    Adam allowed the blonde to sort out the sheets while he went and raided his cupboards for snacks. His arms were full by the time he came back and the fort was all set up and ready. All they needed to do was pick out a movie and get comfortable. When the blonde said he could enter as long as he took his shoes off he couldn't help but laugh at the rule they had created when they were younger. obeying he kicked his shoes off before throwing the snacks into the fort and crawling in.

    "Snug," he smiled as he turned his head to look at her a wide smile spreading across his face. "So what movie are we watching?" he thought it only fair that considering she did most of the work on the fort she could pick the movie.
    "I was born ready," she joked as the countdown on the screen began. At the beep the two of them were off and racing. Freya didn't really know what she was doing she was just trying to follow the track and so far she was doing alright, she hadn't crashed which was the main thing. Looking up at the screen she saw she was coming up into fifth position and she had no idea how she had managed that. Looking down she noticed that Oliver was one up from her.

    "Shit!" she muttered as she held her button with such force she was surprised it didn't break. She continued to follow the track passing several cars that put her in third. She straightened up on the seat so she was sitting on the edge. Her eyes were glued to the screen to determined to get to first place she had just made it to second when the game ended. Oliver had won. "Bugger it," she muttered knowing full well that she would have to cook dinner.

    Oliver had also been sitting on the edge of the couch, his thumbs were pushing the buttons to keep him in front of Freya. "Come on! Come on!" He grinned widely when the finish line came into sight on the screen, "Yes!" He called out in joy as he jumped up from the couch, he knew he shouldn't but he couldn't help himself from doing his dorky happy dance. Freya knew that he loved his happy dance and did it whenever he could, at least this time he didn't try to sing about how he won like he has done before.

    "Come on, Frey." He took her hands into his own and gently pulled her up from the couch, "Dance with me." He smiled warmly as he held her hand and twirled her around the room, he pulled her closer to him and rested his hand on the small of her back. He danced around the room with her which made her laugh, Oliver wished he could always make her laugh because he loved listening to her. The way her eyes crinkled as she laughed and he loved when he noticed some tears forming in the outer corner of her eyes.
    Charlotte smiled when Adam joined her in the pile of blankets and pillows, she had already selected the movie she wanted to watch and had already turned the television on. "We're watching Divergent," She smiled as she had already seen the movie but she had really enjoyed it, she knew that Adam hadn't seen it because he had been busy when she went to see it at the cinema. She pressed play and instantly curled up beside her best friend, she opened a bag of chips and held them in between them so they could share.

    She took a handful of salty chips and ate them as the movie begun, "You'll love it. It's filled with action," She told him quietly as she didn't want to miss a thing as the movie played, she knew Adam loved movies and shows that had a lot of action in it. Which Divergent did so she hoped that he would at least enjoy it a little bit.

    Adam nodded his head looking down at Charlotte, "I had better otherwise there will be hell to pay," he joked playfully as he felt her snuggle closer to her, automatically his arm around around her as the two lay in silence as the movie started. Adam remembered she had invited him to come and see the movie with him but he had been busy working overtime at work as well as working with his bandmates.

    However what they were doing now was a million times better then sitting in a dark movie theatre. He nibbled on a few chips and opened a packet of Killer Python lollies, placing the head in his mouth and gradually chewing his way to the tail.

    He had to admit though the movie was pretty good, Charlotte definitely knew him well.
    Freya laughed, really laughed, while her and Oliver danced around the room. It felt like it had been years since she had laughed a real belly laugh, laugh until her sides ached and she had tears cascading down her cheeks out of happiness. Once the dancing had stopped the two fell down onto the couch Freya trying desperately to catch her breath before speaking to the dark haired male.

    "So what do you want me to make for dinner? Is there anything you specifically want?" she asked considering she had lost the challenge and this was her punishment. Not that she minded too much she enjoyed cooking.

    Oliver smiled as he looked over at Freya as he inhaled deeply so he could catch his breathe, "How about spaghetti and meatballs?" He asked as Freya made the best spaghetti and meatballs, he could seriously eat the dish every single day and he'd never grow sick of it. He had tried to cook her recipe but it didn't taste the same, so now he just waited until she cooked some and gave him the leftovers.

    "Did you need any help? I can keep you company and look pretty," Oliver grinned as he gave his best friend a gentle nudge with his elbow, they could still talk while she cooked so she wouldn't get bored. "If Tristan is going to have a fit that you're spending time with me, you can go. I'll just miss you that's all," He stuck his bottom lip out at her as he didn't want her to leave, but he wasn't going to be like Tristan and keep Freya all to himself which is what Tristan always did.

