Chapter 22 - Why do we always meet in bathrooms?

He is not like the boys she have met, his eyes, his hair, lips, a defined six pack abs and a narrow waistline. He is the type of handsome every girl dreams of.

He was the last person Nancy could have ever thought I would find at her best friend's house.

She had not met anyone more charming, he moved his body gracefully as he gently arranged the washed plates in the racks. She stood there watching every movement from wiping his hand with a small towel to swinging the towel in a swirling motion.

Nancy gulped and stood still.

"Nancy?"

She finally heard my name being called.

Nancy turned around and saw Tara who stared at her weirdly and confused.

As her eyes shifted from Tara back to the half-naked guy across the room, he was now staring back at me.

They weren't strangers but it felt like were at that moment.

"That is my brother, Nolan", Tara introduced.

Nancy's jaw dropped and my eyes widened at what Tara had just said.

"Your Brother???", she repeated almost loudly.

"Yes…", Tara said while walking towards Nolan whose suprised eyes were also fixed at Nancy.

"I told you to always wear a shirt, showing off your abs to everyone, show off", Tara said while throwing the kitchen towel at Nolan.

He shifted his gaze from Nancy and looked at her sister.

"Friends?", he repeated.

Tara shook her head and approached Nancy who was still standing at the same place, she held her hand and walked with her towards the living room.

Nancy turned her head and took another glance at Nolan, he was also watching them walk away.

"NOLAN IS TARA'S BROTHER!!!", Nancy yelled out in her mind, and her confused expression had betrayed her.

It was at that moment, the dots started connecting. They both have green eyes, they both dress so great and they have the same nose.

Nancy had sat there with mixed emotions, ignoring every conversation her friends were having, she had no idea what to feel, the boy she like is her best friend's brother.

How would Tara feel when she know about all this? Why on earth is he Tara's brother out of everyone in the world.

"Nolan looks so fine, if I like boys.. I would not mind going for him", Jada made a joke and this immediately called Nancy's attention back to her friends.

Tara who was switching on the tv, narrowed her eyes at Jada.

"He is literally younger than you are, he is just about to be 18, you pervert…", Tara said.

"Well thank God I like girls….", Jada added while laughing.

"He is younger!!!", Nancy repeated but this time loudly.

Jada and Tara turned their face to Nancy.

"Is he that old looking?… I bet people be thinking he is older than I am, I am two years older than that prick", Tara answered.

"So are we ready!!! I am about to start the movie", Tara added while sitting next to her friends.

"I will use the bathroom… can you…", Nancy had not finished her sentence when she was immediately interrupted by Tara's response.

"We are definitely not waiting for you…", she quickly said and described the bathroom to Nancy who immediately left.

She walked towards a narrow hall, following her friends's direction at the same time thinking about what just happened.

Nancy finally found the bathroom, she opened the door and saw him washing his hands with the tap open.

"Nolan?", she said in a surprised tone.

He turned and saw Nancy staring at him, still holding the door.

They both were out of words as they kept eye contact for a second, she was about to turn to leave when his raspy voice made her wait and turn to look at him.

"Wait Nancy", he had said.

Nancy exhaled deeply as she glanced around the bathroom, her hands at the back pocket of her pants.

"You have a lovely house", she said trying to act normal.

"I didn't know you were Tara's friend… when did you two? I remember she was friends with some loud girls, never knew you two were friends and the other girl I saw back in school too", Nolan said out of curiosity.

They were both standing in few feets away from each other.

Nancy looked at him, her eyes fixed on his and trying hard not to look down at his naked chest.

"You mean Jada?", She asked.

"Oh that's her name? Yeah I saw her step in for you the day Jackson was being a dumb a**", he answered.

Nancy's eye raised her eye brows and wondered if he had pitied her that day or laugh along with Stacy while watching her get bullied but Nolan does not seem like the type that would mock her.

He might be seen with multiple girls, but something about him seem genuine.

"So you must be older than I am then, if you are Tara's friend… you don't look like it", Nolan mocked, while curling up the corner of his mouth.

Nancy smirked at him.

"I will be eighteen next month… June 20th, I don't think I am that small for you am I?", he asked.

Nancy looked at him and judging from his dreamy eyes, he seemed serious.

She wondered what he meant by what he just said, so she decided to ask.

"What do you mean?", she asked.

Nolan stared at her for a second before smiling and looking away, "never mind Nancy" he said.

There was a short time silence between them and glancing around.

"I should get back to my friends….", Nancy said looking at Nolan, her eyes dropped at his abs and oh lord, they were perfect, she controlled her thirst for him and immediately turned to leave.

"Nancy", he called again, but this time there was something about the way he called her that made her heart raced, she paused and looked back at him.

He took a step forward and fixed his eyes on her.

Nancy didn't know what was about to happen or what he planned to do to her at that moment but whatever it was, she would risk it all.

A sexy half-naked boy, with seductive green eyes staring at her in a fancy bathroom, what could be more perfect, who would not fall into temptation?

Nancy didn't blink she stared at Nolan and then suddenly he stretched out his arm.

"Give me your phone, I will type in my number".
