Temptation and lust; Unforgettable Affair

Chapter Seven - One dirty text, I am blocking your ass...

Miles P.O.V

Layla and I were sitting in my car, just not long back from the diner. I did manage to behave for the rest of our time in the diner. But the fact that she admitted it, without really admitting that she was attracted to me made me want her more.

“So, can I get your number? For work-related things?” I asked

“Work-related? You sure you can only use it for that reason?” she laughed

“Hmm, I will try.” I laughed

“I will give you it as long as your promise not to send me d**k pics or dirty messages.” She smirked.

“I am too classy for d**k pics baby.” I chuckled “Though I do like dirty messages, love phone s*x and sexting.” I added.

“You send me one dirty text I am blocking your ass from my phone, got it?” she said sternly but was giggling at the same time.

“Fine, fine…I won’t.” I said holding my hands up.

She was too easy to wind up, it was fun for me though. She got her phone from her bag, telling me to get my phone and gave me her number. I honestly wasn’t sure if she was gonna give me it. She read her number out to me and I typed it into my phone, calling it to make sure she had given me the right number and so she could get my number.

“You have been warned...” She said firmly

“That goes both ways now Layla, I don’t want any dirty texts from you either,” I smirked.

“Bullshit! You would love if I sent you dirty text messages.” She said smirking back.

I nodded, no point denying it, she knows that I am attracted to her by now, why start lying to her now. She rolled her eyes, reaching over and slapping my arm playfully.

“Creep,” She laughed out.

“Hey, I am being honest,” I said shrugging

“You are too honest sometimes.” She said.

“Yes, I have been told that many times,” I said.

It was true, I have been that by a few people that I am too honest. I have a habit of opening my mouth and speaking without thinking.

“I should really get home, up in like five hours again for work, plus Kyle will be up soon and will worry if I am not there.” She said.

Kyle, that is the lucky fuckers name!

“Yes, probably better, don’t want a search party getting sent out for you.” I laughed.

“No,” She said.

Her car was only a couple of spaces away from mine, but I got out with her, walking her too it. I was a gentleman like that. When we arrived at her car, I grabbed her, pulling her into me and hugging her. She hesitated for a second before she relaxed and hugged me back. What I wanted to really do was kiss her and badly, but I think that would be pushing it. I will need to work on that.

“Text me when you are home OK? That way I know you got home safe.” I said.

“I will, thanks for tonight Miles, at the bar and coming to get food and coffee with me.” She said as we continued to hug “Do you always smell this good?” she added giggling.

“Thank you, I like to smell nice.” I said, “You do too, you smell of coconut.” I added.

“Thanks, that is because I am obsessed with coconut, everything I use is coconut.” She laughed as we pulled apart.

Yes, this was a strange topic of conversation but oh well. I laughed along with her. A silence stood between us for a moment, neither of us seems to want to move. I reached my hand up, pushing a few strands of hair away from her eyes. I hear her breath hitch for a moment in her throat when I touched her.

“See you tomorrow.” She said quickly, turning around to get into her car “Night.” She said

“Yeah, see you then.” I sighed “Night.” I added.

She gave me a smile before closing the door. I watched her as she struggled to get the keys in to start the car, think I have distracted her. She finally managed, giving me a wave before driving off. I stood, watching her as she drove off. f**k! Maybe I should have leant in and kissed her while we were close and alone, too late now. I headed back to my own car, heading home. I was ready for sleep, but I wanted to wait until she texts so that I knew she was home safe.

I grabbed a bottle of water, stripping down and pulling my pyjama bottoms on and climbed into bed. I was glad I wasn’t starting until later, could get a decent sleep. I grabbed my phone, checking it and seen there was a text from Layla.

Layla: Hey, that is me home. Did you get home alright? X

I smiled seeing that she asked if I got home alright too, that was sweet of her. She could have easily only written home but glad she never.

Miles: Hey. Thanks for letting me know gorgeous. I got home safe too, just in bed X

Layla: Glad you got home safe too :D. Yes, same just climbed into bed myself and as soon as I did, I stopped being tired ☹ lol…typical! X

Miles: I hate when that happens, so annoying especially when you are up in like five hours X

Layla: I know right!!! So annoying! Ha-ha. Well, I am gonna try to sleep now. Night X

Miles: Sweet dreams beautiful. Goodnight X

The conversation ended there but that was fine cause knew she needed sleep, or she was gonna be shattered in the morning. She had a long day, nothing worse than a split shift, hate them and even worse if you haven’t slept.

I sat my phone aside, no need to set an alarm since I never started to later. Even if I slept late would still have time to go for a workout and coffee before would need to get organised for work. I got myself comfortable, ready for sleep to take over, Layla playing on my mind as I drifted off. I think I would need to get her even though I know deep down it is wrong.
