Icy twins and hot actors のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 11 - チャプター 20

Next day*Lumi* "Hi sis or should I say beautiful mystery blond". I say giggling, as I open the door to Meri's bedroom. She rolls over, brushing the hair out of her face. "Uh what ? Where ?" "Morning sleepyhead, up and get ready. You need to look like a million just in case anyone recognises you". She still looks at me utterly confused. "You and Tom were spotted yesterday … you my dear are all over the net". She sits up rubbing her eyes, before grabbing her iPad. It doesn't take long before she is groaning. "Did they pick all the worst pictures of me on purpose ? And the headline "Bennett's hottie" ... Seriously ?" "Well you are a hottie, why complain about that ? Believe me they could have called you a lot worse". I shake my head. "And by the way you look great in every picture". "Tom Bennett seen out and about with a young beautiful blonde, could there be love in the air for the 37 year old actor ?" She groans again. "See I knew they would comment on the age". I shake my head.

10 days later *Tom* I am shuffling about in my kitchen getting lunch ready when the doorbell rings. So I dry my hands and go to open the door. "Luca, welcome to England". "Hi Tom". He grins and we hug each other. "So this is where you live. Nice place. Very much you it seems". "Yeah we can't all be cowboys unfortunately". I grin. Luca had called me, telling me he was coming to London to read on a part and do some interviews, so I told him he could stay here. He chuckles. "Oh I am sure you would make a mighty fine cowboy Tom, with a lot of sunscreen". "Ha ha, very funny". I step aside. "Come on in, lunch is almost ready. We are just waiting for Meri". "Oh … would that happen to be that cute little blonde you keep getting snapped with. The one who you claim is just a friend ?" He walks inside, looking around. I walk up the stairs showing the way. "Well yeah … that would happen to be her … and uhm truth be told definitely more than a friend". "Yeah sorry Tom, but I think anyon

*Lumi* The dinner has been… Let's just say, a bit tense. Meri has been looking lost and Tom has desperately been trying to smooth everything over, coming with really bad jokes to lighten the moods. Luca has been saying almost nothing to no one and I have pretended that he doesn't exist. Meri suddenly had an urge to show me the upstairs, and I am guessing it is to give Tom privacy to talk to that big headed jerk about civil behaviour. "Honestly I don't know what it is with Luca. But I am sorry he is acting like that. I was so sure you two would hit it off … he wasn't like this at all". She says, shaking her head. "Well I know what it is with him, he is an egocentric dick … a lot of men are like that". I shrug. I can't believe they tried to set me up with someone like him. She shakes her head. "You know I wouldn't set you up with an idiot. I met him yesterday, and he was just the sweetest, most charming guy … I don't know what is up. Tom says he is a good guy too and they have kno

*Tom* We are done playing and I am standing with my arms around Meri, feeling all nervous. "I was thinking, both me and Luca had too much to drink to be driving. I could call you a cab ...". "You don't have to Tom, we can take the tube". She cuts in, making me even more nervous. "No". It comes out much more demanding than I meant it to. "I mean I don't like the idea of two women alone in the tube this late". She giggles, and places a hand on my chest. "Tom no need to worry, I had self defense classes and Lumi has been doing kickboxing for many years. We can handle ourselves". "It's just ... damn what I actually wanted to ask". I swallow. "Maybe you would like to stay ? I have a second guest-room". "Oh so me and Lumi can sleep there ?" She smiles up at me. "Sounds like a good idea". I sigh. "Yeah, that is what I meant". I feel like a teenager here. "It is ? And here I thought you were desperately fishing for me to ... sleep in you bed". She giggles and wink at me. I groan. "Y

*Lumi* I pull away, looking into his eyes and a curl in the corner of his mouth forms into a devilish grin that makes me melt and go weak in the knees. "Hey baby". His words are the softest I have heard from him, his eyes not leaving mine for a moment. "Maybe we should move into my room for ... the rest of this"."Yeah, I don't want Tom or Meri catching us here". I reply, knowing what the statement will bring. In a swift motion, he brings us both into the room, closing the door. I barely have time to think before I am pressed against the wall, and his hands are cupping my face. Luca presses against me, his mouth a breath away from my own. If I thought my heart was beating violently before, this surely outdo the feeling ten-fold. I closed my eyes, savoring the soft flesh of his lips, tasting the wine on his breath. They say first kisses are like fireworks shooting, the world nearly spinning off its axis, or something along the lines of complete and utter explosion. This kiss is n
