Baby Arya is going on a date," Ronald announced entering the dining room where Arya and their parents sat having their dinner.
Don't ever call me baby Arya again and don't be such a blabber mouth," she snapped at him.
You are yet to be 18 so darling you are still our baby Arya," he replied sitting beside her.
I will turn 18 in a flash, you all will be surprised," she said with an eye roll.
Arya, you are going on a date huh? Why aren't I aware of it? Mr Benson asked staring intently at her.
Dad, I was gonna tell you and also ask for your permission but wide mouthed Ronald beat me to it," she said eyeing her brother and he stuck out his tongue for her.
This guy you are going on a date with, who is he? Mr Benson inquired.
He's name is Jeremy, he's my schools head boy and the basket ball team captain," she replied.
Saying only his name would have being just fine than mentioning all his lame and irrelevant achievements, no one asked you," Ronald chirped in angrily.
He was angry that Arya is proud to boast of another boy that is not him.
Keep quiet Ronald, no one asked for your opinion," Mr Benson scolded and it was Arya's turn to stick out her tongue for him.
Thanks dad, he's always playing mini dad roles on me," she said rolling her eyes at him.
Will you shut up Arya, your brother is just being concerned, listen, with the few things you mentioned about your so called Jeremy, I can assure you that he isn't the type of guy you should be associating yourself with, they only play with girls Heart, he's gonna hurt you in the end," Mrs Benson fired at Arya.
Exactly mom, that's what I told her," Ronald said.
Shut up you too Ronald, you shouldn't even be saying anything because this is your category, you think I don't know about all the girls you deceive into your bed and eventually toss them away? Am not dumb boy, I know everything," she blasted.
Don't say such things about my son, it's not his fault that he's too hot that the girls can't resist him," their dad jumped to Ronald's rescue.
And you say that because he's like you right? Or do you think I don't know about all those ladies you are flirting with at work? I know everything man," she snapped at him.
Mom, you know all this and yet you are not mad at him? Arya asked.
That's because he's not screwing them, and why are you asking? Aren't you supposed to be more focused on your heart that is about to get played by your school's Mr popular? She fired at her.
Mom, is this some speak up and get blasted kind of thing now? Or were you offended at work? Ronald pouted and they all bursted into laughter.
That's plainly their mom's personality, she always knows the right words to say at any moment to make everyone laugh.
But seriously Arya, your mom and brother are right, such type of guys always think they are too hot and popular to be with only one girl, and therefore want to have a taste of every girl they come across," Mr Benson said.
Yes dad, I will be very careful, I promise," Arya replied.
Is it weird that am Wondering why this Jeremy guy is still alive till this moment? Mrs Benson asked faking a confused look and Ronald chuckled knowing that the statement is directed towards him.
You are not alone on that sweetheart, I also had a thought on that too, maybe he doesn't know the Jeremy guy," Mr Benson added.
Guys am right here you know, ask me directly," Ronald finally spoke up and they both bursted into laughter.
No one mentioned you though," their mom said with an eye roll.
You don't need to mention me, the handwriting on the wall was quite clear, anyway, I will answer you, yes I know the Jeremy guy, and yes he's still alive because our baby Arya pleaded with me to give her this one chance and that's what am doing," he replied.
And??? Mrs Benson asked knowing there's more to it.
And I gave her my rules, if he tries anything stupid, I will kill him," Ronald said and they chuckled.
Seems am the subject of this dinner, let me leave you guys to it, am going to bed," she said standing up and went over to kiss their cheeks.
Goodnight y'all," she added turning around to leave.
Wait, I think no one is asking the most important question, , when is the supposed date going to happen? Mrs Benson asked.
Not yet, I told him I will think about it, I didn't want to appear cheap," she replied and walked away.
Am proud of you darling!! Their mom shouted after her.
You see, am a good influence on her, if not for my strict actions this past years, she would have jumped cheaply on him like all other girls do," Ronald said and they stared blankly at him.
Aren't you gonna tell me you are proud of me too? He asked with a pout.
Oh am proud of you my love," Mrs Benson said and he smiled.
Alright, I will have to retire for the night now, goodnight dad, goodnight mom," he said standing up.
Goodnight love," Mrs Benson replied.
Sleep well my boy," Mr Benson added.
He kissed their cheeks and walked away.
*******
Arya was deep asleep when she heard a knock on her door.
She groaned angrily and stood up, grumbling and cursing whoever it is that woke her up from her sleep and terrific dream.
She opened the door only to see Ronald standing shirtless wearing only his pajamas trouser, his abs, chest and broad shoulders and muscles exposed to her hungry eyes.
Great, just great, here is the subject of her dream standing gloriously teasing her eyes.
Ronald watched her ogle at his body with sleepy eyes and it immediately sent waves of pleasure down his spine.
What are you doing here," she asked finally looking up to his face.
I can't sleep, I tried forcing myself to sleep but it's not just working, I ain't feeling sleepy," he pouted using his hand to massage his forehead like a child.
Why is he getting cuter than I used to know him," Arya thought to herself.
Her eyes suddenly went to his hand.
Oh my God, Ronald what happened to your hand? She panicked noticing the bruises on his hand.
Oh this? It's nothing," he replied and hid his hand in his back.
What do you mean nothing? Come here," she quickly dragged his hand and lead him into the room closing the door.
She gently pushed him down on the bed and went to carry the first aid box in a corner in her room.
Ronald was carried away in the moment as he imagined they are both naked, and she pushed him down on the bed to climb him and ride him to the moon and back.
Ronald are you okay? You are staring into space," her voice snapped him back to reality.
Yeah am fine," he replied flashing her a small smile.
She knelt down beside him and held his hand gently then started applying each of the box content on his hand just like their mom had thought them.
Immediately she held his hand, he shifted uncomfortably on the bed trying so much not to have an erection.
It would really be embarrassing for her to see him like that.
Seeing how serious and focused she is while working gently on his hand, he just wanted nothing more than to hold her tight in his arms and cuddle her till the next morning.
Stop getting into fights Ronald, I don't like seeing bruises on your body," she scolded wrapping up his hand with the plaster.
Awwn, you sound like a caring girlfriend," he teased.
More like a caring sister you dumbo," she snapped standing up and went to drop the box back to it's location.
Thank you so much Arya, you are a darling," he said and she smiled.
Can I sleep here tonight? He asked.
No, it's not proper, go back to your room," she replied.
Please, Arya, please, I can't seem to get a good Sleep in my room, but right here, right now, I feel so sleepy," he yawned and collapsed on her bed.
Arya let out a sigh climbing the bed and laid down backing him.
Several minutes passed, and she couldn't fall asleep," she turned around and almost screamed out in shock on seeing Ronald's eyes wide open staring at her.
I thought you said you were feeling sleepy," she asked.
Maybe not anymore," he replied cockily.
Her eyes suddenly landed on his broad chest.
Don't just stare, you can touch it if you want," he said.
She ignored him and continued staring.
Or you wanna lay your head on it and sleep? You are gonna get a good sleep trust me," he continued teasing her.
She slowly moved closer to him and placed her head on his chest.
Oh the feeling is heavenly," she jubilates inwardly.
Ronald seized the opportunity to wrap his arms around her while rubbing her hair affectionately.
Goodnight Ronald," she whispered.
Goodnight love," he replied and slowly, they both drifted off to sleep.
