Starcrossed (Sequel to Apocalypse)

Chapter 12 - Salutations

*~* Max's POV *~*

"How do I look in this one?" Amelia asked me as she stepped out of her ensuite once again and modelled some of the many outfits she got whilst shopping.

It was, of course, Aunt Alice's idea. Not that I minded, each outfit gave me the opportunity to gaze all over Amelia without looking like a total pervert.

"You look beautiful in everything Amelia, but I like the shorts, real sexy," I commented and winked at her. She was wearing denim shorts with a loose blood red turtle neck which still hinted what was underneath. Amelia didn't bother with accessories such as socks, shoes, hair stuff, jewellery and what not. I told her not to too as she was only modelling for me.

"Max, I can't look beautiful in everything,"

I rolled my eyes at Amelia and got off from my lying down position from her bed. I rested my hands on her hips and brought her closer so our bodies were pressed against each other.

"Oh but you do Amelia, beautiful doesn't even cover it. I think I'm going to have to spend the rest of my existence trying to show you how special, beautiful and amazing you are," I said to her honestly, whilst looking into her beautiful emerald eyes. Amelia smiled at me, it was the smile that made all my insides turn into jelly, yet made me feel all tingly.

She leaned forward and press her soft lips to mine causing an eruption of butterflies to happen in my stomach and my insides to become hot. She wrapped her arms around my neck and at the same time I slid my arms around her waist.

She parted her lips slightly and she teasingly bit my lip; before I could slip my tongue into her mouth we were interrupted. Surprisingly not by my dad.

"AMELIA! MAX! NO SIDE-TRACKING!" Aunt Alice shouted causing us to immediately pull apart. I groaned, I haven't been with Amelia for like three days yet and I can't even spend some proper time with her?

Amelia started to giggle, the sound enchanted me. God, I'm so whipped. But wo cares, it's Amelia, any guy would be.

"C'mon Maxie, I only have one more top to try on," Amelia said and then pressed her lips against mine for a brief second and then pulled away.

Taking my breath with her.

She re-entered her ensuite and I decided to sit down and calm myself down. The things I wanted to do to her, I felt for Uncle Edward he could see what I wanted.

After a few deep breaths I was calm and Amelia left her ensuite, as if on cue. She was wearing a top with the words 'Bite Me' on it causing me to laugh. How ironic.

"Aubrey got the same, I liked it too so I got one," Amelia explained to me. I nodded, she looked like she was going to say more but she refrained. She'll tell me in her own time.

"You should definitely take that top with you," I told her, she nodded and did a little twirl, as if she was showing off.

So much for calming down.

"Okay, I will," She agreed, she winked at me and then went back into her ensuite. I decided to close my eyes, while she changed back into her first outfit.

I still can't believe that she's here. When I first saw her, I thought I was dreaming, that she was going to vanish if I blinked, but she didn't. And she isn't.

I heard the ensuite door, re-open and I opened my eyes. She was wearing some silk nighties...

Is she trying to kill me?