    But he did have a feeling that Freya was going to stay there with him, he wanted to come across as the good best friend which he was. He just hoped that Freya saw Tristan for how he truly was, then she would leave him and Oliver would have his best friend back in his life like he used to.
    Charlotte smiled as she tilted her head up to look at Adam, "Then I'll go to hell and I'll pay up." She told him smiling warmly before she cuddled into his body, she knew that Adam would like the movie. It may not become his favourite but it was one he'd be able to sit through without complaining about it, like he did whenever she convinced him to watch a chick flick with her. She placed some more chips into her mouth as she watched the film happily, after she was finished with the chips she reached over to take a Killer Python out of the bag Adam was holding.

    However she started from the tail end as the head part was red, which was her favourite flavor of any lolly so she wanted to keep it for last. She took her time eating the lolly and it was about half way through the movie when Charlotte shifted so she could curl up even more into Adam's body.

    Her head was resting on his chest and her legs were resting against his, her body was molded against his and she seemed to fitted perfectly in his arms.

    (sorry I went missing for ages)

    Adam looked down at the blonde that was snuggled up close to his body. The male noticed how well she moulded against his body and how comfortable it felt to have her in his arms. Automatically the male bent his neck and pressed a gentle kiss to the top of her head a smile spreading across his face.

    Adam didn't want to forget this moment. It was the one of the few treasured moments he now had with Charlotte considering most of her time was spent with her boyfriend Nathan. Wrapping an arms around the blonde he lay on his back drawing her closer so her head was resting on his chest. Even though he watched the film upside down he didn't mind.

    It took every ounce of strength for him not to blurt out that this is how it should be, this is how he wanted it to be. He wanted to spend ever waking moment with the blonde, he wanted to have cute movie dates, he wanted to build blanket forts and eat junk food on the weekend. He wanted Charlotte more then anything. He loved her but he was too afraid to say anything because she was already taken.

    By the twat Nathan.
    "No I am staying I am spending the day with you and Tristan can get the hell over it," Freya stated as she got to her feet, the female already knew that Oliver would suggest spaghetti and meatballs he always did. "Come on you, come and look pretty in the kitchen, considering when it comes to cooking that is about the only thing you are good at." she joked playfully nudging him with her hip as the two walked toward the kitchen together.

    Quickly she began pulling the ingredients from the cupboards, the pasta, sauce, several herbs before heading to the fridge and pulling out the mince to make the balls with. She looked around the kitchen for a bottle of red wine but couldn't find it. "Oli, do you have a bottle of red?"

    (No, that's fine)

    Oliver didn’t bother making a comment back to Freya, it was true. He couldn’t cook to save his life, he could make toast and two-minute noodles. “I look pretty everywhere I go, it’s a natural talent of mine.” He grinned as he followed her into the kitchen and pushed himself up onto the counter, so he could sit there and watch her cook delicious food for them. “It’s in the pantry, bottom shelf right at the back.” He told her as he had taken to hiding his wine now, in case he had friends over and they wanted to steal his wine.

    Of course he’d let Freya drink as much wine as she wanted, hell he would even give her his hidden treats that no one knew about. His treats were mostly chocolate related snacks, and he would willingly give them all to her but no one else was allowed.

    He watched as she moved around his kitchen with ease, if only she knew how he felt about her. How he could treat her so much better than Tristan, he’d treat her like a Queen every single day. Although he wouldn’t be able to buy her as many gifts as Tristan could, that was his only down fall. He didn’t have as much money as her sleazy boyfriend, but Freya had never been one who liked receiving expensive gifts. Tristan either didn’t know that or he didn’t care. “Frey… don’t get upset with me, but why do you stay with him?” He asked her as he did want to know, Tristan wasn’t good enough for her but she didn’t see that.
    Charlotte smiled when she felt the kiss that Adam pressed to the top of her head, she cuddled with him more when he laid down. Her head instantly rested against his chest and while she watched the movie, she also listened to his heartbeat. “I wish we could always do this,” She whispered to him as her body seemed to fit perfectly with his, it has been something that she noticed before but never said anything about it. She didn’t want to ruin their friendship by mentioning it, Adam didn’t see her as anything more than a friend as Charlotte knew that.

    “I never want to leave,” She shifted so she could look at his handsome face, a small pout forming on her lips as she’d be more than happy to never leave the blanket fort again. Sadly that wouldn’t be happening, they both had things to do but at least she had him for now and that was enough for her.

    As much as Adam wanted to tell her there and now that she didn't have to he would be a fool. She had a boyfriend waiting for her and he couldn't stop her. He didn't want to be that guy, he wanted Charlotte to leave him by her own choice not by him trying to persuade her.

