Whoever said "don't knock it until you've tried it" was probably a smartass who annoyed the hell out of everyone because of how right they were. I can't count how many times I've judged people who leave the comfort of their own beds to go and share someone else's bed just because they are in a relationship, why? Nothing beats the comfort of ones own bed, well that's what I thought until I found myself itching to clammer into Blues bed every weekend, or every night if I had my way. Forgive me all those I judged for wanting to sleep in the arms of the one you love and I say the one you love because it may seem too soon but I think I do love Blue otherwise why would I love her bed more than my own, logical right?
I've never liked sharing a bed with someone but then you sleep with someone you love few times and now its no longer as fun to sleep alone in your own small bed. Now you want to have their clammy skin rubbing all up on you, you want their breath ghosting over you neck, their arm wrapped around you. You want that warmth, you crave it almost every night.
I want to be in her bed so much. Every Friday I'm already packing a weekend bag, bouncing on my feet, anticipating, waiting and counting the minutes until Saturday when I get to see Blue again, sleep in her arms again. We've managed to sneak in a few nights in the course of week whenever she can sleep over at mine but those are usually not as fun, a). Because it has to be the nights I know Shae is out, b). Because she has to leave very early in the morning, and c). Because its all sneaky which makes me hate myself for making her sneak around like that. She's supposed to be out and proud and not sneaking around so her girlfriends' friends don't find out about them.
Today is another Saturday and I'm already at Blues. It's still morning so that means I skipped class (been doing a lot of that lately), the joys of new love. Given a choice between love and class, you can imagine what I chose. I couldn't wait until midday when she usually picks me up so I just got a taxi to her place.
"Riley? What are you doing here?" A groggy Blue asks when she opens the door wearing black boxer shorts and a vest. I can tell I just woke her up and I'm kind of sorry I did but I really wanted be here.
"Good to see you too babe, now let me in. It's freezing out here," I kiss her on the cheek and push my way in past her.
"Fuck, what time is it?" She closes the door shutting the cold outside. I begin to disrobe because I came purposely to get into bed with her plus I'm fucking freezing. The morning cold wasn't forgiving. She stops rubbing her eyes for a moment to look at me as I peel my clothes off.
"I don't know, six_ish and to answer your first question, I thought I could slip into bed with you?" I look at her sheepishly because it just occurred to me that 6:00am is too early to show up at someone's door step. She doesn't seem bothered however. She moves into my space, placing her hands on my hips and because she's just there and I've kind of missed her, I nuzzle into her neck like a puppy trying to get her scent all over me.
"Did you miss me that much?" She's teasing me, her hands gently smoothing over my hip bones.
"You don't know how much," I let out a breathy reply nuzzling deeper into her neck, my arms wrapped tightly around her.
"Then come on, let's go to bed," she takes my hand and leads me to bed. We immediately cuddle in, her behind me with her arm tightly wound around my body. "Mmh, now I think I can forgive you for waking me up at who-the-fuck-is-that hour," she says, cuddling in closer and I chuckle.
"I'm sorry about that."
"Don't worry about that. So, aren't you supposed to be somewhere acquiring knowledge, getting an education?"
"Its just one day," I reply. "AndIreally neededtobeheld" I mumble into the pillow. Openly expressing my feelings still isn't very easy for me.
"What's that?" She asks.
"Just needed to be held," I repeat.
She plants a kiss at the top of my spine."You came to the right place. Now let's sleep." And I find myself following that order.
