The past few days had been interesting for Lacie, to say the least. She and Brendon basically went from acting pretty normal toward each other during the day, to making out as soon as they were in her bedroom at night, and she didn't really feel weird about it because she honestly didn't want this to be made a big deal of. She could already hear her mom going on about her daughter and her best friend's son having a thing for each other, followed by a sex talk, and she was not up for that. Besides, he'd be headed back to England before too long, so it wasn't like any of this would be getting serious. After all, who knew when was the next time she would even see him? Not that she was interested in the idea of a long distance relationship as a starting point. If he lived closer, maybe she'd consider making this a more permanent thing, but things just weren't that way. Today, they were actually getting a bit more time alone though. Her moms were taking Aunt Jessica and Uncle Porter along on a drive to show them off some of the sights of the island that they'd wanted to see, and Marissa and Kiana had decided to go along. Eric and Ivy had slipped out not long after they'd gone, saying they'd probably be at the beach for a few hours, and something about their demeanor toward each other made her think they were planning on chancing being arrested for public indecency. That left her and Brendon at the condo. Which they currently weren't making that good of use of, sitting on the couch and searching Netflix for something to watch - and since he was in control of the remote, he seemed intent on trying to find every worst possible option out there.

Brendon's trip to Hawaii thus far had been really great. Not just because he had gotten to spend a lot of time seeing Lacie in a bikini - which he had - and not just because he'd gotten to spend a lot of time making out with Lacie - which he also had - but because he was actually just having a lot of fun out and about with her and her friends. He'd gotten to meet a few of them at this point and they were all fun to be around. Today though, they didn't really have any plans although everyone else did. His parents and Lacie's parents, as well as their respective sisters, were out seeing some sights and Eric and Ivy were out trying to join the sex on the beach club. So, that left him and Lacie by themselves in the condo to do what they wanted. At the current moment, he was looking through Netflix options with her in the living room. "Oh, what about this one?" he asked, landing on a movie that looked terrible but also like it'd be hilarious. "Croctopous! Lacie, it's a crocodile and an octopus mated together into a giant monster! It'll be hilarious. I just know it, it'll be so bad that it's good."

Lacie didn't really have any friends who were similar to Brendon, in personality and just in general. They weren't necessarily the most serious of people, but they were for sure more serious than the other guy generally tended to be. At first, she had admittedly worried if prolonged exposure to his antics would start annoying her, because she wasn't used to it, but she found that she actually enjoyed his presence, even if she had had to take him down a notch a couple of times. As it was, she'd just spent the better part of ten minutes turning down most of the suggestions he'd made as to what they should watch, because she felt sure they must all be coming off of some kind of 'worst movies on Netflix' list. She couldn't help but shake her head a bit and bring her hand to her face as he landed on his next pick, giving him a bit of a look. "Are you just gonna keep searching until I give in to something stupid?" she asked him, her tone mostly serious though there was a bit of a pull at the corners of her mouth. For some obscure reason, his silly ways were actually pretty winning.

Brendon did genuinely want to watch every movie that he was suggesting because he had always subscribed to the idea that things could be so bad they were good. His father, being someone else who had studied film, was always mildly disgusted whenever he caught him watching badly made movies but his dad was no fun anyway and it didn't surprise anyone to find that he could be a film snob. He looked over at Lacie and gave a grin as she asked if he was going to keep going until she gave into something stupid, able to see the slight pull at the corners of her mouth. "I was planning on it," he admitted without shame. He could wear most people down with enough time, though it seemed that Lacie might be a bit more of a challenge. Obviously if she really was unhappy, he would change his tactics, but it didn't seem to be a real problem. "Though if you had other ideas you wanted to throw out for what we could do, I would be willing to take them into consideration." They had been making good use of alone time usually, but there was no saying that was what she was interested in.

Lacie couldn't help but roll her eyes a bit as Brendon admitted to the fact that he was planning on doing this until she gave in, though she still couldn't quite hide the amusement at his tactics. Raising an eyebrow slightly though as he then mentioned that if she had other ideas to throw out there as to what they could do, he'd be open to those, tilting her head a bit as she considered him for a moment, her fingers lightly tapping against her thigh as she looked him over briefly. "Nope, I'm good," she said after a few seconds of silence, settling back into the couch, unable to hold off a small smirk. So, she would say thus far this week they'd been pretty even at coming on to the other - sometimes he'd been the one to make the first move, sometimes it'd been her. She hadn't exactly kept count so it wasn't like she knew for sure who'd taken the lead more often, but she didn't exactly care either. Right now though, she wasn't planning on giving in to him, at least not just yet. "Croctopus it is," she told him, shifting slightly so that she could lean back against the armrest, moving her legs into his lap. "Though if I'm gonna watch that disaster, I'm gonna be comfortable," she went on, pulling out her hair tie and running her fingers through her braid to undo it.

