(Belle pov)
Trouble.
I knew I was in it the second those heels clicked sharply onto the roof behind me. Every step was light and dangerous, full of a heavy silent threat that sent violent shivers through me while I tried to keep my breathing steady. I told myself to calm down. I had to stay cool if this was going to work out the way I wanted.
I felt myself jump when the door slammed shut behind me and those clicks got closer, quickly eclipsed by the sound of her deep angry breathing and the warmth of her body hitting mine as she stood up close behind me. I looked out at the dark school grounds, watching the stars come out above our heads while I waited for her to say something. I shouldn't have been surprised when it was me who spoke first. Breaking the silence never was her thing, especially not when she was leaving it to turn sour for the effect of scaring me
"Evening Kelly" I said it distractedly, as if she'd just broke and entered my thought pattern. Which she kinda had.
I had to fight the smile off my face when she furiously exhaled. She was really mad wasn't she? Not that I blamed her. Personally I'd be pissed too if someone had broken into my room. But then that's what she got when she continued to go around pretending nothing was happening between us. She'd driven me to the edge and it'd forced me to take immediate and drastic action in hopes that it'd force her to make that move I knew she'd been contemplating for the last month and a half.
I felt her hand come up and brush my side before it slipped down to my wrist for the keys that hung limp in my right hand. I smirked a little to myself and tightened my grip on them. Her frustrated sigh was all the reward I needed for that one. She let go of the keys and and I heard her clothes shift a little on her body while she stepped back and crossed her arms.
"What do you want, Fritton?"
I scowled a little when she spat my name out like that. We'd become fast friends after the heist, once she realised I wasn't a complete moron and had quite the penchant for causing mayhem, and since our victory over my father and the bank she'd actually started treating me like one of the girls. So this was standard Kelly is extremely angry with you so watch your back behaviour. I let out a tired sigh. She seriously wanted to play this game again?
"A few things, Jones"
Her breathing hitched a little when I said her name and I couldn't help the wide grin that came out on my mouth. She'd never admit it but she loved the way I said her name. I could tell by the way her eyes always lit up without her consent while her lips would part into a tiny smile. Even now in her anger with my back to her I knew she'd be doing this.
"Being what?"
She took a step closer and I could feel the heat radiating off her onto my back, pulling me into that warm place only she could take me. My grip tightened even more on the keys in my hand as I fought off the urge to shiver under her. I smirked to myself and turned around, gently brushing myself against her as I did while meeting those black eyes that sent me into a trance every time I stared into them. Her smile was murderous but those beautiful midnight eyes held none of the anger her body was screaming at me. If anything they voiced their own shout that rang louder with me than her body ever could.
She raised her hand and held it out palm open with an amused smile as an impatient glint scratched the surface of her black eyes. I gave her a playful smile and stepped back away from her, holding the keys out behind me. Kelly tilted her head at me and gave me what could only be described as the sexiest confused smile in the business. She looked down at the floor while I tried to get my breathing under control and she let out a deep sigh before stepping up to me, forcing me to dance back away from her. She smirked at my jumpy reaction and kept coming at me, laughing a little under her breath as she tried sneaking her hand around me to grab the keys. I was so lost in the game I forgot about the open roof ledge until her hands snapped out to pull me back. I felt a gentle laugh rock through her as she stepped back and moved her hands down to my wrists, lightly brushing my skin with her thumbs so that a shiver rolled up my back and made me breathe heavier. Kelly's smirk widened then and she slowly traced the veins in my left wrist with her index finger.
"So now you're out of options... Wanna give me my keys back?" Her tone had dropped down to a quiet low one and I struggled to remember why we were still talking.
She slowly looked up as she said it and met my eyes with her dark ones while a challenging smirk flew across her mouth. A thousand words bubbled at the front of my mind, screaming to be released on her but I couldn't find my voice. As usual Kelly had stolen it, leaving me completely lost. I shook my head at her and she shrugged.
"Oh well, your loss"
Her fingers left my skin and she turned away towards the door with a small smile. I frowned at her and let her go two steps before the curiosity got the better of me and I grabbed her wrist to pull her back. She looked back at me surprised for a second before looking down at my hand like she wanted to snap it off. I took a deep uncertain breath, feeling an apology work it's way up into my throat. She beat me to it though with an amused laugh before she raised her hand to my neck. My brain threatened to explode. Just the feel of her skin on mine was sending me crazy! Kelly looked down at me thoughtfully and stepped up closer so that her torso lined up with mine. I shot her a questioning look but she ignored it and twirled her finger around one of my brown locks with a thoughtful smile that made me wonder what she was thinking about.
"You know, I think you look better with curls"
I felt my eyebrows dip with confusion and I jumped a little when her other hand came up to the other side of my neck, gently tapping a quick beat on my skin. It took me a few seconds to realise she was tapping in time with my heart and I looked up at her with a small blush threatening to surface on my cheeks.
