Oakley [ON HOLD]

24

"Ow, fuck me" I hear a quiet breathe murmur after a soft thud.

Peeling my eyes open, I meet Elijah's. His whole body freezes as he's rubbing his shin, seeing I've woken.

I raise my eyebrows at his situations as a wide grins sets upon his features.

"You looks pretty comfy there" he teases as he stands up straight.

I feel my cheeks flush at his comment as I realize how we're laying.

Abel's arm is securely wrapped around my waist, his warm skin meeting mine as it rests on the bare skin just above my hip. The right side of my body is essentially half on top of his as his other hand is holding my thigh as it tangles with his legs. My head tucked up to his chin as his head slightly rests on mine.

I turn my head, pressing it into Abel's chest lightly to hide my flushed features as Elijah quietly chuckles.

"Awwww that's so cute!" he coo's.

"Anyways I just came to grab something, I'll see you guys later" he whispers as I peek open one eye and slightly nod as he heads toward the door.

Elijah tries to close it quietly but a loud squeak sounds right as it clicks close. My body freezes as I feel Abel take in a deeper breath and move slightly. His hand resting on my thigh slightly flexes and his thumbs moves back and forth soothingly. The movement causes my breath to catch and warmth to spread down my leg, his hand on my hip also seeming to heat up as I focus in on the warmth of his touch.

Before I can register what I'm doing I quickly sit up from our position and put space between us, causing his eyes to shoot open alarmingly at the shift.

He immediately sits upward as I pull my knees up to my chest and my back rests against the wall his bed is pushed up against.

"So-sorry, I was lying on you" I manage to get out as nervousness sets into my thoughts.

I look back up only for my nervousness to subside as he looks at me with a small boyish smile.

"Come back" he says, his voice deep and tired as sleep coats it.

I hesitantly scooch closer as he bends one knee, sitting like half as you would if you crossed your legs to sit. I settle right into that area, sitting cross legged as I lay my hand in my lap.

His fingertips skim across my skin as he tucks a loose strand of curls behind my ear, his hand dropping to my lap as he lays his open palm out. My eyes flit to his as he gazes at me, his eyes flicking across my features.

I lightly skim my fingertips across his hand before resting it against his. His fingers lightly wrap around mine as his thumb moves back and forth soothingly across my skin.

"I'm sorry it took me so long to explain everything" he murmurs.

I smile warmly at his words.

"You didn't, I should have listened to you sooner" I reply.
