As Long As I Have You // A. Ghale

Advanced Chemistry

Ajay and I jumped into the truck and eagerly drove to the homestead. We held hands the entire way there, hunger for love and lust was what my brain was running on; like an autopilot. There was an instant connection I had felt with him, unlike anyone else. Ajay was special.

Ajay left the keys in the ignition and jumped out of the car. I quickly followed suit. Once we were back together, we grasp hands and run into the homestead. It was a little walk from the road, just up a couple of stairs leading to the house. The scenery was very beautiful, but Ajay had my eyes on him.

Once we had reached the door, Ajay leans in and kisses me, slowly at first but then gradually gets more rough. My hands find their way into his hair, wrapping my arms around him for support. He picks me up, and I wrap my legs around his torso.

I don't stop, but I find myself breathless. Ajay just knew how to do these things, he showed he wasn't new to the female scene. He knew what he was doing.

I let out a slight moan, and a grin appeared across Ajay's face, he was enjoying my state of weakness. He knew exactly which strings to pull; like a was his puppet.

The day slips into the night and Ajay and I began to fall into a deep slumber. I was still awake, thinking about what just happened...

"You're so beautiful when you think." Ajay speaks, his voice in a low husky vibrato sound. I rolled over to face him, seeing his brown eyes sink into mine, like how a waterfall drips into a lake. He gave me such joy, more than just adventures and killing the bad guys, he was someone I hadn't ever had in my life. 

"You know-"

"Wait, let me finish." I sigh, but continue to listen to him, "You're always smiling, even when we are in the direst of situations. You just continue to glow, like you have all the answers. I can't focus around you, I-I love you. I love you, Delilah. And I will not stop saying that until the day I die." He holds my hand, and kisses it. He treated my like a glass sculpture, if he dropped me I'd break into a million pieces. 

I had tears sliding down my cheeks, he was being honest. I could tell, he looked away when he was lying. He kept looking directly into my eyes, like he could see into my soul. It was burning holes into my heart.  

"I love you too, Ajay." I say, pulling him into a honeymoon position. We stay that way, the time was slipping by us but we didn't mind it. It was nice too slow down and see the world in a different light for a while.

We began to slide back in to a slumber so deep, even the Mariana trench couldn't wake us up. We had a connection. We had something that nobody gets all the time, we had chemistry.
