Love me Endlessly

Chapter 21- Moving on.

I groaned as the sound of Sexy love by Ne-yo filled my quiet room. I flipped over onto my stomach and searched for my phone, knowing it was Lyric calling. My head buried into the pillow as I blindly answered the phone, saying a sleepy hello, but it was muffled by the pillow.

"Doll, I can't understand you when you talk like that." Lyric's smooth voice filled my ear, making my stomach tingle. I turned my head out of the pillow and groaned. "Someone's tired I see." He chuckled.

"M' just woke up." I slurred before letting how a big yawn. "But I miss you." I added, pouting out my lip.

"Aw! I miss you too my love." He gushed. "Last night was hard without you sleeping in my arms." He added and my stomach twisted at his words. I wanted to tell him about the dream I had and how Shane showed up hurt. And that we hung out and then he stayed the night. Or even the part where I slept in our bed in another guys arms.

But I couldn't bring myself to do it! I couldn't hurt him and I knew if I told him it would kill him. So I lied and spared his feelings even though every part of me didn't want to lie to him.

"Same for me, baby. I had a horrible nightmare." I said and he let out a little sad sigh. I could just see his eyebrows furrowing together, making wrinkles form in his forehead, and all of it falling together to show that he was sad by the adorable pouting of his lips. "I was better after a few minuets of just laying there. Nothing to worry your sexy head about." I added, biting my lip as my mouth tasted like vomit from lying.

He gave a small chuckle before the sound of his dad calling for him filled the phone. "Shit! Doll, I have to go. My dad is wanting to go to the movies and then go stop by mom's grave. I'll call you later." He rushed out and I could hear the giggling of his little sister filling the house.

"Alright, babe." I yawned and sat up on my elbow, hair falling in my eyes.

"Love you!" He rushed out before the phone clicked off.

"Love you too." I laughed and sat the phone down on the nightstand. I looked over my shoulder and saw that Shane wasn't there, but the bed was still warm. "Guess he just go up as well." I threw my legs over the bed while pulling my hair up in a messy bun.

The smell of Shane's famous waffles filled my nose causing a smile to form on my dry lips. I stood up in a stretch, back popping, and mouth open in another yawn. I walked by the mirror and gave a small nod at the reflection.  I didn't look great but I didn't look horrible either. I just looked like a sleepy Ella without make up.

I followed the smell of waffles and the sound of Confident by Justin Bieber into the kitchen. I stopped at the door way biting back a laugh as I found Shane in pair of sweats that hung low on his hips and a apron over, back turned towards me, and dancing like no one was watching. He shook his hips to the beat of the song and sang the lyrics with all his might into the spatula he was using.

"Then she started dancing, sexual romancing, Nasty but she fancy, lipstick on my satin sheets. What's your nationality? I wonder if there's more of you. She's got my attention, she's confident" He belted, body rolling into the air, and opening up the waffle maker I forgot we had.

I giggled a little bit as he tried to glide across the tile but his feet got tangled together. He spun around at my giggle and instantly turned beet red. I smirked at him and strolled over, pulling the spatula out of his grasp, setting it down on the counter top, before filling his hands with mine.

"Follow me." I smiled, glancing down at out bare feet. He looked down. cheeks still flustered, and hands becoming sweaty. I began to slowly glide across the floor, encouraging him to do the same.  He gave me an unsure look and went to pull his hand away, but I gripped on tighter. "Come on! It isn't hard if you just try. I promise I won't laugh." I assured him.
