Chapter Fourteen

"Al!"

Alex giggled, his arms snaking around Chloe and he pulled her body flush against his, planting a quick kiss on her cheek when she stopped squirming in his arms once he stopped tickling her and she calmed down, resting her body against his, chest rising and falling rapidly as she panted and tried to catch her breath.

He rubbed her back gently, arm tightening around her as she snuggled up to him and the shared sleeping bag started to feel more spacious than before. "Sorreh" he giggled, his hand wandering slowly up her back and finding its way into her hair, running his fingers through it.

Chloe's eyes fell shut and she hummed softly, making sure she wasn't resting too much weight on him but pressed herself as close to him as she could. She caught herself once again running her thumb over her ring absently again, giggling to herself.

"Wha's funneh?" He mumbled quietly, fingers dancing through her hair still, smiling because he could gradually feel her growing more relaxed, all tension slowly leaving her body and she was so warm as she sank into his arms.

Chloe hummed. "I love the ring so much..." she said, pressing her nose against his jaw, giggling. "I know I shouldn't be surprised by how romantic you are, Al..." She kissed his neck softly. "But you always take me by surprise."

Alex chuckled. "Wanted yeh teh kno' 'ow much yeh mean teh meh ... I fink romantic fings express tha' best."

"You're a dream" she sighed happily, tilting her head to reach his neck more easily, beginning to press more little kisses to it, smiling against his skin when he arched his neck to give her better access and she attached her lips gently to a spot of sensitive skin just below his jaw, nipping lightly on it.

His fingers stopped moving through her hair, his focus on nothing but the touch of her lips for a moment before he let his hand wander down her back slowly, resting on her lower back, then travelling further down to grab at her butt, squeezing it lightly, making her giggle against his skin and squirming slightly.

"Chlo, yeh're um..." he mumbled, sighing as her hand moved slowly up his bare chest, nails grazing over his skin ever so slightly.

"What?" She asked quietly in between the little kisses and bites on his neck.

"Just ... um..." he tried to find his voice, be coherent somehow but she had stolen all the words from his lips and he struggled to tell her even that.

"Yeh're ... uh ... turnin' meh on..."

She giggled. "That's the idea..." she hummed, lifting her head to look at him and brushing his hair gently out of his eyes, blushing slightly.

He nuzzled into the touch of her hand, sighing.

"You wanted privacy for that reason, didn't you, Al?" She questioned sheepishly, looking back at him with innocent eyes.

Alex swallowed hard, only able to manage a slow nod before she kissed him softly again and he wrapped his arms around her to hug her tight, moving his lips with hers more eagerly as he held her, overwhelmed with how close she was, how warm and inviting she felt, pressed up against him and kissing him deeply.

Chloe brushed her fingers through his hair repeatedly, giving it gentle tugs here and there, she loved hearing his little moans against her lips, feeling his arms tighten around her, it made her feel like they were the only two people in the world, like there was no one else but them in that tent, that small space that belonged to just them, far away from anything else.

Alex moaned softly when she tugged on his hair, moving one of his hands slowly up her back, feeling the soft material of her sweater before cupping the back of her neck, leaning up to kiss her harder, the way she was kissing him and pressing her body so close to him, her hips grinding slightly against his thigh, and he didn't even know if she realised she was doing it, slowly starting to affect him. "Mmm, Chlo..." he hummed, pushing his hips up slightly.
