Something very light as of a feather moved over my quilt trying to feel my chest.

With squinting eyes I realised it was my gran.

" oh sorry dear it was not meant to wake you up " she withdrew her hands.

I smiled thinking how she used to wake me up for school ' she would take off my quilt and shout " Getup you lazy bum ".

" Accidents are good I get extra hours to sleep and no one to wake me up it feels like heaven " I said teasingly.

" Not a good idea " she groaned.

Emily hasn't come yet ? I asked taking off the quilt.

" Nope " when she finished Emily walked in
Charmingly.

Her dress was a rumple. " Straight from bed ? " I asked.

" Of course, you filled my mind when I woke up so I thought I'll have a look " She said as she helped to land on my feet.

" Oh I see " I said winking at her.

She raised her eyebrows skeptically.

" Okay I'll get breakfast " granny moved out.

After the breakfast was over, Emily went for changing her clothes. When she got back she made me stand and took off her hands suddenly making me gasp.

" What are you doing ? " i shouted.

" It's Practice time Jake - now or never " she asked looking straight through my eyes.

I will try ' I said as i made my first step.

" Cool you are good "

" I hope I'm "

" Ouch " I shouted as I tripped falling over Emily who was completely unprepared to catch me.

We Stumbled and tumbled becoming one , I felt her heartbeat against mine. Smell of her silky hair left me with burning churns of desire.

When My hands moved to embrace her she rolled aside quickly and got up lending me her hands.

" I m so sorry " she whispered.

" I didn't see you falling " her voice trembled.

" Not a big issue I m good "

As she lifted me up I felt her hands chilled up with tense after her tender body slid against mine for the first time ever after our childhood days.

Then I remembered her say " things changes as we grow up " Yes it is ' I said to myself.

Now I feel different with her every move and every touch she made unlike the old times.

It wasn't hard for me to guess that I was falling for her slowly yet happily.

" No more practice for now " she said after a very long pause.

" I'm ready Em we will do it one more time "

" Do what ? " she said collecting her hairs into a thick bundle.

" It felt good " I said.

" Really don't be stupid " Em shot back getting what I meant.

But I was surprised by her words.

She had always touched me with fire inside her soul when I used to hate her. I had felt her heat radiate through her lips each time
she kissed me on my cheeks.

And now when I need her close to me she disapproves of it.

" What are you up to? " she asked bluntly.

" Nothing "

She turned towards window with her eyes rambling restlessly to avoid mine.
