Hi guys, sorry I haven't updated in a while I have had a lot of GCSE / School work to catch up on, but here's the next chapter. xxxxx
Chapter 21- The Next Step
A week and a half later, Sara was discharged from hospital and Gil had temporarily moved into her place to look after her. 'I'm really gonna take care of you,' Gil said as he and Sara arrived back at her place.
'I know you will Gil, I'm just glad that Hank's been charged so we can look to the future,' Sara replied.
Hank had been interviewed after Sara had given her statement; he confessed to Sara's attempted murder and was charged. He had applied for bail and the hearing had been scheduled for next week. Sara was getting more and more nervous, despite Gil's assurances that there was no way he was going to be granted bail. 'He won't get bail Sara,' Gil was saying. 'No court in the land would let an attempted murderer back out on the streets, I promise'.
'I hope you're right. I love you Gil,' Sara replied as she rested her head in Gil's lap.
'I love you too Sara,' Gil replied as he leant downwards kissed Sara softly on the lips.
About half an hour later, Sara took her head off Gil's lap and smiled at him. 'Do you fancy something to eat?' Gil asked.
'Why?' Sara replied.
'I thought I'd cook,'
'You cook?'
'Yeah sometimes, only for you though',
'Good,' Sara said.
'I tell you what, you go and have a bath and I'll sort out dinner,'
'OK,' Sara said as she got off the sofa and a thought suddenly occurred to her, 'Can I trust you not to burn down my kitchen?' she asked.
'Of course you can babe,' Gil replied and kissed Sara softly on the lips.
Sara relented and began to climb up the stairs. She trusted Gil and what's more, she loved him. She ran herself a nice relaxing bath and slid into the warm water.
Sara emerged from the bathroom about half an hour later. She shut the bathroom door behind her and she smelt something rather pleasant coming up from the kitchen. That's a first, Sara thought, Gil's cooking actually smells nice!
She changed her clothes and went downstairs. The meal was laid out on the table with rose petals sprinkled over the tablecloth. The lights had been dimmed and there were candles burning on the table. 'That smells nice,' Sara said as she entered the kitchen.
'I hope so,' Gil replied. 'Do you wanna take the wine through?'
'Yeah, OK,'
Gil handed Sara the wine bottle and brushed his hand over hers. This sent shivers up Sara's spine; she smiled at him as she left the kitchen. Gil followed Sara through to the dining room and put the wine glasses on the table. They both sat down and ate their meal. After they finished their meal, Gil took Sara's hand from across the table. 'You know how much I love you Sara,' he said as he gazed into her eyes.
'Yeah, I do Gil,' Sara replied as she got off her chair and went to sit on Gil's lap. 'Listen Gil, I've been thinking…' Sara started as she undid the top two buttons on Gil's shirt and traced circular patterns on his chest.
'What about honey?' Gil asked.
'How would you feel about moving in with me?'
Gil looked at Sara and smiled, 'I'd love to move in Sara,' he said.
Sara leant across and kissed Gil softly on the lips. Gil deepened the kiss and wrapped his arms around Sara's waist. They both pulled away and gazed into each other's eyes, 'let's take this upstairs,' Gil said.
Sara nodded as Gil picked her up; she wrapped her legs around him as he carried her upstairs.
Gil closed the bedroom door behind them and pinned Sara up against it, kissing her passionately on the lips. Sara undid Gil's shirt and discarded it on the floor. She wrapped her arms around Gil's neck and leant into him. Gil's hands made their way up Sara's back and found the zip on her dress, he undid it and the dress fell to the floor. Sara pushed Gil backwards until they both fell back onto the bed and he rolled her onto her back so that he was on top and moved his kisses from Sara's lips to her neck. Sara's hands wandered downwards and undid the belt of Gil's trousers and they fell to the floor. Sara and Gil slid under the covers, he pulled away from Sara and they exchanged smiles. Gil knew this was his cue and as he pushed himself inside her, she let out a gasp. 'Oh God Gil…don't stop now, please,' Sara moaned.
Sara's moans became louder and more frequent as the sheer passion began to take over. Gil's kisses moved from Sara's mouth and down to her breasts and he gently kissed and caressed them gently and lovingly. Gil kissed Sara passionately on the lips once more as his tongue explored her mouth, they climaxed almost together and Sara rested her head against Gil's chest. Gil wrapped his arms around Sara as she slowly went off to sleep.
