"holland?", I spoke walking into the office in her house
"yes sweetheart", holland answered not looking up from her work
"are you nearly done with work?"
"yeah sure", holland spoke distracted
"you said that an hour ago, you haven't stopped working all day", I huffed walking over next to her
"okay", holland murmured
"holland?", I placed my hands on her shoulders, leaning down to kiss her neck "holland, it's late. You can finish this tomorrow", I spoke close to her ear
"I don't have that much more to do", holland said completely pre-occupied
"come on", I took the pen out of hollands hand
"darling don't!", holland said quite fiercely
I stood there, rather taken back by her sudden tone
"I'm going to have a bath, and you can calm down", I spoke quickly walking out the door
"honey", holland sighed
I wasn't angry at holland, or hurt, however she needed to breathe. Holland had been quite stressed lately, it was two weeks until our break and she a lot of work that she was eager to complete.
I stripped down, hopping into the bath, instantly relaxing into the water
"Sarah darling", holland knocked on the bathroom door "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have snapped at you", holland knelt down next to the bath
"I'm not mad", I spoke kindly "I just want you to relax", I reached out cupping her cheek
"I'm sorry"
"do you want to join me? it may help you relax", I said sympathetically
holland kissed my palm before undressing and walking over to me, beginning to get into the bath behind me
"no, I want you in front of me", I stopped her
holland smiled, laying down between my legs, pressing her back against me.
I wrapped my arms around her waist, placing a kiss on the side of her head
"thank you", she breathed
"we've been something for a month", I spoke sheepishly
"mm, that sounds rather lovely doesn't it?", holland hummed, lacing her fingers in-between mine
"can I take you for dinner? we have never been on a proper date", I said anxiously
"we can't", holland sighed
"why not?"
"because what if someone sees us?", holland looked back at me
"it's so fucking unfair", I cursed "I want to do something other than be in your house all the time", I huffed
"I know sweetheart, maybe some day", holland kissed me
"when", I breathed
"well, if there is still something between us when you graduate. Then everything will be completely different", holland nodded
"why wouldn't we be together when I graduate?"
"I don't know darling, I'm just trying to give you a view of the future", holland assured me

after a night full of kissing in the bath before endless sex, I quickly rushed home before holland woke up
