Chapter 459: Come Here.

"You finished so fast? You even had time to put on makeup?" Laura asked once Jen got into the large SUV. Rachel had borrowed the car from Brian and had even offered that she keep it, but she didn't really have any use for such a large vehicle in the first place.

"Don't misunderstand me," Jen said with a sigh as she looked at Alex who was looking at her with schadenfreude.

"What misunderstanding? He is going to be your husband, and you haven't seen each other for so long. So it's understandable," Laura said as she turned around and looked at Jen with a cheeky smile on her face.

"Can you pretend like you heard nothing?" she asked them and they all laughed.

"Never," Laura answered and Jen sighed. The only ones she could rely on not to tease her too much were Rachel and Leanna, the rest of them… forget it.

"What about Nancy and Leanna?" she asked, changing the topic. The last thing she wanted to discuss was how she was allegedly sleeping with Lucas.

"Leanna went to pick her up since it was on the way, and also because Ethan insisted that they drove her to the spa," Rachel explained and they all suddenly felt like they were not loved enough. Alex sighed as she looked at the scenery outside before turning her head to look at her sister.

"Sis, you met a bunch of good guys and never thought of introducing me to them?" Alex asked and Jen became speechless. Whenever she heard stories about these guys from Lucas, she knew that they weren't really a bunch of good guys.

She could not reassure any of her friends on their reliability, and they could all just depend on themselves. If they were not to each other's tastes at the end of the day, then they would break up or wouldn't get together in the first place. She was not responsible for her friends' relationships.

"If you like any of them and they like you back, then go ahead," Jen said, and Alex felt like she was being roasted over the whole situation with Nathan. She then chose to keep quiet and look at the passing scenery outside.

Jen continued to chat with her other two friends when she noticed Alex's mood. She realised that she might have reminded her sister of the whole Nathan issue and she didn't want to talk about it in front of other people because it was something that she had been told in confidence. SO she decided on just keeping quiet about introducing her to the guys first.

"How's your progress with James," Jen asked Laura and couldn't help but notice her flushed cheeks. She figured that they had probably done it already.

"Things are going great," Laura responded honestly.

"I guess you two have already done it," Rachel commented as she noticed her friend's expression. Although occasionally, Laura would have a few hickeys on her, she could still tell that they had not gone all the way, because of all the naivete that Laura still possessed.

But recently, she noticed that her friend did not have that yearning and longing look she always carried around. Instead, she looked like the cat who licked the cream.

"I think so too," Jen added and received the rare view of Laura being embarrassed.

"It's going well," Laura said as she looked outside her window. It had only been a few days and she already regretted not having sex sooner. She was a twenty-six-year-old virgin. After James finally went all the way, she was baptized in regret. She had finally realised just how much she had been missing out on. 

And even though James made it sound like he would demand sex anytime and anywhere, she ended up being the one who was more demanding than he was.

This conversation made her remember why she persisted in James going all the way. James rarely drank, so when he came to her place one night after a business meeting, he was ridiculously drunk and Laura had to force him into the bathroom to take a shower. 

When he walked out, he was wearing a bathrobe, only; he had not even bothered tying the surrounding belt, so all those important parts were out on display. His shoulder-length hair was still dripping with water, and he was wiping it as he nonchalantly walked around her bedroom.

Laura was lying on the bed while going through her social media when he came out. So when she saw him, she became distracted and completely forgot about her phone and focused on him. James sat on the edge of her bed as he continued to wipe his hair dry and Laura continued to watch him wipe his hair dry.

"Do you want anything?" Laura asked as she swallowed. Her mouth was dry but looking at James she wanted to swallow him up.

James paused his actions and looked at her before a shallow smile appeared on his lips. He forgot about drying his hair as he continued to look at his girlfriend. It had been so long for him that he was barely hanging on to his sanity.

"Come here," James said as his grey eyes lazily looked at her who was sitting on the love seat in her room. Laura did not resist and walked towards him, the short chemise she was wearing highlighting her features even more. His gaze became darker as he watched her walk towards him. The see-through chemise enticing him to take it off. It was very difficult for him to not stand up and push her down on the bed. 

"Come here," James repeated as he patted his lap, which was bare because he did not tie his robe when he left the bathroom. Laura glanced at him before choosing to follow his orders. His mood seemed to be very particular, so she did not resist him. She wanted to see where he was going to take this.
