PART 2

Still holding hands we arrived at her door. She turned to me, as if she wanted to be sure I wanted to come in. I gave her a smile that told her that I did. She looked at me adoringly and gave me a sweet kiss. I was feeling nervous, but very comfortable at the same time. It felt like I had known her for years, but there was still the excitement of getting to find out everything about her.

She opened her door and she entered. "Welcome to my humble home." she said shyly as she stepped aside to let me in.

As I entered the room I looked around and took it in. There were two beds, each on another side of the room, but there was no one else there. The left side of the room was really neat and cleaned up, the other was, well, not. Not a complete mess, but it certainly wouldn't win the award for best house keeping. I had a feeling that would be Katie's side of the room. My suspicions were confirmed when Katie walked towards the bed on the right.

"Please excuse the mess, I wasn't really expecting anybody." she said apologetically.

"That's ok." I assured her. "You should see my room."

She smiled. "Do you want something to drink?" she wondered.

"Yes, thanks." I answered.

She opened up a little refrigerator and took out a bottle of coke. She held it up. "Coke alright?"

I nodded. "Sure."

She poured two glasses full. "Make yourself at home. My roommate is out, I think she's over at her boyfriend's or something." she said, before putting the coke back in the fridge.

There was a desk with a chair in front of it, and besides that, there was the bed. I decided to go for the bed. It looked a lot more comfortable than the chair, and I wanted to sit with Katie. And well, you can't do that on a chair, now can you?

So I sat down, as she approached with the drinks and handed one over to me. I took a sip of it while she sat down next to me. We sat there silent for a moment and I looked up at her. I studied her face. It was still beautiful, more so than ever. I stared at her adoringly, taking in everything that I could. She noticed my staring.

"What?" she wondered smiling.

I put down my drink. "I just like the view." I said.

She put down her drink as well. "Oh, really?" she asked teasingly as she moved closer to me. She raised her hand and brought it up to my cheek, tracing my features with her fingers. I loved the feeling and I closed my eyes. She continued stroking me gently.

"Mine is not so bad either." she whispered.

I heard her and I wanted to say something, but no words left my mouth nor could I open my eyes. I was bewitched by her fingers on my skin, tracing my cheeks and my lips slowly, teasingly, lovingly. Her hands moved towards my neck and I felt a chill go through me. Suddenly I felt her lips on mine, the softest kiss ever, but I was going crazy. I moved my hand and put it around her waist, pulling her closer, needing more contact as I let out a soft deep moan. She willingly gave in to my pull. We kissed each other tenderly, placing soft kisses on the other's lips. I felt her tongue trailing my bottom lip and my belly was dancing all over the place. She was driving me totally nuts and this was only a kiss. This was nothing I had ever felt before. I felt heat, chills, electricity, everything. At times our lips were barely touching each other, the kisses were so soft, but she was driving me out of my mind. Our kiss slowly intensified as our breathing became heavier.

I didn't even realize how it happened, but suddenly we were no longer sitting anymore, but stretched out on the bed. I manoeuvred myself partly on top of her, as my hands found their way to her sides. They slipped underneath her shirt and she grasped at this contact of skin on skin. I kissed her passionately, never wanting to stop. Part of me feared this was going way to fast and we would be doing something we shouldn't be doing just yet, but another part of me didn't care. This just felt too right.

Suddenly, she pulled a 180 on me and I found myself on my back, with her hovering above me. She looked at me with eyes full of passion, desire, and hunger for more. She kissed me again, and her mouth travelled to my jaw line. I moaned softly as she placed tender yet hungry kisses and travelled down towards my neck. I found myself grasping for air and I pulled her up again to feel her lips on mine. She eagerly came back to me we kissed with a passion I never thought could ever exist. Her whole weight was on my body and I loved the feeling of her. It was like it belonged there, right where it was. Two bodies, made to fit together.

