Heal The Broken Pieces

Chapter 6: Like Me?

Aurora’s POV

Waking up I’m met with Archer’s face in my chest and my arm around him and when I look down I see that we are under the blanket that I brought down last night, lifting the blanket I see that he is spooning me as I’m curled up beside him. I blush feverishly and just admire his face. He has a strong jawline with some hair starting to sprout from his chin, he has thick long lashes that cover his beautiful gray eyes, his little button nose and his hair which is growing longer. I lightly use my fingers to run along his cheek before caressing it then I run it along his jawline before using my thumb to run along his cherry lips which are soft even to the touch of my fingers. I let my hand fall over his shoulder before cuddling into him some more and sighing.

“What are you doing to me?” I say quietly before closing my eyes once more and falling into the dark abyss called sleep.

Archer’s POV

I wake up only to see my face in Aurora’s chest so I blush at the closeness and how we are currently situated. I look at her face and smile, she is so cute. I grab my phone and take a picture before looking at her. Her long lashes, pink cherry kissable lips, blonde locks that are so luscious and shiny, don’t even get me started on her eyes. Those blue eyes that I could look into and get lost in, they draw me in like the ocean and I just get so vulnerable. What is she doing to me? Sigh, is this even fair?

I go to pull away from her only to have her tighten her hold on me making me smile but I need to use the bathroom so I slowly remove myself from her and run to the bathroom and do my business. I brush my teeth and wash my face while I'm there and I feel a little more awake. I wash my hands and walk out going back into the living room only to see it empty so I walk around looking for her and I see her covered in her blanket walking around so I raise an eyebrow.

“Aurora? What’s wrong?” she jumps frightened and turns around before walking over to me and hugging me tightly “I thought you left me” she says softly making me frown “no I went to the bathroom” she pulls away so I lift her and carry her to her room “get yourself ready we are going into town” she looks at me questioningly “why?” I shrug “the fridge is almost empty” she nods and I turn to walk away but she grabs my hand so I turn looking at her and she just stares at me so I sigh.

“I’ll be in my room getting ready so when you’re finished getting ready just come in my room if I don’t come for you okay” she nods before letting go of my hand slowly and walking over to the bed where she spreads the blanket then goes off into the bathroom closing the door and I take that as my cue to leave. I head into my room to the bathroom where I shower and wash my hair before stepping out and drying myself before wrapping a towel around my waist and have another drying my hair, after being satisfied with how my hair is I run my hand through it before putting away the towel and walking out the bathroom.

I head into the closet and pull on boxers dropping the towel on the towel rack then grabbing dark blue jeans with a close fitting shirt and a pair of combat boots. I head out of the closet and I don’t see Aurora so I walk to her room and as I enter I see her curling her hair and I just stand there looking at what she is wearing which is a yellow summer dress that reaches her thighs but her long toned legs are on display making me wet my now dry lips.

“You look nice” she says before turning to look at me and I smirk “but what is with you and boots?” I wink at her “don’t worry Rora, I don’t always use them” she stares at me before her eyes widen realizing the underlying meaning of my words and she glares at me “you little cagna” she says and I laugh “you look beautiful by the way” she smiles twirling a little “thank you” I nod and sit on the bed as she finishes curling her hair and runs a hand through it making her look even more beautiful so I just sigh looking at her and again I stand going to her so I can mess with her. I stand behind her and she looks at me through the mirror smiling and I look at her only to see the purple mark on her neck making me smirk looking back at her through the mirror.