    "Unfortunately Charlotte we both know you have to. You have a fella waiting for you." he forced a smile across his face as he looked down at her his dark eyes locking with her lighter ones. However until you have to leave we can do whatever you want."
    Freya was pouring the wine into the mince when Oliver asked her the question.The truth was that Freya wasn't sure why she was with Tristan, for a while now she had been questioning herself. Sure he was always surprising her with gifts, and the sex was unbelievable but there were a few things that he was doing that was making her question everything.

    He was more controlling, more possessive, he wouldn't let her go out very often if she did she would always have to wear something more on the conservative side then what she would normally wear. Today had been a fight with him before he finally gave in with a grumble before grabbing the keys and leaving her fuming and in tears.

    "Because I love him..." as soon as she said it she felt hollow, she didn't feel like she used to when she told a person her love for Tristan. She wasn't busting at the seams with happiness, instead she felt deflated and unsure.

    Oliver knew that he should keep his mouth shut, but this was Freya. His best friend, the person he loved the most in the whole world. So no, he didn’t keep his mouth shut. “Do you though? Do you really love him?” He asked as he could tell that things had changed between the dickhead and Freya, she was glowing when she talked about the jerk and Oliver could tell that her heart wasn’t in the relationship any longer. Which did make him happy, not that he’d show that to her. Not yet anyway, besides he was certain she knew exactly how he felt about Tristan. He has been very vocal about how he felt about Tristan.

    Sliding off the counter he moved over to the stove, he grabbed a teaspoon from the drawer and quickly tasted the sauce before she could stop him. It was delicious, not that it surprised him. “Maybe you should take a break,” He suggested to her as he tenderly moved some of her bright red hair back over her shoulder, he let the tips of his fingers brush over the soft skin of her neck. “I could talk to him, tell him you need a break and that he shouldn’t ever contact you again.” He was serious but put on a goofy smile, the smile was only for her sake because he’d call Tristan in a second if Freya asked him to.
    Charlotte rolled her eyes and made a small noise, things between her and Nathan weren’t the best. They were fighting a lot these days, something she hadn’t told Adam about because she knew he would get angry. Nathan had also started spending more time out at clubs and bars, he went without Charlotte and sometimes he wouldn’t even invite her. She had a feeling in her gut, a bad feeling that was making her not trust Nathan anymore. She hadn’t caught him cheating, but she couldn’t brush off this feeling she had. He was also always sending texts to people, and he wouldn’t tell her who it was. When she did ask he’d say it was a man friend of his who she did know, but the look in his eyes and the smile on his face told her otherwise.

    It was how Nathan used to look and smile at her when they first started dating, she never got that look anymore. “I’d rather stay here,” Charlotte mumbled mostly to herself as she rested her head back against Adam’s chest, she did smile when he told her that she could do whatever she wanted. “Can I bake something?” She asked knowing that he would let her, especially because it meant she’d leave something nice and sweet behind for him to have.

    Adam's brow quirked in a questioning manner when the blonde said she would rather stay with him, that sent alarm bells off in his head. Something wasn't right. What had Nathan done? He didn't get a chance to ask anything before the blonde asked if she was able to bake something.

    "Sure, I would love some of your super, yummy, chewy chocolate chip cookies... please..." he begged giving her the best puppy dog eyes he could do. When she laughed he instantly felt better, it was better to see her smiling and laughing them sad and crying so for the next however long he was going to make her as happy as possible. However he also wanted to get to the bottom of things between her and Nathan. He might wait a little while before he starts asking questions.

    Turning the television off the two clambered out of their blanket fort and headed toward the kitchen Charlotte leading the way. She knew her way around his kitchen better than he did. He watched as she began to pull things out of the cupboards and his fridge starting on the cookies.

    "Charlotte..." he asked as she was measuring out the flour. "What's going on? With you and Nathan I mean?" he couldn't help it he was impatient and he needed to know if he had to go and have some serious words with his best friends boyfriend.
    Freya was torn. She still loved Tristan but things had changed and she didn't know how she felt. "I..." she began but she couldn't find the words to finish the sentence. "Hey..." she scolded as the curly haired male reached around her and grabbed a spoonful of sauce. "bastard." she laughed as she continued to stir the sauce before her. When Oliver mentioned a break she had to fight the urge to nod her head. She had thought about taking a break from Tristan but she wasn't sure.

    The red head felt as the male moved her hair to her side, such a sweet and tender gesture, something she hadn't received in months. It was small, gentle and sweet. Closing her eyes she felt the tingles run down her spine. What was happening? This was Oliver, her best friend and he was stirring up this feelings. Feelings that she hadn't felt for a while now. Clearing her throat she turned to the male and saw the goofy smile on his face.

