Here's an actual update! To the person who said that asking for reviews ruins it for the reader, I agree in some ways, but I was only getting 1 review per chapter, so I didn't want to bother updating. At least I still update mine. ;)
This chapter is another fluff related filler, as I'm waiting until I get some good inspiration in regards to the Michael/Sian/Lorikki stuff. No idea when the next part will be, as I'm currently repainting my room, but I'm off work all week so it should be soon!
Again, thanks to JamesLuver for the constant reviews!
Yawning, I stretched out, my hand brushing Lorraine's smooth hair in the process. Hoping I didn't wake her up, I rolled over, facing her, watching her sleep. It was nice to see Lorraine just… Sleeping. Usually she was up at some crazy time in the morning working on a new business idea, or on the phone to one of her associates, but today she got a lie in. Today was our last day of the weekend before work, so she had earned it. We'd both have to face Michael, and Sian tomorrow, so I was really interested to see how it would go. One part of me was sure that Michael had changed since Sian was back, but another part of me was cautious. How could he go from supposedly loving Lorraine, to acting like nothing had ever happened because Sian was back? And what about those looks she always gave me and Lorraine, the looks of guilt? Anger? Did she know that Michael had an abusive past? There was so many questions left unanswered, but I could hardly go and ask her. I hated feeling like I was walking on egg shells around Michael, that one wrong move and he would go off on some sort of rant against me, Lorraine, or both of us. It wasn't fun when I had to tiptoe around Lorraine's feelings, and I certainly wasn't going to do it for someone who I didn't particularly like at the moment. Shaking the thoughts out of my head, I turned my attention to my sleeping girlfriend next to me, staring at her. Part of me wanted her to wake up, the other didn't. I didn't want to be caught staring, yet I was starting to feel slightly lonely, this house could be slightly chilling at times.
I knew I'd feel bad for it later, but I shook Lorraine slightly, moving closer to kiss her lips. One kiss, two, with the third one making her open her eyes, eyes that narrowed as soon as they saw my grin.
"Nik, fuck you. I was sleeping." She mumbled, her voice husky from sleep.
"You can fuck me if you like" I replied, allowing myself to use the cheesy suggestive line, fully knowing that she'd hate it.
I was right, she merely stuck her tongue out at me before rolling over in the bed, stealing the covers as she moved, exposing my body to the cold air of her bedroom. Shivering, I shuffled over, spooning her softly, casually moving my body back underneath the covers. She didn't protest, so I saw this as a good sign. Lorraine could never hold a grudge against me, even if it was 8am in the morning!
"I don't want to go back to Waterloo Road tomorrow… Don't you feel like something is wrong, Nik?" she mumbled from under the duvet, surprising me as I thought she'd gone back to sleep.
"I get what you mean… But we need to go in Lo, we basically run that school on our own these days."
"We're such a power couple…" I heard her reply, giggling softly, causing me to wrap my arms around her, pulling her closer.
"I love it when you're like this. You always say the right things…"
"No… No I don't. Don't say that, I don't. I nearly split us up because I speak so much shit…"
I didn't reply, I knew she wouldn't listen to whatever it was I was going to say. Instead, I just kissed the back of her head, running my hands up and down her body, telling her that it's ok. I wanted her to return it, I wanted to repeat last night. I wanted to hear her scream my name, only mine. I wanted to make her feel better, get her mind on other things, but I knew that it wasn't the time right now. I'd have to think of another way to de-stress her, and right now staying in bed just sounded like the best possible idea. I'd make her some breakfast later, but as soon as I felt her snuggle a little closer to me, I knew that we were fine where we were for the time being.
Tilting her head up, I kissed her softly, just once before pulling back to look at her, my eyes flicking from her eyes to her lips, with hers following. Soon, the temptation became all too clear, and we both leant in, our lips colliding with one another's, both of us allowing the sensation of each-others lips on our own to overcome us.
It wasn't long before our hands were wandering, going to places that we really shouldn't go to when we have other things to do, but that wasn't on either of our minds. Not today. So we carried on, off into our own unimaginable love.
