Outlaws

Chapter 22

Latch

Skye

The dinner went good, Mark made them laugh a lot and I was happy about that. As Mark and I were leaving I noticed my mom give me a look. It was a weird look,but I've seen it before. It's like she's really trying to tell me something.

"Bye Skye see you tomorrow and you too Mark." My dad said as we walked out.

As soon as the door closed I pulled myself closer to Mark.

"So I think they like you."

"Why do you say that, they could hate my guts and still put on a fake smile."

"I can tell by my dad. When he says goodbye to a guy I'm dating that means he likes him or approves. When he doesn't he doesn't talk to them. With you he did."

"I feel loved now."

"Good, now let's go back to the hotel, I'm kind of tired."

"Let me ask you this, how could you sleep with all those posters around you?"

"When you're intense with a band, it doesn't bother you."

"Wow."

"Oh and by the way nice attempt at the door kiss."

We stood in the elevator, going up to the top floor. It was only us, awkwardly standing next to each other. I bite my lip and look at him, mark looks back at me and stares at me. I see his eyes look up and down my body and he licks his lips. We scoot closer to each other, to where our finger tips touched.

When our hands touched I felt a surge of happiness, we just naturally hold hands. As our hands laced together I felt my heart race.

Mark looks at me again and I return the favour, our eyes connect and i felt something fly through me. I look at his lips and slowly lean in. I then feel his lips connect with mine, syncing with mine perfectly. He uses his hands to hold my head, I just stand there. But he soon pulls away when the elevator doors open, a stranger walking in with a couple other people.

As the doors closes, me and mark stand opposite sides of the elevator, looking forward. When the people leave, we look at each other again and resume to what we were doing before but this time mark pushes me up against the wall. He holds me in place with his hands on my hips and I have my arms around his neck keeping him close. I kiss him with passion, but tender enough. But we pull away when we hear the door open to our floor. We walk to our room in silence and just let that moment sink in.

When we finally get into our room, we both go to the one bed and sit down next to each other. We look at each other and I felt that same feeling that we had in the elevator. I take Mark's face into my hands and bring him closer to mine, locking lips. As we kiss, mark brings me down laying me underneath him. I could feel the moment get heated but it was interrupted by my phone ringing.

"I guess you should get that." Marks says as he gets off of me and walks to the bathroom.

I take me phone out and see that it's my mom.

"Hey mom!"

"Skye, I just wanted to say that mark was a joy to have. He's very polite, funny and not to mention very handsome."

"Mommm"

"Honey you have to think so to, right?"

"Yeah he is, that's why I like him mom."

"Can I ask you this like if I was your friend and not your mother."

"What?"

"Have you done it with him?"

"MOM!"

"I'm just asking."

"Mom, we are really good friends, and you know I'm still with Jacob."

"That's my girl, now don't go do any funny business with Mark. Love you Skye."

"Love you too mom."

"See you and mark tomorrow."

I hang up and lay down, wow mom. I knew they would like him, I hope they will love him more than Jacob.

"Who was it?"

"It was my mom."

"Oh what did she want?"

"She just wanted to tell me that she had a good time, to tell me good night and that she liked you a lot." I say as I walk up to him and wrap my arms around his waist.

"She liked me?"

"Yeah, she said that you are polite, funny and very handsome."

"Well it was nice to meet her and the rest of your family."

"I can't wait for tomorrow, my niece is going to freak out, she just loves you."

"It's always nice to meet fans."

"She loves you to death, too bad she can't have you."

"Yeah I know, everyone wants me."

"Shut up." I say as push him playfully.

"But too bad I only want you."

I felt him wrap his arms around my waist, he bends his head down to my neck and kisses my neck.

"Mark what are you doing?"

"Anything you want me too."

Mark holds me tighter causing me to feel weak in my knees. I guess he knew I was getting weaker so he lifts me up and throws me onto the bed.

"MARK!"

Mark then crawls on top of me and stares into my eyes. He then smiles and presses his forehead up against mine.

"Skye."

"Mark."

"Why do you do this to me?"

"I don't know, why do you make everything better?"

"I don't know, but I do know one thing."

"That is?"

"That no matter what happens with you and Jacob I wish you the best and hopefully he will finally treat you better. Because anyone would be lucky to have you in their arms."

"Mark what are you trying to say?"

"I think maybe we should just be friends."
