Unexpected Love

Chapter 7

I rolled over and felt a body against mine. I opened my eyes and saw Caleb asleep. I smiled to myself. He looked like a baby.
A big baby.
I traced his abs with my finger and went up to his face. I traced his nose and his eyebrows and then his scars from the accident.
He shifted and brought my hand down to kiss it.
" I'm sorry. Did I wake you?" I asked.
" No, it's alright." he said.
I reached over him and grabbed my cell phone. Nothing new so I put it back down and turned back to him.
" Do you mind ignoring everything I said before. I sounded all sappy and was just in my feelings." he said.
I rolled my eyes and smiled.
" I found it rather sweet but fine" I said tapping his nose.
Earlier I had held him for about an hour as he cried. It was weird at first but then it felt normal. He eventually cried himself to sleep like a newborn and I laid him down softly and lied next to him, pulling the blankets over us. I watched him for a while.
Taking in everything that had happened then fell asleep.
He wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me closer. He grinned and I smiled.
" What do you want to do?" He asked.
I wrapped my arms around his neck and looked into his eyes.
" Since I told you everything about me, I want you to tell me everything about you."
He groaned.
" I don't have an exciting life" he simply said.
" I don't care"
He looked at me with a raised eyebrow.
" I'm starting to realize your a stubborn child." he said.
" Child?"
He looked at me and smirked.
" Yeah. Child. You are younger than me so I am your elder. I'm wiser than you and more mature"
" I'm mature!" I said like a four year old.
He chuckled.
" Point proven"
" How do you know I'm younger than you anyways?" I asked.
" How old are you?"
" 17"
" Hah. I'm 18."
" Your only a year older than me!" I exclaimed.
I unwrapped my arms from around him and folded my arms across my chest.
I know I was being childish but I hated being looked down upon.
" Awe baby I'm sorry. I'm just messing with you" he said, but in his eyes I could see he wasnt the least bit sorry.
" Don't say your sorry when you don't mean it" I frowned.
He smiled.
" Imma have to turn that frown upside down sweetheart." he said.
I looked at him.
" Not possible. I choose to smile when I please" I said challengingly.
" You smile when I want you to smile." he said with a twinkle in his eyes.
" And how could you ever possibly do that?" I asked.
" By doing this"
He suddenly started tickling me which caused me to have a laughing fit.
I started thrashing and I could hear him laugh too.
" Say your the king" he said.
I shook my head no and he climbed on top of me, tickling me even more.
" Ca- Cal- Caleb stop i-it" I stuttered through my laughter.
" Say it" he said.
" Your the king!" I managed to choke out.
" Say Caleb is smart and wiser than Kenya" he said.
" Your pushing it" I warned him and he started tickling me again.
" Ok fine! Caleb is smart and wiser than Kenya" I exclaimed.
He stopped tickling me.
" Now was that so hard" he asked.
" Yes" I mumbled.
He chuckled and gave me a quick peck on the lips before getting up.
I was disappointed again for the kiss not being longer.
" I love it when your bottom lip sticks out. I'll please you one day. I promise" he winked at me.
I felt my face flush and he laughed.
" Come on." he smiled and I got up, quickly fixing my dress, which had risen during the tickling attack.
He began walking downstairs and he went to the kitchen while I sat with his mom in the living room. She looked away from the news that was displayed on the tv and put it on mute.
" You ok?" She asked.
" Yes. Why?" I asked curiously.
" A couple hours ago I heard Caleb yelling. I didn't want to interrupt" she said.
I blushed.
" Yeah. He just was telling me about the crash. I can't remember anything from that day." I said simply.
No need to add in all the mushy stuff.
She looked at me with big eyes.
" Your the girl that was in the hospital. He stayed there all the nights you were there." she said.
I looked at her dumbstruck.
" Yeah that's me." I said.
" I was wondering where that scar came from on your thigh. I thought you were just another girl he brought over and fu-" she stopped herself short and blushed.
I looked at her and blushed.
So he had sex with a lot of girls even when his parents were home?
" Don't stress it. I don't care" I said even though I was jealous of the other girls.
How come he could have sex with other girls and not me?
What's wrong with me?
" So the crash. You don't remember it?" she said changing subjects.
" No. I mean I try but I just can't bring myself to remember.
She smiled softly and just then I heard Caleb and Frank coming in laughing at some joke.
Frank sat down next to his wife and Caleb sat down next to me. He flipped the channels then settled on a movie. I put my head on his lap and curled up. He twirled my hair around his finger as he watched the movie but all I could do was look at him.
He looked at me and smiled. He bent down and kissed me slowly then went back to watching the movie.
I turned to the screen and watched the movie.

