Dangerous feelings

Chapter 10

The next few weeks seemed to fly by as Emily and Alison lost themselves in one another however the entire time Alison found herself fighting an inner battle with her thoughts. She had wanted to ask Emily to move in with her from the morning they had woken up inside the tent but Alison had quickly shaken away the thoughts deeming it too soon to be making such a serious statement and commitment. She didn't want to scare Emily off especially when the brunette had so many issues when it came to relationships and opening up her heart.

Was it too soon though? Was there really a certain time that you had to wait before taking certain steps in a relationship? Emily was as fully committed to Alison as the blonde was to the brunette so did they really need to wait until society deemed it ok for them to take the next step. Alison found herself in a constant loop of questioning whenever her mind went back to the subject and was running out of ways to distract herself.

Losing herself in the brunette was Alison's favourite distraction technique and many a time she had found herself dragging her girlfriend to bed in an attempt to clear her mind of everything apart from Emily. However as soon their heated sessions were finished and they were led together trying to get their breathing and heartbeats back under control Alison found the words on the tip of her tongue once more. Emily had definitely started to notice something was on the blondes mind.

"What are you thinking about?" Emily had asked one evening as they led in bed tangled beneath the sheets.

"Nothing" Alison quickly replied completely failing at keeping her cool.

Emily knew she was lying the instant she opened her mouth, she could read Alison like a book. All it took was one look into those ocean blue eyes and Alison would find herself opening up to the brown eyed goddess without thought. And for that reason Alison made sure to keep her head in Emilys neck and not look directly at her.

"Babe... talk to me" Emily said with concern laced in her voice she tried to tilt the blondes head towards her but Alison just snuggled deeper into the brunettes neck.

"I'm just thinking about how perfect this all is. Me and you." Alison said as she drew small circles on the brunettes toned stomach, it wasn't totally a lie. She had in fact been thinking that but more so that it would be even better if they took the next step.

Emily pulled her in tighter, her arms wrapped around Alison in a way that made all the problems slip away. Her cast resting lightly on top of her girlfriends side, not wanting it to irritate Alison in anyway. The brunette decided she wouldn't push the blonde for answers, she knew that Alison would open up and let Emily in when she felt ready too and she knew how it felt when you were pushed to talk before you were ready to. She didn't want her girlfriend to have any reason to shut her out and close herself off so she decided to leave the subject for the time being.

It didn't take long after that for them both to fall into a deep sleep, tangled up in one another. The sheets barely covering their bodies as their skin stuck slightly to one another due to the heat between them. Alison always found herself having a good nights rest whenever she had Emily holding her tightly in her arms.

"Alison hurry up!" Emily yelled up the stairs which brought the blonde straight out of her thoughts.

"I'm coming. Patience is a virtue you know" Alison shouted back but not irritated in the slightest. She knew they were running late and it was all down to her but she had to look her best whenever she left the house with her girlfriend.

Alison was just putting the finishing touches to her hair and make up when her mind had drifted off to thoughts about her girlfriend. They were heading out for the evening to enjoy dinner with their friends and Alison was now a fully fledged member of the group. She had unfortunately been running late from the moment she had woken up, having snoozed her alarm one too many a times. She felt like nothing was going to go right for her that day especially as she woke up in her bed cold and alone from the lack of her girlfriend beside her.
