“Why?”
“Wanted to clear my head.”
“Of what?” I ask, distractedly as I watch his lips.
“Of you.”
I jerk my eyes up to him and I realize in the last few seconds, his breathing has escalated just like mine. He looks on the verge of something and I probably look the same. The verge of throwing myself at him, touching him, climbing his body, to reassure myself that he’s really here.
That we really had sex last night.
“Of me?”
“Yeah.” His eyes bore into mine. “But I couldn’t.”
God, I’m buzzing.
My breaths are rattling my lungs and there’s a crackle under my skin.
I don’t want to, but I break our stare and glance back. The kitchen hallway is empty and so is the main hallway. I can hear people chatting in the staff room but no one’s up and about. Which is super rare and I know it’s not going to stay that way. Someone’s bound to come, scurrying for one emergency or another.
I grab his hand and pull him away from the mouth of the hallway. “Let’s go.”
Silently, he lets me drag him into the closet just by the kitchen, as if he wanted to be alone with me as much as I did.
It’s the same closet I hid myself in the first night he came back. I hadn’t even seen him yet and I could still feel him, moving around in my body.
He is under my skin. Always has been.
I shut the door and switch on the light, facing him.
There’s hardly any space between us. The closet was small to begin with but with him inside it, I feel like there’s not enough air for us to breathe.
And then, Zach eats up that bare minimum space by pressing into my body. My spine’s stuck to the door and my front is flush with his.
“There was blood. On the sheets. I saw it when I left,” he rasps, and I feel his cock, throbbing just under my ribs.
I thread my fingers through his hair. “I know. I saw it too.”
Pain flashes through his features. Pain and regret. Probably for making me bleed.
“I’m...”
“I like it,” I whisper when he trails off, craning my neck up to get closer to his lips. “It means I’m yours and you’re mine.”
He swallows as he scans my face. “Are you feeling okay?”
At this, I lose my breath and tighten my arms around his neck like he’ll leave right now, right this second. I haven’t been feeling okay all morning.
“Blue?”
Biting my lip, I shake my head once.
His expression goes alert and so does his body. All tight and big and clashing with the softness of mine.
“Do you hurt?”
“I, uh, it’s not that.”
