Kill Me Softly

Chapter 2

"Lola! What's taking you so long? I'm getting lonely down here!" Ezra yells through the intercom.

Lola jumps as she snaps back to reality, fumbling to press the button of the intercom next to the bathroom door. "Um... coming love," she mutters, her thoughts scrambled. She faces the mirror again and goes over her plan, "Okay so let's not just jump into it. Maybe I'll ease him into it by bringing up the subject first."

She nods to herself for reassurance and before opening the door she looks down to stomach and lifts her shirt. She rubs her hand over the small bump that has formed after three months. "No worries darling, I have a feeling he'll love this gift much better than any song I make." She smiles to herself and pulls down her shirt while opening the door.

"Boo!"

Lola shrieks her hand flying to her chest. It takes her a second to breathe again and register what's going on. Ezra lets out a hearty laugh as he stares at her ghost white face, her lips are in a perfect 'O' shape. He walks closer to her and attempts to wrap his arms around her but she pushes him away frustrated with his foolishness. "Hun I'm sorry but your... face... oh my god... priceless!" Ezra explains through his chuckles.

She shoots him a glare that could kill, throwing Ezra off guard. He tries to stop his laugh and hug her again but she smacks his arms. "Hey Lol, come on n-"

"Piss off Ezra. I hate when you scare me. You know I'm a huge chicken," she starts walking towards the stairs.

"Oh no you don't. You can't be mad at me on our anniversary!" Ezra runs up to her and scoops her up bridal style and heads for their bedroom. She yelps again but doesn't fight, instead crossing her arms over chest not facing his chest. "Hmm... quite are we? I can change that," he says darkly.

Lola turns to glare at him but bites down on her lips to stop them from smiling when she sees his sexy smirk. He smiles at her attempt to stay mad, knowing that he was already one step closer to being forgiven. He kicks open the bedroom door effortlessly and gently lays her down on the bed.

Lola quickly turns her body away from Ezra and hides her face in a pillow. She feels the bed dip next to her as Ezra joins her, the heat of his body radiates off him warming Lola. He purposefully kept a few inches of space between each other, only letting his fingers play with her hair. He twists strands of her hair along his fingers.

Lola grinned into the pillow but made sure her face was covered. She adored the moments Ezra  would play with her hair, it always relaxed her. Ezra sweeps her hair to one side and places a kiss on the back of her neck. She squirms and takes a peak from behind the pillow. His face was inches away and she could feel his cool breath on her face. She quickly hides her face again knowing she was close to breaking. She heard him laugh softly. He continued to lay gentle kisses on her neck and after each kiss he would blow on her neck softly, sending shivers down her spine. She couldn't take it any longer. She looked up from her pillow, biting the edge of the pillow trying not to smile. Ezra tucked a strand of her hair behind her ear and sighs.

"I'm sorry, love. I shall not scare you ever again, pinky promise," Ezra holds up his pinky. Lola smiles lifting her face off the pillow and pushes his hand away. He looks shocked sarcastically. She grins as she climbs on top of Ezra, straddling him with her knees on either side.

She bends down her lips inches away from his ear and says, "You know it's bad to make promises you will break."

"Wha- I am shocked, I am not lying! Check my tongue, black or pink?" Ezra sticks out his tongue. Lola laughs knowing he is using her own bit against her. She plays along, "You know it's looking a bit black, but maybe it's just my eyes."

"Oh really and are you a doctor of some sort," Ezra says raising his eyebrows, and moves his hands up to her waist.

"Well you know, not to brag or anything but I am a pretty darn good pediatrician," She says brushing invisible dust off her shoulder sarcastically.

"Is that so?" Ezra grips her hips and makes circles with his thumb.

"Ya," she grins.

Ezra laughs and pushes her down hovering himself over her body careful not to crush her. Ezra brushes his lips over hers teasingly. She hastily wraps her arms around his neck and pulls him down. Her lips move against his in a rush. He opens her mouth with his tongue and travels her mouth savoring her sweet taste. Lola bites softly on her bottom lip causing a groan to escape from Ezra's throat. He slides his hand up her shirt as Lola moves her hand under his shirt. She skims her hands over Ezra's toned body moving to his back and letting her nails dig in to his back, causing Ezra to shiver with joy. Ezra moves his mouth to Lola's sweet spot and sucks below her ear causing Lola's head to fog up.

He pauses for a moment and feels Lola's nails dig in again in protest. Ezra chuckles and lifts his head to meet Lola's eyes which are closed. "Forgiven, darling?"

She opens her eyes, which are darkened now. "Most definitely," she says breathily.

Ezra grins and starts nibbling against her ear. Lola's head begins to cloud up again. Her eyes fly open when she remembers her to-do list of the day.

She pushes against Ezra and asks, "What's the time?"

Ezra grunts, upset about the sudden outburst and checks the clock on the bedside, "2:13, why?"

"Bloody hell! Ezra the cake!" She pushes Ezra off him and scrambles to stand. Still lightheaded from the events that just took place she trips over her own feet. Ezra jolts up to catch her.

"Careful darling," he chuckles. He kisses her softly and she pushes away again laughing.

"Cake, Ezra!"

"Right cake," he pouts. "You know I'd rather have you for dessert," he says following her downstairs. She rolls her eyes at the horrible pick up line and rushes to grab her purse from the coat closet. She checks behind the door and out the window to see whether she needs a coat or not. By the looks of it she will need a huge coat and sturdy umbrella. She grabs her keys to her new 2013 Audi R8, an early anniversary gift from Ezra, and turns to face him.

"Oh shoot, I wanted to tell you something," she says remembering that she was supposed to ease him into the big news. Well it can wait an hour since the cake is waiting and cannot be picked up late, her conscience shuts her up. Ezra looks at her confused. "Never mind," she sighs. "Okay darling I'll be back in an hour or so. You can survive that long without me, can't you?" she says in a mocking tone.

"No I can't! You might as well stab me yourself, that will be less painful!" he says sarcastically, stabbing himself repeatedly with an imaginary knife. She rolls her eyes giggling and gives him a quick kiss and turns to open the door. She looks at him smiling one last time before closing the door behind her.
