The rhythmic movement of the train nearly had me doze off to sleep as my body unconsciously leaned into Chris's side.

His deep chuckle caused me to stir as he asked, "Am I going to have to carry you up to your dorm room?"

I snuggled closer against him as he wrapped his arm around my shoulders mumbling, "I wouldn't mind."

"Duly noted."

We sat in comfortable silence, but a nagging curiosity kept me from slipping off again, so I voiced it, "So, what did Cleo come over for anyway?"

I could hear the smile in Chris's voice as he responded with his own question, "What do you think she was there for?"

I moved around to where I could stare up at him, seeing that he was in fact grinning. "Well, I don't think she came over for tea time."

"Remember what I told you, not everything in BDSM is about sex." He whispered so the few people in this train car wouldn't overhear him. "Besides I don't like her like that."

"But she's gorgeous!" I point out in a harsh whisper.

"She is, but she's not my type."

"What's your type?"

"Are you looking to fill out an application?" He teased as he wiggled his eyebrows.

I swatted his chest muttering, "Oh, shut up."

Chris chuckled, before surprising me by pecking me on the lips and then murmuring, "I couldn't resist, you're cute when your irritated."

I rolled my eyes even though I felt my cheeks getting hot. Thankfully, our train ride ended soon after that and we were making our way towards campus.

When we reached the front doors Chris spoke up, "Oh, I almost forgot."

Before I could ask what he was talking about, he scooped me into his arms making me yelp as he remarked, "We had agreed that I would carry you up to your room."

I giggled as he pushed the door open with his hip and carried me over to the elevator. "Would you mind pressing the button for me?"

I did as he asked and as soon as we were inside the elevator I press the button for my floor and tell him, "Alright, you can put me down now before you hurt yourself."

He scoffed at me, "You aren't going to hurt me, you barely weigh a thing."

"Oh, sure." I mutter sarcastically.

"I'm serious!" He says with a laugh as he puts me down for a second, only to hoist me over his shoulder.

"Chris!" I shout as I grip onto him out of fear that he might drop me, even though at the same time I couldn't stop myself from laughing along with him. "Put me back down!"

The elevator doors then slid open to our stop and that was when he lowered me back to the floor.

I glanced around to find that there was no one out and about in the hallway, so I lowered my voice as I said, "You're such a prick."

"Now Amber, I understand that you are afraid of heights, but I didn't think it was that bad." He teased with a mischievous grin.

I shook my head at him as I made my way to the door of my dorm grumbling, "Don't kid yourself, you aren't that big."

I reach into my pocket to pull out my keys and then suddenly his voice is right in my ear breathing, "But you don't know that yet."

I spun around to face him, my heart stuttering at the lack of space between us. "Since when are you this forward?"
