I slip the red gown on me after I had packed my hair up into a tight bun and rounded it at the end so nothing flowed. It made me look prettier than usual actually. The red lipstick helped too.
I hear a grunt behind me and when I turn, Scott is dressed in his new attire looking hot as hell while he checks me out. I blush facing the mirror again. "Help with the zipper please?"
He walks to me and starts zipping me up like some mechanized robot. He place feather like kisses on my shoulder before dropping the strap there. "It would take bottles of drinks to not bend you over my knee at that dinner" he mumbles and I chuckle. Somehow those words, roused a sex beast in me at his dominance.
"Promise me you won't drink though"
"Don't make me promise anything baby. You're the temptress" he smirks.
"And drop flirting with me" I blush looking away. He laughs, walking into the bathroom.
Storm POVAs I barge into Perry Cafe, I spot Rose bent over a counter with her chin on her palm. She was looking at a cookbook I guess but when I draw closer, I see it's a magazine in her hand. Suprised that she's even looking at a news headline makes me smile. I hug her from behind and she squeaks."How was Thanksgiving?" I giggle when I let her shoulders go. She spurns around with a grin."Well it as surprising. Guess who came back for dinner?" She questions, I quirk a brow up."Who?""Hailey's dad"Rose peps and I watch her mule over her baby's daddy for a little while before she snorts. "How dare he even attend Thanksgiving like some real dad""He does have a right to see his daughter except you have restraining order against him" I tell her. Her eyes twitch."Oh damn!" She sighs. "My mom was surprised to see him, me as well but what wa
Scott POVAs I walk away from her, away from the house, I feel myself withering away. It's not just normal to have a fight with Stormy. There's not always an assurance that we might see it through and even if we do, I'm always threading on thin ice and it scares the hell out of me. There's only what thing for me to do to make all of these right.I've got see Anna. But I haven't spoken to her in months so it might be awkward but at this point, I'm willing to do anything to put a smile back on Stormy's face. When she pushed me away, I felt awful seeing that disgusted look on her face, but I was too much of a dick to even admit I was wrong.I drive my Chevrolet away from the parking lot, heading for Stormy's old apartment in hopes of seeing her ex roommate. I really want to make all these right or I might just not go home today.I can't stand Stormy getting mad at me. We've come a long way fr
Scott walks into the house and shuts the door behind him, his eyes roaming over the mess on the floor. Tim stands away from the very expensive vase and walks behind me to hold my dress, away from Scott."My God! You're scaring him with that look on your face!" I snap at Scott and he stares at me."It fucking cost me a lot" he said and I shake my head with a frown. "And who is he?""He's your neighbor's son, Scott" I tell him. Can't believe he doesn't even know his neighbours. Can he get any weird than he aleady is?"What's he doing here?""His mom had to run out cause it was urgent and I'm watching over him. His name is Tim"Scott bends to pick the bags he dropped on the floor and my eyes widen. Is that groceries? Scott went to the grocery store?"What's all this?""Obviously grocery" he states when he was done picking them all up. Walking
Tim kept glaring at me and smiling and it's creeping me out. I roll his shirt into his bag before taking it downstairs. The little guy follows me, tailing behind. I drop the bag on the couch so when he mom comes to get him, it won't be hard to find."So you got some last night huh?" Tim smirks at me and I place my hand in my chest."Excuse me?" I ask the seven years old boy who is staring up at me like he's just won a lottery. He points at Scott who just came down the stairs with bed head, and then points at me. "You two. Last night" he grins and I gasp. Oh my God! I walk away from him, feeling my cheeks flush while the little boy went on laughing.I walk up to Scott "we might have just tainted the mind of a seven years old boy" I gasp."So? The little fucker is bound to know this shit anyway" he drops the glass in his hand. "give him three years and he's trying to get into the pants of his female
"Well isn't it good to see you in a red shirt" David laughs at Scott when he comes in through the door. I turn my face the other way, trying to hide my smile. I made him wear that because I wanted him in a holiday spirit. Scott easily flips David off."Oh Storm darling" Elle greeted me with a warm hug. "It seems like months since I saw you at Thanksgiving" She winked at me."I made lots of cookies" I prompt to everyone including Scott's parents. Val sends me a kiss before dipping her hand in a green sock and pulling out lots of candies. I invited Rose and Hailey too and they're here. It's all so amazing."Seems like Val is all over the place already" Elle giggles. I move on from her to say hi to Grace. She sends me a warm smile before pulling me in for a hug. In the process, I glance at Scott's dad and he grins at me before walking to Carter and the two men banter about whatever they were talking about.
"So you've literally never played basketball before" I hum following Scott round the store as he pushes the trolley. I take it upon me to fill the trolley up."I've never needed it to" he shrugs and stop when I pause to carry a jar of Mayonnaise from the shelve. We'll need this for making New Years dishes and salads."Wait! Tell me how your highschool days were like?" I ask. We've never really talked about this stuffs but everyday, I leaned new things about Scott. He's like an atlas full of wonders. I can't get enough of knowing him. Each time I think I do, he surprises me."Nothing much. Went to school, failed my tests lots of times, fooled around and got lots of tattooes"I smile, trailing my finger up the rose on his arm. "I love them""What?""You're tattoos. It's like who you are, poured out in ink" I giggle. We move on through the store again, Scott had a really char
"I wish I could be here for New Year too" Mom puckers her lower lip at me and I smile before hugging her. She's going back to Canada today and it's bee one hell of a time with her. She gor to meet my friends and new family."We could always video chat whenever""Yeah, it's not the same." Mom rolls her eyes. Her bag is wheeled out of the back of the car by Scott. Since this morning, he's been quiet and I couldn't come up with a reason he's like that. "Give me a hug too would you?" Mom asks Scott.He looks uncomfortable but still goes to hug her I stiffle a smile. She looks so small in his arms because of his height and it has me knowing that's how I look like toi when we hug in public."Take care of yourself...and her" Mom tells Scott."I will" Scott promises before handing me her her luggage."Whoops! Look at the time, I've got to get running before I loose my flight
"Dad?""Baby girl... it's so good to hear your voice" My dad says. My heart fluttered with him calling me his baby. I've known that nick name since I was a little girl."Daddy...". My voice cracks. "You called me""Of course"I move uncomfortably on my chair, keeping my fingers crossed. He's got to have a reason for calling me."I miss you Stormy... it's been years""Yet you didn't call all those years" I didn't mean for my voice to sound judgemental but it does and I'm pleased with myself."I'm sorry Stormy...but I did call" His voice was low and full of regrets, I hope.
