basis.”
    “Why?”
    “I have my reasons.”
    “Any you care to share?” I asked, wondering if I was pushing him too far.
    “It’s in the past,” he said, but he didn’t offer up any details and I opened my mouth to ask him what the problems had been, but I could tell it was a subject he didn’t want to discuss and so I kept my mouth shut.
    He took my hand, finishing the climb to the second floor and leading me to the spare room.
    “Here is where you’ll be staying,” he said begrudgingly, closing the door behind us.
    “You seem annoyed.”
    “I am,” he said, placing my bag on the double bed. “I had every intention of sleeping with you tonight and I mean sleeping in more ways than one.”
    “Just think how good it’ll be when we finally get back to New York.”
    “But that’s not for two days.” He sat on the edge of the bed and then pulled me onto his lap. “I can’t wait two days.”
    “Well, I’m sorry, Mr. Saben, but you’ll have to since your mom insisted we stay here.”
    “I had a great room picked out for us too.  I don’t even get the deposit back since I canceled so late.”
    “Is that what you’re worried about?  I think you can spare the money,” I laughed.
    “No.  That’s not what I’m worried about,” he said, wrapping his arms around my waist and pulling me along with him as he fell back onto the bed so I was on top of him, my hair hanging down in his face.  He pushed it back and stared up at me. “What I’m worried about is not having you beside me tonight.” His hand reached to the back of my head, pushing me towards him until his lips were on mine, kissing me deeply before suddenly stopping. “Now get off me before I can’t stop.” His playful smile made me laugh and I climbed off of him, holding out my hand and pulling him up.
    “You started that, so don’t blame me for your blue balls.”
    “Did you just say blue balls?” he said with a laugh and I grinned. “That is not something I ever want to hear leave your mouth again.” I laughed and he turned to the door. “I’m going to bed now before I can get myself into anymore trouble.  Bathroom’s down the hall, last door on the right.  See you in the morning.” He winked at me and then left.
    I stood for a moment, looking around the room.  There was nothing extraordinary about it.  A simple bed covered in a white duvet and a few oversized pillows.  I quickly changed into my pajamas.  I hadn’t thought we were staying at his parents’ house.  Had I known, I would’ve brought something other than my sweat pants and t-shirt.  There wasn’t anything I could do about it now and once I was dressed, I grabbed my toothbrush and made my way into the dark hallway.  I found the bathroom and after brushing my teeth, I turned back to the hallway, noticing a light coming from beneath a door.  I assumed it was Drew’s room and I went over to it, knocking lightly.
    “Come in.”
    I opened the door, just in time to see him slide on his undershirt.
    “So,” I said, walking in. “This is your old room.”
    “Indeed.  Welcome to my lair.”
    “Your lair?”
    “Oh yeah.  I used to sneak girls in here all the time.”
    “Liar,” I said, but when he looked over to me with a raised eyebrow and cocky grin, I had a feeling he was telling the truth.
    “Believe what you will, Natalie.”
    “And I actually believe you, Drew, even though I don’t like the thought of you as a womanizing teenager.”
    “I wouldn’t say I was a womanizer.”
    “I knew guys like you in high school,” I said, folding my arms and glaring playfully at him.
    “Guys like me?”
    “Too good looking for your own good.  The kind of guy who could get any girl to do anything he wants and then doesn’t ever call her again.”
    “You sound like you’re talking from experience.”
    “No, not personally, but I know your type.”
    “Well, you love me, so that type must be something you like.”
    I walked over to him, sliding my
