Between the Sheets

The Contract (Part 13)

Her POV

We start up, we could hear them as they start aguring on the stairs. Adam places his hand on my back, leading me into his room. He closes the door behind him.

"This is all our fault," I tell him.

"They agure over everything. This isn't any different, " He tells me.

I nod. "Now they know," I say.

"Now they know, we done the right thing, Bean," He tells me.

"I love you," I tell him

He pulls me into his arms, kissing my head. "I love you."

"I guess I should go to my room so we don't get yelled at," I tell him.

He lifts my chin. "Ok," he says, kissing my lips.

I leave his room going to my own. Once there, I put some music on to draw out the voice from below. It's seems like hours before there's a kock at my door.

"It's open," I tell the.

Molly steps into the room. "Hey honey," She says.

"Hey, everyone leave," I ask.

"Your mom went home. It was for the best she was a little upset," she tells me.

"Everyone else," I ask.

She smiles. "It shouldn't have come to a surprise to us, really. You and Adam spend so much time alone."

"It wasn't supposed to go as far as it did." I admit,"a little game of cat and mouse truned into something I don't think either of us expected. "

"What are you saying?" She asked.

I look out the window of my room. There's a bird in the tree nearby. I smile as I see it hopping from branch to branch.

"I love him," I tell her

She nods. "We have rules here, understand."

"Yes ma'am," I say

"We expect you to follow them,"

"I know,"

"Your mother wants to take us back to court because of this," She tells me.

"But it's not your fault," I say.

She shakes her head. "We will deal with it if it comes along. For now, let's try not to do anything outrageous. "

I smile. "Yes ma'am"

"Have you and Adam talked about what you're going to do?" She asked.

"We really just officially become a couple," I tell her.

She looks at me, not really understanding. "So your relationship before was?"

"Just physical," I admit, biting my lip.

I looked down at my knotted fingers, and talking about this with Molly was hard, but it was easier than having to talk to my own mother.

"He didn't force me to do anything," I tell her. "It was a mutual agreement between both of us." I let her know.

She nods, patting my leg. "You're dad should be in here soon."

"Are we grounded?" I ask.

"I don't think grounding would do any good right now under your circumstances," She says.

I nod. "Thank you for talking to me." I say

She smiles. "You know I will always listen,"

"Molly, Adam is the only one I've been with. That night, Raymond Baker broke into the house." I say tears come to my eyes
