Jake
By the time we pulled into our enormously large driveway, Elena was fully asleep on my lap. Carlos's car was parked in front of my car which I left behind for tonight. I looked over at her again, she looked beautiful even in her sleep. A strand of her soft, black hair lay over her face, covering her smudged makeup. Some of her mascara was smudged, along with her lipstick. Only making her look even more beautiful.
"Elena" I whispered, trying to wake her up
"Elena" I called, still not getting any response
Deciding to let her drowse in her undisturbed slumber, I swept her back into my arms, cautious not to wake her up. Carlos had already rung the doctor and by the time I gently placed her on my bed, the doctor was already here.
I gently shook Elena awake; making her bolt up and look around the room before relaxing when her eyes met mine.
"Doctor's here" I said softly, letting the short, brunette doctor give her a friendly smile
"Alright, let's examine this" She said sweetly, Elena nodding with her lips pursed
"I'll leave you to it then" I said briefly before turning on my heel and exiting the room
My feet absentmindedly carried me to the bar, joining Carlos who had a bottle of whiskey open.
"She's going to murder if you drink" I snickered
"Shit" He put his glass down on the counter
"How was your trip anyway?" I asked pouring myself a glass
"Amazing" He replied
"She kicked your ass didn't she?" I chuckled
"It's not like Elena can do the same to you" He sneered
"Fuck no" I said, rolling my eyes
"I see how you look at her, hermano, might as well go for it"
"I don't have time for relationships, not with Zolotov running around" I countered
"Come on brother" Carlos jeered
"Fuck off" I retorted
I downed the rest of my drink, spilling its burning contents down my throat before flipping off Carlos and storming off, leaving him in laughter and a hidden smile playing on my face. I made my way back to Elena's room, to find her leg wrapped and the doctor putting away bandages.
"How is it doctor?" I asked with a stone cold expression coating my face
"She'll have to take it easy for three or four days, it's not something big, just a sprain, she'll be back to normal within a week" She explained
"Alright" I said in dismissal as she took the hint and left
Elena sighed angrily, throwing her head back on her pillow. I walked over to my dresser, fishing out a T-shirt and balled it in my hands.
"Wait a fucking week, how fun" Elena muttered angrily
"Take it easy, Querida" I guffawed
"Try waiting one week in bed, would you?" She snapped
"I told you to be careful" I repeated teasingly
She rolled her eyes at me; I was starting to like when she does that now. I tossed the T-shirt into her hands, catching it in mid-air before whispering a thanks. She shifted from her old position, now trying to sit up before grimacing in pain. I opened my bedside drawer and pulled out some painkillers.
"Wait here" I said, turning to the kitchen
Carlos's car was now gone from his usual spot in the large garden I had ordered to be made for no reason. Perro was trotting beside me while wagging his tail excitedly. I reached down to stroke him while getting a glass of water from the pantry cupboard. Just as I set down the glass on the counter, something small dropped, leaving the sound of light metal hitting the ground behind. I looked around for what fell to find a small ring on the floor; Elena's ring. I picked it up before Perro could accidentally consume it. It was a simple and light gold ring with a dainty emerald branding it. It was the ring that held significant importance to her. I tucked it into my pocket and filled my glass and returned back to my room.
When I got back, she was laying on my bed, in only the T-shirt I handed her. If I could compose a musical piece of how I felt, I'd call it; Vagabond meets Goddess.
I made a mental note to write a piece on that very moment, in my own world of music, floating in a pool of amity in a world where I didn't have to look behind my back. Snapped from the trance I sedated myself into, I handed the water and the painkillers to her. She looked perfect, hair tousled, lipstick smeared and in nothing but my T-shirt.
I sat down next to her on the bed, the dim light reflected in her doe-like eyes.
"Where are you going to sleep?" She asked
"I can just get some pillows and blankets" I said, nudging towards the floor
"Or, you could just come here, you'll freeze your ass down there" Elena giggled
This was the first time I could see the humorous, and careless side of Elena, the side that didn't have guards up and protecting each corner of the perimeter of her heart. I just nodded, taken aback by her invite.
"You were amazing today, you know?" I said after a short pause
"So were you"
"I mean, you saved our asses from that, I didn't think of an escape route if it went wrong"
"Wasn't it your rule to always be one step ahead?" She asked seductively, inching closer to me
"Exactly" I replied, my voice matching the same tone as hers
I caged her wrists, making her immobile as she let out a gasp of surprise.
"One step back, two steps forward, Querida" I whispered in her ear
I held both of her wrists above her head, pinned onto the headboard with one of my hands keeping them secure. We shared our breath, my lips gently feathering over hers, teasingly.
"Playing a dangerous game Mr. Santiago" She purred, only fueling me even more
Taking her bottom lip between my teeth, my hands met both sides of her hips. I could feel her skin burning through the soft fabric under the shirt. Our tongues danced in perfect symphony. I bit down on her bottom lip, making her moan out loudly and encouraging my need for her even more.