    "Thank you Olli... if I ever need help you'll be the first I ask... but for now... can you please get me some pasta... the water is bubbling." she watched as the male turned and walked toward his pantry. Exhaling she ran her fingers through her hair and tried to calm her racing thoughts. She and to act as if his gesture had no effect on her... at least until she was out of his company.

    Oliver was the first one to noticed Freya’s hesitation when he mentioned she should take a break from Tristan, but he didn’t say anything else. Hopefully the thought was now in her mind and he would need to stand back and watch what happened next, hopefully Freya would decide to take a break from her asshole boyfriend. Reaching around her when she wasn’t paying attention, she stole a rather large spoonful of the sauce and quickly shoved the spoon into his mouth. It tasted amazing like it always did, “That’s what you get for not paying attention.” He commented giving her a goofy but cheeky smile.

    Before he moved away from her, his fingers brushed some of her hair back over her shoulder. He hadn’t even been thinking about what he was doing, it just happened and he honestly thought nothing about it. It wasn’t the first time he had done something like that, but every time he did it gave him such a warm and comforting feeling. Like he was meant to be the one who could touch Freya in that way, tender and soft.

    Grabbing the bag of pasta, he cut the top off the bag. “How much?” He asked her and grinned when she said half the bag, instead he ‘accidently’ poured the whole bag of pasta into the boiling water. “Oops, guess I now have left overs for tomorrow.” He laughed as it had been his plan after all to get some left overs, but he couldn’t help it. Freya cooked so well and he didn’t, he had tried several times but failed miserably. Nothing he cooked tasted anywhere near as good as what she cooked for him.
    “You’re going to get chubby if you ask for these cookies all the time,” Charlotte teased Adam as these were his favourite cookies and he always asked if she could make him a fresh batch, making her way into the kitchen she pulled out everything that she needed and set it all up on the counter so she was organised. She knew Adam would want to know about her and Nathan, she was surprised she had kept it to herself for so long as Adam was the first person she went to if she had any news or just wanted to have a talk.

    “It’s nothing, I’m just over reacting.” She started off telling him as she didn’t want to give him another reason to not like Nathan, but she needed to tell someone about what has been going on in her relationship. “For the past month I feel like all we do is fight and argue, it’s constant and I can’t even remember the last time we went out on a date.” She poured the flour through a shive and into a bowl, while she turned the mixer on to mix the eggs with the sugar and the milk before she added some vanilla paste to the wet ingredients.

    She was trying her hardest not to get upset, there had been too many times recently where she had cried because of Nathan. “He’s been staying out much later, apparently it’s for work and he’d having meeting with clients who can only see him at night.” She hadn’t checked Nathan’s phone yet but she had a feeling he was cheating on her with someone else, part of her wanted to know if he was but then the other part was too scared to find out because it would hurt.

    Adam laughed nodding his head when the blonde told him he was going to get chubby. "But wouldn't I be cute chubby? I think I could rock it... but I do love my abs made of steel... you know I am Superman right!" he joked making reference to the DC Comics superhero that everyone knew about.

    The male followed Charlotte into the kitchen and watched as she set up his mouth salivating already at the thought of having cookies baking in the oven filling his house with the smell of chocolate and sugar and all things nice. When Charlotte spoke about her boyfriend Adam was quiet as he listened to her. What she was telling him didn't sound healthy. Adam knew she had to get out of there or at least take a break from him, it was stressing her out, and hurting her he could tell. He had known the blonde for years and he knew when she was hurting.

    Walking up beside her the male wrapped an arm around her waist and drew her close, pulling her away from her cooking, he didn't care if she had flour on her hands she needed a hug.

    "Charlotte. I don't want to sound out of place here but I have a feeling I might. The guy doesn't deserve you, if he is being secretive there is normally a reason for it and not a good one. I don't want to see you hurting..." he pulled away and looked into her eyes. "You deserve to be with someone who will treat you like the Princess you are. Not like trash. By the sounds of it that is exactly what Nathan is doing. I can only tell you what I think is the right idea but in the end it is up to you... and to be honest I think the best thing to do is to get away from this guy as quick as possible."
    "Oliver! You are terrible!" she scolded the male as he took another spoonful of sauce but she couldn't help the smile that spread across her face at his playful nature. She turned back to her pot and threw a few more ingredients in there. As she was doing that she felt the male move her hair to the side once again his fingers running over her skin causing her to shiver involuntary.

    When she told him to place half a bag of the pasta in the sauce she knew he would do the whole packet. She shook her head. "You're lucky we're friends." she pointed out before a laugh broke from her lips. She watched the curly haired male place the lid back on the pot of salted water and she placed the lid on her simmering sauce.

