Chapter 3 – Sam POV
I reached Emily's house and saw that the lights were off. Normally Emily stayed up to wait for me but today, she was asleep. Surprising maybe, but not totally unexpected. Even she knew what day it was today. Maybe she didn't want to face me.
I used my key to unlock the door and went to the bedroom. I saw her sleeping peacefully, curled up like a cat. Carefully, so as to not disturb her, I gently lay down next to her. I guess she realized that I was there cuz she pressed herself to me, her head on my chest. I wrapped my arms around her, never wanting to let her go. I kissed her on the forehead and that was when she opened her eyes. She shifted slightly so that she could look at me and I figured now was the time to apologize to her. "Emily, I'm…" I had just begun to apologize when she turned her face so that her back was towards me. So she knew that I was about to apologize to her. "Emily." I began again. She did not turn towards me. So I kept quiet, knowing she would look at me when she couldn't bear the silence anymore.
Emily POV
Sam was here and no matter how hard he tried to be discrete, it was nearly impossible with that 6 foot 7 body. As soon as he lay down, I put my head on his chest and he wrapped his arms around me. I loved it when he did that, his arms made me feel so safe and secure. He gently kissed my forehead and that was when I opened my eyes and shifted so that I could look at him. He started to apologize but I did not want him doing that so I turned away. He tried again but I did not turn back. So he gave up and fell silent. I hadn't seen Sam since yesterday and really wanted him to talk to me, just not to apologize. The silence was bothering me so I turned around, facing him again. But before he could say anything, I kissed him on the lips so that he wouldn't be able to speak. When my lips met his, I felt my body relax.
We carried on the kiss for as long as we could before we needed to stop and catch our breath. In the pretense of brushing my hair back, he lightly touched the scars on my face; I laughed and pecked him on the lips, knowing that the touch was his apology. He finally cracked a smile and I knew that there would be no more apologizing tonight. He pulled me towards him when I yawned and I peacefully fell asleep on top of him with my head on his chest and his arms wrapped around me, just the way I liked.
Hope you all enjoyed. Please review :) :)
