatient. We both leave the kitchen and go outside to join the others. Nick and Matt are already in the car and Benji is leaned on Nick's window chatting with him. Benjamin is the first to notice our arrival.

"Damn, finally ! What were you two doing ? Does that take so long to make out ?" he says, laughing at us

"Shut up !" i punch him "Aren't you cold like that ? Half naked with all that wind"

"I'm never cold !" he growls as he flex his muscles "Certified hot boy"

"You're so dumb" i giggle

Chris gets in the car after he kisses the back of my head discreetly. I smile and wave as they drive away.

"Alright, I'm freezing let's go inside" Benji runs back in the house

"Oh my god, Benji...you're such a show-off !"

I follow him back in the house. My mom is sitting on the couch watching TV and eating her dinner as me and my best friend are walking back in the living room.

"So...when did you plan on telling me about Christopher being your boyfriend ?" says my mom without getting her eyes of the television

"What ?" me and Benji exclaim in a same voice