" Mom. Can I please spend the night at Caleb's?" I asked.
It was getting late and I didn't want to go back home so I called to ask if I could stay.
" You most certainly can not spend the night over some boys house!" she exclaimed.
I could hear Caleb trying not to laugh so I threw him a glare but he just grinned.
" Mooom. We aren't going to do anything. I promise." I groaned embarrassed.
" Let me talk to his mom or dad then. Just so they can keep an eye on you two. And I want to officially meet him." She said.
" I'm 17. Do you really have to? And you do know Caleb" I was getting more red by the second and Caleb was over there enjoying himself a silent good laugh.
" I know him as the guy that put my daughter into the hospital and carelessly crashed into Sarah's car. And yes. Put them on the phone or bring your ass home now!" I could tell she was getting more irritated so I left the room and went to the master suite knocking softly.
I heard Jasmine say come in so I explained everything to her and she smiled.
She took the phone from me and they talked. She laughed lightly a couple times then handed the phone back to me.
I mouthed thank you and went back to Caleb's room.
" Better?" I asked now irritated.
" Better. She seems so nice. I would love to meet her one day. Now I feel a lot better. You can stay." she said.
" Thanks mom."
" Love you." she said.
" Love you too. Goodnight."
I hung up and tossed my phone to the ground.
" What a pain" I said, plopping down onto his bed.
Caleb got up and turned the radio on but put it to low volume. He came over to me and started massaging my shoulders.
I lied there with my head in the pillow.
" Really. She had to talk to my mom" he said.
I could tell he was trying so hard not to laugh.
" Shut up" I said into the pillow.
He went down to my back and can I say he did and amazing job.
" I find it cute. At least I know your parents care about what you do and you aren't easy" he said softly.
He deepened the massage and I groaned in pleasure.
" A little higher. And I'm not the easy type. Trust me." I said.
He went higher to the perfect spot and I smiled into the pillow.
" I know. That's why I think I'm so attracted to you." he said.
He moved my hair to the side and started kissing my neck.
" Very attracted to you." he mumbled into my neck.
I flipped over and he continued kissing my neck and I wrapped my arms around his neck, pulling him closer to me, if that was even possible.
He went down to my chest and lifted my dress so he could kiss my stomach.
My back arched slightly as a faint moan escaped my lips.
He smiled against my stomach then kissed it two more times before pulling my dress back down and looking at me with a stupid grin on his face.
" Stop teasing me" I groaned.
" I like hearing you moan. It's a huge turn on." he winked at me.
I looked down to see that his "friend" was sticking out and he didn't even try to hide it.
I knew I felt something hard poking me.
" You obviously want me. I want you. Just have me" I whispered hoarsely.
He kissed my forehead then my ear.
" I want to wait baby" he whispered in my ear.
I groaned and he pulled away laughing.
He got up and went to his chest drawers and pulled out a shirt and threw it at me.
I caught it and gave him a glare.
" Don't tease me. It's not fair" I mumbled.
He closed his bedroom door and he took off his shirt then his pants. He was still hard and I couldn't help but take in his glorious body. All the muscles he had on his chest and arms.
" Earth to Kenya" he smirked at me.
I blushed and threw a pillow at him.
" Shut up" I mumbled.
He put on a pair of shorts then crawled into bed.
I looked at his shirt and down at myself.
He rolled his eyes but closed them and I quickly took off my dress and put on the shirt, which was extra baggy and went down to my knees, since he was so tall.
" You can open"
He opened his eyes I crawled in next to him and used his chest as my pillow.
He brushed my hair away from my face and kissed the top of my head.
" Caleb" I said.
" Yes?"
" Can I ask you something?"
" Shoot"
"How come you won't have sex with me? Is there something wrong with me?" I asked.
" There is nothing wrong with you. You are perfect." he said.
" Your mom said you have had sex with lots of girls here. Why not me?" I asked.
I know I sounded thirsty but I couldn't understand why he kept pushing me away.
" She said that?"
" Something like it"
He groaned and hesitated before he answered.
" You're precious to me. And I know you aren't ready. I don't want you to feel as if you have to do it. Plus, the longer we wait the better it will be."
Without looking up I could tell he was grinning when he said the last part.
I smiled.
" When?"
" You'll know. I'll know. The moment will come. Just not yet." he said simply.
I stayed silent for a while.
" Kenya."
" Yeah"
" I'm happy you could spend the night." he said softly into my ear.
I smiled and closed my eyes.
" I'm happy too."
" Goodnight"
" Goodnight" I said back.