I knew where this was heading. If we continued in this pace, we'd be doing naughty stuff any minute now. And just because this felt so right, I knew I wanted to wait. Wait for the perfect moment, wait till I had some more time to look forward to it, because then it would be completely perfect. I wanted this so badly, that is why I knew we should stop now.

So I gently pushed her on her side, guiding the kiss, slowing it down a bit. Katie anticipated what I was doing and willingly gave in to the slower pace. The passion was still very much present, and despite the need we both obviously felt, we somehow managed to slow things down. I gently pulled back and looked her in her eyes. She looked at me and I saw in her eyes that she understood. I felt like she knew why I pulled back, not because I didn't want to be with her, but the exact opposite.

"That was… That was…." she stumbled. "Wow!"

I smiled and put a stray of hair behind her ear. "This feels so good." I whispered.

"I know." she answered. "I feel like I've known you forever, but yet there's still so much to find out."

"And we will. Let's not rush into anything." I said.

"I know, I got a little carried away before, I'm sorry." she said shyly.

"Hey." I cupped her face gently with my hand. "Don't be. I kinda lost it myself, too. It would just be so much better if we waited."

She smiled and nodded. "You are absolutely right. I didn't want to rush you into anything. You just drove me kinda crazy there."

She gave me a soft kiss. "So let's just stick with the cuddling and the kissing for now. I'm totally fine with that."

"I'm in favour of the cuddling and kissing." I answered with a smile. "I could never get enough of that." To prove my point I kissed her again.

It lasted a good while, and after we pulled back, we gazed into each others eyes for minutes, adoringly. Man, I still couldn't believe I got so lucky. The first minute I see an angel, the next she's in my arms. I am so falling in love. And so fast. I could only hope she felt the same but somehow I knew she did. This all felt so natural, as if this was what I had been waiting for all this time. So I felt confident enough to ask her about it, something I normally wouldn't do myself.

"So," I started, "when I come back home tomorrow, my sister and my friends are gonna do the third degree on me."

She giggled. "Yeah, I guess they will."

"Do I tell them I have a girlfriend?" I asked a little hesitantly.

She looked up at me. "Well, I think you should tell them you do." she smiled. "Because I know I really want you as mine."

A grin spread on my face. "Well, I think that works out well then because I wouldn't mind having you as mine either."

"Well, we seem to have our stories synchronized then." she said with a grin. "What do you say we slip under the covers and I can have the pleasure of holding you for the rest of the night?"

I chuckled. "On one condition."

"Anything." she answered immediately.

"As long as there's gonna be kissing involved, I'm fine with the you holding me part." I said with a grin.

She grinned right back and kissed me again quickly before hopping out of bed and walking over to her drawer. She took out two PJ's, and gave one to me. "There you go." She said cheerfully.

"Thanks." I said. I decided not to change in the same room as her, because I figured seeing her change outfits would upset my heartbeat somewhat so I went to the bathroom in the hallway and changed outfits there. When I got back to her room she was already changed as well, and already under the covers. When she saw me walk in, she shifted.

"I warmed up your side for you." she said.

I chuckled. "I don't think I need a lot of warming up."

She had a single bed, so there wasn't a lot of space. Not that I minded though, because that gave me all the more reason to snuggle up against her, so that's exactly what I did.

We laid there comfortable in each others arms for minutes, while she was gently stroking my hair.

"You really are beautiful." she whispered in my ear.

"Oh, you're checking me out?" I asked playfully.

"Can you blame me? Look at you. You're incredible. I can't believe my luck." she traced my face with her fingers.

"I'm the lucky one." I answered. "First time I saw you, I thought you were an angel. I was sure you had to be straight, or taken, or both. Now look at us."

I couldn't help a smile appear on my face. I really felt like the happiest girl in the world. So many people, and I was the one holding her. I wrapped my arms tightly around her and I pressed my lips on hers. She tightened the embrace and we lost ourselves in a passionate kiss that went on for what seemed like hours. We didn't notice the sun coming up, we only had eyes for each other. After a long time we finally drifted off to sleep, laying contently in each others arms.
