Everlasting

Chapter Five

Wynn’s POV

We are watching the second movie when Cooper whispers in my ear, “Look 

over.”              

I turn my head to see Ava and Mitch kissing. I turn so I can see Cooper’s face. He is smiling at me. I turn my attention back to the movie. Cooper hugs me closer to him. I’m so happy that Ava is getting what she wants. I squeeze Cooper. I’m getting what I want. Although, Saturday will be the real decision. Unless of course something clicks in Cooper before me. That is one way you find out your Everlasting before eighteen. 

                        I am daydreaming about this when the movie goes off. He softly bites my neck. “Out of the daydream the movie is over. It better have been about me.”

“It was.” My cheeks get red, and my face goes down.

He lifts my head and kisses me. I smile when we separate. I’m falling hard for him. So hard. He takes my hand as I say goodbye to everyone. Ava gets into the car. While I walk Cooper over to Sebastian’s car. “I guess I’ll see you tomorrow.” I say.

“I don’t want to call it a night yet.” He says as he kisses my ear. 

“I can come pick you up from Sebastian’s.”

“I’ll see you shortly,” he says smiling. He kisses me and gets in the car. 

                        I drive Ava to her house where she is talking about Mitch. “I don’t know what it means. I hope it means something. I just don’t know.” 

“Did you two talk about it or anything?” I ask. Looking at her all happy and excited. 

“No. I mean we were talking and then we kissed. Then kissed more. Then it was time to leave. He said he’d see me tomorrow and kissed my forehead. Is that the kiss of death?” Ava can’t keep the worry out of her voice. 

“No, it’s not the kiss of death. It’s sweet. I find it to be sweet. I wouldn’t think anything bad from it at all.” I reassure her as I turn onto her street.

“Thank you. I’m just worried. That’s all.”

I pull into her driveway. “It’s normal to be worried but everything is going to work out for the best I promise. If it doesn’t work with him, well you tried.” 

Ava turns to face me. “It’s just that I’ve wanted him for so long. I just want it to work out.”

I grab her hands and smile at her. “If it’s meant to work out it will. You can’t force it. You wouldn’t want to anyway.”

“You’re right. Thank you.”

“You’re right. Sleep well.” I wave and wait for her to get inside of her house.

                        I drive to get Cooper. He is waiting out front of the house smiling. He gets in the passenger seat. He brought a small bag. “I figured I could get ready at your place in the morning, and we could do something.”

“Do you like hiking?” I glance over at him. 

“Actually, I do.” He seems shocked by my suggestion.

“Do you have appropriate clothes?” Or any hot oil in the bag? Stop Wynn Stop! 

“Appropriate for what?” He runs a finger down my arm. Lord help me please. 

“Hiking.” I smile. By the way, what do you sleep in? Asking for a friend. 

“Yes, I do. I came prepared for anything.” He whispers the word anything in my ear. 

Dear Jesus, if I drive the car to my house in one piece without either ripping his clothes off or ending up in a ditch from the flirting it will be by your grace. 

                        We end up at my house. I grab two bottles of water and we go to my bedroom. I pull him towards me and pull off his shirt. I kiss and lick his chest moving my way down to his stomach. He moans for me. His hands racing across my body. He lays me down on the bed. I drag my nails down his back. He moans. He lays on top of me. I pepper his neck with kisses. He is softly whispering something which I can’t understand. I kiss and nibble on his chest and stomach. His chanting becomes a bit louder so I can hear him. “You’re mine. All mine. Mine.”

I flip him over so I’m on top. He looks up at me as if I’m some sort of angel. I rub 

up against him. Feeling myself getting wetter as I do. My phone chimes but I ignore it. He grinds harder and faster up against my pelvis. “I know you want to,” he whispers in my ear.

“Want to what?”

“Release.”

“Yes,” I say breathlessly. 

His hands are on my bottom taking control. Moving me the way he wants me to. He is kissing me in such a way that my breath is taken away. I feel myself about to c****x. “I’ve got you, beautiful. Let go.”’ He says as he nibbles on my neck. 

That is exactly what I do. 

                        We are on the Milford Track the next afternoon. We’re having the best time just talking and being together. We took a shower this morning which was pointless looking at us now. We brought each other pleasure by touching one another. I want him and tonight I plan on doing just that. That will be my birthday present. We keep kissing and holding hands. It’s nice to just connect with someone. 

                        “The plan for tonight's dancing?” He asks me. 

“That’s the plan. Do you have something else in mind?” I asks playfully.

“We could go out to dinner and then meet everyone.”

“I would like that.” I know I’m smiling like a fool. 

“Good. Then that’s what we’ll do.” He smiles at me and takes my hand. 

We continue the path. All I can think is how badly I hope he is my Everlasting. I pray to the Gods above that they’ll grant me him. It’s been a crappy year. I deserve him. I don’t care if the other guy is a millionaire, adores me, etc. I want Cooper. At that moment I get the funniest feeling. It’s like something is taken away from me. I don’t know what, but something is taken away. I feel lighter. We reach the top of the trail, and we get someone to take our photo. 

                        We are looking over the edge when I hear in my head, “It would be far too early to tell her I love her.”  

OMG COOPER IS MY EVERLASTING!!!
