Maya’s P.O.V
“Thank you for tonight. I had a good time.” Char said as I walked her out.
“Well, I am glad. You are welcome here anytime.” I smiled.
“Thank you.” She said.
“We will see you tomorrow for coffee before classes,” I said hugging her.
“See you then,” she smiled hugging me back.
She called another goodbye to Nolan, him responding before she headed off. The three of us have had a good night. We watched movies, ordered pizza. We hung out, all getting to know each other better. She has been through a lot of the same things as Nolan. I can never understand why people can make other human beings feel so bad. It disgusted me. It made me ashamed to be human sometimes.
I headed back inside to help Nolan finish clean up.
“I like her, she is great,” I said as I walked.
“Me too,” he smiled.
Hmm, he likes her too. Wonder if he means the same way I do or more.
“You do uh?” I said smirking.
He lifted his head to look at me, raising his brow at me. He knew exactly what I was thinking. The look on my face giving me away since he can read like me a book.
“I mean as a friend Maya, don’t you be getting any ideas.” He laughed.
“I do not know what you mean,” I said innocently, batting my lashes at him.
“Course you don’t,” he chuckled, “Do not even try playing matchmaker Maya.” He added, a sternness to his tone.
I giggled, holding my hands up. I will not, well not right now anyway. It does not mean I will never try to do it though. I will see how well they continue to get along. They would be cute together. Plus, they have a lot of the same interests. With any luck, they will get along well enough that they get drawn to each other. I want my best friends to be happy. I want him to get his first kiss, his first girlfriend and eventually when he is ready to have s*x for the first time. He is too good of a guy to be ignored. If most guys were more like him, then this world would be a better place for everyone. Not like girls are innocent, we can be assholes just like guys can but still. There would be less heartbreak in the world if we all acted like decent human beings.
“I am warning you, Maya.” He said glaring at me, “I can see what you are thinking.” He added.
I rolled my eyes at him, sticking my tongue out at him. He shook his head, the both of us laughing. We got finished cleaning up before getting ourselves ready for bed.
“Nolan,” I said in my sweetest tone,
“Yes Maya, you can sleep in next to me tonight.” He laughed.
He knew me too well. I do not need to ask him for anything, he always works it out before I do. I really like my buddy snuggles with him. They always make me feel better and less lonely. I know he enjoys them too.
“Thank you,” I said kissing his cheek.
He chuckled, slipping his arm around my shoulder and we headed to his bedroom. I slipped in first, Nolan slipping in next to me. He got laid down just and no more before I moved into him, snuggling against him.
“Could you have done that any quicker?” he laughed.
“What?” I giggled.
“You would think you haven’t had snuggles in weeks.” He said.
“I like my snuggles, you know that so shh,” I said prodding his nose.
I looked up at him, flashing my best smile at him. He smiled, leaning down, and pushing the air away from my eyes. He kissed my forehead,
“I know you do.” He said.
We decided to watch Netflix’s for an hour before going to sleep. It was not too late yet. If we tried to fall asleep too early, it would work. I moved, resting myself between his legs. My head on his stomach, his arms draping over the top of me. It was comfortable and I like being comfortable.
“You get comfortable in the strangest positions.” He said.
“I know. If you are not comfortable, I can move.” I said leaning my head back to look at him.
“No, you are fine. I am fine.” He smiled prodding my nose.
“OK.” I smiled, wriggling my nose and turning back to the TV.
We stayed up for an hour before getting ourselves settled down for the night. My back to his front. He was always the big spoon. We preferred it that way.
*******
I woke up before my alarm. I giggled, feeling my best friend’s morning friend digging into me. You would think I would be used to that by now.
“Sorry,” He said nervously from behind me, putting a distance between me, and well that.
“It’s fine, you can’t help it.” I laughed.
He always got embarrassed about it. I have told him a hundred times it was nothing to be embarrassed about. It was natural. It was that innocent, pure side of him. Maybe when he finally starts getting laid, he will not get as embarrassed about these things.
“Stupid thing,” he muttered out.
I had to stop myself from giggling again at the way he was acting. I turned around to face him.
“I wish you would stop getting embarrassed about it. It is natural.” I said.
“I know that, but you can’t appreciate wakening up every morning with it digging into your ass.” He said, blushing.
“It really doesn’t bother me. It seems to bother you more.” I said shrugging.
“It is embarrassing.” He laughed,
“Only cause you let it be. It is only a hard-on.” I giggled.
What a conversation to have at six a.m. Only us.
“Can we please stop discussing my morning friend now please?” he chuckled.
I nodded, probably best. I do not think his face could get any redder without him passing out. I laughed, climbing out of bed.
“I am going for a shower,” I said heading out of his room.
We had plenty of time before we had to go meet Char. It gave us both time to get showered and ready before we head out.
“I need to pee, can I come in?” I hear him say from outside the bathroom door sounding desperate.
“Yes,” I laughed.
He would not see anything anyway. You cannot see through our shower doors. I hear him rush in. I laughed loudly at how quickly he rushed in. I hear him sigh in relief which made me laugh harder.
“Stop laughing at me or I will come in there and pour freezing cold water over the top of you.” He said.
I knew he would be smirking when he said that without even looking at him. I opened the door, just slightly to pop my head out.
“You try that, you are a dead man,” I said wiggling my finger at him.
“Yeah, yeah.” He said rolling his eyes, “Don’t be taking forever in there, I still need to get showered too.” He said.
I decided to mess with him, only a little. Only cause it was fun.
“You could always come in. It is big enough for the two of us.” I said smirking.
“MAYA SIMMS!” He said shaking his head, laughing.
“Only a suggestion, would save time,” I said smugly.
He flipped me off, soon walking out of the bathroom. I fell into fits of laughter. I could hear him too. I like we can mess around like this. He knows I am only messing anyway. That would be wrong. He and I naked at the same time…just no! WRONG! In so many levels.
I pulled myself together, getting finished up. It has been a fun start to the morning.
