Light Me Up Again

chapter 5

Arlo

She said it, she really did. She told me she loves me. And it was the best thing I have heard all week. My body lit up when I heard the words fall from her lips, and it ignited something I can't explain. I will make her my wife and we will have a beautiful life.

She fell asleep right after her shower, and it was quite a sight to see her release all over my hand. The effect I have on her body is magical, and I want to pleasure her at any opportunity I can. But tonight, it was going to be one of the best sleeps since she arrived in the hospital.

I wake up to the sound of the screen being pulled back, "Good Morning guys" Robert says as he begins to pack up the medical equipment. I look over to Luci wide awake, looking down at me. "You look so peaceful when you sleep," she says and kisses me. "I am when I'm with you." And kiss her hand.

"Well, I hope you two got some rest last night, and by the look of things, you are set to go home." Luci's eyes light up, and she has a huge smile on her face. "Oh, thank you, dad. I don't want to be here any minute longer." I help Robert pack the room, grab Luci's belongings, and take her home.

It's just after midday, we walk into the house and out the back, to my surprise everyone is over again. "Don't you all have homes to go to?" they turn to us and raise their eyebrows. "What he meant to say is, thank you for being here to welcome me home, but I would like some peace and quiet to rest, so if you could all go home or next door, I'd appreciate it".

Luci saved my arse, "thanks babe". I kiss her head and follow her to her room. As we open the door to our bedroom, there sits Elliot on her bed, waiting for her. Why is he in our room, and how did he know we were coming home? We didn't tell anyone.

He stands to his feet and walks over to us. I pull Luci into my arms and hold her tight. "What are you doing here?" I ask, he looks down to her."I'm sorry Luci, I didn't visit you. I promise I was there, but I was a coward. " Luci looks up to me as she can feel my grip tighten around her. "Elliot, it's ok, I understand, but right now isn't a good time, please leave."

She always finds the right words to say, and they always sound so polite. He leaves the room, and I relax; I place her bag on the floor, close the blinds, and we fall asleep till the next morning.
