Chapter 13

Alex Gaskarth's POV:

As my eyelids slowly lifted up, the heaviness on them began leaving. The faint taste of red wine and morning breath lingered on my tongue. I lethargically tried to bring my other arm around my torso to save heat, but then realized it was around Lisa's waist, who faced away from me, still with her back cuddled against my chest. I pulled her even closer to me, her hair tickling my chin. I kept one leg hooked between hers under the warm blankets, rubbing my foot against the side of her shin and burying my face in the back of her neck. In her half-asleep state, she molded her body completely against mine. Lisa ran her small and nimble fingers over my knuckles before turning her head and upper torso to face me, pressing her soft lips to mine gently. I kissed her back, tasting the hint of wine still on her breath as her warm lips moved in sync with mine. As she turned completely to face my body, I took the opportunity to roll on top of her and allowed her cool fingers to trail down my bare chest. I closed the narrow gap between our bodies to lie almost completely on her, running my hands over her hips and torso, only covered by one of my t-shirts. I bit gently on her earlobe, pulling softly on the soft skin. My lips continued moving down until I reached her collarbone, then lifted my hands higher to remove the long white shirt from her perfectly curved body. I kissed and sucked on the skin just above her collarbone, worrying it between my teeth lightly as she let out a small sigh and moved her hands up my back. 

There was a violent sneeze from Adelpha's room down the hall before a quiet sound of shifting in the bed, then more silence. I continued on the small purple and pink mark on Lisa's neck, ignoring the sound as I moved lower down her body. "Babe," Lisa said quietly. "Lex, we can't, Adelpha, ah-" she made a small whimper as I sucked on her pale hipbone from under the blankets. "Adelpha will- will hear us." She made a small gasp and covered her mouth with her fingers. 

I hummed. "Not if we're quiet," I said in a low voice. I began slowly running my tongue back up her stomach and over her slowly rising and falling chest, grinding my entire body against hers slowly. My right hand slowly trailed down under the V below her stomach, teasing her. 

"Alex," she whined. "Not noowww." I pouted at her, looking down into her grey eyes, glittering even in the dark room, only lighted by the morning sunlight seeping through the curtains. She reached her head up and kissed my bottom lip. She smiled at me. "Come on, I'm hungry. Let's go make breakfast."

I pouted childishly again. "Fine," I whispered with a small smile. I rolled off of her, stepping into the dark blue sweatpants on the ground and brushing my hair from my face with my hand. I looked over at the other side of the bed to see Lisa pulling my white t-shirt over her head again. I watched as her perfectly toned legs slid into her black leggings, and the soft material was pulled over her beautifully curved butt. 

"Alex, honey, you're about to drool." She walked over and kissed my cheek before waiting by the door.

"No, I wasn't," I sassed childishly as I followed her downstairs. I kept following behind her until we reached the kitchen, deciding on what to make and beginning to cook eggs. I looked up the exact recipe for a French-style omelette, something Adelpha had made before but I could never seem to recreate. 

"Fuck!" I flicked my wrist away as a piece of egg popped up and burned my hand. 

"Alex, what are you doing? You've cooked eggs before," Lisa giggled at my struggles. 

"Something I'm trying to do that I found on fucking Google that I saw Adelpha do once. I don't know how you're supposed to whisk eggs in a hot pan while shaking the pan," I grumbled to myself.

"A lot of practice," A soft voice said from behind me. I turned to see Adelpha standing in the middle of the kitchen in a black tanktop and Batman boxer shorts. "It's 'cause you're doing it wrong."
