“I’ve had nothing done.” She stated bluntly.
“Oh I know.” My eyes wandered over her face “Jay said you were beautiful.” I almost snorted. The thought of him having eyes for her made my blood boil. “He liked you.” I watched her eyes widen at my confession.
“No he liked Nancy?” Her voice wobbled.
“No he liked you.” I reiterated my earlier statement. “You should have seen his face when I admitted what had happened between us, he looked like a bear with a sore head.” She didn’t say anything further she just stared in my eyes. She was so youthful. I ran my hand over her cheek and watched her close her eyes. “Take your hair down.” I muttered against her lips and she instantly did as she was told. As much as I loved the way she’d disobey me and pushed me from time to time she was a good girl and did as I asked. Her hair cascaded over the pillow behind her head and the familiar smell hit me. My hand ran over the skin on her stomach and hip under the white bedsheet and for a second I was sure I heard her stifle a moan. Being this close to her again was dangerous. My pulse rate spiked as she ushered her body closer to mine, her leg hooked itself over my hip, my hand grew its own mind and traced over her arse, pulling her even closer. Her eyes were still shut. Fuck sake Av your making this extremely hard for me. Her thumb traced my neck softly and I took a deep breath. I wanted to tell her I loved her, I wanted to tell her I’d keep my promise on staying clean, I wanted nothing more than to explain how fucked up the situation between Rava and Bandoni was and what my hands were capable of doing but I couldn’t. My heart thudded but her lips had parted slightly, her eyes were softly closed and the sound of her even breathing almost soothed me. She’d fallen asleep. Her body was slack, a dead weight against me but everything I needed. My fingers traced her hair as I pushed it away from her face.
***** I crouched down next to her, excessive amounts of blood were leaving her body and she was screaming out in pain. Jay wasn’t here to save me to save us this time. This was revenge. His revenge. ***** I awoke from my nightmare sweating, drops of salty water dropped from my forehead and my breathing unsteady. Nightmares were regular when I was sober, part of the reason I never wanted to be however, it had been a while since I’d had that one. The one of Holly losing the baby. Nightmares of my past always came back when I was clean. I glanced across at Av, she was still sleeping. The room in the air was cooler this morning. Her hair was fanned out across the white pillow beneath her head, her lips were parted slightly and her chest rose and fell softly. I smiled to myself and ran my fingers over her collar bone before I kissed her cheek. She barely moved. I smirked and watched her sleep for a while. Call me creepy but I enjoyed watching her sleep. She was peaceful and it rubbed off on me. I couldn't remember the last time I’d slept soundly. I watched as she flung herself towards me, she squeezed her eyes together and flexed underneath the covers before she groaned. Her eye lashes fluttered as she struggled to keep her eyes open. A small chuckle escaped my lips and she smirked.
“How long have you been awake?” Her voice was husky almost as if it was still asleep, her arms fell around my neck and I tucked her hair behind her ear.
“Not long enough.” I found myself running my lips against the edges of her jaw. I loved sleepy sexy Avaya. I could get used to waking up like this. The sheets had dropped lower, freeing her chest and ribs and I bit down on my lip trying my very hardest not to let my morning glory get the best of me. Her nipples were stood to attention, my guess it was because of the cool chill in the room and I cleared my throat slightly. Her eyes opened slowly, they were dark with desire and I shook my head. I knew that look. She tugged lightly on my arms, I was now over her, she looked even smaller beneath me. My erection grew against my boxers and I examined her. She was giving me that same look she gave me every time she wanted something more. Your promise, your promise, your promise. I chanted over and over in my head. I hadn’t even kissed her and she’d already got me like this. Her eyes never left mine. Every time I looked back at her she was still watching me. Her fingertips traced my shoulders and down the back of my arms, I needed her desperately to stop before I lost control. The other part of me was screaming to let go. I toyed with the idea of just moving and offering to make breakfast but I wasn’t hungry for food. You could eat her. I growled in response to my inner thoughts and felt her place her soft lips against mine. Her breath was surprisingly sweet considering she’d not brushed her teeth and I closed my
