Ecie & Esme II: Another Day Like This

Six

Ecie was sat in her car crying.

Someone rapped their knuckles on the window and she jumped wiping her face quickly.

'Ecie?'

Ecie wound down her window and started her engine. 'Yes Langley?'

'You're crying, are you okay? What happened?'

'I'll see you tomorrow,' she said driving out of her parking space and away from school.

'Can you see what you've done to me?' Ecie asked.

'They don't look that bad,' Ellis replied as he gave Ecie a full back massage. 'It just looks like you fell during a kick-boxing class or something.'

'You're lucky I do so much stuff,' Ecie said rubbing her chin against her folded arms. 'Otherwise people would start asking questions.'

Ellis shrugged. 'How about you tell them what a complete and utter brute your boyfriend is? Or better yet, tell them that I'm jealous and so psycho.'

Ecie sat up and turned round so that she was facing Ellis, and wrapped her thin arms around his neck. She wrapped her legs around him then kissed him on the lips.

Ellis kissed her back and carried her to his bed.

'Lucky for you my top was already off,' Ecie giggled as he lay her down gently on the sheets. He kissed her lips, her chin, her neck and then worked his way down til he came to her skirt.

'What do we do with this?'

Ecie giggled sitting forward and pulling Ellis back down on top of her. She pulled at his pants and kissed him.

As he came, Ecie looked into his myrtle green eyes and kept her arms wrapped round his neck.

'Ellis,' Ecie said as they lay in bed together. 'We'll need to talk.'

'You're finally going to dump me?'

'Unfortunately not,' Ecie said kissing his arm. 'Not today.'

'So what do we need to talk about?'

'It's senior year,' she said. 'Senior year is big and stuff happens, like events and things.'

'So what do we need to talk about?' Ellis said. 'I'm not a senior. I don't care.'

'But you will care,' Ecie said looking up at him. 'You know you will and so do I.'

'Well what do you want me to say?' Ellis asked sitting up. He kissed her shoulders. 'What should I say?' he asked between kisses. He ran his hands over her body.

'Well,' Ecie said as her body shivered with goose bumps. 'I don't know...'

'Right,' Ellis said looking at her for a moment before continuing to kiss her. He kissed her neck and her lips. 'I see we'll have a very interesting conversation ahead of us.'

'Ellis,' Ecie trembled as his hands ran down her body and his fingers found themselves deep under the sheets. 'Ellis...'

'Yeah?' he asked casually between kisses. He kissed the end of her jaw and behind her ear. 'What?' he moved his other hand behind her hand and mussed her hair before kissing her lips again.

'I... you're kind of,' she groaned a little and her whole body quivered and she took a deep breath and closed her eyes. 'Ellis...'

Ellis looked at Ecie and stopped kissing her. He started to pull his fingers away.

'Don't,' Ecie said. He looked at her. 'Just don't. Leave it.'

Ellis looked at Ecie again and pulled his hand out. 'You said we needed to talk about senior year,' he said stroking the back of her head. 'I don't want you to be distracted...'

'Your other... hand,' she squealed. 'Oh my god Ellis,' she shuddered. 'Ellis.'

Ellis laughed as he pulled both hands out from under the sheets. 'I'm sorry.'

'You don't just...' Ecie shook herself then relaxed. 'You don't just do that right in the middle of... what's so funny?'

'Your face,' Ellis laughed. 'Your expressions are priceless.' He kissed her on the lips.

'You like them now?' she said pushing him away playfully.

'Not quite,' he replied. He laughed then cleared his throat then his hands disappeared under the sheets again. 'You were saying?'
