How He Saved Her

Chapter Twenty-Four

Aurora

I told Oliver I loved him. And in return? He grabbed my waist with both of his hands and with what seemed to be no effort, pulled me into his lap. I straddled his hip, wrapping my legs around his torso. He pushed me up and guided my lips toward his own. I gently pressed my lips.to his and he put a hand under my jaw adding pressure to the kiss.

I want this to be memorable, so with a last nibble on his bottom lip, I pulled away. I looked up at him and say,"You heard me right?"

He grins widely, all his teeth showing,"I did, principessa. Why do you think I'm trying to kiss you?"

"Because-", I stumble on my words.

He presses his lips to mine,"I heard you. I love you too."

"I love you. God I love saying that", I say biting my bottom lip in happiness. Oliver looks at me like I'm someone who granted him his every wish, before pulling me closer and kissing me again. "Me too. Ti amo", he whispers above my lips before kissing me again. It made me giggle in egaerness. I guide his hand to my waist pulling my shirt over and letting him slip it under. His hands roam on my bare skin while I try to not make too much noise. But the noises make him kiss me harder though and I enjoy that.

"I love you", I whisper to him before placing my hand under the hem of his jersey and slipping my hand underneath his shirt feeling his muscles. He makes a noise which makes me kiss him harder.

"I could get used to this", he whispers and I push him down on the bed, laying on top of him.

I lay in bed shortly after our makeout session, Oliver had stopped after we had started touching his other as he was afraid to move things too fast. I understood that and thruthfully it was me groaning when his fingers made their way to the back of my bra to unclip it. He had pulled away immediately and instead started placing kisses on my stomach. Afterwards, he had kissed me on the head, told me he loved me, and fell asleep with a hand on my stomach.

I should get up and find my shirt, I think in my head but I'm afraid to get up and find my own bed where he would start showing up as soon as I closed my eyes. Here it was safe with the soft noise of Oliver's labored breathing. I loved to look at him the way the moonlight shone on his face, making him look ethereal. I wanted to stare at his face the whole night, but I was a guest in his house and his parents expected me to be in my own bed.

Especially after our makeout session, his parents would appreciate it more if I didn't sleep next to him. I wanted to respect them. I slowly picked up his hand and moved it off of my stomach, which was easy he had just fallen asleep. His eyes fluttered though and he mumbled,"Aurora?"

I placed a hand on my cleavage, covering it,"Oh sorry, I'm just heading back." I placed my hand on the bed and started searching for my shirt. He had helped me taken it off before, oh it hit me. He had thrown it on the floor. I made a move to leave in search of it, but his hand on mine stopped me. "Stay", he says.

I shake my head,"I can't. you're parents don't want me to, so I won't."

"Not even for me?", he says his eyes finding mine. He looked exhausted barely keeping his eye open. I sigh and lean down and say,"I love your parents too much to go against their wishes" before planting a kiss close to his ear.

"I love you", he says and starts to smile. I can't help but smile also. The phrase makes me feel warm and I truly believe I'm in love with him. "Ti amo", I whisper back and step away from the bed searching for my shirt. I find it close to the foot of the bed. With a hand still on my chest, I start to pull it over my head. My hand is still on my chest as I pull my arm through.
