Shattered Girl (Emmy)

Chapter 157

Three days later, a quiet knock on my door woke me. The sun had barely risen, and it was early. "I'm awake," I said in a sleepy voice. A smiling Drew pushed open the door. When I stretched my hand to him, he came right over and slid onto the bed. I fit into his arms like I'd been made just for him. I melted into him, and the tension keeping him rigid, relaxed. Drew ran his fingers through my hair, being careful not to pull.

With a groan, I pulled back from the kiss. "You taste like peppermint and coffee, and I haven't even brushed my teeth. I probably have horrible morning breath," I complained.

Drew chuckled. "You taste like you, beautiful. He said, then rolled me over, being careful to keep his weight off of me, which I was grateful for because I was still very sore. My fingers dug into his shoulders, then slid through his hair as he kissed me again.

I shivered under the sheets and wiggled, then wrapped my leg around his waist, and Drew chuckled against my mouth. "As tempting as that is beautiful, I have other plans for us."

"What did you have in mind?"

"Run away with me for the day? Just you and me,"

I gently ran my hand down his cheek, and then I froze "Oh shit."

"Shh..." Drew caught my hand and kissed it.

"Drew, we..."

"Shh...no worries, beautiful. You being home and safe is the best birthday gift ever.

"I'm a horrible girlfriend." I groaned.
