Chapter 45: Housemates (2)

Imani let out a breath she didn't know she had been holding when she shut the door of her room behind her and relaxed her grip on the bottle of water she took from the kitchen. She pressed the cool bottle to her face which currently felt hot because of a particular shirtless person she had seen less than a minute ago.

She slowly walked over to the bed and sat on it, shutting her eyes for a moment, as she kept the bottle pressed against her face. She inhaled slowly when an image of a shirtless Lucas drinking water flashed through her mind and shook her head as she pulled the bottle away from her face, unscrewing the cap.

"You've seen a lot of shirtless guys, Imani. Stop it," she muttered before drinking from the bottle but she had only ever seen pictures of shirtless guys.