Brendon looked back at Lacie innocently as she went ahead and tapped her thigh, wondering what would happen when she was done considering. He hadn't quite puzzled Lacie out all the way, which probably made sense since they hadn't been face to face all that often nor talked all the time online. Therefore, he couldn't be entirely surprised when she decided that she was good, though he was a tad disappointed. "Alright," he said, pressing the play button and letting it come onto screen. When her legs ended up in his lap, he threw her a questioning glance only to have it answered by her saying that she was going to be comfortable through this disaster. He got a little distracted at the way she ran her fingers through her hair, because he knew how soft her hair felt in his own fingers. Before he could draw much attention to himself though, he turned to face the movie as it started. Though after a couple of minutes he did begin to run his hands along her legs idly, his fingers dragging along her toned muscles while throwing a quick glance her.

It was a bit odd how the slightest bit of closeness with Brendon both felt completely natural at this point, even in a completely platonic manner such as right now, but also made Lacie want to just keep getting closer. Which had certainly made the process of sharing a bed all the more tricky, but even though she could have just decided to make him sleep on the inflattable mattress her moms had supplied, she just hadn't felt like it was necessary. For one thing, she felt like she had a pretty good grip on herself and a decent amount of self control. And for another... she'd actually really enjoyed having him that close, tricky or not. Right now, however, was not the time to be thinking on that, and as such she tried her best to keep her attention on the ridiculous movie the other guy had decided they should watch. A slight shiver coursing through her body as his hands and fingers started dragging along her legs, looking over at Brendon just in time to see him throw a quick glance at her, making her wonder idly if he was doing this purposely to make her lose her cool. "If you're not gonna watch the movie, I'm picking something else," she told him, an edge of playfulness and smugness in her voice, since clearly he was also being distracted by her closeness.

Brendon did check out Lacie probably more than was good to be subtle since he'd arrived. If anyone noticed, they didn't say anything, but he figured that most of the time everyone was too busy to see most of the time. Obviously, he was pretty sure Eric and Ivy had figured it out. His dad might have suspected something, and Marissa probably pieced things together, but clearly no one had bothered to inform any of the moms and he hoped that they kept it that way because he was very much enjoying being able to be alone with Lacie. When she caught him looking over at her though and threated to pick something else he held up a hand in defeat. "Okay, okay, I'll watch the movie," he replied, though he kept his other hand on her leg. "Just got momentarily distracted by you looking all.." He gave a broad gesture with his hand toward her current outfit, as if that explained everything. Which, to most people who were interested in the fairer sex, it probably would have because Lacie was very attractive and even more so when her hair was down.

It wasn't like Lacie could pretend to be offended that Brendon's attention had been on her so often over the course of his family's visit, because it would be lying to say she didn't like him checking her out. Obviously, that wasn't something that could be said from any guy, but she knew Brendon, and she liked him. He was a nice guy, he hadn't pushed any of her boundaries, and he also knew that she returned the attraction, so it wasn't like he thought it might be unwanted. Of course, she had no plans of admitting to him that she actually liked catching him looking at her, or that maybe, just maybe, she sometimes did things on purpose to keep get him to look. Rolling her eyes playfully as he said he'd just been momentarily distracted by her, trailing off as he gestured to her overall appearance, shaking her head a bit. "Looking all like a girl?" she teased him a bit as she played lightly with a strand of hair. "Lord knows what would happen to your brain if I was naked," she added in a taunting manner, turning her attention back to the movie on the screen, although none of her actual focus was on it.

Brendon definitely did have a type when it came to appearance and the girls that he dated. Since Lacie was pretty much the embodiment of that type, his interest in simply looking at her couldn't really be downplayed. He gave her a look as she finished his sentence by saying that she was looking like a girl because that obviously wasn't it. Though when she added the next part about being naked he did a once over of her body. Honestly, he had no complaint with the way she was dressed now but the thought of her being naked was one he'd had a few times since seeing her in a bikini and even more since they'd started to make out during this trip. He wasn't against today being the day that he actually got to see it. Especially given the fact that they were alone, so it was a real possibility if she was so inclined. "Well, I mean if you really want to find out, I'm open to the experiment," he answered, his voice serious if a bit too eager. Not that he could help that though, with what she'd just said. "You know, for science and all."

