Heartaches
Chapter 41
By KellyQ
A soft scent reached Carly's nose. The aroma smelled like lilac. She couldn't help exhale and sigh, feeling her body relax. Everything felt heavenly to her and she wanted stay where she was. A hand reached out and touched the side of her face. Carly leaned into the hand, as the thumb graced along her pink moist lips. A moan came from the back of Carly's throat. She opened her eyes to see that the hand belonged to Misty.
She had moved Carly from the couch to her queen size bed. Green eyes stared into slanted hazel-blue eyes. Carly squeaked with shock when she realized how close Misty was. The beautiful model pulled back and chuckled.
"Sorry about that ..."
Carly calmed down. "What time is it?"
"It's only 4:50 PM," Misty answered.
Carly squeaked again. "I've been a sleep half of the day? I'm sorry!"
Misty raised a brow. "Don't be. You looked like you needed some rest anyways."
A small smile made its way to Carly's lips. "Thanks, I guess. I'll best be going."
"I'll take you home, if you want," Misty offered.
"You ... you don't have to do that! I can get myself home!"
Misty studied Carly for a moment. "Would you rather stay and get some rest?"
Carly looked down. "If that's okay with you."
A smile made its way to Misty's lips. "I'd like that, actually. I like having you around, Carly." A blush appeared across her cheeks. She does look cute when she gets all shy, Misty thought.
"You - you don't think I'm annoying?" Carly asked, finally looking at the model.
Misty smiled again and shook her head. "What makes you think that? I don't think you're annoying. You're a good person, Carly, and don't let people tell you otherwise."
All Carly did was nod her head in response. She wasn't the only one who was responding mutely; after calling Crow and Martha Yusei was now in the shower with Jack. He gently scrubbed his boyfriends back. Yusei always liked Jack's touch. It was a type of feeling that have him reassurance.
Jack was the same way, but different. He felt drawn to Yusei's strong personal aura that was calm, soothing, and soft. Jack also had to admit that Yusei was sexy and attractive.
By this point, they were getting dressed for bed, as Jack tried to get Yusei in bed, so he could sleep. He wasn't the only one trying to get someone in bed, Martha was also trying to get the kids ready for bed.
Leo walked into the bathroom to see Rally's silhouette through the shower door, washing himself. Leo turned red. He pulled back, and ran to his room, breathing hard. Luna walked in and raised a brow.
"Are you okay?" she asked.
Leo immediately shook the feeling off and laughed nervously. "Of course I am!"
"You can use the bathroom now," came Rally's voice. The twins turned to see him standing there, brushing his curly-red hair. He was wearing a silky blue bath robe.
Rally turned and made his way to the room. He looked at the comb and pulled the loose hair off it. Rally walked over to the trash and let the loose hair fall into the trash. He turned and walked over to the bed when there was a knock at the door.
"It's me, Martha. May I come in?"
Rally smiled. "Sure."
Martha opened the door and she walked in, closing it behind her. "How do you like it here?"
"It's a great place," Rally answered, watching her walk up, and sat on the bed.
Martha smiled warmly. "I do try and make sure that kids are safe and happy."
Rally nodded his head and heaved his bag on the bed. Martha got to her feet and headed to the door. Rally plucked out his blue nightgown.
"Uhh ... Martha ... do you think you can help me?" Rally asked, holding up his nightgown.
The old woman studied him for a moment and smiled. "Sure."
Martha walked up, took the dressy nightgown as Rally removed the bath robe. He placed it on the bed and then held up his arms. Martha held up the nightgown over Rally's head, and the dressy nightgown spiraled down his body. Martha gave the material a gentle tug, so it would go over his head. She reached behind and helped Rally straighten out the back.
Once Martha pulled back, Rally turned and pulled the covers back. He climbed in as Martha took hold of the blanket and pulled it all the way to his neck. Rally closed his eyes, allowing the warmth consume him.
It wasn't long before he woke up to a knock at the door. Rally sat up and blinked, wondering who would want to chat at this late hour.
"Just a moment, please!" he said, after the second knock.
Rally pulled the covers back, got out of bed and put his slippers on. He then made his way to the desk where his shawl was draped over the chair. Once he had it over his shoulders, Rally turned and walked to the door and opened it. He blinked again to see that it was Leo. He looked depressed and sad.
Rally studied him for a moment. "What's wrong?"
"I didn't mean to wake you ... but I couldn't sleep. You wouldn't mind some company, would you?"
Rally smiled. "No. Not at all. Come in."
He stepped aside for Leo to enter. Once Leo was in, Rally closed the door. He adjusted his shawl and made his way over to the bed and sat next to Leo.
"So ... uhh ... what do you want to do?" Rally finally asked, trying to make light conversation.
Leo fell back on the bed. "I don't know. Dexter and I would often sneak out and make our way through the town." He chuckled at the memory. "But we would end up getting in trouble by Martha when she found out." Then an idea came to him. "How about the two of us sneak out and have some fun!" Rally couldn't help but cring at the thought. Leo blinked a few times. "Or not."
"It's not that it wouldn't be fun. I'd just like to get some sleep right now."
Leo sat up and looked away. "Hey, Rally? Is it alright if we ... share the same bed? Dexter and I did that sometimes."
"Sure."
Leo beamed and watched Rally place his shawl on the chair and then joined him under the covers.
