Bound To You

Chapter 33- All I Need

Chapter 33- All I Need

Connor's P.O.V.

I rub my hand back and forth against her soft arm in a rhythmic motion soothingly.

               "Grace... Grace." I put my face close to hers and kiss her forehead tenderly. She doesn't even move a muscle.

               "Common' Grace, wake up baby." Her eyes slowly begin to open. I knew she was awake the entire time.

               "No, it's early!" She complains.

               "Common", I say trying to encourage her to get out of bed. "You can't sleep the whole day away. It's already six." Well... She can, but I refuse to let her.

               "Its not the day its morning."

               "Well I have things planned this morning", I tell her with equal amount of emphasis. Grace shakes her head and then shifts so she's covering it with the pillow.               

               Why does she have to be so difficult, even in the morning, even when she looks like an angelic sleeping princess?

               "You know I love to watch you sleep but you gotta' get up." I yank the pillow off of her head. "You've been sleeping for long enough," I say.

               "It's been four hours, but fine", she says while throwing the covers back and sitting up, revealing her little clothing she has on. Finally! I thought it was going to take some miracle to get her up.           

               "What do you have planned?"

               "We're going fishing", I tell her. The look of horror is struck upon her face and she shakes her head.

               "Absolutely not", she refuses.

                "Yes", I say.

               "I have no clothes or a swimsuit...."

               "Who said anything about needing one?" I wink at her. She groans and gives me the evil stare. "You can just wear your clothes from yesterday... if it will make you feel more comfortable..." She grins with satisfactory.

               "Fine." She crosses her arms.

               "Be ready in 5, or else", I tell her in my best warning tone while holding up my fingers. I head to the door.

               "Or else what? What are you going to do", she challenges. I waltz back over to her.

               "Well... then... I'm Just going to have to kiss you to death." She pretends to be horrified.

               "Oh no! You can't do that! Please, no," she pretends to scream. I step forward and close the distance between us. I'm fully aware that she can't wait for her lips to touch mine, and neither can I. She's still sitting with her legs dangling off the edge of the bed and her arms crossed, looking as irresistible as ever. My gaze drops from her arms back to her long legs again. They look so delicious, fully revealed from the over-sized T-shirt riding up her thighs. It's high enough to reveal a little lace of her panties. My stare meets her eyes and I look into them as her breath hitches when I skillfully run my hand along her silken leg.

               "No one will be able to hear you," I tell her as she continues to shout playfully. I glide my hand up to her thigh and slowly pull up her shirt revealing more of her lacy bottoms. Her breathing starts to get ragged and I'm close enough to feel the warm heat on my face. Steady breaths, Grace. She shifts in her place as the anticipation builds up inside.
