I felt something… I slightly opened one eye, barely enough for anyone to know that I'm awake. Eli was poking my cheek gently. I tried not to smile as I thought up a little plan.
"Carly?" He whispered. I turned over so we were hugging, sort of, while lying down on the couch. I peeked through my left eye. He was on his side, like me, with his head in his hand, staring down at me. I smushed my face into his chest and breathed in, still pretending to be asleep. He chuckled. "Carly."
"Hamunamashafa.." I groaned. I usually make those sounds when my dad wakes me up for school and I only got 4 hours of sleep. I stretched and purposely, playfully, punched him in the face. He smiled and leaned over and grabbed a bottle of warm water from the end table, taking a sip. I looked up at him and grabbed his face. He furrowed his brow and made a funky face as I smacked a huge kiss on his cheek.
He smiled and I tried to kiss me, "No!"
"What?" He looked alarmed.
"I have morning breath…" He rolled his eyes as I ran into the bathroom. Of course Elijah Goldsworthy didn't have morning breath. He was probably taking mints before he woke me up.
"Hey, you know what's funny?" He called from the kitchen. I came out with a toothbrush in mouth.
"Wha?" I said my best while brushing.
"Twenty-four hours ago we were acquaintances." I pondered that for a moment, going back into the bathroom and rinsing out my mouth.
"And now?" I walked up to him slowly.
"Now," He said from behind me, starting to kiss my neck. I felt my eyes flutter as he pulled my hair back and put it all over my right shoulder. He reached the spot where I had a scar, I had fallen off my rooftop during an epic snowball fight last winter, and I shivered. He stopped and turned me around, gently pressing his forehead against mine, "Do you like peanut butter on your bagels?"
"Oh, God yes! I love it!" I jumped up and down.
"Good," He pulled out the creamy peanut butter.
"I love creamy! We are so taste-compatible!" I giggled. He smiled and popped a bagel into the toaster while I took a butter knife, scooped out some peanut butter, and put it on my finger, gently licking it off.
"Are you trying to seduce me?" He smirked.
"Because peanut butter is sexy," I rolled my eyes, holding out my finger for him to lick it. He did and then made a funny face, "What?"
"There's… peut buta on the rof of my moff." He said laughing. I grinned.
"What?" I bit my lip trying not to laugh at him.
"There was peanut butter on the roof of my mouth," He swallowed the rest of it. The bagel popped out, and he put another one in as I prepared the food. I held up the peanut-butter-bagel for him to take a bite. He took a teeny weenie bite, but I put way too much peanut butter on it, so there was peanut butter on the side of his mouth. He went to grab a napkin but I stopped him. He looked confused as I leaned up and licked his face. His eyes were wide as his mouth started to curl into a smirk. He then fed me the bagel and purposely smeared it all over my cheek. I put my hand into the jar and took out a whole glob of peanut butter. Then I thought, peanut butter is too sticky to be thrown. So I smacked his cheek, spreading the creamy peanut butter all over his nose, his chin and his neck. He got a handful and spread it all over my arms. I smiled, moving in to hug him, "No way!"
"Come here!" I chased him around the kitchen.
"Peanut butter monster!" He yelled as he opened the kitchen door and ran out into the backyard. I grabbed some paper towels and wiped off all the peanut butter, taking extras to clean him off too.
"Eeeee-liiii!" I called from the doorway. He was re-tying the tire swing to the tree, his legs dangling from the branch ten feet up. I could faintly hear the radio playing on a little Jurassic player in the corner of the room on a shelf. I turned it up. As I looked at Eli tying the knot the perfect song started to play. I started to hum, "I feel so untouched, and I want you so much that I just can't resist you…"
"Whatcha singing?" He called from the yard.
"Untouched by The Veronicas." I grabbed the player and took it outside with me, setting it down on his picnic table. As he jumped down from the trees his long bangs flew up and were brushed back by the wind as he jogged over to me. I grabbed the paper towels and started to wipe his face and neck. He scrunched his nose and shut his eyes as I scrubbed his cheek. When I was done there was an awkward pause before I reached over and ran my fingers through his raven, windblown hair. He pulled me into his lap.
"I feel so untouched right now…" I sang along to the song, "Need you so much somehow…"
He kissed my lips very gently. My hand was on his neck, my thumb slightly touching his ear, and my other hand was intertwined with his. Just then a radio-commercial came on. We ignored it until we heard: "To intensify pleasure. Viva… Viva… Viagra!"
I jumped away from him, blushing like crazy, turning the radio off. He fixed his hair and made a weird face. I licked the front of my teeth and decided something, "I want to go to the park."
"Alright, go get dresssss- right… You don't have any clothes. I think my jeans will fit you." He offered.
"Pfft, yeah right. I'll just wear the shorts from yesterday and steal one of your shirts." I kissed his forehead overdramatically, making funny suction noises and ending with a big, "MUAH."
"Thank you for that." He squinted one eye.
Sorry it's so short.. I'm running out of ideas... I've written so many fanfictions that I can't keep repeating myself... Um... Reviews are appreciated :)
