#43 Mick - Morning Sun

MADDIE POV.: I was sitting on the roof of my house at 4 am, staring at the horizon and expecting the sun to rise. As it's almost middle of autumn, is a little bit cold here and I usually won't leave home without one of my sweaters. My hair was blown by the wind, and my face was lit by the sky, which was tinted with orange-pink reflections. I haven't been able to sleep properly for a few days now and I come here to think and relax. Here I'm surrounded by silence and I can only hear the rustling of leaves and the melodious singing of birds, which allows me to clear my thoughts. It is very nice here. I sat down as usual, my knees pressed against my chest, rested my chin on them and wrapped my arms around them, shivering with cold.
-Maddie...- I heard a soft, slightly firm, but more than familiar voice behind my back. But I didn't turn my head to be sure.
-Mad... You will catch a cold in that sweater... It's already autumn...- Mick said and sat down next to me, in loose position. His left leg was bent at and his right leg was stretched loosely. He put his left hand over the knee and put his right hand next to my leg. I didn't answer him, but I still looked at the horizon looming in front of us -Maddie... Look at me for a moment...- he said quietly, lightly stabbing my hip bone with his finger. He did it so insistently that I had to smile and let go of my legs to straighten them. So I shifted my position, straightened my legs and crossed them in ankles and leaned back on my outstretched arms.
-What are you doing here Mick?- I asked him quietly, almost like a whisper, letting him know that I acknowledged his presence.
-I'm worried about you... You seem different and distant...- I didn't reply to that, so we sat in silence for a while. Even though we've been quiet, Mick didn't stop his little "attacks" on me, which made me want to laugh.
-Stop it!- I asked him, laughing, but he didn't stop, so I looked at him without changing my position -What?!
-Why are you so pensive?! You normally talk more than Ryan, and now what?! You are silent and awake most of the time, on that impossible hours included...- he looked at me, still stabbing me in the left thigh.
-And when are you going to stop stabbing me?!- I answered him right away, dodgeing the question. There was a concern and worry in his eyes that I had never seen before... It made me think a bit...
-Maddie...- he said, shaking his head disapprovingly and added -I'm just worried about you...- he said and changed the stabbing to a gentle stroking, still with only one finger. My smile increased involuntarily.
-You have nothing to worry about...- I answered him honestly, and at the same moment an unpleasant shiver went through my whole body -And what YOU are doing on my roof at this hour?! Shouldn't you be getting your beauty sleep?- I lifted one brow at him.
-I needed to check on you...- he replied softly and added -You see?! I told you, you'd freeze...- he said, taking off his warm jacket and putting it over my shoulders. There, our faces were millimeters apart, and I got lost in his ocean blue eyes. AGAIN...
I have no idea what I was tempted by, but I shifted a little more and kissed him. Mick, who just had his hands on my shoulders, because he was adjusting my jacket collar, when our lips joined together, moved them over my neck, to cradle my face and brush my cheeks with his thumbs in gentle manner.
The kiss lasted a while, it was sweet and gentle, but passionate in it's own way. When we ran out of air, I pulled back a little and bit my bottom lip, as I tried to catch my breath.
-You'll get cold...- I whispered, looking at him, only in t-shirt.
-I'll manage...- Mick replied softly and pressed his forehead to mine, continuing to brush my cheeks with his thumbs -I love you Maddie...- he added, looking deeply into my eyes -You and only you, not Anita, not anybody else... Only you...
-I love you too...- I gasped, and Mick kissed me again. I accepted it without thinking, and clenched my hands on front of his T-shirt, to pull him close. We kissed a dozen or so seconds, then Mick moved away by literally a few millimeters and put his left hand on my hip, putting his fingers behind the loin of my pants. That way, he could easly pull me on his lap, which made me straddle his hips. We looked deeply into each other's eyes with smiles on our faces. We didn't need words, just glances.
-The sun is up...- I whispered, still looking deeply into his eyes.
-That's why you need to go back to your room and get some sleep..- he replied gently, and I gave him a look. -I'm not joking Maddie, we need to sleep! Both of us...- just as he said that, I yawned loudly.
-See? You're already tired! Come on! Let's go!- he said, stroking my backs gently, putted me down, stood up and extended his hand in my direction.
-Fine- I rolled my eyes and took his hand in mine, so Mick could pull me to my feet. In comfortable silence we came back to my room, and I quickly got changed into pj's.
-Goodnight...- Mick said, as I came back to the bedroom, and gave me a tight hug. As he was taller, he easly could place his chin on top of my head. But before that, I got sweet kiss on forehead.
-Goodnight...- I mumbled, and reluctantly let go of him.
-See you tomorrow...
-Yeah, tomorrow- we smiled at each other, and Mick got close to the window, to get out of my house, and then to go to his.
-Mick!- I shouted behind him.
-Yes Love?- he turned back to me. This little nickname got me smiling widely.
-Your jacket- I took the piece of clothing in my hand and passed it to him.
-Thanks. See you tomorrow...
-Yeah...- he disappeared out of the window, and I snuggled into the covers, to actually get some sleep. I never thought that my sitting on the roof will turn out like this...
THE END
