Our Way Through The Dark

Chapter 26

I woke up to the smell of bacon hitting my nostrils. I got out of bed walking to the bathroom that was connected into the room.

I saw both me and Jays toothbrushes already laid out on the beautiful wooden sink, I grabbed the grey toothbrush that was mine and put the perfect amount of toothpaste on it before wetting it and placing it in my mouth.

Once done brushing my tongue and spitting out the toothpaste, I cleansed my face and decided to keep my hair in its messy bun tucking some of the pieces behind my ear.

I made my way into the kitchen and it was a beautiful sight seeing Jay in front of the stove flipping pancakes—I walked behind him wrapping my arms around him placing a kiss on his shirtless back and he let out a chuckle, "Good morning beautiful." his voice was still raspy and I loved it.

"Good morning." I chirped a faint smile on my lips, "What are you making." I stood on my tippy toes trying to look over his shoulder but he was to tall so I unwrapped my arms and stood next to him looking at the delicious breakfast in front of my face; my stomach let out a growl.

"Some eggs, with some bacon and pancakes." he explained, "and some fruit for you in the bowl," He pointed with the spatula to the white bowl that was on the island table "Sit down i'll bring the food over to you." With a small kiss to my lips I walked over taking a seat on the chair and Jay placed on plant in front of me and another next to the seat near me.

"We have to leave later today to try on some outfits for the ball, tomorrow we have to leave early for it." He let's me know as I apply some syrup on my pancake and eggs,

"Is there a special theme?" I ask chewing on a piece of bacon dipping it in the syrup droplets on the plant and taking another bite,

"Usually the mafias wear specific colors for their own mafia." He looks at me as he speaking chewing on his scrambled egg,

I nod.

We both laugh and giggle as we conversant and eat. I've never felt more happy in my entire life each having a smile on our faces after we joke around and watching the small dimple on his cheek indent as he listened to what I said and what he says.

"You have a beautiful smile." he places his fork on the empty plate with only syrup on it and I do the same,

"You have a beautiful laugh." I compliment back and let out a giggle, "Your ears are red." I comment watching him blush,

"Your cheeks are red."

I place my hands on my cheek and hit his chest playfully, "They're not." He lets out a laugh his eyes squinting as he laughs,

"They're."

"They're not."

"Mhm."

"No."

We go back and forth until Jay leans forward placing his lips onto mine, I didn't pull away quickly giving him a kiss back. It wasn't aggressive nor was it felt with sexual need it was a passionate kiss felt with nothing but need.

Need for one another and everything in the kiss felt like different emotions. It was soft as his hands fell to my waist and he stood up not breaking the kiss but moving in between my legs. His mouth exploring my own at our own slow pace.

"Come." He said breathing heavy and grabbing my hand.

We ran out the beautiful wooden house, the door opened but Jay didn't seem to care as he kept on going, I didn't question as I followed him laughing for some reason and once we stopped I opened
my eyes not even knowing that they were closed.
