Rule - Sweet Pea (1)

You make it extremely difficult

Warmth. That's the first thing Rule felt in her half sleeping state, snuggling closer to the smooth source. "Morning Angel," a husky voice murmurs in her ear, fingers dancing along Rules bare back as she lays on her stomach. Her eyes flutter open to look up at Sweet Pea, a sleepy grin on Rules lips as she traces shapes on his chest. "I could get used to this." Rule mumbles against his skin. A thin quilt was the only thing covering their bodies, Rule laying on her stomach and the blanket only covering her ass, Sweet Pea groin the only part covered. The only warmth in the room was each other, and that was enough for the both of them. "The you sleeping naked next to me part or staying up all night doing the horizontal mambo?" Sweet Pea teases, squeezing Rules butt. "Both, definitely both." Rule replies cheekily, kissing his lips and climbing out of bed, leaving the blanket on Sweet Pea and walking by naked. "You're making it extremely difficult to not get out of this bed and fuck you senseless in the shower." Sweet Pea cat called in a strained voice, Rule turning around to smirk at him with a hand on her voluptuous hips. "Then why are you still sitting there?"

She'd never seen a man move so fast in her life
.................................
By the time they'd finally gotten out, at least an hour later, the water had turned ice cold. Rule slid on a pair of black jeans and matching halter neck tank, pink converse and pink bomber jacket completing the look. "I can't stand pink." Rule mutters in the mirror, putting mousse in her hair to make it curly. "Then why are you wearing it?" Sweet Pea wonders cluelessly, a towel loosely draped around his hips. Biting her lip, Rules eyes wandered his body as she stood and walked over to him, placing her hands on his bare chest while Sweets wrapped his arms around her small frame. "Fashion my love," Rule teased, leaning on her tiptoes and placing a lingering kiss on Sweets lips, sucking his bottom lip into her mouth. With a sultry smirk, Rule yanked the towel from Sweet Peas waist and sat back down at her vanity, doing everything in her will power not to go back and take her clothes off.

After pulling on a pair of tight black boxers, Sweet Pea sat on the edge of the bed and watched Rule apply her makeup. "You're so beautiful." The words weren't meant originally to be said out loud, but Rule was eternally happy they were as she finished her makeup, standing from her seat and placing herself between Sweet Peas legs, hands playing with his damp hair. "I love you." Sweet Pea smiled cheekily at Rule and her words, bringing his hand up and bringing her head down to his lips. "I love you too Angel," in one swift move, Sweet Pea flips Rule onto the bed, attacking her hickey covered neck and chest. Her eyes widen when she catches long fingernail scratches on Sweets muscular back. Rule bursts out laughing, pointing at his back. Sweet pea jumps up and looks in the mirror, a satisfied smirk on his face. "I find it hot, just like the hickeys covering your neck." Rule made a noise of agreement, the doorbell ringing at that very moment. "Get dressed." Rule ordered, pecking his lips, although her tone said she'd rather him not put clothes on.

Rule threw the door open, coming face to face with a panicked Betty and Archie. "Woah, get inside." Rule yanks the two inside, looking outside to see if there was anyone following them. "What's going on?" Rule demands, her eyes checking them both over for injuries. Looking at each other, they spill anything and everything about the black hood and their involvement. "Alrighty then," Rule mutters, plopping down with her head in her hands. "What do you need me to do?" They look shocked that Rule would so easily volunteer her help. "We might need your help if he tells us to go somewhere again." Betty pleads, Rule nodding and glancing at Sweet Pea from the corner of her eye. Betty and Archie left a few minutes later, leaving Sweet Pea and Rule to themselves. 

"No way in hell," Sweet Peas sudden outraged growl shocks Rule, her head whiping to look at him. "You are not putting yourself in danger for them." He points at the door where the two teens had just exited from. "Wha- they're my friends Sweet Pea! You didn't exactly throw me over your shoulder and drive me home when we were fighting the bulldogs!" She shouts back, a full head shorter than Sweet Pea but just as angry. "That's because I was there with you and I knew the serpents wouldn't let anything happen to you! You're so selfish when it comes to things like this!" Sweet Pea throws his hands up in the air, stalking angrily to the fridge and yanking out two beers. "I can handle myself Sweet Pea!" Sweet Pea rushes up to Rule, the young girl flinching back. Her eyes slowly open when she realizes what she'd done, all traces of anger gone from Sweet Peas face and replaced with sadness. Slowly, he lifts his hand up and cups Rules face, placing a gentle kiss on her forehead. "I just worry that you'll get yourself hurt Radlee. It anything happened to you can you just think of how much that would hurt me? I know you think it's selfless, but to me it's selfish because you'd be leaving behind so many people that love you. Because I can't be with you if you keep doing stuff like this, cause if you died so would I." The words Sweet Pea said didn't hold a threat, they held a promise. And god help her, this was one promise Rule was determined not to break.

But she didn't know that a few months from now the life of the boy she loved was going to be threatened, and that she was the perfect sacrifice.
