Chapter 13.

*KATIE'S POINT OF VIEW*

The rest of my day with Toby was wonderful. We spent the daylight hours on the sofa- Toby editing some videos on his Macbook Pro and me with my head in his lap watching him. It was so nice to just sit in silence with him...it was a comfortable silence with great company. When Toby concentrated I noticed he always bit his lip and I found that extremely cute and attractive.

By evening Toby unlocked his iPhone to check the time. "Would you like to stay here tonight?" he asked. "I would love to" I replied grinning. Toby seemed to like this idea and leaned down to kiss me on the lips and I returned the favour.

The evening had drawn to night time. Me and Toby spent our evening making a pizza from scratch to eat and it was hilariously good fun. It made me think deeply about when the last time I had real fun like this before Toby and I realised it had been years. The overwhelming attachment I now felt towards Toby created butterflies inside me and I realised this was what it was like to be in love. Never wanting to be without him ever again made me realise what true love was...and I wanted to prove that love to him.

Me and Toby decided we were fine sleeping with one another in the same bed. We decided it was unnecessary for one of us to sleep on the sofa after last night and we were both more than happy with this. As we got in to bed I instantly curled up underneath Toby's chin and rested my head on his chest.

I took a deep breath and bravely ran my finger along the seams of Toby's pyjama top at the bottom of it. Slowly I put it in my grip and lifted it up slowly showing Toby's pale yet toned stomach.

"What are you doing?" he quizzed me.

"I want to prove I love you" I answered. Before Toby had time to reply I quickly leaned up and kissed him. At first Toby wasn't sure how to react; just led there blindly. But soon he returned the kiss and we lay there embracing.

The kiss deepened and I swung my leg over his torso to straddle him. I sat on top of him pressing my body as much as I could to his. I returned my grip on the bottom of his shirt again but this time pulled it up fully. Toby helped me to pull off his body and he swung it on the floor before kissing me again.

Slowly he did the same to my shirt. I didn't care because he had already seen me topless and I let him toss my shirt to the floor with ease.

Our bodies pushed together more and the feel of his bare skin rubbing against my own was wonderful. Sensations burst throughout my entire body and I couldn't think of a moment of when I was more happy than this.

I tried to lean up to unclip my bra but Toby grabbed my arm quickly to stop me. "Don't" he told me carefully. "I love you, but you said you want to take this slowly. And that I plan to". I pulled a confused look on my face and Toby gently pushed me off him so I was by his side again. Toby passed me my top and I put it on disappointedly feeling like a child who had just got told off. Toby then picked up his shirt and put his own back on.

"I wanted to prove my love to you" I said in sadness.

Toby laughed softly and tucked me under his arm in a long cuddle. "You have nothing to prove Katie. I know you love me and I love you too. And for that love I am willing to take this slowly and when the time does comes, make it really special. I don't want to rush something so important to me"

I finally understood. "Okay" I answered smiling.

Toby kissed my forehead. "Goodnight Katie"

"Goodnight Toby" I replied.
