Hearts Of Glass💔🥀 [completed]

54: Post-Graduation

Carrie Underwood- Heartbeat

"I love it when we're at a party in a down-town crowd
Oh but I can hear you call me baby with the music up loud
Red wine, good times, no I don't mind being with everyone else
And then there's night life tonight that I, I want you to myself

And tonight I wanna drive so far we'll only find static on the radio
And we can't see those city lights and I love the way you look in a firefly glow
Saying everything without making a sound,
A cricket choir in the background, underneath a harvest moon
Standing on your shoes in my bare feet, dancing to the rhythm of your heartbeat
Oh woah, and we're dancing to the rhythm of your heartbeat

I wanna feel it like a kick drum, beating faster in your chest
I wanna feel you holding onto me and make me hold my breath
You pull me closer, my head on your shoulder, baby we won't beat the song
We'll make a fallen star wish, one more slow kiss, what are we waiting on?"

Portland Lights Hotel.

The tallest building in Portland. All the senior year students were there at this particular moment.

Everyone else was having the time of their lives. I was too but I felt like I'd spent so much time surrounded by all of them that this being the last time seeing most of them wasn't such a bad thought. It was time to move on, and grow older.

But I'd still refuse to grow older unless it's with Cade.

I gazed over the brightest city lights.

The cityscape was unapologetically urban. There were no trees or city planted blooms, just monoliths of concrete soaring out of the sidewalk in an exact grid pattern. At night it was beautiful in it's own way, so many lights. By day you relied on the sky to let you know that it wasn't a monochromatic world; just one in which the people were too busy for art. For over a generation progress had meant the teaching of specific skill sets to the children of the metropolis and art had been the first casualty, then dance, then music and television. In this city we only work and eat, there is no time to sweep fall leaves or plant spring flowers, hardly even enough to notice the blue above. With no more designers our clothing and cars can never change, there are five styles of everything in white through grey. You pick the best one for you and use it until it falls apart before returning it for a replacement. In this way our city outperforms those in the region. The air was chilly but fulfilling and very promising, that the night was indeed still young.

The city spread below Cade and I, and the world suddenly felt so wide and free that I wanted to jump.

"Hold onto me Cade."

He wrapped his arms around my waist. Like in Titanic. He let me be free and drift into my own imagination.

Lights glittered everywhere just like stars dropping to the earth, huge and small buildings collided in a mixture of shadow and geometry, tiny vehicles rushing along tangled lines of streets creating twisting threads of light - they all intertwined together in a magnificent mess of dream.
A breathtaking, marvellous, almost frightened dream that made me feel like some fake, unlucky living thing.

"What do you say we ditch this party and go to the car?" He asked.

"Anywhere away and alone with you."

...

A hand on my naked thigh interrupted my thoughts. Cade had his hand on my thigh and seemed to be stroking absentmindedly, trying to find comfort in the backseat of his car. I considered pushing his hand away but I thought better of it.

I pretended like I did not feel his palm on my legs and kept on looking out the window. His hand kept drawing in and finding it's way into what we under my little red dress.

I kept my eyes on him as he looked at my thighs in interest. Cade was still pretending like he did not know what he was doing, slid his palm underneath my dress and came very close to the soft parts.

When he noticed I did not pull away, he shifted a little closer so his hand can graze through my underwear.

"What If someone comes?" I asked.

His car made a small sound.

"Locked."

I kept my gaze out the car, still looking if there was anyone watching. He was shifting in his seat.

I adjusted the seat so I was lying down straight and he came to join me. He hiked up my dress.

He gently slid his finger inside. It was even better this time because it did not require too much manoeuvring. He slid his finger in and out of me until I began to quiver and came hard around him.

I tried not to make the sounds too loud since it was out in the open.

He stopped to grind against me so I felt him even deeper.

I was getting close to climax again and he seemed to be too. His thrust started getting faster and more urgent as we both breathed holding on to each other.

He got off me wordlessly and returned to the driver's seat. I readjusted my seat, went back to the passenger's seat.

"Let's go back inside and enjoy Blue."
