My Fair Lady 2

~Chapter 3~

I woke the next morning with my head next to Gordo's. At first I freaked out a little, because I forgot where I was. But once I reoriented myself (on the floor, in the living room, we're leaving for Minnesota today, Gordo's coming, etc…) I was fine. I must have just scooted over in my sleep, I realized. I made to get up and I noticed Gordo's hand resting on mine. Had I not noticed (or minded) this the whole night? Hmm.

I got up and started breakfast. Fifteen minutes later, Gordo still wasn't up. I hadn't seen any of the rest of my family, but they we're probably out last minute shopping and filling the car with gas like they always did before we left on a trip.

"Gordo!" I called. "Breakfast!" I set the table for two and put out our food.

"Gordo!" I called again. I walked back to the living room and found him curled in his sleeping bag, my pillow held firmly over his head. I laughed. "Come on, Gordo. I made breakfast." I crawled on hands and knees over to him and sat down. "Come on I whined, shaking him with one hand. I draped myself over him. "Gord-ooooo!" I waited. "I know you're awake," I teased.

"Yeah, but I don't want to get up. I just want to stay like this…with you."

Woo! Why am I blushing? Why am I blushing? Because I like lying with him like this, too?

My head was saying "Get off! Get off!" But for once I listened to my heart and stayed with him.

"Do you still love me, Gordo?" I asked after a few minutes. I thought I felt him tense beneath me.

"More than anything in the world," he answered truthfully.

See, now why can't a terrific guy like Gordo, who loves me more than anything else in the world, be in love with me? Why?

"And…you still love me?" he asked hesitantly, cautiously.

"With all my heart," I told him. I stretched my arms around and hugged him. True, it was an awkward hug, but he mumbled, "Mm," and took my hands.

He rolled over and I slid off the other way. He still held my hands. I hugged him again (don't know why. I'm weird that way) and he hugged me back, holding me close.

Now this I could totally go for.

It was just as I was moving to pull the strap of my tank top back up that Matt walked in and went, "Eeek! What are you doing?"
