Revelations

chapter eighteen

"Wake up beautiful!" I felt peaceful. I could hear Leighton's beautiful voice calling me, but I wasn't waking up for shit. "Oh beautiful! Egyptian is here."

I peeped out of one eye. No he wasn't, he was lying. I rolled over, "Hush. Five minutes longer." He stroked my cheek.

"Gracie we have to get up. I've got a surprise for you. " He kissed my head.

"I'm going for a shower." When the door closed I opened my eyes. At the bottom of the bed was a red rose and a box.

I crawled to the end of the bed and opened it. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. It was a Pandora bracelet and it was absolutely stunning,

I love Pandora, but It's never been something I could afford.

Without thinking straight, I ran into the bathroom, and straight into the shower and kissed Leighton hard, jumping up in his arms. the water was dripping down my face and I kept kissing him all over his face, his head and back to his lips.

"Thank you! Thank you! Thankyou! It's beautiful and you shouldn't have." He laughed, undoing my bun. My hair splayed out over my back. Without realising what I had done, I was in the shower with Leighton.

He placed me back on my feet, pulling the top out of my bottoms, lifting it over my head. I was biting my bottom lip. His fingers ran down my arms to my waist. He slipped my bottoms off and he pulled me closer. My now naked form was pressed against his. He bit my bottom lip and I let out a gasp.

"Shush. Its ok," he whispered. His hand was tracing small circles down my back and I shivered against him. I felt awkward. I was so exposed now, and with no experience I felt even more awkward. He smiled. He heard me.

"Neither have I. We might as well shower together now. You're so beautiful, plus you're so welcome for the gift. You deserve everything babe."

I ran my nails down Leighton's back and he closed his eyes. He leaned my head back, kissing all the way up my neck to my lips and whispered against them, "Gracie no! Not now, soon,"

Oh my! I found something he likes. This was good, I was learning, but I needed to learn faster. I kissed him and walked out the shower, grabbing my clothes and a towel before going back into the bedroom.

I got dried and dressed again. I was laying on his bed, had I really been that close. I seriously had to chill. I felt like I was on fire. When he came out he was a little quiet, Had I upset him?

"What's wrong," I enquired.

He shook his head. "Nothing you just drove me crazy. You have no idea how close that was, how bad I wanted you in the shower."

I giggled. "Same here."

All that day, I kept going over what might have been. My body was responding to every memory of it.

The rest of the week was extremely busy, so it was good to have other things going on. Leighton was true to his word. Every day after the dress I had deliveries. Flowers came with each gift. I was shocked everytime I opened a package, were talking , Ipad, loaded with all my favourite tunes, a fully loaded charm bracelet, a stunning heart locket with a picture of us both in, that was to name but a few. I couldn't quite believe the gifts he was getting me. They were all so expensive.

I remembered my Mum saying that Dad use to buy her gifts all the time. Obviously this was a part of relationships. They were all beautiful, one of them was a kindle loaded with tons of books.

Aww he remembered how much I loved to read. He put real thought into every single one.

This week was also extremely hard. Leighton was called away on business with his Mum, some loco vampires on the loose again I suppose. We spoke every day. Jo spent most of her week with Pierre, so I was left with the others, but I didn't mind it at all. Evie was taking me to the doctors in the morning so I felt an early night was needed.
