Dangerous Love

Petra Ramirez

I woke up in the middle of the night to strange moaning sounds coming from the guest bedroom where Kylie was staying. I looked over at Ellie who was sleeping peacefully with her stuffed bunny beside me. I groggily got out of bed and followed the noise, which seemed to be getting louder.

As I approached Kylie's door, my heart raced with confusion and concern. I knocked on the door, suddenly everything went quiet, and I heard a loud thud coming from inside the room.

Kylie opened the door, wrapped in a sheet. I couldn't help but give her a puzzled look, my eyebrows furrowing. I asked her, "What are you doing? You're being loud."

"Ow! Why the hell did you push me off? I wasn't done." A voice spoke which sounded like a male behind Kylie.

Kylie rolled her eyes and said, "Oh, cry me a river, Elijah." Her nonchalant reply only added to my confusion.

My eyes widen as I realize what happened, "It smells like sweat and sex in this room, Kylie!"

She shrugs her shoulders before saying, "What do you want me to do about it?"

I roll my eyes, I can't believe that she is sneaking some guy around. What are we fifteen again?

I shake my head in disbelief before asking, "Why are you sneaking around like some teenager? If you have a guy over I don't care."

Kylie laughs nervously, "You know what, it's a beautiful day outside go get some fresh air with Ellie. Maybe go feed the birds."

"It's two in the morning."

Kylie stays quiet for a second, "Well, maybe I do have a guy in my bed."

"On your floor you mean?" A guy's voice spoke, he sounded very angry.

"Then get up from the floor!" Kylie shouts as she turns around to look at him

The guy rushes over to the door as he is holding a pillow over his groin, "Hello, I'm Elijah Kylie's boyfriend."

Kylie glares at him once he says that before slapping him on the arm, "We are not dating!"

He holds his hand out so I can shake it, I look down at it and raise a brow, "I'll shake it when you get her juices off of it."

Kylie's eyes go wide after what I said, "Petra! Language."

"What are juices mommy?" A soft voice spoke from a distance causing me to turn around and see Ellie rubbing her eyes lightly as she held Blue in her left arm.

Oh my God.

I quickly rushed over to her, "Ellie, what are you doing awake? You should be in bed."

"I noticed that you weren't in bed with me." She responds.

I chuckled a little bit before picking her up, "Let's get you to bed."

"But mommy what are they?" She questioned, making me ignore her question.

I woke up around eight and started getting ready for work. Once I was done I decided to make breakfast for Ellie.

As I was drinking my coffee in the kitchen going through some emails. I hear Ellie run into the kitchen and pull out a chair, then around and see her sitting down at the kitchen island, wearing her pajamas while she is holding her stuffed bunny in her right arm.

"Good morning, love." I greet her before placing a kiss on her forehead.

She smiles as a small yawn escapes her mouth, "Morning Mommy."
