Chapter 9: His First Compromise

Hello again, my lovelies :D! Chapter 9. I figured this one needed a name too because really it is Nathan's first compromise. Enjoy guys! Vote and comment as usual :D :D ! 

I'm going to try to make this chapter bigger than normal. Operative term being "try".

--------------------------------

"Any reason for that grin, Kitten?" he asked me, tracing my mouth with his index, while his other hand was pressed, open-palmed on my back. That hand pressed me to him. Close enough that we were breathing in each other.

"You're breathing hard." I said, pleased with myself.

He raised his eyebrows, confused.

"And?" he asked, looking at me with amusement sparkling in his eyes.

"And you never breathe hard." I said, grinning wider.

His mouth curled with bemusement.

"You look mighty proud of yourself, Kitten."

"You have no idea, Natey." I said.

He made a face. I laughed. He didn't like being called Natey.

Tough luck, sweety.

I traced a line along his eyebrows, down his cheekbones and across his jaw. Then, I pressed open mouthed kisses along his jaw. He leaned forward, letting me pet him. My hands were curved around his shoulders when I felt a rumbling along his chest that shuddered through me.

"You're purring." I marvelled, pulling him down a little more and kissing his brow.

He didn't say anything but the rumbling increased, telling me I was doing something right.

And I lost balance on my skates again.

Laughing, Nathan caught me.

"You're way too much trouble, sweetheart." he said, chuckling.

I held on to his shoulders for dear life.

"Please. You wouldn't have me any other way." I said, pressing my lips just below his shoulder.

"No, I wouldn't have you any other way." he said.

I placed my cheek against his shoulder.

 "Maybe we should get off the ice. I don't want you to hurt yourself. That would just ruin the whole point of this date." he said, taking my hand and leading me off the rink.

I pouted.

"Do we gotta go?" I asked.

He took his skates off and seating me on the bench, took mine off as well.

"I'll bring you another day." he said, pressing a soft kiss to my cheek.

"Promise?" I asked, leaning closer to him.

"On chocolate. With chocolate sauce and chocolate chips." he said smiling.

I grinned, content that he'd bring me again. I watched him go place our skates on the shelf filled with all sizes of skates in different colours. I think there was even a florescent orange colour.

Yuck.

"Let's get you to your dorm." he murmured walking back and holding out his hand.

I placed mine in his and watched how he unconsciously tightened his hand on mine, possessively.
