CHAPTER 27:

Emma's POV:

He licks his lips and my gaze is drawn to his lips like two magnets are drawn to each other.

I couldn't control myself anymore. So, I kiss him with all my might. For a second, he doesn't respond but then he kisses me back. And it feels just like the very first time. Fireworks and butterflies and the electricity through his touch.

He tastes just like mint. He pull apart for a second and look at each other. He places his hands on the back of my thighs and hoists me up. I scream a little from the sudden movement and hold him tighter, if that is even possible.

He starts walking towards the bedroom. And I stop him.

"Wait! The lights" I tell him. Instead of putting me down, he walks towards the switches and starts walking out again. As we enter the living room, I stop him again.

"The television is on" I say, again. He gives me a look and after a second, he walks over and shuts the television. He starts walking towards the bedroom, and... I stop him again.

"The living room lights and fan" I say and he gives me a frustrated look. I give him a helpless look. The very next second, he places me on the floor.

"When you're done, I'll be waiting in the room" he says and walks inside the bedroom and shuts the door behind him. For a second, I sit there, dumbfounded.

I switch off the lights in the living room, tidy up the room a little. It takes me about five minutes and the place looks so much cleaner.

I open the door to see Jeremy asleep on the bed. He must be really tired. So, I silently shut the door and tip toe towards the bed. He must have fallen asleep while reading as I see a book on his chest. I grab the book and keep it aside. I grab the blanket and place it on him. I give him a kiss on the forehead.

For a second, I can't help but admire him while sleeping. He looks so much at peace and like an adorable baby.

I switch on the air conditioner and take a seat on the bed. I don't feel like sleeping so I start studying for the upcoming exams. I grab my glasses from the bedside table and concentrate on studying. I go through my study material, make notes and do all the necessary research on my laptop.

I don't know how long it has been but I start feeling tired. I look at the time, and it's a little over 3 in the morning. I have this sudden realisation that I have to get to work tomorrow at 11 am. So put everything aside and lay on the bed.

I am half asleep when I feel hands on my stomach. I look to my right and see that Jeremy has placed his hands on me, subconsciously. I smile a little at the gesture.

Within minutes I am in deep slumber. I don't get any nightmares.

I wake up to the sound of the door opening. I lazily sit up and look around. I see Jeremy frozen, his one hand is on the door and the other holding the towel.

"I am really sorry. I tried going around in silence. But this damn door, it's noisy as fuck" he says.

I cringe a little at the cuss word but decide not to say anything. He realises his mistake and gives me an apologetic look. I give him an assuring smile. He then proceeds to go in the bathroom. After a minute, I hear the shower running.
