Lucas’s POV
I spent the best day with Angelina.
I was being my gentle, soft self with her. Unlike yesterday, when I kept pressing on her nerves, teasing, and provoking her just to get a reaction from her.
Today, I was totally polite and sensitive towards her. I knew she was still rattled by her nightmare and that me spending the night with her helped her to get past it enough to fall back to sleep. But it wasn’t enough to push it out of her head entirely. That will require some time to achieve, and I will try to work with her on this.
I changed my tactic towards making her stay here with me and allowing her feelings for me to grow instead of pushing them away. I decided to stop provoking her or playing any sort of game with her. I just wanted to be there for her and show her the real Lucas, when he’s not surrounded by his craziness and impulsiveness.
After breakfast, we headed towards the gym for practice. I dragged David along with me too. He complained at first but I knew he was just trying to tease me for being so obvious about wanting to spend more time with Angelina. Not that he wasn’t getting more time with April in the process. These two were still a mystery to me that I haven’t had time to ask about yet. Were they friends or were they more than that? Guess I’ll have to investigate that as soon as I’m done convincing Angel to stay here with me. Then I’ll have time to gather more information about them.
I trained with David until we were both sweaty and gasping for air. My eyes always drifted to check her out. It was so involuntary on my part, I couldn’t control myself no matter how much I tried to. She was wearing long, purple, yoga pants today with a white sleeveless top. Her curly hair was pulled up into a messy bun, showing the beauty of her neck.
After working with April for the past hour, she was sweaty too and the cutest red blush covered both her cheeks from the effort she was exerting throughout practice. She looked so mouthwatering, that I couldn’t block David’s kick to my stomach on time because I was too busy eye fucking the hell out of her sexy body.
The kick hurt like a son of a bitch, like he was hitting his mortal enemy instead of me. I groaned loudly, clutching my stomach and glaring up at him. The asshole was grinning from ear to ear.
“What the hell man!” I exclaimed angrily.
He chuckled and said innocently “It’s not my fault you weren’t paying attention man”
I resisted from flipping him off, tackling him to the ground, and showing him what happens when I actually pay attention but I barely held myself.
“OK, I’m done for today. You ladies want to call it a day? We still have gun practice” said David excitedly.
Yeah sure you’re done after nearly causing my insides to rapture! I’m so getting back at him for this tomorrow.
April said breathlessly “Oh yeah, I’m done too. That felt so good Angelina! I love practicing with you” said April appreciatively.
“You were great today April. You caught up with those new moves pretty fast, you’re a natural at this” said Angel in a complimentary tone.
April beamed at her after hearing this and she stole a glance at David who was smiling proudly at her.
“OK, Let’s go” I said softly and we headed up into the mountain to teach shooting to April and Angel.
Today, I brought the guns and the ammo with me so we don’t have to swing by the house again and go straight to our shooting range.
David taught April while I stayed with Angel a few feet away from them.
Angel practiced shooting more bowling pins and she absolutely nailed them all from the first try. She was fucking impressive and oh so sexy and bad ass with a gun in her hand and that concentrated look on her face. To make matters even worse for my self control; which was barely functioning to begin with, she bit her lower lip every time she tried to point her gun at the target before pulling the trigger. I don’t even think she was aware of that little gesture, but damn if it didn’t make my dick so fucking hard nonetheless. I wanted to capture that alluring lip and suck the living breath out of her. I had to adjust my jeans discreetly every now and then to contain my growing erection.
After April got the hang of it, we made them compete against each other by assigning four pins to each of them, and the first one to shoot all four wins.
It was a pretty close call as April was apparently also a natural at this too. Must be the Snow blood. She was born a fighter my little sister.
Angel won with a two second difference between her last shot and April’s.
They both high fived excitedly and congratulated each other for pulling off the shots from the very first try.
David and I were so fucking proud of them. They don’t even need a lot of practice to become pros at this.
We got back home with all our moods lifted up high, and a genuine smile on all our faces.
I can’t even remember the last time we were all this happy before the shoot out on our house last month.
We got back home just in time for lunch.
We sat together in the living room after and both of them gushed excitedly about their day to mom who looked really happy to see them smiling and excited for once.
I have to admit, seeing Angel’s smile never leaving her mouth since we started our day in bed together felt so fucking amazing. I was filled with pride that I was able to change her gloomy mood and put that smile on her face today. Maybe I wasn’t the whole reason for her happiness but I was pretty sure I was a big part of it.
The day passed in a blink of an eye. All of us stayed together in that living room enjoying the conversation and the positive atmosphere until the ladies got up to prepare dinner together. I found myself stealing glances at Angel most of the time and I couldn’t help but notice that she was doing the same thing too. Both of us physically unable to keep our eyes from returning to gaze at each other.
Night time came and we all retired in our own rooms for the night.
I have to admit, I was really hoping that Angel would ask me to stay the night with her again. My body was missing her profoundly after last night, but when she wished me good night with a polite smile and closed the door behind her quietly, I had to resist the urge to offer to spend the night with her myself and went inside my own room with a slight ache for missing that warmth seeping into me from her body.
I was still worried about her. She seemed really okay, but I know deep down she was so nervous about tomorrow’s events. It was the day I’ve been waiting for since Zade’s name got associated with dad’s murder. I had no worries about our face off with him and his men tomorrow. I was completely at ease and you can even go as far as saying that I was excited for it.
I was laying on my bed, sleep being the last thing on my mind, not when it was filled with snippets of Angel’s cute smiles throughout the day, her sexy body in that workout outfit, her red sweaty face, her posture when she was holding the gun in her firm hands, and that lip bite……that lip bite was so fucking exquisite that it made my dick hard inside my pants again just from the mere memory of it.
I held it in my hand firmly and grunted in pleasure as it shot through me like a rocket…and that’s when my brother Alex decided to call me, making my lust over Angel’s lips disappear completely and bringing me back down to earth with an annoying interruption.
“Fuck” I cursed in frustration and left my dick to cool off while I retrieved the phone from my nightstand. I could almost feel its anger at me for not finishing the damn job as it sent a jolt over my body in irritation.