So, Lacie wasn't exactly an innocent person - just because she hadn't had sex yet, didn't mean she didn't know a few things about turning guys on or taunting them a bit. And she may not know Brendon perfectly well, but from what she did know of him, she was well aware that her comment wouldn't just go above his head. Considering the current nature of their relationship, she felt pretty confident that just throwing in passing the mention of herself being naked would be more than enough to get the image into his head. Which, if she was completely honest, she wasn't sure how she would then want to proceed, but really, anything would be better right now than sitting around in the living room, in an empty condo, watching a stupid movie on Netflix. At the same time, she wasn't planning on just giving him a free pass either, so once she heard him say that if she wanted to find out what would happen to his brain if she were naked, he was open to the experiment - not missing the blatant eagerness in his voice - she couldn't help but give a smile that veered on a smirk and raise an eyebrow. "I don't get naked for scientific experiments," she told him.

Brendon lived by the motto that it never hurt to try anything. It had gotten him into some trouble every now and again, but for the main part, even when it did not turn out to be the most helpful of things, it didn't turn out poorly either. In this case, from Lacie's reaction it was clear that his attempt to encourage her to get naked hadn't quite hit the mark but then by the way that she smirked and raised an eyebrow, he figured that he wasn't striking out too much either. "Well, I suppose that's fair enough," he replied, letting his fingers start tracing patterns along her skin again. "Doing science naked is risky business." He turned back to the screen, as if he was going to drop the whole matter. In reality, he was giving a bit of a break both so that he might think a little more about another way to approach it and maybe to keep Lacie a bit off guard. For a couple of minutes, the movie played on and he watched in silence. Then, he looked back over at the brunette. "I could get naked, too, though. If it would ease your mind," he suggested, tilting his head to the side. "You know, that way you're not the lone naked person. Solidarity and all."

Lacie didn't specifically view what she was doing right now as playing hard to get. It wasn't like she and Brendon didn't already have an established dynamic, or like she could pretend that she didn't enjoy making out with him - he had a way of finding spots on her neck that made her toes curl and her breath hitch like there was no tomorrow, which was kinda ridiculous. That being said, it didn't mean she was just willing to strip down for him with no effort whatsoever. If he wanted to see her naked, he'd have to work for it a bit. That thought in itself was a little strange to her, because she honestly hadn't even thought she'd be willing to be fully naked in front of him until almost this very moment, but even as she thought it over a couple more times, she couldn't bring herself to be against it. Giving a bit of a snort as he conceded that doing science naked was risky business, shaking her head a bit as he turned back toward the tv, admittedly a bit curious about what was going on in his mind right now. Finding herself glancing at him a couple of times over the next few minutes, having to keep herself from laughing as she heard what he said next. "Is that really a fair trade, though? I vividly remember you describing yourself as average. Are you saying I'm average?" she spoke in a teasing fashion, though she allowed her fingers to lightly drag along the edge of her sports bra.

Brendon thought he saw Lacie almost laugh at what he said, which was good enough for him. He'd learned that she wasn't as free with laughing at things as he was, or as Cora was, but that didn't bother him in the slightest. In fact, it was kind of interesting, to see when he did actually get her to laugh and when she held back. As she teased him back by asking if he was proposing a fair trade considering he was average before asking if he thought she was average he shook his head. His eyes followed her fingers as they traced along her sports bra, wishing that his hands were doing just that. "That's not what I'm saying at all," he replied, picking up her legs a little and sliding over a position on the couch so that he had her thighs in his lap. His hands moved along her tan skin, though didn't go too far up either, not wanting to get told off. Besides, with the shorts she was wearing, there was plenty of skin available to him without having to push his luck. "You're stunning. An eleven on ten, for sure," he spoke earnestly, nodding to back up his point. "I've just got to work with what I've got though. I could do some pushups before getting naked, try to make it a slightly better picture."

Lacie didn't miss the way Brendon's eyes followed the path her fingers drew along the edge of her bra, but then, it wasn't like it hadn't been her intention to draw his attention to her cleavage in the first place. As it was, he'd spent a pretty decent amount of time getting acquainted with her chest over the past few days, and it hadn't really taken him a lot of time to figure out how she enjoyed being touched, but she hadn't allowed him to take any article of clothing off of her thus far. Helping him along slightly as she felt him grab onto her legs to pull her a bit closer, finding herself having to use her arms to support herself now that she didn't have the armrest to rest against, resting her elbows on the couch and leaning back slightly as she looked up at him with a raised eyebrow. Unable to quite ignore the butterflies in her stomach as he called her stunning, because she could tell there was no play in his words right now, unable to hold off as she laughed a bit once he added that he could do some pushups before getting naked. "Does that really help?" she asked a bit playfully. "Like, how does that work? What's the logic to it?" she questioned teasingly.
