C2 Chapter 2

"So sorry I'm late Amy." Mia said as she made her way to hug Amy.

"It's no issue love. I understand. Except maybe there was something else?" Amy asked with raised eyebrows.

It was clear from her expression that she thought Mia was doing something else which made her late to her best friend's engagement party.

"What do you mean by something else?" Mia asked obviously flustered.

It was true that there was something else that had made her late. She had come back late from work and was getting ready for Amy's engagement party but she took extra care. She made sure her make up was flawless and the dress she wore exposed all her curves. All this was because she wanted someone to pay extra attention to her even though she knew it would never be possible seeing as he was interested in men.

"Your makeup looks especially pretty today." Amy said to Mia.

"I need a drink." Mia said trying to avoid the conversation as she walked to get one.

"Where is Mia going?" Bryce, Amy's fiancee asked as he appeared beside her.

After their break up in college, both of them had gotten back together due to the interceding of Nate and Mia. They were now engaged and expecting a baby. Amy planned to have the wedding after the baby was born since she was already showing.

"To get a drink." She replied as she leaned into him.

"Do you think that maybe Mia and Nate might have feelings for each other?"

Bryce looked own at his fiancee and laughed.

"Nate is as gay as they come or whatever. Even at this moment he is staring at that young detective's ass."

"True but sometimes I get the feeling that maybe he likes Mia or she likes him? I mean her make up is always flawless when he's around."

"Are we talking about the same Mia? The one who dresses in the presence of Nate? The one who drools on him? The one who changes boyfriends like her undies?" Bryce asked his fiancee incredulously.

"You did not need to compare her relationships with her undies." Amy scolded him.

"I know but I really don't see what you see."

"Maybe we should ask Teresa? I think Mia is trying not to make it so obvious but anytime we are going to a party or club with Nate she dresses especially nice."

Bryce pondered on this for some time. He really did not notice anything his fiancee was saying but there could be some truth in what she was saying.

"Maybe we should really ask Teresa." Bryce said to her as they made their way to Teresa.

Teresa was Mia's colleague. They had met when they started working at the same hospital and just cliqued. She was also tan like Nate and really beautiful emphasis on her eyes. They were hazel in colour. She was average height for females and talked a lot but that was also part of her charm.

Nate stood in a corner of the ballroom where the engagement party was being held. Bryce's family was rich and since he had taken over the family business, his family decided to go big on his engagement party. Amy's family was also present. She had six sisters and they all looked alike. He could hardly differentiate Rita from Sara.

He had also noticed when Mia had walked into the party. He was beginning to notice everything about Mia. Every move she made in the sensous gown made him tight in his pants.

The black and gold gown Mia had worn was sleeveless and short. It also put all her curves on display. Nate noticed when she laughed at something Bryce's brother had said.

He could never forget that voice. Her laughter was like music to his ears and her luscious lips were a nice shade of red. Her hair fell to her shoulders in waves and the smoky eye thing she did made her green irises pop out. Like he had said, after the talk they had in UCLA, they had quickly become fast friends. He enjoyed talking to her and being around her although recently, he could not stand the thought of her without getting hard.

He was not ready to destroy their relationship and he could not understand why he would be attracted to her. He had dreams about her every night and could hardly sleep sometimes. Her lips wrapped around his cock or her sweet voice as he drove deeply into her.

Nate needed to stop thinking about his best friend that way so he resulted in staring at the young detective's butt. The detective was a childhood friend of Mia and most times when they talk, Nate gets jealous.

"I'm not important enough for a hug?" Mia said as she stood next to him with a champagne in her hand.

"Do you want a hug?" Nate asked with a smile.

"So you could destroy this fabulous clothing? No please."

"It's free though." Nate said with a shrug.

"I've missed you."

"Yeah me too. Are you sure we shouldn't do that hug right now?" Nate asked her as they made their way to the bar.

"You never wanted to give me the hug." Mia said to him.

"How was everything?" She asked him.

Nate was a famous chef he travelled around most times cooking on shows and for influential people. He also had a restaurant around which had the best Italian dishes Mia had ever tasted. He had been away for one of the shows. A show which Mia had watched so she had the gist about what happened but she loved hearing from him.

"It was nice actually better than the last one. The staffs we're fully accommodating."

"Okay. Now that's settled, why were you staring at Alex's butt." Mia asked him.

Alex was the young detective who owned the butt Nate had been staring at before Mia had approached him.

Alex was an attractive man with dark blonde hair and brown eyes.

"It's an attractive butt."

"He's straight."

