Chapter 38: 𝗮𝘂𝗿𝗼𝗿𝗮 𝟮

AURORA

age seventeen

————————————————————

I placed the suitcase next to me and roamed my eyes around the house. It was truly breathtaking.

"Aurora, that one there is your room." Dad said and I turned my head to where he was pointing. It was the last room in the hallway and I was happy with it.

"Where are the other's staying?" I asked and looked up at him.

He placed his hands on his hips. "Well we're staying on the second floor. The twins are staying in there." He pointed to the two rooms that were close to me. Great I'm going to have to put up with Axel.

"And Apollo on the other side." He said that with a little more excitement than I preferred him to. I knew what dad was doing. He didn't want our rooms to be close.

"Why doesn't Apollo stay in one of these room?" I whined but dad shushed me up.

"Not another word young lady. I don't want to hear it. You'll hang out during the day. Why do you need your rooms to be close?" I wanted to roll my eyes at my dad's protectiveness. He always does this. When we were younger he wasn't paying attention that much but now... he acts like we are secretly hooking up.

As much as I was against it, I couldn't complain. "Okay." I said and he firmly nodded his head as being proud of himself. Knowing my dad he probably was.

"Well then go and unpack your stuff. We're all outside. I'll get the twins and show them their rooms." He turned around and started walking out the door.

We were on vacation in Greece this time. We took vacation together every summer. Last year it was in Malta, this year Greece, Santorini.

Uncle Ash has a villa here and we all came for a week.

It was really beautiful and I couldn't wait to spend my time here with our families. Our vacations were the best because I got to spend them with Apollo. We always made sure to try new adventures stuff.

I only didn't do swimming with sharks. No, thank you. Dad always joked how I picked up my fear of deep water from my Mom. But she was right. Deep water was not safe at all.

I unpacked my suitcase and placed all of my stuff in the wooden wardrobe. My room was painted in white and had wood and blue decorations.

It was lovely, also the view was spectacular and I loved the light wind blowing the thin curtains.

I threw on a summer dress and flat sandals on and exited my room.

We all met outside because we were going for a dinner. It was about 8pm.

The lights decorated the streets and me and Apollo took hundreds and hundreds photos together. Axel was trying to speak some word in Greek that he learned at home while Aaron's eyes stayed glued to his phone. Like always.

That sneaky little shit doesn't want to admit but he secretly has a crush on Luna. He always gets annoyed when she hangs out with Axel and not with him.

Axel knows that well and tries to make him jealous every single time.

Nothing can get past Axel, I swear it's like he reads our minds.

Our parents were having their own fun. Dad wouldn't let go of my Mom and sent daggers to everyone one who looked at her. Uncle Ash brought everyone's attention to us with his loud talking and Aunt Isla wouldn't take her eyes off him.

It made me wonder if I'll ever experience that with Apollo.

I turned my head to him and he had his small film camera pointed at me.

"Smile, Rory." He said and flashed the light in my face.

We walked around after the dinner and everyone seemed to be tired already. Not me and Apollo though. We sleep the whole journey on the plane.

I fell asleep immediately after we departed and woke up when we arrived.

When we came back to the villa we all went to our separate rooms and both me and Apollo pouted because of how far apart our rooms were. "Your dad did his thing, didn't he?" Apollo said and I nodded.

The next day we went swimming. We didn't do much. We were just lazy the whole day.

When I got back to my room again, my bikini were soaked and I unclasped the hair clip and and let my hair fall down my shoulders.

It was almost 8 pm and I had half an hour to get ready for dinner. Our parents were staying here but me, the twins and Apollo were going out.

I walked to the wardrobe and opened the doors, looking for something to wear.

I heard the door behind me crack open and i turned around.

It was Apollo.

He was still in his swimming trunks, his hair damp and the water drops falling down his abs and biceps. My eyes shamelessly ranked over his body.

"Did you need something?" I said after I cleared my throat.

He took few steps towards me.

