9. Being with Him ❤

He was there within seconds. And soon as I opened the door He hugged me tight and I couldn't keep the tears from falling. He let me go to close the door and told me to sit down on the couch. He walked into the kitchen and came back with a glass of water which he handed to me. I tentative sip and placed the glass down in the small coffee table covered with rings from various cups, mugs and glasses.

"Babe, please talk to me. What happened today?"
"I'm sorry bae, I don't really wanna talk about. I just need you to hold me."
"Okay babe, but just know that I'm here if you wanna talk."
That was the last words spoken before he opened his arms as if waiting for me to climb into them. That's just what I did without hesitation. We stayed like that, tangled up with each other on the couch for I don't know how long until I feel asleep.

I was awoken by the smell of food and that's one of the reasons I consider worth waking up for. The other being the need to use the bathroom. I look down to see my legs covered with my favourite purple blanket.
He's so sweet.
I hear footsteps padding across the wooden floor and quickly close my eyes pretending to still be in a deep sleep.

I have the feeling that He knows I'm awake. Sometimes I don't know how he does it but he knows exactly how I'm feeling, it's as if our hearts are somehow connected. It's really awesome but also not that awesome at the same time. It's awesome that he can tell exactly how I feel without me having to tell him but that also means I can't lie or hide anything from him.

"Baby I know you're awake, you know you can't hide anything from me."
Damnit. It thought that just maybe this one time I would be lucky. Although upon hearing His voice right next to my ear, I can't stop a smile from spreading across my face. I open my eyes to his brown ones looking right back at me and His lips curve up into a smile mirroring mine. He leans in close to kiss me and I don't stop him because when I'm with him, he makes me forget about all my problems and responsibilities like we're living in our own little bubble.

After our sharing of saliva, He said,
"I have some food for you babe."
I smiled and asked,"How long was I out?"
"Only a couple of hours babe, it's 6pm now and I know that you're hungry."
Laughing I replied,"You know me too well bae. So what are we eating tonight?"
"I got some pizza for us."
"Yaaaassss thanks so much bae," I said hugging him. We got our steaming pizza from the kitchen and decided to watch a movie to take my mind off what happened earlier today. He chose the movie this time, said he felt like watching a romance, so he chose The Space Between Us. I didn't mind because I heard it was a really good movie.

Once we finished our deliciously awesome pizza, he put his arm around my neck and I snuggled against his side, looking up at him through my eyelashes.
How did I deserve someone so amazing to be apart of my life.
He looks down at me and smiles and I lift my head to meet his lips. I smile against his lips and start laughing for some unknown reason.

"What? Why you laughing babe?" He asks with little frown lines forming on his forehead.
"Your lips taste like pizza bae," I say with a small school girl giggle.
He starts laughing and I can't decide if he's laughing at me or with me. Either way the sound of his laugh makes me smile and love Him just that little bit more.
He then kisses me on the forehead and I smile up at him, eyes filled with adoration.
"Babe can we please just watch the movie, it's starting to get interesting," he asks looking back and forth between me at the TV.
"Okay my love," I reply snuggling back against his side.

As the credits started scrolling down the screen he agrees to stay the night here with me and we decide to get ready for bed. I needed to freshen up so I headed for the shower while he cleared away the paper plates and now empty pizza box.
What really surprised me was when he decided to join me. I was just doing my thing in the shower you know getting all clean and everything when I heard the door close.
"Bae?"
"Is that you?"
No answer.

I can't look out the shower door because the glass is all misted up from the steam evaporating from the warm running water I hear the sounds of someone getting undressed and I start to freak out just a little but I kept quiet trying to listen for what might happen next. I see their shadow moving towards the glass and it's like everything happens in slow motion. They reach out a hand to open the door and I almost scream.

But then I begin to think logically that it can only be one person.
Him.
My back facing the door, I could tell it was Him by his scent of something indescribable that drove me insane. I didn't turn around, I couldn't but I know I'm safe when he's with me.

He traced patterns on my back with his finger. I could feel the soft texture of his hand on my skin. I could feel the heat radiating off his body adding to the already hot atmosphere in the shower. His breath brushed my neck making me shiver, letting me know just how close he was. He takes the soap form my hand and begins his assault. His hands start out on my shoulders and slowly slide down my back covering it in soap suds - it was like he was memorising every mark and curve on my back - his hands paused at my waist almost asking me for permission to go further. My heart was beating so fast like it was in some internal race and it was as if it would suddenly pound right out of my chest. Ignoring my racing heart, I gave a slight nod of my head.
