I decided it wasn’t.
Teasing April was just part of my thing.
She only ran off because she felt embarrassed and vulnerable near me.
Or maybe it was because other guys in the past made her feel like crap over wearing that face cream stuff. Or maybe it was something in general. She felt she needed that stuff… to look pretty enough?
For what?
For me?
“Ah, shit,” I whispered.
If that was what it was…
I almost walked out onto the balcony to grab her and tell her she was beautiful no matter what.
Alien goop or not, babe, you are the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen.
And then kiss her.
A mushy kiss.
Except that wouldn’t do at all.
Not good enough.
April looked back at me from the balcony.
I didn’t do a thing.
I froze like a deer in a set of headlights.
Even that pissed her off.
She proudly lifted her right middle finger and stuck it out like it was a knife and she wanted to stab me.
“Well done, Seb,” I whispered to myself. “You really pissed her off now.”
And this time, it wasn’t the same April as before.
It wasn’t the April with braces and messy hair.
This was April, the woman.
I gritted my teeth, facing the reality that she could indeed crush parts of my soul that I never believed could be crushed.
So I set my sights on the bathroom.
That’s where I first found a small pile of her clothes.
Right on top?
A light gray bra and a pair of light gray panties.
Just the thought of those panties touching her body… touching certain spots…
I shut my eyes.
