Chasing you (part 10)

Start from the beginning
                                    

"Nothing." I said shaking my head and focusing on the food while smiling. He grabbed my arm.

"No uh! Look at me! Why are you smiling?" He asked. He was pulling my arm and in one swift movement I grabbed his pulling him closer and side hugging him.

"You just admitted you missed me." I said and he just hid his face on my chest.

"Whatever I did miss you. I'm already used to your nagging presence every day. Beside you missed me too." He mumbled embarrassed.

"Yeah I already told you I did." I said. We hugged each other for a few more seconds until Beam made some distance to finish eating.

"What should we do now?" I asked and he shrugged.

"I have some video games if you want to play." He said and I looked at him surprised.

"Really?" I asked and he nodded.

"Yeah why are you so surprised." He asked.

"I don't know I didn't think you played video games." I said and he glared at me.

"Are you saying I'm boring?"

"Well I'm not saying you are fun." I said to tease him. After that he started hitting me and we ended up play fighting. It wasn't long until I had him pinned under me.

"Do you know who you are trying to fight?" I said amused.

"Whatever let me go." He said trying to release his hands from my grip.

"Waittt I won. Don't I deserve a reward?" I asked and he froze on the spot.

"What kind of reward?" He asked and I thought about it for a second.

"A kiss on the cheek." I said leaning forward. He seemed to be thinking about it and when I was close to his face he turned his head towards me making our lips crash instead.

I was surprised but hey I'm not complaining. I deepened the kiss releasing his hands which instantly made their way into my hair pulling me closer. I couldn't help but smile a little before continuing to kiss him. It was getting heated and the fact that I was straddling him since the beginning wasn't helping. I let my hands wonder around his chest and moved on to suck and kiss his neck. He let his hands wonder too and I could feel them in my back and then on my chest. As much as I wanted this I just knew he wasn't ready and I didn't want him to push me away after. So I gave him one last chaste kiss before making some distance. At first he seemed disappointed and then came the fear. He quickly made some distance between us and looked away. He was lost in the moment. So was I for a second. There was a silence and I was afraid he'd want me to leave. Just when he was becoming more comfortable around me and even taking initiative to see me. And one kiss might ruin it again.

"Bee." I said softly.

"I'm sorry." He said not looking at me in the eye.

"Hey I'm not mad or anything. It was just a kiss. We can forget about it if you want." I said and he looked at me hopeful.

"Would you do that?" He asked and I nodded. It hurt but I can get over it. He's still scared for some reason. At this point he knows I like him. I just need to figure out what's holding him back. Because I'm sure he likes me too and he wants this.

"Of course Bee. If you say nothing happened then nothing did." I said sincerely and this time he looked at me.

"Then let's forget about it." He said and I nodded not talking about it anymore.

"So video games?" I asked and he nodded.

"I have both a PlayStation and Xbox." He said and I shook my head.

"No gaming computer then?" I joked and he glared at me.

"Shut up that's all I have take it or leave it." He said and I laughed.

"Let's see what games you have on the PlayStation." I said and followed him to his room where it was set up. We spent the rest of the day playing and fighting like nothing happened.






A.N.

So I told the reason I wasn't updating on the last chapter and if anyone wants an update on it here it is. I didn't know what to do at first so I almost quit on the spot. After talking with my coworkers they convinced me to talk to my boss and the manager. We are a small sushi restaurant with just 7 people working there. He is one of the only two cooks working there and I'm one of the three waitress. We are really short staffed but his absence would definitely hurt more than mine so that's why I was gonna quit. I ended talking with my boss and manager. They were aware of the situation but as me not to the extent it had developed. Thankfully they were really understanding. As of now I still have to work with him. But under no circumstances we will be alone and he leaves before I do. There's always someone with me walking me to my car and making sure I get home safe. It's still tense since I have to see him every day. But he's not allowed to talk to me or bother me in any way. Since the situation if so serious if he tries to have contact with me that is not work related he will be fired and my boss will be under the obligation to file a police report. I am welcome to do the same whenever I want. I'm still considering leaving but I'm holding on to the hopes that they will find another cook and I won't have to see him much. If not then I'll work until they find a replacement for me. Because they have been really good to me and I don't want to leave them even more short staffed. That's all for now sorry for the really long rant! Thank you for reading and stay safe! I will see you guys on the next chapter.