"Doesn't mean I can't appreciate a good bubble butt. And those abbs, sweetheart have you seen the man?" Nate asked her.

"I've known him since we were kids Nate and I get your point." Mia said with a chuckle.

Nate smiled "How was Blake?"

"We broke up."

"What happened this time?"

"According to him, I was not giving the relationship my all. I think love is not for me Nate." Mia said with a sigh.

While Nate hated anything that could lead to commitment, his friend wanted it. She wanted a relationship like Bryce and Amy's but all her boyfriend's had been trash giving one excuse or another and breaking up with her.

"Love is for everyone honey." Nate replied her with a small voice.

"Why can't I go for someone who would love me for me?" She asked him with a shaky voice.

Nate turned her face towards him using her chin. As he looked into her eyes, he saw unshed tears and it made his heart ache.

"You will find somebody one day. And they will love you like you want. Your exex have all been trash do not cry for them. You are an excellent girl Mia and anybody would be lucky to have you." Nate said to her.

'Anybody would be lucky to have her except him.' she thought to herself.

Mia wondered why and when she had fallen for Nate. It was very obvious that he was not interested in her. Even with all the dresses and make up, he was still staring at men.

She stared at his lips seeing as they were inches apart from her own. His firm lips which she had imagined kissing since the first day they had met. Mia was still lost in her thoughts when she noticed Nate was stiff and soon enough he was withdrawing his hand from her chin.

Mia coughed and decided to lighten the mood to release tension. She would not feel bad that Nate was appalled by the idea of kissing her. She was sure she saw disgust flash through his eyes before he released her chin.

"Found who you would be taking home tonight?" Mia asked jokingly.

"Not really but maybe before the night ends."

They stayed in each other's company for some time discussing mangas, animes and everything that could possibly be up for discussion before they went their various ways.

Nate made his way to Amy and gave her a hug.

"You're leaving." Amy said. It was a statement and not a question.

Nate smiled "I'm really tired. I would love to stay but I need rest."

"I understand." Amy said with a sigh.

"I'll stop by the house soon but I really need to rest after that plane ride. Congratulations once again."

"Thank you."

"You know I was actually wondering when you were going to ask the question." Nate said to his friend, Bryce who smirked.

"You knew when I was going to ask her, Nate." Bruce said to him.

"Yeah I did. I just thought it would be sooner." He said with a chuckle.

"Fuck you Nate."

"Doggy, reverse cowgirl? Take your pick honey." Nate replied him with a wink.

"I said fuck you not I was going to fuck you." Bryce grumbled out.

"This one. No sense of humor." Nate said to Amy as he kissed her cheek.

He bid them goodbye and left the party. He needed to clear his head. It was true he was jet lagged but his main reason for leaving the party was to get as far from Mia as he could and fast. That moment at the bar, Nate's mind had travelled for miles.

He imagined using his tongue to fuck that mouth. How roughly he would kiss her. He also saw her going down on him with those luscious lips wrapped around his cock. He was disguted with himself. He had wanted to kiss Mia so badly that he could not comprehend it.

He wondered why he was behaving like this. Why was his libodo so active around her? They have been friends for over two years now and it was only recently these illicit thoughts started tormenting him. Tormenting would be a good word to describe the dreams. It really did not help that he knew how Mia looked like naked. She changed in his presence which he supposed was normal for any girl who had a gay best friend. Mia trusted Nate and he could not destroy that trust. Even if his parents had been supportive, coming out as gay had not been easy.

Some people still frowned upon the fact that one may be attracted to someone of the same sex. He could understand if he was bisexual but he had never been attracted to any girl before.

Or maybe his bisexual tendencies were just appearing right now. Maybe he needed to go to a strip club Nate thought to himself as he stepped into his shower.

He would begin his journey of self discovery the next day but first he needed rest. After the shower, Nate went to bed and immediately fell asleep.

His sleep would have been peaceful but Nate dreamt of Mia that night. She was wearing the same dress she wore to the engagement party. Her green eyes were filled with lust as she undressed herself in Nate's presence.

She was wearing a black lingerie Nate had seen in her room many times as she went on her knees to take his cock into her mouth.

She dropped open mouthed kisses on it and wrapped her delicate hands around it. She took his full cock into her her mouth and swallowed down Nate's cum without missing a single drop.

Nate woke up and checked his time. It was just past six in the morning and he was really turned on from that dream so he took a cold shower.

His attraction to Mia was something he could not not admit to himself. He needed to rid himself of these thoughts. He could not violate her in any way not even in his thoughts or dreams.
