The smile on your face let's me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes saying you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says that you'd catch me whenever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all.
They were two smaller, slighter bodies, melting into each other and moving in sync
They were an image of lust, of passion, of all the things he had ever wanted from the blue-eyed girl
They were a mix of hot and cold, cool fingers running along a heated body
They were a tangle of limbs, wound closely together and not wanting to part
They were covered in a light sheen of sweat, their breaths coming in pants, their whispers not comprehendible
They are two hearts, dancing to a too-quick beat together
A pair of soft lips find another's, and they move roughly together
Fingers wind into hair
Tongues wrestle for dominance
Kisses are placed along curves and in hidden places
Hot breath blows against her stomach
Her body arches up against his
His smirk is defined on his lips
She leans up to kiss it off, tired of his games
He moves his lips down lower
Her breath catches in her throat
She lets out a breathy sigh
His green eyes travel up to find her brown ones
She gives him a weary smile
Before a low moan escapes her throat
Her nails scratch along his bare back
He moves back up to taste the sweetness of the skin on her neck
Her grip on him loosens
She brushes her long hair away from her neck
His tongue traces lines on it
Making the same, repeated motions
She nuzzles her face into his shoulder
Placing a gentle kiss on the skin there
His arms wrap possessively around her
Knowing she loves it when he calls her his
Unlike the blue-eyed girl
She presses closer against him
Her fingers clutching onto the back of his neck
He pulls away just a little
So he can place kisses along her face
She takes one of his hands
Leaving light kisses on his fingertips
She takes the hand of his she is holding
And places it over her chest
He can feel her rapid heartbeat against his palm
He takes one of her own hands
Placing it over the place where his heart should be
They lay there for a few moments
Silence covering them like a blanket
She says, "Don't deny that you have a heart.
I can feel it
And I know it beats for me."
He gives her a tired smile
Trying to reassure her of this
He moves his hand into her hair
Running it through the softness
That feels like silk against his touch
He pulls her up onto his chest
Burying his nose into her hair
Inhaling the scent of lilac and honey
That is so different from what he once knew
She drapes one arm around his waist
Leaving the other hand over his heart
She is tempted to say something more
Something she had felt for so long
But she was always so unsure
Of what he would say in return
Her heart races faster
Preparing itself for the words that she will say
She opens her mouth slowly
Waiting
At last she utters the most dangerous words she knows,
"I love you."
He isn't accustomed to saying it, much less hearing it
He always reserved the words for the blue-eyed girl
He knows in his heart he will always keep them for her
He is sure he feels the same way she does
But he has trouble getting the words out
She looks up at him now
Wanting to see what his reaction is
He stares back at her
Holding her gaze with an intensity
His lips pull back into a smile
A true, genuine smile
Something that startles her
It is a sight she hadn't seen before
And she knew that this was his way
Of showing he cared just as much
The look in his eyes proved it
They held an affection
A passion for her
A dash of neediness
And it's all she could ever ask for from him
He pulls her up closer to him
He cups her cheek in his hand
Rubbing his thumb along her skin gently
He holds her gaze
For what seems like centuries
It makes her heart want to burst
He smiles at her again
And presses his lips to her forehead
He leaves them there for awhile
His heart aching
He will always miss the blue-eyed girl
He will always want her
Always love her
But he cares greatly for this girl too
And even if he can't say the words yet
They both know the feelings between them are mutual
The whole world is against them
He finds it funny how nothing ever seems to work for him
But at this moment in time
All that mattered was one another
This felt completely right
Though in some ways wrong too
Neither of them care though
Neither of them want to care about that
All they can see is each other's smiles
Feel each other's warm skin
She knows she could never ask for anything better
He knows he is lucky to have her
And in time he will learn to tell her
The words she deserves to hear
Even though she doesn't really need to hear them
In order to feel them.
Author's Note: I don't know how exactly I feel about Eli being in love with Imogen, but I just randomly felt like writing some sort of Imogeli something or other. I hope you guys liked it. Don't kill me for it, please. Review? :)