"What are you wearing for later? I thought we could match." He brought his hand to his hair and pushed it back.

My mouth stayed agape and I didn't know what to say. His closeness made me dizzy.

We were both in our swim suits and his body heat next to me suffocated me. The light wind didn't help my burning face.

"Also I've been thinking about something..." he said while scratching the back of his neck.

I tried to play it cool and crossed my arms in front of me.

His eyes immediately went down. I was dressed in two piece royal blue bikini. The top was maybe a size smaller but it didn't matter because my boobs were barely there.

"You know about the deal we had?" He asked.

I furrowed my eyebrows, I couldn't think straight and my mind couldn't pick up on what he was referring to.

"You know when we said... We'll be each other's first kiss if we don't kiss anyone else till we're eighteen." My heartbeat increased.

"Well we're almost eighteen... and I still haven't had my first kiss..." where was he going with this?

Don't act like you don't know, Aurora.

I never had my first kiss because I was saving it for him.

So I just nodded. The words were stuck in my throat.

"Will you give me your first kiss, Rory?" He was too close now. Our chest almost touching and I didn't even noticed when he got this close to me.

His blue eyes searched mine for an answer.

"Yes." I nodded my head while saying the word. My hands were shaking and I couldn't even believe that this was happening. What if I was dreaming?

Could this be real?

He lifted his hands and cupped my face, pushing the hair out of my face. I tilted my head and my eyes went to his lips.

"Did you lock the door?" I whispered against his lips.

"Yes, yes I did." His hot breath fanned my face.

"Okay. Just... kiss me, Apollo." As soon as I said the words his lips landed on mine. They were soft and gentle. I fought the urge to moan.

I circled my hands around his neck and brought his face closer to mine.

I needed to feel him.

My best friend who I was helplessly in love with, was kissing me. And it felt heavenly. He felt unreal.

Our lips moved slowly trying to adjust to each other. He let me lead and allowed me to get more comfortable. He didn't rush anything and I loved him even more because of that.

I stood on my tiptoes and opened my mouth wider and let my tongue taste his lips.

He groaned and slipped his tongue out and let it taste my own.

A light moan escaped my lips as our tongues danced together. I didn't know that my first kiss would be like this. Our almost naked bodies were touching and I pressed my whole torso to him.

He slid his hand in my hair and fisted it, tugging slightly. That small action made me whimper in pleasure.

His other hand went to my waist and his fingers dig into my flesh.

I wanted him closer. So much closer.

He noticed me clinging to him and in one swift motion he picked me up. My legs around his waist and my arms around his neck.

He walked few steps, our kiss never breaking. He leaned and my body landed on the soft mattress.

I spread my legs and welcomed him on top of me. He took a hold of my hands and intertwined our fingers, placing them next to my head.

He moved his lips from my mouth to my jaw and then my neck. When he sucked on the spot that made me squeeze my legs around him, a moan left through my lips.

"Shh." He shushed me and placed his hand over my mouth, his lips found my neck again and he continued with his torture.

My nails starched his biceps and I rolled my hips. I felt him against me. He was hard.

I rolled my hips again and he brought his hand on my hips.

"Fuck Rory, stop with that." He whispered on my neck. His voice was hoarse and he sounded like he was in pain.

When he lifted his head to me, his lips were swollen from our kissing and his damp hair fell down his forehead. He was truly the most beautiful boy I've ever laid my eyes on.

Our lips connected again, this time in a more heated kiss. We didn't shy away from each other. Our kiss became sloppy and loud. His hand went from my stomach, up to the valley of my boobs to my neck.

He wrapped his hands around it and gave a light squeeze. It felt so good.

"Rory!" I heard Axel's voice on the other side. He knocked on the door.

Me and Apollo like not hearing anything continue our little make out session.

Axel tried to open the door but it was locked. "Rory!" He shouted again.

Apollo withdrew his head from me.

"He'll go away." I said and pulled him back to me. He nodded in our kiss and I angled my head for him to better access my mouth.

