IF I FALL - #Wattys2016

DIFFERENT | TOM

I woke up in the middle of the night and the first thing I did was to check if she was still here.

But she wasn't. She was already gone.

Couldn't believe I fell asleep. Can't believe I let her fall asleep and didn't even get to go further than just a few kissed.

Man, I suck!

I was so taken by her kisses that I didn't even try to do anything else. I just fell like it would have been wrong to push her. Especially after her reaction to me stripping her. Last thing I wanted her to feel was that I would use her... even if I was dying to explore more of her... Oh well... we would have more occasions anyway.

When I checked my phone, the first thing I saw was a text from her.

'Thank you for last night. I let you sleep'

Nothing much but just enough to put a smile on face.

Did it make her my girlfriend? I couldn't care less about the label. I didn't even know if it was the right definition for her position in my life.
I just liked her. I liked her smile. I liked her laugh. I liked when she was around. And more than anything, I liked touching her.

Now, I was never the cuddly type. And she definitely was. But it didn't bother me if it was her. Kinda hard to explain. I just didn't mind holding her or holding her hand.

Where this all thing will lead? I had no idea... All I knew was that I didn't want to let her go. Not so soon. It was not like what Mike thought. I didn't know much about love, but I knew it was not it. Never fell in love before and doubted that I would... Ever.

I was just attracted to her. Like... I needed her. I was having fun with her and that was all what mattered.

I took a shower and got ready for my morning classes.

After school, I went to visit Mike and the boys and spent a few hours there. Just a regular day.

But, for once, I felt like I had a reason to go home. A good one. Yeah... I wanted to see her.

While talking and drinking with the guys, I pulled my phone out of my jeans pocket and texted her.

"Can I come over later?"

Five minutes later she texted me back.

"Whenever you want. I'm home"

That was all I needed to suddenly feel in a rush to go back. I left Mike's place and just hurried back to the residence.

In front of her door, I took a deep breath before knocking. Shit, that was weird. It was the first time I actually felt nervous to go to a girl's place.

She opened a few seconds later with a shy smile. Damn she was cute in her white shorts and black tank top. Her hair was tied in a bun on the top of her head and her cheeks were pink. Didn't know that girl could blush that often.

She let me in and I didn't wait much longer after she closed the door to be all over her. I couldn't stop kissing her and she didn't seem to want me to stop anyway.

I carried her to the bed where I laid her down and kissed her again. Not just her lips but also her sweet scented neck. My hands on her waist soon found their way under her tank top and were slowly crawling to her breasts, caressing them through her bra. I wanted her from the moment she opened the door and there was no way I'd let her fall asleep this time.
