Both of you gasped in surprise when the phone rang. You backed up a little and Tim didn’t know what to do, whether he should keep going or answer the phone but he didn’t have to decide ‘cause you stood up and went to your room. “Hi dad!” you heard him say as you kept on walking.
Ten minutes later he went to your room to apologize but you’ve already passed out. There you were… lying in bed, fetus position. Tim sighed, walking in just a little bit to make sure if you were ok then he slowly covered you with a blanket so you wouldn’t get cold.
3 hours later you woke up by the noise to what it seemed to be glass breaking; you rubbed your eyes to completely wake up and got out of bed to check where the noise came from. When you walked to the kitchen you saw Tim on the floor “STOP!” he said in a very commanding way; you froze and realized he was picking up the pieces of a broken plate, “What happened?”; “I was gonna grab a plate to make a sandwich and it slipped from my hand” he explained; “So… you can throw a 95mph fastball but you can’t hold on tight one plate… interesting”, he looked at you raising an eyebrow then you giggled.
You: “What time is it?”
Tim: “It’s almost 11. Are you hungry?”
He finished picking up all the pieces. You made your way to a kitchen stool and sat Indian style. Since you were so small you had no problem sitting like that on a stool.
You: “I’m starving… which reminds me you kinda said I was gonna starve to death here”
Tim: “I didn’t say that!” he laughed “You did… All I said was that there’s nothing much to eat here but we can order though”
You: “Well, since I’m new in town… Surprise me!”
Tim: “Ummm we could order some Jimmy John’s!”
You: “Oh I heard they’re reeeaallyy good!”
Tim: “They’re the best!” he grinned.
It took only like 15 minutes for the food to arrive and both of you ate your sandwiches sitting on the couch watching TV. “I’m gonna go to bed” you said, giving out a big yawn. “Oh, ok…” Tim said, disappointment mixed up with sadness showing on his face. “Goodnight Timmy”; “Goodnight ___”.
The next morning Tim woke up around 9 and walked to the living room wearing nothing but boxers thinking you were still asleep but the image he caught froze him. He saw you in the balcony wearing tight yoga clothes, in an Arm Balance Scorpion position. He didn’t know what to do; he just stood there, mouth open, admiring the view. When you went back to Downward Dog position you noticed Tim was looking at you and you lost your focus. You stood up real quick making you lose balance; “Shit!” you yelled as you fell to the floor and started picking up everything while Tim looked at himself noticing his boxers he then ran back to his room to put some clothes on. When he came out you were walking to your room.
Tim: “Well that was a nice position”.
You turned around, raising an eyebrow.
You: “Well that was some nice boxers”.
Both of you blushed a little.
Tim: “Wanna go out and get some breakfast?”
You: “Sure… let me get ready”.
When he pulled the car you looked at him “Really Tim… Really?!” In-N-Out for breakfast?!” He laughed, “Why not?!”; “You’re gonna get me fat!”; “Oh please, working out the way you do you MUST have some of these!”
The two of you sat down in a corner table in the back so you could have some privacy. “I dare you to eat 3 burgers” Tim said with a big grin. “What?! There’s no way in hell I could ever eat that much!” “Pfft, loser…” “Ugh!” You playfully punched him in the arm. The conversation went on and after having your breakfast both of you headed to his car.
Back in his condo you took off your hoodie, placed it on the couch and put your hair down “I should get my stuff and go to the hotel I told you about” you said playing with your hair; Tim just stared at you with the same look he gave to you in the hospital. “Tim, are you listening to me?” He walked towards you, puts a hand on your hips… “Tim, what are you…” another one pulling your face and BAM! He kissed you with burning passion. The kiss lasted a few seconds then both of you looked into each other’s eyes… then you lifted your chin, wanting more. He grinned and kissed you again.
You put your arms around his neck; he lifted you, your legs around his waist and he placed you on a kitchen stool. Tongues intertwined, his hands placed on your lower back, your hands on his strong chest, both of you breathing heavily. His hands slipped inside your top, caressing your soft back. “Tim…”, he kissed your cheek, down to your jaw line, then softly kissing your neck. “Tim… we shouldn’t do this”; he kissed your lips one more time “I know” he whispered. Both of you just stood there, lips touching yet not kissing, just breathing together, eyes closed. Your hands touching his face and neck, his hands pressing against your hips.
He pulled away slightly just so he could take a better look at you. Your lips were cherry red, so were your cheeks. “I should go” you mumbled. He cupped your face with both hands then kissed your forehead. “Please stay” he said, puppy eyes at their best; “I can’t stay Timmy. I… well… it’s not that I can’t stay its more that… it’s just not right”. He kissed your nose. “Timmy, don’t do this. You know it’s not right”. He kissed your cheek “I’ll buy your icecream” he said with a big smile. “Oh for fuck sake Timothy! Don’t make this so hard”. He kissed your lips “I just don’t want to let go” he whispered in your ear.
Timmy sat indian style on the guest bed watching you get all your stuff. He knew he wasn’t going to convince you to stay ‘cause deep inside he knew it was too soon and everything was going too fast. After getting everything you approached to him, laid your hands on his shoulder and kissed him on his forehead. “C’mon, I’ll drive you” he said.
“Hey, I haven’t asked you. Where are your puppies?” you said on the way to the hotel. “A cousin of mine has them. He asked to take care of them for a couple of days”; “Oh… don’t you miss them?”; “Of course I do, they’re my babies”; you looked at him and smile. While you made the reservation at the hotel he asked to pay for it but you strongly refused, “C’mon on ____, let me pay for it, please” “Timmy, you paid the hospital and let me stayed at your place. I got this one, ok?” “Fine”.
After finishing the reservation he got closer to you “Have dinner with me tonight”, you couldn’t help but smile. “But I don’t have anything nice to wear, I only packed jeans, tops and something to sleep. Stuff like that”; “It doesn’t matter, I’ll probably be wearing jeans and a t-shirt”; “…Umm, ‘probably’ it’s not good enough with me“; He laughed “____ just put something comfortable. You look pretty anyways”; “Well thanks, what time then?”; “Uumm, its 7 ok?”; “Sounds perfect”; “I’ll see you tonight, beautiful.” He said and pecked you on the lips.
