22, ebony to jake, you delicious slut ;p
‘I’ve seen the way you look at me, when you think I don’t notice.’ Ebony didn’t look up from the table, where her cup of tea rested. She was stirring it nonchalantly as she spoke.
She saw Jake freeze out of the corner of her eye. ‘What?’
‘You stare at me. I’ve seen you do it.’ She smiled to herself as his eyebrow twitched slightly, the only mark of expression on his face.
Ebony stopped stirring her tea and hopped down from her chair smoothly, coming to stand in front of Jake, who had paused in his making of a cup of coffee to, you guessed it: stare at her.
‘Why is it then, that you do it?’ She asked, looking up at him. ‘Look at me like I’m going to disappear in the next three seconds?’
Jake shrugged. ‘Maybe you are. Our last collaboration ended three days ago.’
Ebony laughed. ‘And yet, I’m still here, amn’t I?’
He shrugged again. ‘For now, yes.’
Ebony got a glint in her eye, one that meant trouble and Jake knew it. He didn’t even have the chance to take a half-step back from her before she slung her arms up around his neck and pulled him down into a kiss.
When she pulled away with a self-satisfied smirk she could almost swear she saw the faintest bit of red on his cheeks. ‘Is that enough insurance that I’ll stick around for a bit?’ She asked.
Jake shook his head and tapped his lips with his finger. ‘You’ll have to do better than that.’
