Chapter 129
- HAZEL -
‘Must you be friends with her? She looks quite old even for you.’ Killian’s words makes me look up to face him. My eyes are completely spent and I’m worn out in the best way one could be. The kind that makes one’s body feel alive. I’m naked on his bed, clutched to his side as his hand rests on my waist, holding me to him. My head is resting on his arms as Killian plays with my hair with that same hand.
My lips forms a line. I’m way too deep into sleeping to actually think or hear straight. ‘You mean Carol?’ I hum, resting my head on his chest instead.
Killian hums a reply. He hummed a ‘yes’. The freshness of his breath along with the vibration from his chest has me in a dreamy chokehold.
‘I feel like I owe her.’ I finally say. ‘The reason I even have people calling themselves my friends is because of her.’ I remember proceeding to go on with a long ass explanation, I remember him replying to me.
Killian’s response to that still echoes in my mind and cooes my heart to a fuzzy feeling.
A sigh leaves my lips as I put the last book in my bag and zip up. It’s Wednesday. While having going to school from his place was fun, I can’t do that for long, I need to be in my dorm and start preparing for my exams without distractions and temptation. Heavy on the temptation part.
Someone slips behind me, body brushing against mine as the person lays kisses on my cheek while twisting the tip of my the hair tucked behind my ears around a finger. “Good morning beautiful, leaving so soon?” Killian’s voice vibrates on my skin as he tickles my waist. I laugh.
“I have to.” I say, turning to face him while slipping an arm of my bag on my shoulder. I tilt my head up to face him. “Since you’re not so kind to ease my exam baggage, I need to study myself.” A smirk forms on my face. This won’t get him to change his mind regarding that and I’m done asking.
