Last Chances

School

Rebecca came round at 08:00am Emily was still asleep so I let her in.

"Emily?" I call from outside her door "Are you asleep?"

The last thing I want to do is walk in on her if she is half naked or something.

When I hear no reply I presume that she is asleep. She is sleeping on her right side facing the en suite door with her knees curled up. She looks so cute and peaceful.

I take of my jacket and rucksack and place them on the floor quietly so I don't wake her up.

"Emily?"

I walk round to her side of the bed and kneel down so my face is inline with hers. I look at her for a moment taking in how beautiful she is.

I may not be in love, I may not know what liking someone truly feels like, I'm not even sure I have felt this way before in my life. She is not perfect but this feeling that I am experiencing right now feels like I have achieved my goal in life.

"Emily?" I whisper whilst shaking her body a little bit to try and wake her up.

At the touch of my fingers against her skin she mumbles but I can't make out what she was saying. Gradually she opens her eyes. And then when she realises that its me she jumps in surprise.

"Oh my god" She says wrapping the duvet tighter round her body.

"Bloody hell Peter I thought you were an alarm clock!"

"Oh okay well I'm not"

"What are you doing here anyway?"

"Wakening you up"

"But why?" She questions

"Both of our parents are out so there is no one else to wake you up so I had the pleasures this morning. It is seven thirty and you are going to be late for school"

I can hear Emily's footsteps around the kitchen. She walks over to me when I was over at the sink putting water in our glasses. I walked over to where she was and handed her it. I lean down and she doesn't freak out. I smile and she smiles back then I slowly place my lips on hers. Instantly I can feel her tense to return the kiss, and she presses her lips harder against mine. Her fingers move over my chest along my back and finally up to my face where she cups my cheeks bringing our heads even closer.

I am shivering the hairs on my body stand out straight even though I feel warm. I can hear my heartbeat beating through my chest.

We both pull away gasping for breath, I open my eyes to look straight into hers. She is nervous just like me. In one movement I grab her legs and place them around my waist.
It feels like I have just ran a marathon. Her dirty blonde hair is all ruffled and messed up, and I bet my hair is aswell.

I lean in again but not to her lips but to her cheek and I leave her with a little peck on her cheek.

"Peter" she whispers

"Uhuh" I say breathing into her neck.

"We are going to be late for school" she whispers in my ear sending shivers down my spine.

"I don't care" I hum again not moving my head from her neck.

"Come on Peter"

"I have a question to ask" I say my face still on her neck.

"What?" She asks

I pull away and look into her eyes and say 

"Will you be my girlfriend?"
