Light Me Up Again

chapter 4

Luci

I lay in the hospital bed surrounded by my family and friends, but all I wanted was to be alone with Arlo to work things out. My room is filled with gifts and bright yellow sunflowers. I look around the room and notice Elliot isn't here. he's probably spending the night with his fiancé and I don't blame him.

"How are you feeling, honey?" my mum says while leaning over to hug me. I smile at her shrug, my shoulders. "I feel ok, tired, but ok. I want to go home, though. " She starts to brush back the hair from my face with her hand. "Only if they let you go."

Christian walks into the room with Arlo, "Ok ladies, get out please give us some space." I can see Christian shuffling them out of the room and quickly, too. "There peace and quiet," he whispers, and we all burst into laughter. "Thank you Christian, it was becoming too much to handle." I smile and lean back on the bed.

Arlo lays beside me while Christian looks over my file. "It looks like you're going to be fine, but we want to keep you here for one more night in case of anything." I knew it, I knew they would keep me again, I just wanted to be at home comfortable. "Fine, as long as Arlo gets to stay with me." Christian nods,"not an issue at all. "

In the background, I can hear Christian telling everyone my results and suggest that they go home. As I look out the door and watch everyone as they wave goodbye and blow kisses, I see Elliot and Anna hand in hand walking past. He did come, but why didn't he come see me.

I feel a kiss on my head. "I'm sorry, babe, he didn't come in. I know that's probably killing you right now. " He was right it was killing me. I thought we agreed to be friends.

Arlo walks to the door and turns the light off in the hallway outside the room. He closes the door and pulls the privacy screen around the bed. "Finally, alone at last," he says as he walks back towards the bed. I grab his hand and squeeze it tight, "Arlo, I am sorry for yelled at you and then braking  down in front of you, my dad always tells me to listen to reason and I didn't. I didn't listen to your side of the story, and I'm sorry. But at the same time, I needed you, and you didn't step up. You say you love me, and I am the love of your life, but you didn't protect me from her. How is that love? I'm not trying to upset you or make you feel bad, but I want to be open and honest with you for our relationship to last."

his eyes are watching me. He leans in to kiss me and the feeling of his soft plump lips touching mine, sending fire through my body. I missed him; I missed his touch. He continues to kiss me, leaving little time to take a breath.

He slides his hands down my body and in between my legs. I'm getting wet, and my body wants him now. he slips his fingers into me and starts moving them up and down, I let out a small moan. "Shhh, try be quiet we are in a hospital," he whispers into the ear as he nibbles on it.

I throw my head back and take in a deep breath. "Oh baby, it feels so good." He begins to quicken his movement harder and faster, "Oh yes!" I say as I feel my body tense."I'm going to come, " I say out loud and my body releases. All my muscles instantly relax, and I am in ecstasy. "Mm baby, you came so hard the bed is wet." I feel my face go hot and flash the brightest shade of red. Arlo helps me from the bed and into the shower. He cleans the sheets and aids me back into bed. "Goodnight, my love." "Good night, babe. I love you.
