We stayed locked in our silent, wet embrace. Her one hand lay on my chest, gently gripping my shirt to keep me where I was. Her hand felt small against my chest, yet warm and comforting, letting me relax underneath her touch. She pulled back, setting the bud in the ash tray, avoiding my gaze as she let her hand drop into her lap. I couldn't help but lick my lips, tasting her. I closed my eyes as she brushed her thumb back and forth over my chest. "I should probably go now...” I whispered, waiting desperately for her reply
"No!" She cried out, her eyes filling with panic. "You can't!"
"I have nowhere else to go" I whispered, lowering my eyes, to ashamed to meet her startled gaze
"You...you can stay here...with me” She whispered back, her small, gentle hand, cupping my cheek, slowly raising my head so that our gazes meet. Her baby blue eyes, sparkling like little sapphires. "Please, don't leave me here alone"
"I...I won't" I mumbled as I lost myself in her eyes, her incredible delicant eyes. I couldn't pull my eyes away from her's. I was helpless under her gaze. She smiled, and at that moment I would have stopped the Earth from spinning if she asked.
She blushed under my scrutiny, sliding her gaze away from mine, clearly embarrassed that I was watching her so closely. “You can sleep in my bed, if you‘d like.” She whispered quietly, still avoiding my gaze.
I smiled, unable to keep my dirty mind at bay. "But where will you sleep, little Angel?"
Her cheeks turned a darker shade of red at my comment, her eyes flickering between mine and the floor. "I...I can take the couch. I'll be alright"
I shook my head "No, you take the bed, I'll take the floor" She opened her mouth to speak again, undoubtedly about to protest my answer, but I placed the pad of my index fingers over her mouth. "Shh, help me up. This leg isn't doing me much good" She only nodded, and ducked under my arm once again, helping me to shuffle across the floor and up the stairs into her bed room. She tried moving me onto her bed, of course. "I said no"
"But...but...but" she began to whimper
"But what?"
"But your hhuuuurrrrttttttt!" She whined in her adorable little voice
I slowly shook my head, and sat down, leaning against the side of her bed. "Hard to believe a few hours ago, I was under your bed" I mumbled, turning and resting my head on the side of the bed, playing with the corner of the sheets
She let out a small gasp, her hands moving to her face to cover it. "That...That was you?" She whispered, clearly unnerved by the fact the stranger she just helped had invaded her home. I could only nod, feeling ashamed, the first time I had ever felt ashamed for committing a crime. She moved to sit beside me, laying her hand over mine.
"I don't hold it against you, in all honesty you intrigued me" She said, her cheeks again turning a rosy shade of red.
"Intrigue...well that’s new" I mumbled, beginning to blush a little myself.
I cleared my throat, breaking the awkward moment. "So...why here? Why this place?"
"Dad got tired of the gangs and crime back in my old place" She mumbled
I couldn't help but burst out laughing, nearly doubling over from the overwhelming irony of their move. "I'm sorry...I'm sorry but oh my god! That’s basically all there is here" I laughed
She narrowed her eyes at me, instantly flooding me with a feeling of guilt.
"Sorry" I whispered, bowing my head.
She simply shook her head and crawled up into her bed. "I'm trusting you"
I peaked over the side of her bed, curious to what she meant, but she was already asleep.