    Turning around she looked at the male, he was humming to himself as he searched though his cupboards for what she assumed were two bowls. Walking up behind him she wrapped her arms around his back in a hug and rested her between his shoulder blades. The two stood in silence and that was all the red head needed.

    "I am terrible but you still love me," Oliver grinned as it was true, she did love him and he hoped one day she would love him as more than a friend but until that time happened. He was completely fine with them just being friends, he did however have obviously no clue what his touch was beginning to do to Freya. If he did know, he would touch her as often as he could without coming across as being creepy.

    Once the pasta was being cooked he knew he wouldn't have to wait much longer before he could eat, so turning around he opened the pantry door and went to reaches for two bowls. But a pair of familiar arms wrapped around his waist from behind, before a head rested between his shoulder blades. His hands instantly rested over Freya's, his fingers lightly rubbing her incredibly soft skin.

    "You'll always have me, Frey. No matter what happens, I'll be right here beside you." Oliver whispered to her as he wanted to remind her of that, nothing was ever going to tear him away from her. Not even controlling boyfriends.
    Charlotte leaned against Adam's chest as she hugged him tightly, although she was careful not to get any flour on him from her hands. She listened to everything that he said to her and he was right. She had thought about taking a break from Nathan, but she was scared to tell him that and she was even more afraid of not finding anyone after him that would love her.

    "What if I do take a break but I can't find someone to love me? I don't want to be alone," She admitted as she rested her head against his firm chest, she knew Adam would always be there for her and she'd always be there for him.

    But he'll fine a nice girl soon and then Charlotte would be on her own again, she felt that way the last time Adam had a girlfriend. She felt like he forgot all about her because someone else made him happy, happier then she could because they were just friends.

    Adam was astounded at what the blonde was saying, pulling back slightly he looked into her eyes and shook his head, "Charlotte you will never be alone, there are so many other guys out there that would be lucky to have you. Believe me." and it was true there were so many, better guys out there that Charlotte deserved, if he couldn't have her then he was sure there were other decent guys out there.

    As he looked down at the blonde he looked over her face, she looked worried, upset and scared. Without thinking he had pressed his lips against hers, he didn't know what had come over him but it felt like the right thing to do. He was waiting for her to slap him across the face and yell at him.
    Freya sighed against the males back, "I know you will, and I will always be here for you!" she admitted as she held the male not wanting to let go, feeling comfortable with her arms around him while his finger rubbed her wrist in a calming motion. Smiling she let go of the male and walked back over to the sauce that was simmering away. Taking the red wine she pressed the bottle to her lips and took a swig.

    "Ugh, this tastes like shit, I knew there was a reason I never drank red wine," she spluttered her face crinkling in disgust at the bitter taste that spread across her tongue. She could hear the curly haired male laughing behind her, "Oh shush you."
    Nathan had just pulled up at the bar, stepping out of his car he drew his jacket closer around him and entered. The bar was filled with loud music and several people and it was only 2 in the afternoon. His dark eyes scanned the bar until he found him. The male with blonde hair and a broad stature.

    "Tristan," he called out walking over to the male and clapping a hand on his shoulder, "Long time no see mate, how have you been? How's the missus?"

    Tristan was sitting at a table, his fingers wrapped around a glass of rich whiskey. His attention was captured when his friend joined him, “Good seeing you again, Nathan. Ah she’s alright, still has that weasel hanging off of her.” He rolled his blue eyes at the mere thought of Freya’s best friend, the friend he has been trying to separate from his girl since they had their first date. He hadn’t expected it to be this difficult though, but he wasn’t going to continue to allow Freya to spend much more time with him.

    “How’s your girl doing?” He asked as he raised his hand, signalling to the bartender to bring them both another whiskey after he finished his first one off. They visited this bar often together, so the bartender knew what drinks they always ordered.
    Oliver smiled at Freya’s words although he wasn’t sure how much longer she’d be able to keep them, Tristan’s hold on her was becoming stricter and only he seemed to notice that. “Excuse me, now you just wasted perfectly good wine!” He took the bottle of red wine from her hand and cradled the bottle in his arms, “It’s alright. She’s being a bitch, I love you.” He spoke to the wine knowing it would make Freya laughed, Oliver loved all types of wine.

    He’d even drink the cheap wine if he was desperate and sometimes when pay day was too far away, he had to settle for the cheap stuff. Putting the wine into his fridge he checked on the paste, giving the pasta a good stir before he pulled a piece out and ate it. “Pasta is ready,” He turned the hot plate off before carrying the heavy pot over to the sink, he tipped the water out and drained off the pasta.

