My Crazy Housemate

3Leo King had a lot to do. He had to go with Mia to go see her mother and Mr Timothy, he also had to go home to go meet his mother since they had to talk about the whole 'cake as big as the universe' thing and the party his grandmother was planning to hold for him. But now, he wasn't sure he would be able to do any of those.     0

He tried to think straight and let her go. To get away from her, to roll away and adjust himself. But he couldn't.     

His self control was slowly slipping away but he reminded himself this was Mia.     

And Mia was the only woman capable of throwing him out of his house if he overdid things and crossed the boundary.      

But where there boundaries now? She didn't seem to mind.     

'Shut up Leo! Do you think she's capable of thinking straight right now?' He scolded himself.      

As crazy as it sounded, he wished he was a Werewolf. At least, he would have taken this opportunity to mark her so that whenever anyone saw her, they would see the mark on her neck and know she belonged to someone. To Leo King.     

"Leo..." She moaned out his name again making him never want to stop. Making him want to do more things to make her say his name that way over and over and over again.      

He slowly raised his head from her neck to look at her face. Her eyes were closed. Her hands now groping the sheets tightly, and she was biting her lips, which looked rather seductive to him.     

The whole thing was so erotic that he grew larger and almost lost control.     

'Focus Leo!' He shook his head to shake out every other thought and fought the urge to take her lips in his and suck on it until she screamed his name in ecstasy.      

She opened her eyes and after a few seconds of staring at each other with undisguised desire and passion, she was the first to react.      

She pushed him away. Although she didn't push too hard, Leo moved and lifted his body off of her.      

She knew if things continued this way, she was going to lose control and do things she wasn't sure she would end up liking or regretting. She hated taking risks and this was one big risk that scared her so much.      

Seeing the panic in her eyes, Leo moved completely away from her but still remained on the bed and used the duvet to cover his lower body so she wouldn't see 'it' even though she had felt it just a few seconds ago.      

His eyes went to her legs and when she noticed where his gaze was, she quickly pulled down her skirt which was doing a pretty good job of covering almost nothing from his eyes. Then, she sat up and put a hand in between them.      

"Do not come any closer. I... I rebuke you.." She stuttered and stood up in a hurry.      

'Okay, this is weird.' Leo thought to himself.      

'Does she regret it? The kiss? I didn't even touch her.'     

"What's wrong?" He asked her calmly not wanting to scare her.      

She looked slightly disheveled. Her hair was messy, her clothes rumpled and face extremely flushed red and lips slightly swollen from the passionate kiss they had both shared.     

He watched her wrap her hands around her body as if she was cold... or scared.     

"I am... scared." She said as she looked at him with obvious fear in her eyes.      

Leo sat up on the bed. He would have reached for her but he didn't want to scare her more when she saw how turned on he was for her. He concluded it was best to just sit there under the duvet and act like everything was okay with him even though his hormones were driving him insane.      

"Sacred? Why?" He asked her in a quiet voice. He feared if he raised his voice even a bit higher, she may run away. From the room, from the house, from him.     

"I don't know... this.. this whole thing." She said shaking her head.     

"What's 'this whole thing'?" He asked in confusion.      

"This!" She said pointing at the bed while raising her voice slightly.      

"I don't... even know what to think or what to do. I like you, I am attracted to you. But.. I don't think I... want this. I just..."      

"Mia." Leo called her seeing how confused she looked as she kept rambling on.     

Mia looked at him and stopped talking and to her surprise, she saw him taking off his hoodie.     

"What... what... are you.." Why was he taking off his clothes? She was telling him she didn't want this but he was stripping?      

Leo ignored her and stood up with his back to her making her back away. He had taken off his hoodie but he was still wearing a simple white polo inside. Was he planning to completely strip before her?      

She watched him tie the hoodie around his waist, making sure she wouldn't notice a thing before turning to look at her again.      

She kept moving back until her back was pressed to the wall and he stood in front of her before he raised his hands and dropped them on her shoulders to make sure she looked at him and not avoid his gaze.      

"Calm down Mia. You can say all you want to say slowly. You don't have to be scared." He said and looked deeply into her eyes with gentle eyes.      

"I promise you, Mia... I won't ever do anything that's going to make you scared or uncomfortable. So just relax, and talk to me. Okay?" He asked her with a small smile that made her suck in breath again.     

Why was he so adorable? She hadn't been the type to always fuss about looks and all but why couldn't she just be indifferent towards him like she had always been with every other guy she had met?      

Leo watched her face in confusion as he saw a tear slide down her eyes and she sniffled.      

"Mia? What's wrong?" He asked in surprise as he caught the tear with his hand and cleaned it off.     

"What's it?"      

"I... I don't know. It's just..." She dropped her gaze from his to look at his chest which was directly in front of her. She could hear his heartbeat which was pounding very loudly and fast.      

"What is it? Why are you crying? Did I do something wrong? Please tell me.." He pleaded with her desperately. He didn't like to see her cry. He always saw Mia as a strong girl and knew she was the type to cry when the situation was really tough for her.      

"It's too... difficult to not like you." She said before slowly wrapping her hands around his waist then she placed her head gently on his chest.      

"I am scared. I've not liked anyone before. I don't want to like someone and they begin to treat me like my mother did. If the woman who gave birth to me can treat me like that? Then what about someone I just met? I'm scared Leo King. I rarely like someone but when I do, I like the person with my all. What if the person doesn't like me back? What if it's all a lie? What if at some point, I no longer matter to the person? This is too big of a risk for me to take." She said in between sobs.     

She was now crying really hard now. She was crying more because she was pitying for herself in advance. She knew things didn't always end well for her. She wasn't even sure why she really liked him. Was it because he was nice? Or because he was from a rich family and was helping her out? Or because her hormones kept drawing her to him because he was super attractive? She didn't want to make a mistake.     

But she knew one way or the other, she couldn't escape this. She was going to eventually make a mistake. She was going to regret it. But she didn't know whether the regret was going to come from either running away from this or facing it head on.     

Leo was flabbergasted. He stood there like a statue not knowing what to do or say.      

This was also a part of his fears and he had been right to feel this way. He didn't want to hurt her. He wasn't sure he could give her the type of love she wanted to wipe off every pain she had felt before. But he also didn't want to let her go.      

Should he make the promise? The promise to be there for her always? The promise to keep her safe and make her feel loved? The promise that he would never meet any other woman except for her? But could he keep it? Can he fulfill it?      

Should he assure her that she could trust him? Can he trust himself even?     

He hugged her back, wrapping his arms around her possessively and also in comfort.      

"Truthfully Mia...." He started slowly.     

"I am... also scared. Very scared."     

"But I'll be here."     

"For you..."
