40 Chapter 40: Pool Side (1/2)
”Good morning you two.”
Ricky and Carlos both wipe their eyes at the same time, perfectly in sync.
”What is that delicious smell?”
Ricky walks over to me and rest his chin on my shoulder while Carlos sits on the couch,
”Well last night was really fun and I thought i'd get up early and make breakfast.”
He nuzzles up against my chest and puts his arms around my waist,
”Mmm, you're perfect Kaz.”
”Far from it, but thanks. Now go eat before it gets cold.”
”Right, Carlos get over here!”
He staggers over and sits at the table,
”Well? Are you two gonna sit down or are you just gonna let him sniff your hair.”
”Pft! I'm not sniffing her hair, i'm holding my beautiful woman close...but she does smell really good.”
”Mhm, go sit Ricky, you can be weird later.”
He sighs,
”Fine.”
They make their plates and talk amongst themselves and eat loudly.
'My man and my big brother. I didn't think i'd ever be this happy in my life. Even if it is just breakfast.'
”Hey, stop smiling like that. It's creepy.”
”Don't talk with food in your mouth, and my smile is not creepy!”
”Mm, that reminds me,”
Carlos swallows his food and looks at Ricky,
”Manny just got promoted and a few of the guys wanna come over for a barbecue and a dip in the pool.”
”Oh cool. What time did they say...”
Their words fade and my heart starts to pound,
”M-Manny...Manny who?”
They stare at me,
”Uh why?”
”You good?”
I realize that i've been squeezing the syrup bottle and it's spilling over the sides,
”Oh shit, sorry. I-i'll clean this up.”
I rush over to the sink and rinse off my hand,
”Hey why don't uh, why don't you head upstairs? Me and Carlos'll clean up.”
”What? No, i'll get it. Just give me a second.”
Ricky turns off the water,
”I said we'll get it. It's fine, just go get dressed, I wanna take you somewhere.”
”Oh? Ok then.”
I wipe my hands on my shorts and head back to my room. I try to ignore their staring but I can feel their gaze.
'This is so embarrassing. I need to get ahold of myself.'
”Woah, this looks like hell.”
All the hot memories from last night flooded back into my mind. I should clean up before I get dressed.
I pick up the tossed clothes and put them in the hamper. I make the bed, rearrange the dressers, clean out the closet, and empty the trash can.
”Yo, you ready to-omigod you're not even dressed.”
”I know, but the room was a mess from last night and I was just gonna pick up the clothes and one thing led to another and now i'm here.”
I fall back on to the floor,
”Ha, don't sweat it love, we can just get ready together. Now get your fine ass off the floor.”
He helps me off the floor and hugs me.
”What's been up with you lately? You're so clingy.”
”Should I let go of you then.”
”No, don't.”
He kisses my neck,
