A Killer Loves Me

Chapter Eight

(Scarlett's POV)

After I leave Abbi's house I head back home. When I get there I find my mom sitting on the kitchen floor crying her eyes out.

Maggie was more like a sister to me than a cousin. When I was 4 and she was 2 her mom died in a car crash, so she came to live with us. I've grown up with her, and I'll be destroyed if I lose her. And my mom basically saw her as her own daughter, so right now she feels like she's losing her baby girl.

I run over and haul her off the ground. She clings to my shoulder and sobs really loudly. I bring her to her bedroom and tuck her into her bed.

I go upstairs to my room and try to fall asleep. After 2 hours and still no luck I start to feel lonely and scared.

So I get up, throw on some sweats and a t-shirt, and run over to Seth's house that is only a block away.

When I get there I tap on his window. He opens up and sleepily looks at me.

"Scarlett? What are you doing here? It's 1 am and it's a school night." He says. "I'm scared and feel lonely. Can I just come in?" I plead. "Yeah of course." He says.

He helps me climb through the window, then I take off my shoes. I go over and sit on the bed next to him and that's when I realize he's only wearing skin tight boxers, spongebob boxers at that. I look away and my cheeks heat up in embarrassment.

"What happened?" Seth asks. That's when I remember I hadn't told Seth about Maggie yet. So I tell him the whole story and he moves to wipe away tears that fall down my cheeks.

"Come here." He says as he opens his arms so I go over and he wraps his arms around me. I cry into his shoulder for about 10 minutes then I pull away.

"I'm sorry. I'm probably annoying you, coming here in the middle of the night and just crying." I say as I look away from him. "You could never annoy me." He says as he  tilts my chin to look at him.

He leans over and lightly kisses me on the lips. "I love you." He says. "You have no idea how long I've been waiting for you to say those 3 words. Because I love you Seth." I tell him.

I lean over and kiss him again. This time though it's has more hunger and passion behind it. My hands rest on his chest, while his go to my neck deepening the kiss.

All I can think about is him. How his lips feel perfect against mine. How his body feels. And how I love him.

He licks my bottom lip asking for entrance which I immediately give him, then his tongue enters my mouth. His hands tug on the hem of my shirt so I lift my arms and he pulls it off.

My hands find their way to his back and I rake my nails down it, causing him to let out a low husky moan. His find their way to my bra strap and he takes it off. As his hands feel their way around my chest I let out moan after moan into his mouth.

The next thing I know we're laying naked in bed, breathing heavy, and our bodies are covered in sweat. "That was..." I start to say. "Our best yet." Seth finishes. "Definitely." I breath agree as I breath heavily.

We lay there for about another 10 minutes. Then Seth speaks up. "We should probably get to sleep." He says. "Yeah probably." I say.

So I cuddle up to Seth's chest as he wraps his arms around me. As I fall into a deep sleep I inhale Seth's scent, which makes me smile and makes me never wanna leave his arms.
