Our lips locked together, and froze, as I unexpectedly kissed him.
Wondering if I had misjudged the situation, then realised also within my haste the sheet covering me dropped to the ground, I felt nervous and my cheeks flushed pink.
I didn’t need to worry, moments later his lips responded to mine, his tongue found its way into my mouth, hungrily exploring my mouth, my tongue found his and they massaged each other heatedly.
He pulled me to him so close; I could feel his heart palpitating through his chest matching mine. Stroking my hair, he let his hand flow down stroking the middle of my back, I let out a purr.
Reluctantly pulling away from each other breathlessly, I winced from the prominent pain that shot through my head.
‘’ you should rest’’ he said with much concern, ushering me to the bed.
I didn’t resist. I really did feel tired and my head was still throbbing. I was just afraid, scared that if I closed my eyes, this would all be a dream.
As I got on the bed, He picked up the duvet, and covered me, softly kissing my head as I let my head hit the pillow.
A memory soared through my mind, as I remembered the exotic substance trickling down my throat. I thought id imagined it, but if everything else happened, then what was this.
‘’ what did I drink…’’ I asked curiously while fighting the sleepiness of my eyes.
‘’Just rest, I’ll explain everything to you later, it was all make sense soon.’’ Though he said this calmly, there was a secretive look in his eyes, what was he keeping from me?
‘’Please forgive me’’ he whispers as my eyes started closing.
Forgive him for what I wondered, as my eyes shut, succumbing to the darkness of my mind, I drifted back to sleep.
Waking this time more peacefully, glancing around I saw I was still in his room, which gave me comfort and joy, knowing it wasn’t I dream.
Carefully I sat up, noticing with a surprise that the pain was gone.
I felt refreshed, in fact thinking about it I felt great, like my body had been pumped with endorphins, letting me become drunk on happiness.
As I moved out of the bed my eye caught sight of a small pile of clothes with a note folded neatly, weighted down by a small hand-picked pink rose. Smiling I brought the rose to my nose taking in its sweet scent, and read the note.
Good morning sleepyhead,
I collected some clean clothes for you.
There are toiletries in the bathroom.
I love you
J x
Pulling on the clean clothes I felt immediately more comfortable, and then headed for the bathroom.
Only having been to James’s house a handful of times, I ventured along the hallway to find the bathroom.
‘’here we are’’ I thought out loud, walking into the large bathroom.
‘’wow’’
It was spacious alright, a large bath taking place in the centre of the room accompanied by a luxury shower cubical in the corner.
I sought out my bag of toiletries that James had brought for me, emptying out the contents. He had brought just the basics, hair brush, tooth brush, moisturiser, shampoo, shower gel and mascara. Smiling as it dawned on me just how much he knew me, I rarely wore make up with the exception of my mascara.
Happily I grabbed my shower gel and shampoo, taking a white towel from the bale, I decided on getting a shower.
Discarding my clothes, I walked into the cubical turning on the showerhead. Warm water rushed over my body warming, cleansing and comforting me simultaneously. I tilted my head back letting the water soak my hair.
Massaging the shampoo into my scalp while the jets of water massaged my shoulders, my thoughts returned to James, causing my body to tingle.
Tilting my head back rinsing away the suds in my hair I was relaxed but excited at seeing James momentarily.
After drying me I climbed back into my clothes, staring in the reflexion, there was something different about me that I couldn’t put my finger on, not lingering for too long I made myself a little more presentable, putting my hair into a ponytail and gliding on some mascara.
Looking around the bathroom, reassuring myself that id tidied up my mess, and piled my things in the corner neatly, I closed the door behind me, skipping down the hall way to find James…
‘’Alyssa! There you are’’
Jumping at the sound of his voice coming from behind me, I turned to face him with a mock angry face,
‘’ Don’t scare me like that’’ I growled but within seconds the smile was back on my face as I couldn’t keep up a pretence for very long.
‘’how you feeling?’’ he asked walking towards me from the staircase.
‘’I feel really great’’ I beamed skipping up and throwing my arms around him.
‘’I need to talk to you’’ He responded hesitantly.
I harshly plummeted from cloud nine to earth
‘’I still love you’’ he added Looking at the hurt that was shown clearly in my eyes.
Sighing with relief I started to float back to my former happiness.
‘’ whatever it is can wait’’ I whispered in his ear as he pulled me closer, tilting up my chin with his fingers, leaning down and kissing me.
I was lost in the moment, my mind only focusing on what was happening right now.
His passionate kisses moving from my lips and down to my neck. The tingling sensation came back prickling every inch of my body, intensifying his touches, making me gasp aloud.
I felt him walking, but I dint want to open my eyes, I didn’t want to miss a moment. So a followed his lead.
Coming to a stop, he leaned back against the wall, feeling myself push against him, my body responded with desire.
I guided my hands along his shoulders and down his chest round his back pressing myself against his cool sculptured body.
I felt his body respond to my touch, prompting me to rub myself harder against him.
‘’ ouch’’ I cried jumping back from him horrified ‘’ you bite me’’
I looked up seeing him lick his lips, laden with my blood, he stared at me. His eyes had changed from the deepest blue, replacing them with ebony.
‘’ What the – ‘’ I started to say backing away from him.
‘’ I won’t hurt you’’ he moved towards me holding out his hand.
Confusion swirled around, the blood, his eyes. I was scared, the only time I ever had been of James.
Not taking any chances I ran. I ran down the stairs, panicking not knowing where I was going I found a door nearby, quickly pulling it open as I heard the footsteps of him pursuing me.
