After War Storm

I woke up the following morning, curled into Cal's side. "Morning," he said from behind me, feeling me stir.
"Morning," I replied sitting up as he did.

"Sleep well?" Cal asked, a sparkle in his eye.
"Very well, actually. You?"
"I enjoyed my night if that's what your asking."

I rolled my eyes at him and moved to stand up but Cal wrapped his arm around my waist holding me against him.

"We have to go," I said twisting round to face him.
"I'd much rather stay here with you," he said bringing his lips closer to mine.
"Me too," I brushed my lips lightly against his. "But we do have to go and speak to the Newbloods. If we wanted to do this," I kissed him again, "then we could have just stayed at the palace."
"Well if I'd known that I would have listened to the others."
"Like you ever listen to anyone of you don't agree."
"I listen to people," he argued.
"Name one time." There was a moment of silence and I laughed at his frustrated expression.

Then Cal started tickling me and I let out at a squeal. Soon he was on top of me, his face inches from mine. "You know you're no better than I am."
"I know but I admit to it."
"I love you," he said bring his face closer to mine.
"I love you too," I whispered and Cal crashed his lips to mine, and we locked in a passionate kiss.

We pulled away a few minutes later but only slightly. "Fine," I conceded "we don't have to go yet, but not long."
"Ok," Cal said, a wide smile forming on his face.

Our lips met again as my hands moved the the buttons on his shirt.

So I know this is a very short chapter but it's only because I wanted to write something quickly this morning to say how sorry I am for not updating in so long. I will update again this afternoon and hopefully it will be longer.

I kind of got writer's block on this story and have been focusing more on my Twilight fan fiction 'Edward Cullen's Little Sister' but I am going to start writing this again.

I am very sorry for the incredibly long wait and will try and update at least weekly from now on.

Any ideas please comment them or message me.

Thanks for those still reading even after the wait. Next chapter will be up later. Xx
