Heartbeats

Okay. I haven't done any uploading in a week or two so I thought I should release the next chapter. This one is about Ella and Topher. This chapter takes place at the same time as Leonard and Scarlett but in their point of view. Also I changed the rating because this chapter should contain some sexual content. So read at your own risk. After the next one it should be over. But for now enjoy .

Meanwhile after their meal Ella and Topher drove home. They went to Topher's house for the night because Ella has never seen it before. Ella however still had some concern for Scarlett.

"That was fun wasn't it honey?" Topher asked Ella. "Yeah. I'd say so." Ella replied trying her best to look happy. "Is something wrong?" Topher asked. "Well. Earlier I saw a few things. You know how Leonard didn't show up to the restaurant?" Topher thought for a second and remembered that he said he was going to make it but he never saw him.

"Yeah. I'm aware about that. I also would like to question Scarlett leaving." He replied. Ella sighed. "Dave showed up and tried flirting with me." Topher looked a little confused and a little suspicious. "Did you tell him about me?" "I did. However he said I should dump you and be with him." She managed to complete her sentence.

"What!" Topher nearly yelled. "Can I finish please?" The princess asked. "Yeah. I'm sorry." Topher sighed. "I told him no. But then he got kind of vigorous so Scarlett stepped in." Topher nodded. "I get it. And did he yell at her?" "Yes." Ella said in a sad tone. "He doesn't realize her level of sensitivity."

Topher's phone vibrated but he ignored it. "Are you going to get that?" Ella asked him. "I can wait." Topher replied. "What happened next?" "Scarlett ran away crying, Leonard came in and I saw them arguing and the last thing I see is Leonard running after her." Ella started to cry. "Hey. Calm down. I'm sure they're okay now." Topher hugged her. Ella was trying to contain her voice. "I hope so." She said. "Can I do a few things and then get back to you?" He asked. "Sure." Ella replied. "Yeah you go ahead and make yourself comfortable." Topher walked out of the room.

In his bedroom he made the bed and got into his pajama pants. After he was done with that he looked at his phone to see what he'd missed. "I have Scarlett now, she's okay and at her house. So don't worry and make sure Ella knows." –Leonard. "Babe!" Topher exclaimed. "Yeah?" She asked. "Scarlett and Leonard are fine now." He said in an excited tone. "Really?" She asked. Topher ran back to the living room.

"Yep. See!" He shows her the text. "All right then! I hope they have a good night." Ella replied. "On the same note we should have a good night. That is if you want to sleep here for the night." Topher blushed slightly after he spoke but he knew he wouldn't regret it.

"You want me to spend the night with you?" She asked. "Yeah. I mean now that we're in a relationship I think we should spend nights together." Topher said happily. "Are you in?" He asked. "I'd be more than happy prince. We might as well start now." She hummed. "Then it's settled. Let's go in."

After they'd brushed their teeth and washed their hands they got in the bed and got very comfy. Topher removed his shirt and then lied on his back with his hands behind his head and Ella was lying on top of Topher resting her ear over his chest. "Mm." Ella hummed to herself as Topher rested his arm on Ella's back. "What are you humming to?" Topher asked. "I'm enjoying the sound of your heartbeat." She said sweetly.

Topher blushed once he realized what she was doing. He didn't care but this still made him nervous. "Ah. It's increasing." She said with her eyes closed. "Well duh. How am I supposed to react when an adorable girl is right next to me? Not take any effect to my mood?" He joked. Ella giggled. "It is a very soothing sound to my ears." She said quietly.

Topher was slightly confused. "Don't all hearts do the same thing?" He questioned. "Don't they all have similar sound?" "Not necessarily." She replied. "You're heartbeat is special because it reacts to my presence." Ella smiled lightly. "That's true. My heart belongs to you and only you." Topher said still blushing.

"Wow. It's kind of loud and deep." She says. "Well that's kind of obvious. Right?" He asked. Ella hummed one more time and lifted her head up. "Mine is the same way to you Topher." She said sweetly. "It is?" He asked anticipating her next move. "Yes it is." She replied as she removed her nightgown leaving her in her bright red bra. Topher was now blushing so much his face felt like it was burning. Not as much as his waste did but still he felt it.

After she took it off he lied back down beside him. "Would you like to hear it?" Topher was stammering. "Well I've never really done this before. I'm not sure." Ella chuckled. "Don't be shy. You know you want to." She winked at him. *Damn. * Topher thought to himself. She was right. He wanted to but he was really shy at this point. "Okay." He replied as he repositioned himself.

As soon as he laid his ear over her chest he immediately lost his shy feeling. Ella's heart was thumping fast and loud. It was very soothing to Topher and it seemed like it was singing to him. "What do you think my prince?" Ella was blushing at this. She realized Topher hadn't looked nervous anymore. "It's a really pretty heart from an even prettier girl." Topher said. He couldn't stop smiling right now. "Thank you." She replied.

After one minute Topher removed his ear from her chest. "Did you enjoy that?" She asked. Topher nodded feeling a little drowsy after that. "Heartbeats are the main symbol of romance you know?" She asked. "They are?" Topher lifted his head back up. "Of course they are. You see when you're feeling bored or neutral it doesn't change. But when you know you love someone your heart tries to tell you that. The faster and louder it goes means you love that person more and more." She smiled at him while he was relaxing.

"I've never thought of it that way." He replied. "Well that's the way I've always known it as." She hummed. Topher yawned and said, "You know? I think I know how to make them increase." He managed to say. "You do?" She asked.

"Huh?" Topher flinched. *Oh dammit! * Topher thought to himself. "Never mind." Ella gave him a bit of a satisfying grin. "What did you say?" "You weren't supposed to hear that!" Topher nearly yelled. Ella froze for a second. "What was it?" She asked calmly. Topher's face turned red due to his blush. "Well. I said I think we can make them go faster." He said.

Ella already knew what he was thinking. But she wanted to get him to say it himself. "What did you have in mind?" She asked. "Look I didn't notice I was saying-" "Relax." Ella had cut him off. "It's okay to be shy Topher. Is your serum wearing off?" Topher knew he loved Ella and the serum has lost some of its effects. "What do you mean?" He asked. "I mean earlier you just wanted to be with me and didn't care who heard."

Topher thought for a second and realized she was right. But he also knew that even if it had he wouldn't lose Ella. "I'm not sure what hit me." He said. Ella just hugged him and snuggled back to his heart. "If you accidently say something it's fine. I won't judge or think less of you." She said quietly. "Are you sure?" He asked. "Yeah. You can tell me anything." She reassured him. "Alright here it goes!" Topher inhaled deeply. "Ella I wanted to make love with you." His face returned to its red state. "Sex wise?" She asked him. "Well… yeah." Topher looked down after saying that.

"I'd be delighted." She replied. "You want to do it now?" "Well…" Topher did not see this coming. "I think if we're going to do it we should go slowly." He said. "Fine." She accepted. "I think we should start tomorrow." He said. "That's okay with me." She laid back down on Topher's chest. "Good then it's settled." Topher sighed. He wasn't sure he was quite ready for it yet but if Ella was ready he didn't care what he felt.

Okay maybe I haven't gotten to the sexual part yet. But I assure you it's coming soon. I hope you enjoyed this chapter. :)
