Heart of Gold

Chapter 21

He had taken Mazey to school and I stayed home looking through my closet for something to wear. I found a sleeveless dress fitted blue dress that still had the tag on. When did I buy this? I looked at the tag it wasn't in English it was French so I know now where I bought this dress. I found a pair of shoes that matched it. I didn't have much to do in preparation. Mazey on the other hand, I had to pack her sleepover bag and her favourite pillow.

I went to her room standing on my tip toes trying to reach the sleeping bag on the top shelf. I jumped but still couldn't reach it. If there was ever a time I wish I wasn't 5'4 it's now.

"What are you doing?" I looked at him he was leaned against the door post.

"I'm trying to reach that sleeping bag." I pointed at the green bag.

"Okay." He said and he didn't even have to really stretch. Now that I look at us, if I was ever going to make the first move I'd have to go on tip toes and he'd probably have to bend his knees to kiss me. We have kissed. Does he bend his knees?

"Do you have to bend your knees when you kiss me?" I asked.

"Sometimes." He answered unfolding the sleeping bag.

"Would it be better if I went of tip toes?" I asked.

"Not really I could lift you." He said.

"I feel bad now." I said sadly.

"Why?" He asked confused brushing out the sleeping bag.

"I'm short." I said.

"I think it's cute." He folded back to bag. "Short girls have always been better." He said.

"Better at what?" I asked looking for monster pyjamas for Mazey. He didn't answer me but I felt him behind me, his body almost pressing against me. "What are you doing?" I asked him.

"Nothing just watching my wife." He said and I smiled. He laced his hand around my waist and I tried to pull away but he pressed me against him. I turned to him and looked up at him and in a second my feet weren't touching the ground and our lips were pressed together. I wrapped my hands around his neck and locked him between my legs. He pressed my back against a wall and moved one hand from around my waist to under my shirt. He moved away my lungs were burning. He pulled up my sweatshirt I still hadn't put on any bra. My nipples hardened at his sudden interest in them and I could feel the blush form on my cheeks.

He kissed one of them and used his tongue to make swirling motions on it. My toes curled and my nails were moving over his back but not hard enough to hurt him. He pulled it and a moan escaped my lips and he groaned. He moved to the other one and I took a sharp breath, it felt like something was building on my insides and I liked it. He moved his free hand over my stomach and to waist of my jeans shorts. He undid the button and zipper and began slipping his fingers down. He removed his hand and I knew why I had sunken my nails in his back.

"I'm sorry." I said unwrapping my legs and pulling down my shirt and looked at my nails forming crescent moons in his back. "I'm so sorry." I apologized.

"It's okay." He said putting on his shirt and taking up the sleeping bag. His phone vibrated in his pocket and he got it out. "My mom is calling." He said before answering. "Yes mother Kasey-Ann is okay." He looked frustrated. I went back to my search for pyjamas. I got out the green monster ink one that she loved. "No mother Kase isn't pregnant." What? "She is beside me mother." He said, he handed me the phone and walked away.

"Mrs. Heart." I said.

"Oh no call me mom or Edith." She said chirpily.

"Edith." I tried it out but it felt weird.
