A Cup of Coffee

I followed closely behind Elizabeth as she made her way to our room. Her long hair cascaded down her back and I just wanted to run my hands through them, they look so soft. A part of me was happy that we got to be in the same room together, it's not as if we never slept on the same bed before. We did, but things are different now that we kissed and I'm worried I may overstep my boundaries if I can't overcome the yearning of wanting to just hold her in my arms.

Though she's an open book, she draws me in and I don't know what it is about her. All I know is that, I want to spend every minute with her and right now is perfect but at the same time, I don't want to hurt her. She's so amazing and so beautiful. Elizabeth seems so strong yet she's fragile.

She cries because I'm in pain and it scares me that I won't be able to let go when my two weeks is up. I can't possibly allow her to miss out on opportunities if I do decide to stay and keep doing whatever we are doing. I'm going back to New York and she's staying here. I'm not sure if she's going to accept the job in New York or follow what her parents' wishes are. She's lost herself.

"Here we are!" Her cheerful voice interrupted my train of thoughts. She smiled at me as she swiped the keycard on the slot which opened the front door of our room. The room was pretty spacious and in the middle of the room was a huge king sized bed. There was a couch at the side and a bathroom to the right and mind you the walls were just glass. So you can basicaly see anyone who was showering.

I turned to her and her green eyes pierced through mine. We started laughing as we figured out how to cover the glass in the bath.

"You want to wash up first?" I asked as she situated herself to the right side of the bed.

"No Ad, you've been driving all day. Go ahead first," she smiled as she laid out her things on the bed. I nodded and smiled at her. Grabbing my towel, I proceeded to head to the bathroom. There was small shampoo and shower gel bottles on the counter, they all smelled really fresh. I started stripping off my clothes and was about to take my boxers off when I heard knocking on the glass at the bath.

Elizabeth was tapping the glass from the room. She had a panicked look on her face, as she gestured to the curtains to cover the glass. I felt so embarrassed and shot her a smile before closing the curtains.

I quickly rinsed myself and lathered my body with the shower gel. I didn't want to take too long because I know Elizabeth was tired as well. She greeted me with a wide smile as I entered our room. She was sitting on the edge of the bed, watching a video on her phone. She beckoned me to sot besise her as we watched it together. It was one of the ads of the Poopourri spray. It was so hilarious and the sounds they made during the pooping session cracked me up.

Elizabeth was near tears as she held her phone. She clutched her stomach and nearly fell off the bed but I grabbed her arm, pulling her back. This caused us to laugh even harder. After laughing for past 10 minutes, she eventually got up and headed to the bathroom. She took her time and I could see her figure in the shower.

She was dancing yet there was no music. It was so sexy and so beautiful. I was captivated with how much beauty she has within and how happy she makes me. Love has an amazing way of creeping into your life.

She finished showering but I was already falling asleep. I couldn't fight the exhaustion I felt. All I remember was how warm it felt as she got into the covers with me. Through the night, we made our way to each other through the sheets and held each other.

A/N: I am terribly sorry for the late upload and actually nobody reads this. It's been almost a month. I haven't been in the best headspace and I wasn't motivated to write. In addition to that I had to read Chapters 1 to 27 to get to know my characters again.