Kelly leant even closer and dropped a hand down to my waist, gently thumbing my waistcoat before sliding her fingers down my wrist to the keys. Her eyes stayed glued on mine. That's when I figured out what she was doing. Trying to distract me with her charms so she could get her keys back. I pulled my hand back away from her creeping fingers and let out a soft laugh at her.
"Do I look like Flash?" She grinned at that and stepped forward with me when I moved back for space. Her hand snaked around my back to pull me against her.
"Luckily for me, no"
I seriously was starting to lose it over that low voice of hers. My hands nervously slid up to her shoulders and stroked the pale skin I'd been dreaming about for the past few months. She quietly laughed to herself like she knew what I was thinking but she definately had no idea. She seriously didn't have a clue what she was doing to me. Kelly shivered slightly under my touch and I smiled, she felt the same way then? I hoped so otherwise what I was about to do would have me kicked out of this place quicker than I could say Trinski. I pulled her closer into me, feeling myself swell with confidence when she didn't push me away. In fact she did the complete opposite. One of her hands moved down to my waist and gently tucked me up against her, while the other moved up to cup my left cheek.
"What exactly were you after, Annabelle?"
I shivered and listened to her laugh to herself at my shyness as she bent her head down to mine, a smug smile fixing itself in place on her lips. I forced my eyes up away from them and looked up into her dark eyes again, reading the want pulse through them before she had a chance to cover it up behind her usual cool and collected gaze. I bit my lip and watched her smile drop a few inches while her eyes started to burn again. My brain was working overtime just looking at her and before I knew what I was doing and whether or not I should question myself I'd stretched up to her mouth.
Now I'd only kissed a few people in my time but Kelly wiped all those innocent touches away with one sweep of her mouth on mine. She didn't push me away like I feared she would. Instead she pulled me tighter against her and immediately took charge off the kiss, leading me in a way that set my heart sprinting in my chest. Her lips tasted so soft and warm under mine and the way they moved over me was just mind blowing. It made me wonder if she kissed everyone like this or if this was a special side of her only I was being given access to see. I certainly wasn't complaining either way.
She pulled back after a while, eyes closed and hands restraining me while she bent her head forward against mine. My hands came up to hers on my neck and a smile twitched in the corners of her mouth. I knew what was happening. She was fighting with herself. She wanted this just as much as I did but the stubborn head girl part of her was arguing that it wasn't right.
"Kel-"
"Don't. Just shut up for a sec, yeah" I nodded and waited for her to make her decision, running my hungry eyes all over her determined smile while I admired the controlled concentration running through her expression.
I could practically read the questions flying through her head; Am I mad? Is she serious? Could I get away with this? What will the other girls think? Will her crazy aunt kill me? How is she that freaking great at kissing? Okay so I made up the last one but who knows, it could be hidden in there somewhere behind her closed eyes. Kelly was full of surprises like that.
Her thumbs brushing along my cheekbones brought me out of my thoughts and snapped my attention back to her. She opened her eyes and stared down at me, searching me for some sort of answer. I smiled up at her and gently stroked her cheek, feeling myself burn with want when she closed her eyes again and leant into my hand.
"I can't"
I moved my hand down and tried to hide the disappointment in my eyes. Not that I needed to. Kelly wasn't even looking at me. She was glaring down at the floor as if she were mentally screaming at the girls below. Because they were the real reason stopping her.
"Its okay. I'm just gonna.." I looked away when her eyes snapped back to me and sighed, "Yeah, so um...keys.."
I held them out for her but she ignored my hand and continued staring at me. I started to move backwards when her grip tightened on me suddenly and she let out a small resigned groan before pulling me flush against her.
"You're not going anywhere, Fritton"
My heart thumped madly in my chest. And she definitely felt it because she let out another low moan before quickly dipping her mouth back to mine. A million thoughts stuttered through my head while she pulled me tighter against her, mainly whether she'd gone crazy. Her hands rolled down to my back and gently slipped underneath my shirt making me forget whatever it was I'd been thinking about. I pulled her tighter against me to let her know she wasn't close enough yet and she smiled under my mouth before walking herself backwards. I stepped with her, not wanting to lose contact with her while stars flew behind my closed eyes at the feel of her scratching into me.
Kelly's left hand left my back and gently touched mine on her neck, quickly extracting the keys from my grip. She laughed a little when I tensed. I couldn't help it but I waiting for her to leave now she got what she'd come for. She moved her face back and brushed a kiss up my cheek before leaning down to my ear with an amused sigh.
"I didn't come up here for the keys, Belle" I saw her hand flick out away from her and heard the sound of metal scraping on the floor. I frowned, confused. She'd thrown them down? Then...
"I want you"
A pleasant tremor rolled through me when her low husky voice came back, followed swiftly by her lips pressing on my neck.
"But you said.."
"Are you seriously going to argue?" She breathed into my neck and I quickly shook my head and brought my hands up to her short raven hair, smiling widely to myself when her lips buried themselves back into my skin.
