Story: Neighbors

“Good morning, Kitty Kat.” Bryce looks over his shoulder and smiles. “I’m making you breakfast. It’s almost ready. Also, you look sexy as fuck in my shirt. Feel free to wear whatever of mine you want.” His ocean blue eyes sparkle.
I play with the hem of my shirt, a smile playing on my lips. “You didn’t have to cook breakfast.”
“I know I didn’t, but I wanted to.” He places a couple more pieces of French toast on a plate, pursing his lips while he looks around for maple syrup.
I walk over to the kitchen table and sit. A second later, Bryce comes over and hands me a glass of juice and a cup of coffee. Just how I like it.
“Thank you,” I say when he leans down to kiss me. My heart soars high, I wonder if it’ll ever come back down.
“You’re welcome, baby.” He smiles and returns to the counter, where he’s prepping all the food. Not long after, Bryce brings over a massive place stacked high with French toast, along with his own coffee. He places a couple pieces on my plate, and I dig in after dousing it in syrup.
“Oh, Bryce.” I moan, licking my lips. The butter and maple syrup dance on my tongue, the bread melts in my mouth, giving my tastebuds a small slice of heaven.
Bryce looks up, his Adam’s apple bobbing up and down when he smirks. “Damn, I enjoy hearing you say that.”
I laugh out loud. “It taste’s so good in my mouth.”
“That’s what she said.” Bryce chuckles, sipping his coffee.
I shoot him a look, and then I laugh too. Grabbing my fork, I dig back into my breakfast. Moaning deliberately now, just to drive him crazy.
“I’m going to need a cold shower after eating with you.” he groans. I laugh and shove more food in my mouth.
After breakfast, Bryce kisses me, then leaves to go to his apartment to get ready for work. I call Vicki after heading to the living room to let her know about the latest developments in my life.
“Hey, girl!” She says excitedly when she picks up the phone.
“Hi,” I bite my lip, not sure how to put it.
“Everything okay?” Her voice lowers, she sounds concerned.
“Everything is more than okay, actually. It’s great.” I smile thinking about Bryce and me.
“So, what’s going on? Who are you and what have you done with my Kat?” she jokes. “Tell me what happened! You sound way too happy right now.”
“Because I am. Bryce and I, well, we’re officially dating.”
There’s silence on the phone before Vic lets out a piercing scream of joy. I pull the phone away from my ear and put it on speaker, figuring that I’ll let her finish her celebration.
“I knew it would happen! Oh my God, Kat! Tell me everything! I need to live vicariously through you.” Vicki begs
“Well, after I brought him to my parents’ house—and you know his parents were there—he was so happy to see them.”
“Of course he was.” she retorts. I can practically hear her roll her eyes.
“But he was so surprised to find that I was the reason they were there. He turned around when they told him, and then he ran up to me and kissed me. Like really,reallykissed me.” My stomach does flips thinking about it, and I blush.
Vicki squeals into the phone. “Ah! Girl, I’m so excited for you. You both are too cute together. Austin and I had bets on how long it would take.”
My mouth drops open. “Are you serious? His partner?”
“Yeah, unless you know another Austin.”
“Wow, you two are something else. What’s going on with you guys, anyway?” I try to change the subject.
“Oh, no you don’t. Tell me more. Did you fuck his brains out yet?” Vicki cuts to the chase. “Tell me he got your v-card! Did he clear out the cobwebs?”
“Hey! First, there are no cobwebs. Second, no, we didn’t. He’s well aware of my virgin situation but is completely fine waiting until I’m ready. And I’m just not ready yet.” I know he’ll be my first. He’s the only one I’ve ever actually wanted to have sex with. I just need to be ready in my head for that moment.
