Chapter 47: : Chapter 47

Elija finally takes the condom from me. At this point, I don’t care that I’m begging him to have sex with me. I’m too needy to care. But it’s his fault for edging me!

As he rolls the latex on, I take off my panties. Elija’s the first one I’ve ever been naked in front of since I was a child and as I wait for him, I can start feeling a bit nervous. Daylight streams in through the windows so what if he doesn’t like what he sees? Or what if I’m bad at sex? I couldn’t even fit his dick all the way in my mouth so what if I can’t take him?

‘You still with me?’ Elija asks, snapping me from my chaotic thoughts. As I meet his eyes, my nerves calm. It’s him, I remind myself. I don’t have to worry when I’m with him.

‘Yeah,’ I say honestly. He leans down to kiss me softly and I can feel him lining up with my entrance. Before he pushes in, he rubs himself through my folds and circles my clit once. I pull him closer and moan because damn, that’s hot.

Then he leans closer, entering me the first inch only to pull back again. He repeats the movement, kissing me softly as he goes deeper with each thrust. I barely kiss him back, too focused on trying to stay relaxed since the books didn’t lie. This shit hurts. Like really hurts. Just not in an entirely bad way.

When Elija’s finally all the way in, he stills for a beat, breathing heavily.

‘You okay?’ he asks softly. I nod, trying to find my voice. ‘Am I hurting you?’ My eyes have stayed closed so far but I force them open now, even as I nod. Elija searches my eyes and I can tell he’s worried he’s doing something wrong. I want to assure him but he speaks first. ‘Do you want me to stop?’ This time, I shake my head.

‘Just move, please,’ I tell him.

As he does like I asked him, I close my eyes again. I kiss him back this time, pulling him closer every time he’s balls deep as the pain slowly eases up. Weirdly, the more he speeds up and the deeper he goes, the better it gets.

I spread my legs wider, giving him more space to move. When he pulls me against him to meet his next thrust, I moan loudly.

‘Faster,’ I say huskily, too far gone to feel embarrassed. Elija follows my order and curses under his breath.

‘Fuck, Florence, you feel so good,’ he grits, moving faster and faster. The comment has me clenching around him.

Then one of his hands leaves my hips and his fingers start circling my clit as he keeps thrusting. My whole body starts tingling as I’m getting closer. When I finally come, my back arches off the bed and I clench tightly around Elija’s dick. He stills after two more thrusts, groaning as he comes for the second time.

When he pulls out of me and leaves the bed, I open my eyes to see him going to the bathroom. Before the rejection can settle in, he’s back, no longer wearing the condom. He lays down next to me, pulls me into his arms before covering us with my blanket. I sigh against his skin.

‘How was it?’ Elija asks as if he weren’t there. I laugh softly.

‘You didn’t see me twitch as I came?’ I ask, making him chuckle as well.

‘Just making sure.’

‘I know. Thank you, it was great,’ I assure him. Then, reluctantly since I hate to ruin a moment. ‘I’m gonna go to the bathroom real quick,’ I tell him.

‘Of course,’ he says, letting me go. Getting up, I wince at the soreness between my legs. Then, seeing he’s holding back a smile, I glare at him.

‘Careful, boy. Otherwise, you’re going to find out how I got away on Saturday faster than you can blink,’ I tell him. When his face falls, I regret having mentioned it. I know he still blames himself for what happened, I shouldn’t have said anything.

Deciding to let it go, I quickly pick up Elija’s shirt off the ground and put it on before going to the bathroom.

He’s in the same position when I come back, watching Harry say goodbye to Sirius. Damn, we missed the whole movie. It’s fine though since it only makes me sad, knowing what will happen in the next few movies.

Right as I’m cuddling up to Elija, his phone goes off.

‘My mom,’ he tells me before picking up. He’s close enough for me to hear what she’s saying even though I don’t try to. Elija doesn’t seem to mind though.

‘Good to know he’s alive. I’ve been asking myself if you were part of my imagination recently. Tell me, am I allowed to see my son again sometime?’ she asks, making me stifle a laugh.

‘Sorry, Ma. I’ve been staying-‘ his mom cuts him off.

‘With Florence, I know. That’s completely fine but dad and I would like to go out for dinner tonight and since Kai’s stayed home with the twins last time I was hoping you could take over tonight. You can make it up to Florence by inviting her over to dinner tomorrow, okay?’ she asks.

‘Yeah, sure. I’ll ask her. See you later.’

‘Goodbye, Honey.’

‘Bye, Mom,’ Elija says before ending the call. ‘You heard her; do you want to come over tomorrow?’ he then asks me.

‘Well, my parents come home tomorrow so I probably won’t be able to stay long but I’d really like that,’ I tell him. Not sure when my parents arrive but I’m sure they won’t even notice I’m gone.

Too soon, Elija gets dressed and leaves. I should do some homework or study since I haven’t been doing that in some time but I can’t seem to find my motivation.

I wouldn’t say my grades are bad, they’re still better than 70% of the class but they used to be even better. Since I started hanging out with the guys I just don’t have as much time on my hands between them, sleep, school, and reading and drawing.

My parents would just say I should prioritize school and they might be right. Still, I can’t seem to do it. So here I am, reading my night away instead of studying for my test tomorrow.

‘Flower girl!’ May greets me, hugging my side.

‘I’m coming!’ Daniel screams as he runs around the corner, coming at me at full speed.

‘Whoa, hi you guys. It’s good to see you too,’ I say. It is but I really can’t breathe with them squeezing me. They’re five, how are they so strong?

‘Florence, it’s good to have you back. Come in, the food’s about to be ready,’ Elija’s father, Robert, tells me.

‘Hi, Flo,’ Kai greets me. He’s already sitting at the table and the twins and their father take their seats as well. I’m guessing Amelia is in the kitchen so I head there to greet her.

‘Hey, Amelia.’ The woman turns to me with the biggest of smiles, spreading her arms to hug me.

‘Hi, honey. How’ve you been?’ she asks. She pulls away and keeps me at arm’s length.

‘I’ve been great. Sorry for taking up so much of Elija’s time though,’ I tell her. She laughs and brushes me off.

‘Don’t be silly, I love to see him this happy.’

‘Where is he, by the way?’ I ask. He told me he’d meet me here.

‘I don’t know but I’m sure he’ll be here soon.’

Well, I sure hope so.
