━━━ chapter 015 ( real life + social media )

after amara hears three distinct knocks come from the front door, she swings it open to reveal a grinning vinnie on the other side. "hi, mars."

she tilts her head, biting the inside of her lip to refrain from grinning as well. "hi, vinnie."

"you look nice," he's quick to tell her, making her face redden instantly. something about the way he speaks his mind without hesitation just does things to her. his grin grows smug from the crimson coating her cheeks and he tilts his head just slightly. "you gonna let me kiss you tonight?"

"mm," she hums for a second to consider her answer before pushing her lips together, giving him a shake of her head. "not yet."

"alright then." he lets out a breath, giving her a look that suggests he intends on changing that. still though, he doesn't voice the thought.

the taco bell bag in his hand catches her attention, so she takes a step back so that he can come inside. a grin overtakes her face before she can resist it. "i didn't even tell you my order," she says as he closes the door behind him.

"pfft," vinnie scoffs mockingly as he looks down at the girl, "you seriously thought i wouldn't remember?"

amara stares at him for a few seconds, only blinking before she finally breaks and an uncontrollable smile spreads across her face. he always manages to get her cheesing like a fool. she just can't help it when she takes a step forward to pull his lips down to hers by grabbing the back of his neck. she registers a growing smirk tugging at his lips before she kisses him, but what can she even say? she melts when it comes to him and he knows it.

he's deepening the kiss as soon as the two make contact, and immediately, his hands wander to rest on the low of her backside. she moves from the back of his neck to the start of his hair when he suddenly pulls back from her, taking a breath as his previous smirk takes up his features. before he even speaks, she knows it's gonna be a teasing remark, so when he says, "not yet, hm?" she only presses her lips together.

after swatting his arm and defensively swiping the taco bell bag from him, she turns her back to the sound of his laughter. she begins walking to the kitchen and hears him behind her as she calls, "leave me alone!"

vinnie rolls his eyes from his place behind her and catches up with her once they're in the kitchen. she steps towards the counter to set the bag down and vinnie wraps his arms around her torso from behind. "no thanks."

"geez," she blows a breath from her lips, warmth spreading within her from the feeling of being in his hold. "can't keep your hands off me for one second?" she asks teasingly, her smile clear from the sound of her voice.

"nope," he simply responds from behind, lowering his head so that his mouth has easy access to her neck. amara's breath hitches at the feeling of his hot breath on her neck and holds onto the edge of the counter in front of her just for her own sake.

"vinnie," she nearly giggles when he begins nearly kissing her skin, the feeling nearly making her knees give out. she subconsciously leans against him, melting into his small kisses as she murmurs, "quit it."

"i can't help it," is his line of defense. amara narrows her eyes and breaks from the spell he put her under to separate from him enough and spin around to face him. he shrugs when her face is across from his, resting his hands along the edge of the same countertop hers previously laid on. "i missed you."

his voice is low enough for amara to internally freak over, so she sighs and tilts her head at him. "i missed you too," she softly tells him, his eyes shining in the light. "i slept in your hoodie last night," she even reveals sheepishly.

a grin slowly spreads across his face, and the raise of his eyebrows is a teasing one when he asks, "did you ever do that when we broke up?"

"vinnieee," she groans at the question, in disbelief that he'd ask that. he only laughs at her reaction and she purses her lips, internally debating her response before giving in and truthfully answering, "it made me too sad when they stopped smelling like you."

vinnie's lips first twist downwards at her response. "oh baby," he says, now gently taking ahold of her hips as she grows more bashful. "i'll get you some more."

"that would be much appreciated," she responds before eventually adding, "or just—you know—don't break up with me." she's only joking, but she gives him a look with her words to make him sweat.

vinnie clicks his tongue, shaking his head as he pulls her closer to him with his hands on her hips. "that's not happening," he assures her.

"mhm," amara only hums a response, becoming too transfixed by his lips to primarily focus on their conversation. vinnie grins smugly at her, one of the hands he had residing on her hip snaking around her waist and the other traveling lower before he pulls her in for a kiss.

amara flourishes underneath his touch, enchanted by the feeling his kiss grants her as her hands tug on the ends of his jacket. her back continuously grows further pushed against the counter behind her, but any pain is prevented from vinnie's roaming hands on her. she silently wonders how a man could be so perfect.

when the two of them have to break apart for air, amara almost feels stupid for the smile that immediately takes over her lips until vinnie whispers, "i don't know how i ever could've given this up."

amara falters momentarily at his words however, them unexpectedly causing a spike in her mood. vinnie quickly catches the falling of her expression and furrows his eyebrows. she huffs unsurely. "you did though."

vinnie frowns, knowing that is a topic they haven't touched as much as they probably should have by now. he hopes his eyes show the regret he's been feeling over the past year of her absence in his life, and they seem to, because her eyes soften at his expression. "that's a mistake i won't repeat," he tells her gently, trying to reassure her to the best of his abilities.

amara's eyes travel across the features of his face, analyzing the emotions visibly displayed and sighing heavily. "mkay," she shrugs, lowering her hands overtop of where his rest over her body. "let's go see my friends now, yeah?"

vinnie nods, hastily dropping his hands from her and taking a step back so that she is free to move out of the kitchen. "lead the way, mars."