The knocking stopped after a minute.

Apollo switched our position and now I was on top of him. I pushed my hair the to side and now it was my turn to tease him. I started placing open mouthed kissed on his jaw and neck. My hands traveled over his torso.

His palms went over my hips and he squeezed, stopping me from rolling my hips.

My body was burning and I felt my cheeks get red when I really felt him beneath me.

We pulled away, our breathing sharp and loud.

"Aurora!" Oh shit, Dad.

Shit.

Shit.

Both of our eyes widened in horror and I quickly got up. Pushing myself off the bed.

"What are we going to do?" I whisper yelled. Apollo jumped from the bed as well and looked down at himself.

"Your dad will kill me if he sees me like this." He pointed to his groin and I placed a hand over my forehead.

I rushed to my wardrobe and snatched a big t-shirt and pulled over my body.

I didn't have a t-shirt big enough for Apollo so I grabbed the blanket of the bed and threw it at him.

"Wrap this around yourself. Quickly." He did as I said and wrapped the blanket around him.

The only problem is that he wrapped it around his waist and he looked like he didn't have anything underneath.

"Noo." I walked towards his and pulled it over his shoulders. It covered him completely.

He nodded fixing his hair. I did as well and walked towards the door. I took few deep breaths and slowly opened it.

On the other side was Dad. A frown on his face, his eyebrows furrowed in anger. His arms were crossed in front of him. Axel stood behind him, a hand over his mouth to cover his laugh.

That piece of shit.

"What is going on here?" Dad said looking behind me at Apollo.

"Nothing dad. We were just listening to some music and we didn't hear." I awkwardly laughed, trying to cover up the nervousness in my voice.

He didn't seemed convinced.

"What are you doing?" He asked Apollo who now stood next to me. He tightened the blanket around him.

"Umm, I was cold." He blurbed out.

Dad raised his eyebrows. "You were cold? On this weather?"

"Yes." He smiled, but I know he was scared to death of my Dad.

Dad stayed still for a minute looking at both of us.

"Go to your room. You're not going anywhere. We're all having dinner here." With that he turned around and left. Axel finally let out a laugh and tsked.

I raised my hand in motion to hit him but he ran away.

Apollo quickly walked past me and whispered a quiet bye.

I groaned and pushed the door behind me. I changed into new clothes and when I saw myself in the mirror, a smiled formed on my face.

Oh my. I finally kissed Apollo. My first kiss and it was perfect.

So, so perfect.

I gathered myself and walked out. I lowered my head and made my way to the dining room.

Mom and Isla have order food and we all ate in silence. I felt my Dad's eyes on me and I didn't dare to look at him or Apollo.

Also if I looked at Apollo I probably won't be able to contain my laugh.

We all helped Mom and Isla clean the table and we stayed outside on the terrace for a while, having a fun night with a cup of ice cream.

Then we were ushered to go to bed because we were going for a trip with a boat tomorrow.

I stood up from my chair and said goodbye to everyone. I dragged myself to my room. Because my room was at the very far end their conversations were not audible anymore.

Before I could close my door a foot was placed in between.

"What are you doing here?" I asked when I saw Apollo.

He smiled sweetly at me.

"I want your second kiss." He said and brought his face closer to mine, pecking my lips.

"You are crazy." I laughed and peeked my head to see if anyone is in the hallway.

He looked down at me and I swear my heart was going to stop.

"And maybe your third kiss." He said again and pecked my lips one last time.

We both laughed against each other's lips. I pushed on his chest. "Go now before my dad sees you." He quickly nodded and kissed my forehead before he turned around and left.

I bit my lip, watching him walk away.

You'll have all of my kisses Apollo.

I don't know if I'll write their story because I have other books to finish. Maybe in the future.😅

Also there is a boxing match happening and my brother's friend is boxing. I wanted to go and watch so bad.😫 I have to be somewhere else on that night though.

But I wanted to go so bad.😔
