CHAPTER 11: SLEEPING TOGETHER

Henley could not help himself. After they did sex for the first time with Sophie. His sexual arousal for her was getting deeper which is he was not usually like that to her. He was not thinking any lust towards her when they were in high school or even in college.

However, not after she had a serious relationship with Ronald, he felt something new towards her. It was not a friendship thing. A little lust maybe a little jealousy. But now it was more lust and pleasure with desire.

He knew that Sophie felt the same too not just him. He could feel her lust and desire towards him. It could not deny anything by just looking at her pretty face.

Sophie was thinking the damn thing happening to them. She was not like that towards Ronald. The urge she feels towards Henley was different. She was always hungry with his touch every time she sees him. She was indeed very crazy. Hungry for sex with his boy best friend. The friendship they build since high school. Now, she was always longing for his touch.

They found themselves in the bed kissing again. As if they never always did for a couple of days now. They have been having sex everyday not just once but many times since they came in S City. Or after they did for the first time to be exact. They shared again the intimacy moment in that bedroom.

Milk Way County, Henley's Apartment

They arrived safely the next day late afternoon; they woke up late as usual since they had sex until morning. Sophie went straight to her room. It was seven in the evening in her wall clock. They travelled two hours but stopped for dinner nearby.

She was exhausted but happy that she felt nothing more about Ronald. She needs a brand-new life without him to pressure her. She turned on her cellphone as she goes to her bathroom for a quick shower.

She needs to be back to the hospital first thing in the morning for her previous appointments.

She did not go outside after her shower laying down her bed is the next thing she do. Her phone rings as she was reading some articles on her iPad. She looked at it; it was Ronald calling and some unread messages too.

She rejected his calls and deleted his messages. It was inappropriate if she still accepting his calls and read his messages. It was period for her already of what he did to her these past days.

For her that was the end of it. No more second chances that was her point of view with the relationships or flings she has with before. She was not that kind of person who will stick with somebody that has been unfaithful to the relationship. It is a big no-no to be exact words not in her vocabulary thou.

She put down her iPad to her nightstand when a knock on her door sounds. It was not lock but she got up and opened it. It was Henley, he seems got an after-shower look. He was smiling at her and she smiled back. She walked back to her bed not knowing or asking him what he wants.

Henley finished his shower some minutes ago. He was in his room lying already in his bed. He feels empty and lonely all of the sudden that is not him. He used to sleep alone but when he was lying down, he was thinking of Sophie.

He quickly got up and went outside.

He doubled check the main door before knocking at her room. He did not even attempt to turn the doorknob if it is lock or not but he respected her privacy. He was delighted that she opened it. He let himself followed her inside the room with saying a word. She was lying down on her bed and slowly he followed.

"Can I sleep here? I mean no sex to be sure just want to sleep beside you." He said shyly as he glanced at her.

"Okay bro, no problem. If you want to sleep beside me. No need to knock on my door. The door is always unlocked you know that ever since I moved here in your apartment."

"Okay thanks." Henley said as he lay down. He was at her left side of the bed. Sophie turned off the nightstand lamp.

Henley move Sophie's body closer to his so he could embrace her as they sleep. She did not refuse but she hugged him back closer to his chest instead. For the past days, she was used to it.

They did not do sex that night but sleep peacefully and contented with that position. This will be something new to them but it was good vibes.
