Month One
I sat on the couch, trying to read a book. I had no clue what the book was, but I needed something to do until Eli got home. I pushed some hair behind my ears, sighing as I threw the book on the floor. I looked at Eli's jumper on the end of the couch and took it, slipping into it. I felt his warmth around me, the intoxicating smell and right then I could imagine he was with me.
I heard the door fly open and then felt Eli's presence. I jumped off the couch and ran into the hallway, just as he had shut the door. He turned around and I could see the surprise on his face, as I threw myself into his arms. Luckily he caught me in time and I kissed him deeply.
"Blue eyes" He smirked. I smiled at that amazing smirk, making my toes curl. It had been a year since we've been back together and I was glad. Eli had gotten help and fixed himself up, then relentlessly aimed to get me back. He still limped from his broken leg and I knew he missed Morty but I loved him for it.
"Eli" I smiled, kissing him deeply. He carried me into the living room, which had all windows open.
"Did someone miss me enough to break into my apartment?" He joked, sitting down next to me and holding my hand. He was learning to be less possessive, but still enjoyed being close to me.
"Maybe" I smiled shyly.
"New question, did someone miss me enough to steal my clothes?" He smirked, pulling on his jumper.
"Maybe" I repeated.
"Tell me" He grinned, raising his hands.
"Don't you dare" I warned.
"Tickle Attack" He laughed, reaching to tickle my stomach.
Even though we we're in University, I still lived in my house away from Eli. I wanted to live with him, but I wasn't sure if I was ready or he was or if we both were. He had promised not to push the subject and it was entirely up to me, I had promised not to keep him waiting forever.
"No more" I gasped, almost falling off the black couch. In his apartment, the couch was the only black thing. He wasn't into bright colours, but he had blues and purples and reds. He was different, and now I could see the light touch his eyes. He still wore his rings and wrote slightly scary fiction, but it had no connection with his head or heart now.
"No more tickle" I laughed, pushing him.
"Okay okay" He laughed, pulling me into his arms and kissing my forehead carefully.
"So" He asks, "Why exactly are you in my apartment, besides the fact you missed me so much".
"Of course I missed you" I said carefully, "I just thought maybe we could spend some time together"
"I do enjoy spending time with you Blue eyes, but I promised I'd have dinner with my parents tonight" Eli admitted, looking like he thoroughly hated the idea.
"Not an open invitation?" I checked.
"Sure" He smiled, kissing me. The kiss still made my toes curl and my heart melt, it made me feel as if I was on fire. I got a small tug in my abdomen.
"Can I stay here tonight?' I asked, pulling away.
"Sure" Eli smiled, choosing to just hold me.
We sat there for like a few minutes and then I began to feel sleepy.
"I'll be right back" He smiled, laying me down on the couch. I just nodded, and heard Eli pad through the apartment. I heard him rummaging around in the cabinets, then the distinct thud. I was too sleepy to care as the darkness slowly grabbed me, it began pulling me down deeper. Eli interrupted sleep's hold over me as his voice snapped, pulling me back into my body.
He stood there, in the doorway to the living room. His eyes were angry and so was his posture, but his face just looked confused. He held his question in his hand, as if demanding an answer from me. Which he was.
"What the hell is this?" He said with calmness, holding a pregnancy test in one hand. A positive pregnancy test.
