two : you're so good at love;

*This is actually Julia. Just so you're aware :)*

Song: From Friends to Lovers, Michou

*Julie's POV*

I was scrambling to get ready for work while Carey watched me run back and forth between rooms. I just heard him laugh, I was like a chicken with my head cut off.

“You need to relax” he laughed.

“I’m going to be late”

“You have two hours Jules”

“Yes, but traffic and--” the sound of my phone ringing cut me off. Anna.

Anna was my best friend, and when I heard what had happened between her and Ryan, I was heartbroken. They always seemed happy, they were great together. I just don’t know where all of it could have went wrong.

“So what happened?” I asked turning it to speaker phone so Carey could hear too.

“A lot” she sighed, “I left”

“So you have nowhere to stay?”

“Nowhere. Can I stay with you guys maybe?”

I just looked at Carey who kept shaking his head “no”. I didn’t have the heart to say it. He liked Anna, but I don’t think he liked the idea of someone else staying in our house, plus, he knows how Anna can get.

“Fine” he huffed.

“Alright Anna, you’re welcome to stay here” I smiled.

“Thank you so much Julie. I promise you won’t even know I’m there”

“I’m going to hold you to that” Carey said. I just glared at him and he just put his hands up in defence and took a step back.

She just laughed, “love you too Carey”

“See you soon Anna” I replied.

I hung up and Carey’s facial expression said it all.

“Come on, you would have done the same for a friend” I said putting my hands on my hips.

“She better not be staying long” he sighed.

“I’m sure it won’t be a long time. Just until she finds a place of her own”

“Well I guess we don’t have much time for “us” then” he said moving closer to me.

I just smirked as his lips gently pressed to mine. He tried to push it farther but I stopped him, “I can’t” I sighed, “You know I have to get to work”.

“Call in sick” he mumbled placing kisses on my neck. It took all my willpower but I put my hands on his chest and pushed him back, “I can’t” I pouted. He replied back with a pout.

“I’m sorry”

He placed a soft passionate kiss on my lips and he literally took my breath from me. How could I say no?

“I promise” he then mumbled into my neck, “that you’ll still be there on time” he continued placing kisses down my neck.

I drew in a sharp breath as I felt his soft lips on my neck. I couldn’t hold back, he didn’t even know what he did to me. I just pulled his face up to mine and kissed him, “you caved” he mumbled against my lips with a smile.

“Only for you” I whispered into his ear, gently placing kisses down along his jaw line.

He picked me up and carried me to the bedroom, not daring take his lips from mine. He set me down on my feet and shut the bedroom door behind him. Let’s just say, today, I called in sick.
