Teddy

Chapter Twenty Two: Im here *

I leave work late, we had a parents meeting after school and mama has Wren. I have been waiting on a text all day from Teddy to say when she was back from Greece, but as I check my phone and walk out of the school doors, I am disappointed to find my phone empty of her. The breeze catches my dress and sends the hem lifting up slightly as I bat it back down, I pull my denim jacket together with my spare hand against the chill.

"Where are you Ted" I whisper, not looking up as I walk, head in my phone, beginning to text her my displeasure at her lack of contact, when I bump straight into someone. They steady me with their hands on my forearms.

I'm apologising like mad "I'm so so sorry" I say fumbling and bending down, picking back up my purse that's fallen to the floor, before looking back up, and making eye contact with... with... Teddy?!

The dark glossy curls, the deep dimples, the chocolate brown eyes twinkling at me, the charming and beautiful smile. She was dressed in her leather jacket, cropped black tank that revealed her toned flesh, tight dark jeans rolled up at the ankle, and bright white sneakers...

Teddy!!

"I'm here" she says softly, her smile widens as my eyes do to find her in front of me.

"Teddy?" I ask as my heart begins to erratically thump, a rush of adrenaline kicking in as I jump at her.

She stumbles backward as I wrap my legs around her waist and lean in peppering her face in kisses, my hands gripping her cheeks "oh my god...what... are... you... doing...here" I say between kisses until her face is covered.

I draw her urgently to my lips, it's a soft and languid kiss, a flutter of butterflies taking flight in my belly as our tongues meet. The kiss deepens and our lips discover each other all over again, sweet and soft kisses, my lips slipping into hers, my hands reaching up and running through her glorious dark curls as she squeezes the plump flesh of my rear under the dress.

She moans into my mouth as her fingers curl into me, and I smile, breaking the kiss and placing a more gentle peck in its place as she slowly releases me. I slip back down her body until my feet are back on the floor "wow" she says touching her lips with her fingers "that was some homecoming" she remarks amused.

I wrap my arms around her waist and squeeze her so tightly I fear I may break a rib "You smell amazing" I say inhaling her. "And you feel.... God Teddy, you feel fit"

I lean back and pull her top up slightly, poking her muscles "you are hard" I observe nodding appreciatively to myself.

She laughs "I've not heard that one before... "

And I gaze upon her lovingly and sigh as she places her hands around my back pulling me close "Are you ready to be dated" she asks raising a brow.

I smile at her cheeky grin that follows "It's not Valentine's Day" I retort, remembering how that was meant to be our first date.

"Oh" she says pretending to be offended "so you are all about punctuality are you... okay" she says letting me go and walking away.

I frown and then smile with amusement at her as she turns back "where are you going" I ask.

She keeps walking, her fine posterior making me want to growl. "I will be back... " she confirms "on the correct day..." she adds wickedly.

I let out a loud childish groan and stand there in the school yard, hands at my sides with a deep frown line on my forehead, my lip sticking out sulkily. "Valentines day isn't until Monday... it's only Friday" I moan unfairly.
