As they continued their arguing, I laughed all the way into the bathroom and I shut the door.
Chapter Fifteen:Sickeningly Sweet
Liberty
I was about to kick Fate’s ass. I could clearly see that he planned to literally be a cock-block in this new relationship I had with Belle. I pulled my boxer briefs on and glanced over at him.
He grinned at me.
“Don’t you smirk at me,babybrother,” I snapped. “I don't want you in the middle of this.”
Fate shrugged. “First off, I am the oldest. Two… I’m helping with the wedding. And three… I am going to town with the both of you, so you’d better just get used to it.”
“You are enjoying this just a little too much,” I sniped at him as I tugged my jeans on.
“Hell yeah, I am. You know how boring it is here, man. But now I have this chaperone gig to look forward to.” He beamed at me.
“Chaperone gig,” I mumbled with growl as I grabbed my boots and sat down.
Belle came out of the restroom and looked around. “Have you seen my sandals?”
I’d seen them earlier. Setting my boots down, I knelt and reached under the bed to grab her sandals. “Sit.” I motioned her to the chair I just vacated.
She moved over, sat down then reached for the shoes.
I pulled them back. “Let me.” I set the sandals down and grabbed her foot.
“Really?” She laughed. “Liberty, you don’t have to—”
“I don’t have to, no. But I want to,” I replied as I grasped her ankle and rubbed my fingers along the sole of her foot. Our eyes met as I gently massaged her heel.
“Are you kidding with this, Lib?” Fate interrupted my silent concentration.
I gave him no response as I eased the sandal on then took her other foot and massaged it for a minute. Finally, I put the other one on.
Reaching over, she used her fingers to gently push my hair back from my forehead as she gave me a huge smile. “No one has ever done that for me before.”
Catching her hand, I turned it over and kissed her palm. “Get used to it.” I couldn't seem to take my eyes off of her or my hands either.
“Well, crap…You two are not going to fool anyone,” Fate interjected. “You went from almost coming to blows to Prince Charmingass and Cinderfuckingrella!”
Belle laughed. “Yeah, but no one is here right now, Fate.”
“That's right, so knock it off, will ya?” I snapped at him. “Ruining my romantic moment like that.”
He shook his head. “From what I can see, this relationship is gonna be hard to hide. You two almost beat Justice and Scarlet when it comes to sickening sweetness.”
I looked from him to Belle as I felt excited about this statement. “Did you hear that, babe?” I asked her. “We are sickeningly sweet!” I honestly felt proud of this fact, considering we had so much trouble getting along before.
Belle nodded and beamed at me. “I sure did! Isn’t that wonderful? We might make it after all.”
“You two are insane,” Fate complained. “Get a shirt on Liberty and let’s get moving.”
I kept smiling as I went over to my dresser.
“You will both need to go back to bickering and disagreeing, or I’m gonna have trouble keeping my food down.” Fate advised as he looked disgusted. “So, no more of this weird romantic crap or whatever Liberty is calling it.”
“I just never thought he knew how to be romantic and sweet,” Belle said.
