To Capture a Heart ✔️

Chapter 38

I'm glad that Louis was staying with mum because I don't see myself getting out of this bed any time soon. Ferris lay next me, his arm around my waist and the other tracing circles on my arm.

"You're so beautiful." He whispers into my ear, thinking I'm asleep. "Like, really fucking beautiful. And I'm so lucky that I have you."

I pretend to stir in my sleep and I turn to face him. I smile up at him and he smiles back, planting a small kiss on my forehead. I wrap my arm around his waist, cuddling into his chest.

"We've got college in a couple of hours." I whisper, drawing shapes on his back.

"Let's skip." He rasps, his morning voice rumbling through the echoey room.

"I've got an exam." I groan, turning to face the ceiling.

"I wish we could stay here for a little longer." He whispered, softly kissing the side of my head. "I wish I could hold you forever."

Ferris curls his arm around my waist, travelling his kisses down my cheek and onto my collarbone.

"I have to go." I groan in frustration because I was slowly getting turned on by Ferris' close proximity and his lips on my scolded skin.

"Then leave." He mumbles, his lips travelling to my breasts.

"Ferris..." I tried to sound calm and collected but my voice came out as a breathy moan.

"Mmm?"

"God... Don't stop." With that, Ferris flips us over, hovering over me.

I don't let him kiss me on the mouth but he makes up for it in other places.

I didn't make it to college in time for my exam today.

Rummaging through my closet, I quickly pick out an outfit and stumble out of the house. I had a few hours of college left and I was planning on making it for them. I had already missed my biology exam and I was planning on making up for it. Me and Ferris got slightly sidetracked today and we ended staying in bed for two more hours.

Running through the gates, I rush to my history class and make it just as everyone was entering the classroom.

"You missed the exam." Tyler whispers from beside me, bringing me out of my dream.

I haven't spoken to Tyler since the night of my birthday party when he took me home after Ferris beat him up. I look up at him grimly.

"How's your face?" I ask sheepishly, smiling at him.

"It's healing. He did quite a number on me."

"Again, I'm so sorry-"

"Don't apologise. It was his fault, not yours." Tyler smiles slightly at me, probably remembering when he caught me and Ferris on the bed. "So... are you guys dating, now?"

I hesitate. Should I tell him. Can I tell him? Would he tell Christina?

"Umm-"

"It's okay. I won't tell your friend." He assures, nodding his head towards me.

"Ah. In that case, yes I am."

"You are dating him?"

"Yep. It's kinda new."

"Right. Well, I wish you both the best of luck in the future."

I smile sweetly, nodding my head in his direction.

"Thank you. And thank you for walking me home that day, I really appreciated it."

"No worries."
