Chapter 262: Waking Up in the Dark
When Elin opened her eyes, at first she thought the storm was still going strong. The darkness around her and Kim was all encompassing and felt like it wanted to swallow them both whole.
However, a moment later she realized just how quiet it was. She couldn't help but enjoy the warmth from Kim's body, but at the same time, she felt compelled to look outside to make sure that she hadn't merely lost her hearing.
The only problem with that notion was she couldn't remember which way led to the entrance. Assuming she was still in the same position as when she'd 'settled in' with Kim.
Since she couldn't recall which way would be the exit, Elin merely did her best to burrow further into Kim's warmth. If she wasn't able to verify if it really wasn't raining anymore, at the very least she could enjoy more of Kim's warmth. Warmth that still felt as intoxicating as Kim's scent.
Elin couldn't say if her doing that is what had woken Kim up or if Kim had already been awake, but she could feel Kim moving in response. Though, Kim didn't say anything. Or if she did, it was because Elin's hearing wasn't working. Which meant that it still could be raining as well.
Although, she thought she could hear the dripping of water somewhere nearby anyway.
If she couldn't hear at the moment, she wasn't sure if that would affect how she was able to continue with Kim, but at the moment she really didn't care. She found that she enjoyed pretending she couldn't hear and ignored the sounds of Kim's breathing.
Elin wasn't sure how much time passed as she enjoyed the feeling of her body pressed against Kim's. Yet, eventually, Kim began disentangling herself from Elin, much to her dismay.
"Just a little longer," Elin begged, doing her best to hold onto Kim.
