Him & I

Chapter 26

The morning sun hits my face waking me up. I turn to look at the boy next to me. He's still asleep. A frown is plastered on his gorgeous face. He looks unreal.

His messy hair has fallen on his forehead making him look like a baby. He looks so peaceful, so serene. It makes me wonder.. how did I get so lucky?

No one ever landed eyes on me before and now an attractive guy like Kyle likes me? It just doesn't seems real. But it is. He likes me, I know he does. And I.. I love him.

I place my hand on his cheek, lightly brushing my thumb on his full lips. His lips are mine now. Only I get to kiss them. I smile at the thought as I continue to touch his soft lips.

His eyelids flutter and he opens his eyes. I immediately pull my hand away feeling embarrassed that he caught me doing that even though he does it all the time to me.

A lazy smile is plastered on his face as he takes my hand and puts it back on his cheek. -"Good morning love"- he says and the familiar feeling of the butterflies hits my stomach. Just a simple word from him makes me weak to my knees.

"Good morning"- I say staring into his eyes. Every time I look at them I feel like I'm under his spell. I can't help it. That's what love does to you. It consumes you completely making you vulnerable. It is such a beautiful feeling.

"How did you sleep?"- he asks and places soft kisses on my hand that's still on his cheek. -"I slept well. You?"- I ask trying my hardest not to get distracted by his hot lips on my skin.

"Me too"- he responds. I scoot closer to him, burying my head on his chest. Something that I do a lot since we got together. He plays with my hair and I place kisses on his bare chest.

He looks down at me, taken aback by my action. That is only for a few seconds because his smile returns again when I place a kiss on his chin. His arms become tighter around me bringing our bodies as close to each other's as possible.

"Heaven, I.."- he begins to say making me look up at him. -"I am.."- he stops when he looks at me. -"Nevermind"- he then says as he pushes my head into his chest so I'm not looking at him.

What was that now. He can't just start something and not finish it. I'm way too curious to let it go. -"What where you about to say?"- my noisy ass asks.

"Nothing.. I forgot. It wasn't important anyway. Let's get up, it's late"- he says unwrapping his arms from my waist and getting up. He heads to the bathroom leaving me confused. What did he want to say and why did he change his mind?

I push my thoughts away and get up as well. Kyle is showering so I wait patiently for him to come out. The running water stops and Kyle walks out of the bathroom.

As always, a towel is wrapped low around his waist making it too difficult for me not to admire his body. I shake my head taking my clothes and toiletries in my hand.

"Are you done in the bathroom"- I ask and he nods opening his drawer. I walk in the bathroom and close the door behind me, letting him get dressed.

I brush my teeth and take a refreshing shower. The water running down my body relaxing my muscles. I do my shower routine and get ready. I wear a green floral dress that is soft and allows me to move freely.

I take my hair brush in hand and I'm reminded of how Kyle helped me comb my hair yesterday. Should I ask him again? I didn't ask yesterday, he just wanted to do it and I'm not sure if I should ask him now.

It's not that I can't do it myself, I just love watching him do it for me. Whatever I'll just ask him. Worst case scenario he'll say no and I'll get embarrassed. It is worth a try.