    “Is the sauce ready yet?” He asked looking over at Freya, waiting until she nodded her head. Then he poured the pasta into the sauce, letting Freya mix it all together while he moved the bowls closer to her as he was starving.
    Adam had never lied to her so when he told her that she’d never be alone, Charlotte believed him even if she couldn’t see it for herself. She looked up at him and before she knew what was happening, his warm lips covered her own and her heart froze in her chest. Her lips tingled and her body became so hot, butterflies tickled her stomach and her hands sweated. Nathan never made her feel this way when he kissed her, she was confused but at the same time all of this felt right, if that was even possible.

    Her eyes closed as she kissed Adam back, now her heart was beating like crazy and she was certain he could hear the thumps of her heart. Nathan never once crossed her mind as she kissed her best friend, it was only once they had broken apart for air. “I can’t… I want to but I shouldn’t…” She wasn’t even making any sense, he had left her speechless and her mind was fuzzy.

    Charlotte didn’t even know he felt like this, looking into his eyes something inside her changed. She had been devastated when she started to wonder if Nathan was cheating on her, now she was kissing another man but it had felt amazing and she only wanted more. So she closed the gap between them, she kissed Adam tenderly as she balanced on her toes and she never wanted this moment to end.

    Adam watched the blonde as she stuttered about not doing this and he understood, he had no idea what had come over him. He had been wanting to kiss the blonde for a long time but he couldn't believe he had chosen now to do it. When she still had a boyfriend, he was the worst for timing and he knew it.

    "Of course." he nodded his head taking a step back. However he was surprised when she pressed her lips to his again this time it was a tender kiss as she stepped toward him closing the gap between them. He wrapped his arms around her waist as he continued to kiss her. It felt perfect, this was how he wanted it.

    He wanted Charlotte in his arms and he wanted to kiss her whenever he wanted. He smiled into the kiss when he realised she was standing on her toes. She was adorable in every way possible.
    Freya grabbed two bowls out of the top cupboard and loaded them with pasta before hurrying over to the fridge and pulling out a packet of parmesan cheese before throwing a heap on each of the dishes. Handing the male his dish she smiled and the two grabbed a fork each out of the cutlery draw before heading back to the lounge room to eat their midday feast.

    Freya never got to have midday meals with Tristan as he was always too busy either at work or doing work related things at home. So she normally settled for eating by herself with a bottle of something alcoholic and a movie. However now she was with Oliver she didn't have to suffer loneliness. She had company, a good feast and maybe a movie.

    "So... How is?" she asked about the food just as the male put a heap in her mouth, she knew what she was doing. It was hilarious to see him try and swallow it quickly but due to it's heat he was struggling.
    "Oh man, that sucks." Nathan sighed as he clapped the male on the shoulder. "I'm in the same boat. Charlotte is visiting Adam... the twat... today I tried to make her stay home but she was determined to have lunch with the guy."

    Nathan was annoyed that his girl had decided to hang out with Adam instead of spending the day with him, but his annoyance slowly faded when he saw a raven haired barmaid giving him a rather seductive look. He shot a smile in her direction causing her to giggle and continue wiping down the tables which was where the dark haired male got a good look at her rear end. It was a nice view there was no denying it.

    "So what brings you to the pub at this time of day?"

    Tristan shrugged his shoulders lightly, “Women hey.” He shook his head lightly as he really didn’t know what Freya saw in her friend, why would she not want to spend time with him was beyond him. He treated her like a princess, he gave her everything that she wanted and showered her with gifts. What more did she want?

    “Just wanted to get away for a while,” He answered as he glanced over to his friend, “What brings you here? Other than checking out her ass,” He grinned as he had caught where Nathan’s eyes were focused, the raven haired barmaid was gorgeous especially with her tight black jeans that she was wearing because the fabric clung to her curves.

    Really the only time when Tristan didn’t check out other women was when Freya was there with him, he knew she would get upset and then he’d have to apologize and make it up to her. Which wasn’t all that hard, she always came crawling back to him.
    Oliver was sitting on the couch with his legs tucked up under him, he frowned when Freya decided to ask him how the food was right after he had taken a large mouthful. He tried to chew the food quickly so he could answer her, but the food was too hot for him to swallow quickly. So he did the only thing he could at that moment, he moved one of his legs from under him and gave Freya’s thigh a nudge with his foot.

    “It’s not that nice, you won’t like it.” He grinned after he finally swallowed his mouthful of food, he reached over and tried to take her bowl out of her hands. “Ouch,” He pouted when the beauty smacked the back of his hand with her fork, he quickly pulled his hand back and stuffed more of the pasta into his mouth.

