As I walked to her room I heard a beat, I recognized it as one of those Ariana Grande songs. As I walked closer I could hear a voice under the music singing with it.
"Tell me something I need to know, then take my breath and never let it go," I knew it from somewhere but couldn't exactly pinpoint where.
"If you just let me invade your space, I'll take the pleasure, take it with the pain." The fact that it was Perky who said those words made me all hot and bothered, I probably should've turned away but I couldn't.
"And if in the moment I bite my lip, baby in that moment you know this is something bigger than us and beyond bliss. Give me a reason to believe it!" I heard Perk shout and the music changed.
"Cause if you want to keep me, you gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta love me harder! And if you really need me you gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta love me harder! Baby, love me harder!" I won't lie and say that hearing Perk scream 'harder' didn't do anything to my insides… and outsides.
"Love me, love me, love me, harder, harder, harder," It was not good for my mental health to hear this, especially since my mind insisted on tuning out Ariana's voice and listening in on Perk's.
"I know your motives, and you know mine! The ones that love me I tend to leave behind. If you know about me and choose to stay, then take this pleasure, and take it with the pain!" Perk vocalized the last word and some of me turned to jelly while some of me turned into frozen jelly.
"And if in the moment you bite your lip, when I get you moaning you know it's real. Can you feel the pressure between your hips? I'll make it feel like the first time!" Most of me had melted into complete water while one piece of me only got tougher the more I listened.
"Even though it hurts!" Perky added before it was time to sing the next line, she obviously knew what they were talking about, which made my problem all the worse.
"Cause if you want to keep me, you gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta love me harder!"
"Imma love you harder," I found myself mumbling and my eyes widened.
"And if you really need me, you gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta love me harder! Baby, love me harder!" Perk kept pace with the song as I heard the sound of something snap.
"Love me, love me, love me, harder, harder, harder! Love me, love me, love me, harder, harder, harder!" She sang.
"So what do I do if I can't figure it out?" I mumbled along with the song.
"You gotta try try try again."
"So what do I do if I can't figure it out?" I mumbled again.
"I'm gonna leave leave leave, cause if you want to keep me, you gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta love me harder."
"Imma love you love you love you," I hummed.
"And if you really need me, you gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta love me harder." Her voice got quieter and I could only think the song was going to end.
"Cause if you want to keep me, you gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta love me harder, love me harder."
"And if you really need me, you gotta gotta gotta gotta gotta love me harder, love me harder."
"Imma do it, do it do it," I muttered with just as much urgency as the man in the song.
"Imma love ya harder," I whispered quietly.
"Love me, love me, love me, harder, harder, harder, boy you gotta love me love me baby. Just a little bit harder, harder baby." The music died away and I came back to my senses and quietly ran back to my room, we could chill later, right now I need to get my friend under control.
No doubt 'harder' was now my favorite word though.
After I was sure I'd be fine around Perk without some of me wanting to say hi, I made my way back to her room.
She was chilling on her bed with her door open and an outfit that seemed to make everything pop out… not excluding me.
"Oh hey," She said, looking up at me to see me standing in her doorway.
"Hey, mind if we just chill here?" I questioned, maybe I'd calm down if I chilled around her long enough without thinking about things I don't want to.
"Yea, I don't mind," She said and went back to her phone.
I went and sat in the chair at her desk, it could spin so I spun around in it for a bit while on my phone, glancing at Perky every once in a while.
Once I caught her biting a bit of her lip and giggling.
"What happened?" I asked.
"Remember my crush, Aiden?" She asked and I grunted. That definitely calmed me down.
"He started texting me a little bit before you came," Her eyes softened then went back to being bubbly and perky.
This is why I hate certain aspects of being a guy, if she couldn't see how strongly my body reacted to her then I would've been able to walk right into the room and probably prevented her from talking to Short Stack again.
"Imma go eat a snack in the field," I mumbled.
"I'll come with," I saw her type something then she crawled off the bed, her skirt riding up her thigh a little.
I'm uh… not so calm anymore.
"Cool," I said when actually I was thinking the opposite. There was no way I'd be able to last over an hour at this rate.
She's practically seducing me without even trying. And yes, I know what seducing means.
