come and wash over my feet. I watched the waves a few
times and then a strong arm wrapped around my waist and pulled me
back against an equally strong torso. I closed my eyes, his face
was blacked out due to the bright sun directly behind him. He
nibbled my ear, kissed down my neck while his hands held me to him
and stroked my hair. Then he whispered to me, "Time to wake up,
Claire-bear. Time to wake up, love..." It was Neil's voice and I
woke up with a start. My head kicked up so suddenly that I knocked
into Will's chin, which hurt really bad, let me tell you. It was
like someone had hit me on the back of my head with a large
rock.
He cursed and rubbed his chin
slowly. "I'm not sure who that was worse for me, or
you."
I rolled over and put my hand on
the back of my head, wincing. "Me...I was surprised -and- your chin
is much sharper than my head. Comparatively." I closed my eyes
against the dull ache for a moment before looking at him, his hand
still on his chin but he was smiling at me. I couldn't help but
smile back. "Why are you smiling at me?"
"You're just... so beautiful,
Claire. So pure. A person just gets the feeling that you've never
done a single terrible thing in your whole life." With the exception of thinking of another guy
while you were giving me a wonderful back massage,
maybe . I winced again, trying to push my
thoughts down. Now was not the time to be thinking about that
nameless man again.
I held out my arms, hoping he would
close the distance between us. He did, without hesitation. I hugged
him and he rubbed his nose against my neck. "No one is perfect,
Will. Neither am I." He chuckled against my shoulder and then
kissed it softly.
"Don't let our parents hear you say
that. They are perfect." He said the last bit loudly for emphasis,
in case they were listening. He looked down at me, looking over my
entire face, feature by feature. "I think you got more than half of
the perfect your father gave to you."
My heart was melting, I wasn't sure
I believed what he was saying but I sure as heck wanted to! I
wrapped my arms around his neck pulled him down to my lips. Almost.
I turned my head at the last second, remembering what would happen
if I let anyone aside from the devil kiss me. "Let me destress you
now..." I pushed on his shoulders until he was on his back. I got
to my knees quickly, he would enjoy this for sure. I'd heard the
other girls talking for years about how much guys loved doing this
one thing. I reached for his pants but he put his hands over
mine.
"Claire, please... you don't have
to do that." I looked at him. My gut felt like it had been kicked
in. He was rejecting me. Just a few minutes ago he told me I was
perfect and now he disagreed with my actions? I tried not to let
the emotions show on my face and either I did a good job or he
wasn't paying attention because he smiled and pulled me back up so
I was laying on his chest. I put my cheek there and just
rested.
The rest of the night was pretty
uneventful. We ordered delivery, watched movies and fell asleep.
The whole time all I could think was that it was much more fun with
Neil. And how I wished he were sitting next to me instead. It
wasn't fair to Will and it wasn't fair to me. I had to talk to him,
and I vowed to do just that...tomorrow.
Chapter 18
Neil
I was coming up on my fifth mile
when I spotted the wanker coming out of Claire's dorm. He was on
his bloody phone again. I couldn't help but wonder who he was
talking to. There was still something that didn't seem right about
him. Something was off.
My thoughts came back to Claire and
I wondered what they'd done last night. Did he kiss her? Did she
enjoy it? Did she moan and roll her hips against his like she'd
done to mine? Did he make her arch her back and lose her mind with
multiple orgasms?
I ran harder. I didn't need to be
thinking about that shit. It'd been two weeks since I'd slept with
a girl and it was getting downright
times and then a strong arm wrapped around my waist and pulled me
back against an equally strong torso. I closed my eyes, his face
was blacked out due to the bright sun directly behind him. He
nibbled my ear, kissed down my neck while his hands held me to him
and stroked my hair. Then he whispered to me, "Time to wake up,