    “Go put a movie on,” Oliver loved times like this, times when he and Freya didn’t have to do anything. They could stay inside and watch a movie, they could eat and just enjoy each other’s company. Watching as the red head moved over to pick out a movie that they could watch, she of course took her bowl of pasta goodness with her.
    Charlotte wrapped her arms around Adam’s neck as her body pressed against his, she couldn’t think of anything other than the feelings that were filling her body. Her mind was fuzzy and her stomach was filled with butterflies, this was nothing compared to how she felt when she kissed Nathan. She had never felt like this with Nathan, she felt Adam’s lips turn up into a smile and this felt right to her.

    After a few seconds she broke the kiss, but gently rested her forehead against his. Her breathing was heavy and it caused a pink blush to tint her cheeks, her heart was still racing and she hoped Adam wouldn’t be able to hear her heart because that would have been embarrassing.

    “You never told me that you felt this way,” She whispered as she opened her eyes and looked into his, she never wanted to leave his arms. She felt safe and wanted with his arms wrapped around her, Nathan never made her feel that way. What Adam was making her feel was what she had been searching for since she could remember, she always wanted true love and to be with that one special person. It was something she wanted and Nathan always teased her about it, he even called her stupid once for wanting true love.

    "I never had the balls to tell you Charlotte. I was scared, scared that if I did it would ruin our friendship, makes things awkward and uncomfortable," he paused inhaling deeply. "But it seems I was wrong." his arms stayed around her and her forehead was still pressed to his. It felt comfortable and he wanted to stay like this forever. However Adam knew that wasn't the case, there was still Nathan to think about.

    As much as Adam didn't care for Nathan he didn't want to go behind his back so he had to stop nit here at least until things had been sorted. He knew it would have to come from Charlotte, her decision that is, he couldn't tell him. But he would be there for the blonde and if it went sour he would get her out of there as soon as he could.

    However Adam knew Nathan and he knew what he was like. He knew that even though he was with the most beautiful girl that wouldn't stop his eyes from staring or his hands from wandering.

    "Charlotte..." he began his voice soft, "If we want this to go further I think Nathan... I think we need to tell Nathan." he stammered over his words looking into the blondes eyes.
    Freya walked over to the TV making sure to take her bowl of pasta with her, there was no way she was letting Oliver get any of it. She began to scan through his movies. Pulling out the Mask of Zorro and putting it in the player.

    "You've got the clicker," she stated as she walked back to the lounge chair and waited for the male to get everything started.She continued to eat her pasta, but not before stretching her legs across her friends knees, she laughed when he put his bowl on her calves. Hitting play the movie started and Freya allowed herself to get lost in the movie and not think about Tristan.
    Nathan chuckled but his eyes never left the barmaid as he answered his friend, "Nothing to do at home so I thought I would come down here watch the game and have a few drinks. I am pretty sure Charlotte won't be home till late." his dark eyes followed the woman as she weaved around the tables. He had no shame and wasn't subtle at all. He didn't have to be Charlotte wasn't at the bar with her. He was free to stare at whatever he wanted. "You gotta admit she has one hell of an ass on her!" he stated finally turning to look at his friend who sat next to him.

    Tristan chuckled softly as his light eyes moved over to the female bartender, she had bent over slightly to wipe down a table. “She sure does, her ass is way better than Freya’s.” He admitted without any shame, his girlfriend wasn’t there so why couldn’t he look? She’d never find out, she was too busy with the boy tonight. “I think she likes you, man.” He smirked when the woman glanced over her shoulder, her brown eyes landing on his friend and it was obvious she loved the attention she was receiving from them both.
    Oliver pressed play on the movie and leant further back into the couch so he could be comfortable, his bowl of pasta didn’t last long so he set the empty bowl onto Freya’s calves and continued to enjoy the movie. His arms draped over her legs as silence fell apart them, this is how they always were when they were watching a show or a movie. Neither of them dared to speak until the credits rolled onto the screen, his fingers would lightly grip Freya’s legs whenever an exciting part of the movie played on the tv screen.

    Once the movie finished, Oliver looked over to his best friend. “Such a classic movie, do you have time for another one? I have ice cream waiting for us, a tub each.” He grinned as he didn’t want Freya to leave just yet, he wanted to spend as much time with her as he possibly could. Before she went back to the jerk that treated her like she was a trophy, it made him feel sick that he hadn’t noticed how Tristan truly was until it was too late and Freya already thought she loved the dickhead.
    Charlotte signed softly as she did know she’d have to break it off with Nathan, she’d never start anything with Adam if she was already taken. She wasn’t that type of person, “And I’ll tell him soon. The next time I see him, I’ll tell him.” She wasn’t sure what she was going to say, but she’d need to stay strong if she was going to actually break up with him. He had a way of guilt tripping her into doing whatever he wanted, she was expecting him to try it with her again so she’d stay with him.

