Love , So Bittersweet

Entangled Fates And Iron Hearts

  Light broke through the window shining into the males eyes . Eric silently woke up feeling the light female atop his body . Eric lifted his head to look at the still sleeping female , he let his head fall back to the pillow staring at the ceiling . The boy went to move his arm realizing her hand was still holding his Tight , him realizing his phone wasn't an option for occupying his time .

  Time went by Eric still stuck staring at the ceiling. Eric hadn't mind ,after all Lin was the one cuddling with him . In contrast Lin had been awake for about 10 minutes now , but she didn't want to move her too comfortable on the boy . Ideally she could lay there for ever , but she knew that wasn't an option .

  Lin's head moved to look up at his , in response Eric's did the same . They're eyes met Frozen in time smiles forming across both of their faces . Her open hand , still planted in on his chest , rose to his slightly scruffy face . Lin pushed herself up his body , lips meeting in a moment unlike any before . Both wanted time to freeze in that moment , never wavering .

  They're lips stayed together for what seemed like minutes , Eric without himself realizing had rose his hand to her cheek softly caressing her face . The kiss was broken , but not for long as the two smiled softly at each other . Once again they kissed , but this time it lasted for a short time 2 seconds maybe ? Eric left his hand on her face for a short time as she laid back down , snuggling her haid into his shoulder and her left arm overtop his body .

  Neither spoke they just sat cuddling with the morning light breaching they're safe-haven . Minutes? No hours passed both having lost any since of time . Eventually Eric spoke , " You want something to eat ?" Lin waited a minute before responded , " I do , but I don't want this moment to end ." Eric chuckled ," We can lay here all day , but you should eat. " A brief pause before she loosened herself from him .

  Eric rose to the floor stretching ,  he quickly noticed how the female became cold . Eric was good at reading his surroundings and the people around him , a skill a learned from rugby . Eric removed his hoodie and tossed it at Lin . Lin went to speak but he just shushed her wether it be a comment on his scarred , defined body , or the fact he himself would become cold .

  Eric disappeared through the doorway . Lin had a smile unlike normal as she put the large hoodie on , the scent of old spice and whatever shampoo Eric used filling the air around her . The hoodie overcame her quickly considering the size difference between the two. Lin pulled her hidden hands up to her face bringing the hoodie up and holding it there , the scent mesmerizing her .

Lin wasn't popular , nor was she involved in many activities at school . The girl was a year younger than Eric , but they both were Juniors . The girl wasn't athletic , she was antisocial , and had average grades who had no idea how Eric became hers .

Eric on the other hand was semi popular , made average grades , and was impressively athletic . Eric was a quiet boy , he himself antisocial aswell. He avoided other jocks and spent most his time alone at a gym or at the rugby pitch . He mostly took care of himself , though his parents did love and care for him . He aswell thought it to a miracle to have Lin fall into his arms , the two so similar but so different .

  As few minutes passed before Eric called her name for breakfast . Within another few minutes the girl arrived down the stairs , much more sluggish then Eric who seemed like he had been moving around all day. The clock on the wall read 10:22 AM , early for the girl and very late for the boy. Eric made two plates of eggs , bacon , and toast with a few to spare .
