Take my hand and never be afraid again...

Take my hand and never be afraid again 8

Good morning and happiest of birthdays to you, Sugar. I cannot wait to spend an entire uninterrupted week with you, waking to your gorgeous face, listening to your musical laugh and drinking in the sight of your perfect smile.

Yours forever, G.

Most days, he was perfection. I smiled and got up and showered. I dressed in tight black track pants and a white tank top. I brushed my hair and did my make-up. I then went downstairs, where I was greeted by five guys hugging me and wishing me happy birthday.

"Thanks guys!" I laughed.

"Sit. Presents!" Frank said

I sat at the kitchen table and the guys joined me.

Frank handed me parcel. I opened it and it was a photo of the guys and I, with Amelia and Zac.

"Oh Frank! That's amazing, thank you!" I said

The rest of the boys had all chipped in money for my upcoming trip home.

"Thank you all. You are all so thoughtful" I said, hugging them all.

That night we all went out to dinner and then watched a movie.

All too soon, Friday was here. I woke up and rolled over. I didn't check my phone, I didn't get out of bed. Eventually, there was a knock on the door.

"Katya?" Frank whispered

I didn't respond.

I felt a weight at the end of the bed.

"Come on, you have to get out of bed. Please. I'll make you some pancakes while you shower" Frank said.

I looked over to him and sighed, "Okay"

I got up and showered then sat down with Frank and ate the pancakes. Frank then took me out shopping, then to dinner, then we came home and watched a movie. I was relieved to not have any nightmares that night. I knew Frank had been expecting me to.

The next morning we woke up at 6am and Frank took me to the airport. I was so excited, it was so hard to not bounce around. Frank saw me off and I boarded the plane. I read the novel I'd brought and took a nap.

When the plane landed, I grabbed my bag and rushed off. I looked around the airport and spotted him. Gerard was standing there looking for me. Even dressed in daggy clothes and a hat pulled down low I could spot him anywhere. His eyes met mine and I smiled, running to him. I kissed him and he twirled me.

"You want to know something interesting?" I asked

"Mmm?" Gerard murmured, kissing my neck.

"I'm legally an adult here" I whispered

Gerard looked at me and grinned cheekily, "Yes, you are"

We went and got my bags, then we went back to the hotel room Gerard had booked. I'd already told Amelia's parents I was going straight to the house.

The second the hotel room door closed, Gerard twirled me and kissed me passionately. I ran one hand through his hair and had one hand on his waist. Gerard's hands were on my waist. He kissed along my jawline, down to my neck and began to nibble and suck. He slipped the sleeve of my tank top down and began kissing my collarbone and down to my breast. I moaned and pulled him closer to me. Gerard pushed me onto the bed and climbed on top of me, slowly kissing his way up my stomach, taking my tank top with him, til he pushed it over my head and threw it on the floor.

I unhooked my bra and threw that to the floor too. Gerard smiled at me and I pulled his shirt off, that joining the growing pile of clothes on the floor.
