TWINSANITY

Chapter 14: First Night

KALISIA

I guess he got hot, because he leaned up and slid his jacket off without a word and threw it onto the floor. I didn't even care if dad caught us. This was way too amazing and worth it.

He laid back onto the bed and without even thinking, I started to unbutton his shirt, one button at a time. I paused and looked up at him for consent, and he nodded back. Once I was finished unbuttoning all of his buttons I looked down at his abs. Woah, he was really fit. I didn't notice that earlier. He seemed a lot muscular than before. I guess I didn't pay a lot of attention before, but now I got a close-up.

I pulled the thought from my mind and began to run my hand up and down his stomach feeling every crease, every muscle, every droplet of sweat. His breath quickened, but he didn't seem to mind. It was nice just touching him.

After what seemed like maybe an hour or so, we still just laid there awake. I was laying on his chest just running my fingers across his abs, while he stared at the ceiling in silence.

“This is nice.” Was all I could say.

“Yeah, it really is.” He choked back like he was in pain. Maybe I was doing something wrong.

The paranoid side of me was frightened. I knew nothing of what I was doing. I needed to buy a handbook or something, but he wasn't objecting so I continued.

I don't know how much time had passed, but everything started to fade. I could hear him quietly snoring above my head. I was so exhausted, but I couldn't let dad find him in here. I fought back the exhaustion, but it overtook me.

DAMION

My left arm was asleep. Cuddling always seems like fun until your arm disappears, and then when you begin to move it, it's the worst pain imaginable. What time was it? How long had I been laying here? I reached for my cell in my back pocket with my right hand.

Shit! It's 5am. I have to get out of here before Mr. Cross finds me here. He would kill me. I can't believe I fell asleep with her in my arms. I look down at her; even more beautiful asleep.

What have I gotten myself into? She's so pure, beautiful, kind. I can't do this. This is wrong; I have to get out of here.

I slowly pulled my arm out from under her head and slid off the bed without making a sound. I pulled my shoes back on and grabbed my leather jacket. There was a big tree right outside Kalisia's window I could jump on and climb down. Why did her room have to be the one on the second floor?

After, I got my leather jacket on, I looked over at her once more and paused. Should I leave a note? She's not truly my girlfriend, but I felt a slight obligation to leave something behind, anything. I reached out of her window and pulled a small white flower off of the tree there. I walked over to where she was laying. She was completely out of it and didn't move. I leaned over her and placed the white flower onto the pillow I'd been laying on.

I bent down, kissed her on the forehead, and before I knew it I was halfway down the tree. I parked just a block away at an abandoned park, so it wasn't a long walk, but it felt like the longest walk of my life.

KALISIA

The light shown in bright onto my face; I took in a deep breath of happiness. I stretched my arm over kind of hoping he was there, but also afraid if he was still there. He was gone. I was sad that he just left and didn't say goodbye, yet I'm just glad dad never saw him.

Just then I saw the flower laying on the pillow. Did he leave that here for me? Oh my gosh. I picked it up and smelled it deeply. The smell was sweet like an apple mixed with honey. I didn't peg Devon for a romantic.

That was the best night's sleep I had had in weeks though. I wonder when Devon left last night? I didn't wake up at all or hear him leave. I'll text him.

I grabbed my cellphone off my end table and punched in my code to unlock. Damn, I don't have his number. I'll just have to ask him for it when I get to school. I looked up at the time on my phone. s**t! 7:15, I'm going to be late. Why hadn't dad woke me up yet?

I jumped out of bed, ran to my closet, but this time I pulled out my cute sweaters. It was too damn cold outside for miniskirts. I threw on a cute black sweater with white designs, some of my tight blue jeans, and cute slip on black flats, then took off downstairs.
