IF I FALL - #Wattys2016

SO STUPID | LYA

He was sleeping soundly when I opened my eyes. His head was drown under the pillows but his body pressed against mine.

I slowly removed the pillow covering his face to take a peak at this handsome man sleeping in my bed. A large grin drew on my lips and I suddenly felt so lucky to be able to call this amazing person my boyfriend.

As much as I wanted to stay and finish that dreamy night beside him, the call of the hard reality hit when I remembered I had a test at 10 am that morning and I better not be late.

I got up against my will and quickly got ready to go to school.

During the whole subway ride, flashes of that night came back, making my heart race and my face blush. It was like a dream. A sweet dream that I kept seeing in flashback all morning long.

I tried to focus as much as I could during the test. And during class, while the professor was talking in words that sounded like gibberish to my ears, all I could think of was how good that night with Tom was.

I could tell he was experienced. I could tell he had been with many women before. The way he touched me, the way he moved, the way he seemed in control all along while I just abandoned myself to him.

I was scared to death. I was nervous as hell but I just didn't want to push him away anymore. I had no reason to. I decided that I would just let myself go and be myself and stop imposing myself some limits. I was in love with him, more and more everyday and I was not scared of my feelings anymore.

When I went on lunch, I left Chloe go to the cafeteria while I preferred to stay in the classroom to call him. I would have wanted to text him earlier but didn't have a minute to.

"What's up with you leaving like a thief?" He said when he picked up.

"You were sleeping. I didn't want to wake you up" I smiled at the sound of his voice.

"You could at least have sent a text or something"

"Could it be that you thought that I would disappear after?"

"Ha-ha! You funny girl"

I laughed.

"Wish you could have stayed today, that's it"

My heart melted when he said that.

"Yeah... Me too. But I had a test this morning, so..."

"How did it go?"

"I don't know... I was not focused at all"

"Mmm... Your head was full of me, uh?"

"Yeah..."

"Wow... You better hurry to get home so we can finish what we started"

"I won't get out before 6 though"

"I guess I can wait till then"

"Don't you have a class in the afternoon?"

"Yeah... But i figured I could skip it. And I thought that maybe you could do the same?"

"Errrr... Are you asking me to skip the whole afternoon?"

"I'm not asking you to... I just want to see how motivated you are to spend a whole afternoon in bed with your boyfriend... So what will it be?"

I thought about it for a minute. The idea was really tempting. A whole afternoon and night with him and being able to replay again and again last night's scenario sounded like the best plan... But... On the other side, I was already behind with my studies and didn't really need to miss another class... Hard choice...
