A Silhouette and Maybe More

Highlight Of My Life

I couldn't even begin to understand how overwhelming these past few minutes had been. It was all sudden and out of the blue, I thought that what me and Dan shared was permanent, no second thoughts or doubt included, we were a duo. There was still so much more that we had yet to discover about ourselves, so many questions unanswered and I fear will remain that way forever.

"I'm only doing this because...well, I-I love you." He quietly stammered. Saying this was only going to make it worse for both me and for Dan, I couldn't cope knowing that tomorrow morning would be our last moments together and could possibly be the last time I'll ever see him. In the beginning, he forced me to stay, now he's forcing me to leave.

"I love you too. Please don't make me go." I muttered clearing away the hot tears that trickled their way down my face. I leaned my head on his shoulder while he gently stroked my head.

"You know I can't let you stay, you have to go back to your family, they'll have missed you Amelia. You have people who care about you - I don't."

"That's not true!" I abruptly cried lifting my head. "I care about you! I always have." My voice increased in volume only making him feel worse about his decision. If I tried hard enough to persuade him to change his mind, I could extend my stay here. He sighed heavily while he picked up my body and shuffled over to the head of the bed. With him leaning against the propped up pillows, he crossed his legs placing me in the middle, I was surrounded by him. I rested my head upon his chest while he protectively enveloped me in his arms.

"Don't make this harder for me." I could hear his voice crack mid-sentence as his emotions began to take effect on him.

"Promise me one thing." I whispered.

"Anything."

"Please, whatever you do, do not turn yourself in." He silently thought about it before responding. The scarce silence of hesitation worried me.

"Okay, I promise." Relief washed over me, at least something good has came out of this emotional conversation. We sat for a while swaying to calm our emotions, it was hard for me to accept how difficult tomorrow will be; one reason being having to leave Dan, but also having to return to way things were: boring, dull and event-less. Here, I would have a daily dose of adrenaline pulsate through my veins having that exhilarating ecstasy-like feeling fill me up, he was my drug. I needed him.

As I clung onto him he made sure to get the most of me while I was here, gently caressing my cheek, my head, my arms, legs, everything, sending non-stop waves of chills over my body.
Nobody has ever made me feel so alive like this. He sat me up, pulling me away from his chest to sit me directly in front of him, I could literally feel his breath on my skin. He said nothing for his mind was saying it all holding himself back from something.

Ever so gently he began to creep his way towards me staring at my lips giving me some indication of his next move, my heart fluttered and my stomach flipped, my whole body was freaking out like it had a mind of it's own. I finished his journey when I planted my lips onto his immediately letting him in. We made that bond that was completely unbreakable, nothing could tear us apart when we're together...or at least it seemed like it, if only it were true.

We became totally lost in each other, getting ourselves as close to each other as possible holding on intensively. He raised himself onto his knees immediately arching my back to kiss him. It was like what happened in the kitchen all over again. After a minute he already had me pinned to the bed with my arms spread out to the sides of me as Dan locked me into place, his kness by either side of my body showing a sign of dominance. The kiss became increasingly heated, he had complete control over me as I let him kiss down my neck stopping at my collar bone, not there. He had became more vigirous than last time determined to leave his mark like I was something that belonged to him.

Getting my arms out from underneath his grasp I tugged on the hem of his t-shirt lifting it half way up his back until he pulled it off himself, repeating the same steps on me. My breath hitched as his cold hands made contact with my waist, making him smirk a little before continuing where he left off.

The night concluded with our bodies in our natural form, sweat pouring and the raspy breathing worn out our lungs. I lay beside him, heavily tucked under the sheet of warmth and concealment. After the stimulation of the intense showing of our affection for one another, I was in a dying desperation of staying, hoping that this night would maybe change his mind. He engulfed me in his arms pulling me closer to him, I could feel the heat radiate of him. His stubbly chin tickled my forehead causing a smile to play across my lips, this night has been without a doubt the highlight of my life (probably because it's been the only highlight.)

Our last night together couldn't of gone better; the two of us cocooned within each others embrace sleeping peacefully through the night.

The early morning singing of the birds acted as an alarm as it woke me up staring into the face of Dan. My last morning waking up here.
Today was the day. I had to leave no matter how much I dreaded it. Dan was right; I could get in serious trouble with the police if I was caught with him and I couldn't deny how much I wanted to be with him, but for my sakes I had to take that option.
I was brought out of my thoughts when I felt my body tightening up. His arms coiled round my body making me feel slightly claustrophobic but in a sense of safety. He awoke, his blue eyes peering down at me still half asleep. A smile tugged on the corners of his lips before delicately kissing the tip of my nose, causing that electrifying feeling to surge through me again. How am I going to live without this?

"I'm going to miss you." I whispered placing my hand on his face gliding my thumb across his cheek.

"I'm going to miss you too." He whispered back.