    “I should finish off the cookies,” She smiled lightly brushing the tip of her nose with Adam’s, before she stepped away from his embrace which was harder than she first thought. But she turned and continued mixing the dry and wet ingredients together until dough was formed, she added in a lot of chocolate chips before flattening out balls of dough onto a baking tray. She set the trays in the oven and put the timer on, “Adam… I’m nervous, what if Nathan doesn’t let me go?” She asked as she started washing up.

    "Charlotte he can't keep you against your will, sure he can try but all you have to do is send me a text or call me and I will be over there right away. If anything bad happens I will call the cops and get him locked up before he can say sorry" Adam stated and it was the truth. Nathan meant nothing to him and he was willing to do whatever it takes to make sure he stayed away from her. As the dark haired male looked at the female he could see how scared she really was.

    Nathan pulled her away from the dishes and turned her so he was looking at her. "Hey the guy is an arsehole, anyone with a brain can see that, and I promise I am not the only one who would be there at the drop of a coin. I am sure your parents would do the same. If it makes it easier I can come with you. I will sit in the car while you go in there and if anything goes wrong call for me.." he wrapped his arms around her protectively before pressing a kiss to the top of her head.

    Adam refused to let Nathan bully her into staying with him. If he laid a finger on her he would snap all of them off before knocking his lights out. He held the blonde close before pulling her away from the sink and back into the lounge room where he pressed his lips to her in a fiery kiss.
    Freya nodded her head without even really thinking. Of course she had time for another movie. If she knew Tristan as well as she thought she did she knew he would be at a bar drinking away his anger and annoyance. She wasn't scared of him she had taken him on before and she would do it again. Only this time she was beginning to think that maybe the relationship the two had wasn't what it once was.

    Tristan used to be kind and loving and understanding when she went to hang out with Oliver, however recently he had become more possessive, more aggressive and constantly questioned her whenever she went out or was late home from work. She shook her head and swallowed her thoughts. She would keep them to herself until she could figure out what to do.

    "Of course. Ollie you know me so well. What kind of ice-cream have you got?" she asked a wide grin spreading across her face a she thought about all the ice creams that could be found in the shops. The options were endless... but her favourite had to be rocky road.
    "You think?" Nathan asked turning to look at his friend before his attention was back on the woman. Grabbing his beer he got to his feet and began to walk over to her. She was still bent over the table and an image of him taking her from behind flashed inside his mind. The urge to reach out and slap her arse was strong but he fought it and instead greeted her.

    "Hey gorgeous," his words were smooth and his voice was low. The female turned to look at him a giggle leaving her lips as she straightened up. "I'm Nathan. What's your name?"

    The raven haired bartender had been waiting for this handsome man to approach her and he finally had, “Hi Nathan. I’m Jolie,” Her voice matched her perfectly, seductive and velvety. Her eyes moved down Nathan’s body and she wasn’t hiding that she was checking him out, “I noticed you were watching me.” She flirted with him without any shame, she had even partly forgotten that she was still meant to be working.

    Not that she really cared, there weren’t all that many customers in the bar so she felt like she deserved a little break. Even though her shift was ending in ten minutes time.
    Oliver smiled as he got to his feet, the empty bowls in his hands as he rushed off into his kitchen. “I don’t have strawberry,” He told her but he was lying, he did have strawberry but that was his favourite ice cream flavour so he’d be keeping that one for himself. “I have salted caramel, triple chocolate, choc mint, or um… rocky road.” He grinned as he already knew which flavor Freya would want, he also liked rocky road but really only brought it for Freya.

    Leaving the bowls in the sink, he grabbed two spoons and the two tubs of ice cream from his freezer. “What movie should we watch?” He asked as he carried the ice cream tubs back over to the couch, the coldness of the tubs were making numb patches on his arms where he was carrying them.
    Charlotte knew that Adam was right, Nathan couldn’t continue to control her anymore. He couldn’t force her to stay with him, he couldn’t bully her either like he has been doing the last few months. Charlotte needed to be strong when she talked to him, for her own sake. “I know that,” She whispered as she leaned into Adam’s body, she had always felt so protected and wanted when his arms would hold her.

    “Could you wait outside when I talk to him?” She asked as she’d feel better knowing he was close by, in case Nathan did try anything with her. He’d never been physical with her, but she knew he had a very short temper that tended to blow without any warning. Feeling Adam take her back into the living room, she couldn’t help but moan softly into his kiss. She’d never felt that way when she was kissed but she loved it, her arms wrapped around Adam’s neck before she pulled back. “I thought you didn’t want to start anything until Nathan’s gone,” She teased him with a grin on her face.
