The fire inside

Chapter 9

When I woke up I was still in Trent's arms but I was facing him rather than away from him. He was already awake and looking down at me.

"Good morning, Sleeping Beauty," he whispered and kissed my nose.

"Good morning," I giggled and snuggled into him.

He wrapped his arms around me and held me close to him. I smiled up at him then I kissed him deeply lacing my fingers into his hair. He grabbed my hair and kissed me hard.

I pressed myself to him and he groaned kissing me deeper. He pulled me on top of him and kissed me deeper. I squirm a bit and he moans into our kiss.

He pushed me off of him gently and sat up. "I'm sorry, Ellie. I have to go."

"Did I do something wrong?" I asked sadly.

"No, Ellie! Of course not!" He hugged me tightly. "I just think we should calm down a little." He laughed and kissed my forehead.

"Okay Trent." I hugged him and giggled.

He hugged me back and played with my hair. "If I don't get out of here before your mom comes in we're both dead." He laughed.

"You're right. Come see me later?" I looked up at him biting my lip.

"Of course I will, Ellie." He bent down and kissed me deeply lacing his fingers into my hair.

I kiss him back just as deeply grabbing his hair as well. He tugged my hair back breaking the kiss. I looked up at him and his face was flushed and his breathing raspy. Then I realized my breathing had quickened and my face was also flushed.

"I have to go, Ellie," he said getting up. "I promise I'll be back later."

"Okay, Trent," I said smiling happily. I got up and walked over to him hugging him.

He hugged me back and kissed the top of my head. "Later, beautiful,' he said then climbed out of my window.

Just then there was a knock on my bedroom door. "Come in," I shouted as I walked toward my bathroom.

My mother walked in and said "Good morning, Ella."

"Good morning, mom," I said happily.

"Someone woke up on the right side of the bed," she joked.

"I just had a really good night." I smiled to myself thinking of last night and sleeping in Trent's arms.

"Well I was coming to wake you up, but you beat me to it," she laughed a little then left the room.

I took a shower then yanked a brush through my wet tangled hair. I got dressed in jeans and a blue t shirt and some flip flops then went to start another day.
