Electricity - Alex Turner

55. I can't escape the way I love you

As she rolled over on the bed and felt that she was alone she opened her eyes and looked around the room. No sight of Alex.

She brushed her eyes with her hands and stood up, looking outside. It was raining again. She looked down and saw that she was only wearing her black underwear and Alex's shirt that was unbuttoned and sat oversized on her.

Arabella opened the bedroom door and walked towards the kitchen where she found him. She smiled when she saw him making coffee and leaned on the wall, waiting for him to notice her.

"Good morning, love." He said, not even looking at her.

"How'd you know I was here?" She chuckled.

"Your brain is clearly not working at this hour sweetheart." He laughed and walked towards her. His stomach fluttered at the sight of her almost naked.

"You're mean." She giggled and pecked his lips. "Good morning. What are you doing here?"

"Since I don't even know how I woke up early, I went out and bought you donuts." He smiled.

"You didn't had to." She snickered.

"Anything for you." He blew a kiss at her as he turned off the stove.

He poured the coffee in two mugs and handed one to Bella and she almost dropped it as it was hot and they both started laughing. She started sneezing and Alex just giggled.

"Are you alright?" He asked.

"Yeah, I might caught a flu or something." She smiled and started to button her shirt was she realised she was wearing only her underwear and Alex's shirt.

"You're blocking the view." He joked and she rolled her eyes and sat down on a chair, being followed by Alex who did the same.

"You're annoyin-" She said but she sneezed again. "Fuck." She huffed a laugh and he cupped her cheeks and leaned in closer to kiss her. "No, I'll give you the flu or whatever this is." She said and slightly pushed him away.

"Do I look like I give a fuck?" He smiled and pressed his lips against hers. Her soft lips touching his made him want more.

"Al if I'm sick you're gonna get sick as well." She mumbled, but she couldn't pull away.

"So?" He smiled. "Bel?"

"Yes?"

"I just wanted to let you know that you're gorgeous." He smiled and she bit her bottom lip as she tried not to grin.

"You're trying to get in bed with me, don't you?" She laughed and looked back at him.

"No. But now since you suggested it...It's not a bad idea." He smirked.

"Give me five minutes, I just woke up." She said and quickly walked to the bathroom, Alex's laughter filling the entire house.

She checked if her period came, which it didn't, brushed her teeth, checked if her body hair has grown back and left the bathroom, unbuttoning Alex's shirt. He wasn't in the room  and she snorted a laugh before she walked back in the kitchen just to see Alex eating cornflakes.

"What did you-" He said and looked up at her, chocking on the milk. "Oh fuck, you meant it."

"Yeah, if that's okay with you." She chuckled and covered herself a little by folding her arms.

"Of course!" He quickly said and stood up. He placed the bowl in the sink and quickly walked towards her.

"No, no, no don't pick me up!" She laughed and tried to ran away but he picked her up in his arms anyway. "Fuck." She chuckled as he placed her over his shoulder, laughing the entire time.
