บท 17: A Night of Passion and Nightmares

"Hi," I purred seductively as I walked over to my bed and sat down.

"Hi," he replied with a small smile. He made no moves to come towards me; I think he was trying not to rush me. I patted the bed beside me and he eagerly trotted over and sat down.

"Thanks for checking my room," I whispered, playing with the neck of his t-shirt, tracing my finger along the skin there.

"Anytime. I'm just sorry I won't be here for you tonight. Try not to have too many nightmares, OK?" He looked at me with sad eyes; we both knew that I would have nightmares without him here.

I got onto my knees and moved to him, throwing my leg over his so I was sitting on his lap, straddling him. I wrapped my arms around his neck and looked into his beautiful blue eyes. He looked a little taken aback but his eyes danced with excitement.
