Harmony
Morning comes, and my eyes flutter open to find Blaze sleeping soundly next to me. He's on his back; his hair thrashed over his eyes and his pink lips slightly parted.
It is such a beautiful sight, and I can't stop my lips from stretching in appreciation.
Last night feels as though it was only a dream, but the slight discomfort between my thighs reminds me that it did happen. It was the most breathtaking experience of my entire life, and I would do anything to relive all the endearment I felt in that very moment.
I contemplate waking him up, but I decide to let him sleep some more. He is probably really tired after last night, and it's just 5:50 am. We have an English class together at eight, so a few more minutes of sleep won't make us tardy.
I climb off the bed and mince my way to the bathroom. It's a lucky thing my mom packed my toothbrush, and I still find it odd that she would leave me here for the night. I have never seen my mom trusts someone the way she does Mr. Blake in a long time.
I clean my teeth then get dressed in some fresh clothes. I walk delicately out of the room, careful not to wake Blaze, who has now shifted onto his stomach in deep sleep.
I can hear movements in the kitchen downstairs, and the delicious aroma of bacon fills my nostrils.
Mr. Blake seems to have woken up quite early to make breakfast. I figure I could help him out since it isn't in my nature to sit around lazily at someone's home.
I strut down the stairs, and at the sound of my light footsteps, he whirls around from the stove and offers me a pleasant smile.
"Good morning."
I smile. "Good morning; can I be of any help?"
"Nah." He fans me off with a fork. "I am almost through anyway; please have a seat."
