Convincing her (Jen and Lucas)

Chapter 39: Aggressive?



Chapter 39: Aggressive?

Lucas was obviously teasing Jen when he said that, her expression was worth it. He released her hair and got off her. He watched as Jen straightened her clothes and couldn't help but smile as he looked at her face that was still flushed from the session that they had just engaged in.

"Do you need help with that?" Jen asked with a serious face although inside she was fighting off her smile.

"What?"

"That" Jen said as she pointed at Lucas' lower body. She felt good to finally be able to tease him.

"Really? What do you have in mind?" Lucas said as he leaned back on the couch with his legs slightly spread as if signaling to her to do whatever she wanted.

Jen couldn't help but blush from embarrassment at this sight. Lucas couldn't help but chuckle at this sight and stood up from the couch. He walked towards the front door making Jen feel flustered.

"Where are you going?" she couldn't help but ask.

"I'm going to get my clothes from the car" Lucas answered as he turned back to look at her.

"Did you come prepared?" Jen asked suspiciously. There was no way he could have predicted that she would let him sleepover right?

"I have a gym bag with clothes in my car for when I spend the night in the office" Lucas explained after seeing her suspicious look.

"Oh, I'll get it for you" Jen said as she took the car keys from his hands.

She couldn't let other people see him come from her house wearing just a pink robe. Since she lived close to campus, there was a good number of students who lived nearby. It would be very awkward if anyone saw him come out of her house barely dressed.

"It's in the trunk" Lucas said as he watched her walk out of the house.

She quickly unlocked his car and got the gym bag out of his trunk before locking the car again. She saw a movement in her peripheral vision but when she turned she couldn't see anything. She just assumed that she was just imagining things and rushed back into the house. She handed Lucas his gym bag and he went to her room to change.

She on the other hand, headed for another shower since she smelled like food and with the addition of what had just happened between her Lucas on the couch, she didn't feel too comfortable. By the time she came out of the shower Lucas was not in her room anymore.

She quickly rushed into her closet and put on another pair of shorts and a tank top before tying her hair up in a bun. She knew she was going to be busy with the physical work so she did not bother putting on any makeup except for some lip gloss.

She got out of her room soon after and saw Lucas scrolling through his phone at her kitchen counter. He was wearing a white t-shirt and knee length shorts exposing his muscled arms and legs. She quickly put on a pair of snickers and the both of them left her house to go to Lucas' family house.

As they were heading to his parent's house Lucas couldn't help but ask her something that he had been very curious about.

"Why did you become so shy with me after we first met?" he asked, his gaze still focused on the road.

"Huh?" Jen responded feeling a bit puzzled.

"You were very, um, aggressive?, when we met at the party" Lucas clarified.

"Isn't it obvious?" she asked while looking at him like he was an idiot.

"What was?" Lucas obviously did not see her expression.

"I was drunk, of course I was bolder then" Jen explained.

"But what about the next day, you were also very, vigorous?" Lucas said while finding an appropriate word to describe what happened the day he spent the night at her house.

"Well, I obviously didn't think that I'd be meeting you again, so why the hell not right?" Jen explained it to him again.

"I still don't get it" Lucas muttered to himself. He was not complaining because he did enjoy seeing her reactions when he was being suggestive, but the contrast between her now and then couldn't be ignored.

Lucas was clearly overthinking things, Jen couldn't act shy and bashful in front of a stranger, and she felt that that is even more awkward since she also can't tolerate strangers acting that way towards her. Since she was being acquainted with him, she couldn't help but reveal her true personality. It was not as complicated as Lucas was making it out to be.

"Is it bothering you?" Jen asked. She didn't know why he suddenly brought up that day.

"Rather than it bothering me, I'm... curious" Lucas replied reassuring her that it wasn't a big deal. Jen nodded to herself before switching to another topic.

"Why did you decide to move? Isn't it better staying with family?" Jen asked genuinely curious.

"Well, now my dad is my boss, and I'm the only one who is still living at home. Both my brothers moved out when they were even younger than I am" Lucas explained.

"Is that it?" Jen asked after she waited for him to continue with his explanation.

"The other reason, which is the reason no one knows about is that, I wanted to be able to freely bring you back home without the curious gazes being directed at us" Lucas finished.

Jen didn't know what to say. He left home so she could come stay over? As she was deep in thought Lucas glanced at her and saw her furrowed eyebrows.

"What is it?" He asked, curious about she was thinking about.

"I don't know how I should feel about this" If what Lucas said was true then he was the only child left at home. She left home because of her deteriorating relationship with her mother. If she had a choice she would have rather not left, but here is Lucas with a pretty much perfect family and he wants to leave home for her?

"It's not complicated, the things I did to you today. I can't bring myself to do them in my father's house. I will have moved out eventually, so whether I do it now or in two months wouldn't make too much of a difference" Lucas said his eyes still on the road.

Although she felt slightly embarrassed when he mentioned what they did that afternoon, she could understand his reasoning, sort of. He is a grown man so he had the right to make his own decisions. She had unknowingly reverted to the thinking patterns of an older sister, but Lucas was very different from her younger brother.

"Okay, I understand" Jen said with a light nod and continued staring out the window.
