Chapter 7
Carter's POV
My phone buzzed on my desk, I'd woken up a few minutes ago to find Ben making the exact same flower crown while I laid cradled in his arms. We were still in the same position.
He reached over and handed me my phone, and set the unfinished crown on the desk.
I clicked the button, to see it was a text from Ayden.
Ben looked at my phone, and I looked at him.
I didn't really like Ayden as much as I think I did... I think I was just with him because he's a close friend, and he came a long way just to be with me.
I shook my head and turned my phone off.
Ben showed a big, toothy smile and put my phone back on the desk.
I grinned and laid my head over his heart, "I wish we could stay like this forever.."
"We could." He said quietly.
"Really?" I tilted my head up to look at his deep red eyes that seemed to hold happiness.
He nodded his head, and returned my glance,"We could.. and will."
A smile formed across my lips, as I felt his warm and soft lips locked onto mine.
It felt so.. different. So different then Ayden's kisses. Ben's were full of passion, happiness, sweetness, and promises.
I eventually kissed back, and melted into his arms, my cheeks flushed.
He moved and gently pushed me onto the bed, and laid on top of me, throughout the process our lips never broke apart.
When he finally pulled away, which was a long time, I was panting a little.
"Do I take your breath away?" he smirked at me, causing me to giggle and nod my head in response.
"So, who's better at kissing?" he asked.
"You are.." I replied, feeling his warm breath touch my lips.
He smiled at me, I found his smile extremely attractive.
I tangled my fingers in his hair, oh, how I loved the feeling of his dirty blonde hair that peeked out if his hat. My fingers caused his hat to fall on the bed next to me.
He planted a small kiss on my nose, when I realised how delicate, gentle, and soft his kisses are.. it's like his skin was not meant to touch mine. The skin of the dead should make no contact with the skin of the living. But if that's the rule, we've already broken it.
He moved his hat onto my head,"It suits you, don't you think?"
"I can't see it.." I giggled.
He grabbed my hands and stood me up stood with me. He walked me to the mirror and pointed,"You look cute.."
A hint of pink was visible on my cheeks.
I noticed his teeth were fairly sharp, as I rubbed his arm. "You make me happy.." he murmured as he kissed my hair.
"You make happy, too." I smiled.
"You're my princess. Mine, and only mine. No one else can have you, you are mine, and I am yours. I am your knight.." his soft voice cooed. I finally realised how protective he is. He must be afraid to loose me.
I looked up at him, to find him looking at me. We both surprisingly jumped and I jumped in his arms as the power cut off.
He held me bridal style, and walked to the window. I felt him cringe as a light rain formed, and the wind blew loudly. The light rain quickly changed to a strong pounding rain that seemed to fall in golfball sized drops onto the roof.
He whimpered and set me on the bed, pulled Link up next to me, wrapped us both safely in blankets. Walking around the room he mumbled word I couldn't hear, but I heard the words, "drown", "safe", "hurt", and "both".
I gave him a look of sadness at how timid he was around water.. he was really scared of it. Glancing past me and out the window he searched the room for a light.
I watched him and Link did too, she seemed just as worried. Then he stopped and looked t his hands, "I'll make light." he announced.
