we were only in the car for an hour before we were back in atlanta. carl began giving me directions, even though i had a plan on where to head.

he took me into the suburbs, telling me to pull up outside a house. as he dragged me inside, i asked 'where have you taken me?'

'you'll see. the door was open and he moved through the house. i checked downstairs as he went upstairs, locking the door with the key under the mat outside when we knew it was clear.

'will you tell me what we're doing here now?' he didn't say anything, only pointing to a picture on the wall in the hallway upstairs. i saw 3 people, a man in an atlanta sheriffs uniform and a woman with long dark brown hair and a motherly smile, and a young boy, around 7 with dark brown hair, cut into a bowl cut. 'your childhood home?'

he nodded 'yeah. i thought we should come here instead. i loved this place, and i wanted to coe back. and take you here.'

i kissed him 'that's so sweet. i love you.'

'i love you too.' he mumbled against my lips.

i pulled away 'so does this mean i can see your childhood bedroom?'

he laughed, pulling me down the hall do a door that had big dark blue letters painted on them, reading "carl". he pushed it open and i saw a typical 10 year old boys bedroom. there was a low twin bed pushed off to the side. the shelves were decorated with star wars figurines and lego buildings with the boxes behind them. in the middle of the floor was an unfinished lego project that would have turned out as the death star.

i smiled as i looked around, 'it's cute.'

he laughed, coming over to where i was from the doorway and wrapping his arms around me from behind, looking around 'i loved my room. i rarely left it.'

'i see why, you had so much lego.' i smiled like a small child as i went over to the display shelves.

he laughed at my childish behaviour 'you like lego?'

'i love lego. i like building stuff, so my parents would buy me lego and my dad would let me help with his carpentry hobby in the garage sometimes.'

'did you have it all on display?' he asked, seeming interested in my childhood.

'no.' i shook my head 'i'd build them and then smash them to build my ow stuff with the pieces. i wanted stuff like Hogwarts and the millennium falcon. but my parents said they were for boys and i got Disney princess castles. matthew let me help him with his stuff though because he got all the sets i wanted.'

'damn, that sucks, i'm sorry.' he pulled me in 'but there's a half finished death star below our feet if you wanted to finish that.' he laughed.

we sat on the floor for a few hours, finishing the set and putting it up on the display with all the other star wars stuff.

it was now beginning to get dark. i drew the curtains as carl left the room. i followed him to another room, it had his baby picture on the side that he tipped to face down 'but i wanted to see them.' i complained making him laugh. 'whos room was this?'

'my parents.' he answered as he stripped himself of his shirt, pants and hat and climbed into the bed. 'don't just stand there, come on. we need sleep.' i still stayed where i was in the doorway 'we're not both getting in my bed, i don't think even one of us could, and it's not like anyone lives here, so we can sleep in here.'

i was hesitant before stepping forward, 'is the back door locked?'

he nodded 'i locked it earlier, when i locked the front door. just come to bed.' he laughed as i also stripped down to my underwear, climbing in next to him.

'oh my god, this is the most comfortable bed i have ever slept in.' i laid back, closing my eyes and smiling.

'see. not so bad after all.' he laughed. i laid my head on his chest as he held me around my waist. 'taylor.' he whispered.

as i looked up to him, he leaned down connecting our lips. they moved perfectly in sync as he rolled to be hovering over me. his tongue prodded at my bottom lips, asking for entrance which i happily granted as he deepened the kiss.

his hand went to my back, trying to unclasp my bra, but failing miserably, even after a few tries. i held his hands, reaching behind my back to help him get it off me, all while not breaking the kiss. one i was free of my bra, he kissed down my neck, trailing down to lick one of my nipples. as he sucked at one bud, he twisted and pulled at the other, making me quietly moan and tangle my fingers into his hair.

as he moved back up to my lips, i rubbed him through his boxers, eventually slipping my hand in. he groaned in my ear and whispered 'that feels so good. i love you.' before capturing my lips with his. he slipped his boxers off before pulling down my panties.

he leaned back, breaking the kiss 'are you sure you want to do this?'

i pulled him back in '100 percent.'

once i had given his my consent, he leaned back in, kissing along my neck as he slowly pushed himself inside me. i gasped at tears came to my eyes and pain built. slowly, pain faded to pleasure and i gave him the signal to star moving. he began at an agonisingly slow pace before i begged 'faster. please.'

the speed began to build as i covered my mouth to muffle my moans. he replaced my hand with his lips as he got me closer to my climax. 'carl, please. i'm nearly there.'

'me too.' he whispered back as his speed built even more.

i screamed out his name as we both reached our highs. he slowed down to a stop before pulling out and flopping onto the bed beside me. 'that was amazing.' he panted.

i rolled to face him 'i love you, so much carl.'

'i love you too.' he pecked my lips 'i missed you so much too.'

we fell asleep in each others arms.
