Ghost - Elmax

Chapter 38 : Phone call

Jane was awake but didn't open her eyes. She was enjoying so much Max's caresses that she didn't want it to stop when she opened her eyes.

- "I know you're awake," told the redhead.

- "I'm not," mumbled Jane.

The brunette opened one eye and looked at her girlfriend who was smiling to her. Jane straightened a bit and placed her head closer to Max's.

- "How can you know if I'm asleep or not?"

- "You've a tic when you sleep."

- "Really?"

- "Yeah, you quickly stretch your middle finger."

- "All night long?" frowned Jane.

- "All night long."

- "Damn, it explains why I'm always tired!"

- "Pfff, don't search an excuse for your lazy ass," mocked Max.

- "My middle finger is taking all my energy, it's not my fault!"

Max playfully shook her head. She felt Jane's hot body snuggling against hers, wrapping her legs and arms around her, and placing her head in her neck. The redhead felt a pleasant heat in her stomach and her heart racing. With their works it became rare to stay in bed with her. None of them wanted to move, enjoying too much each other.

While Max was caressing her girlfriend's hair, she was remembering all those years after high school. She left the USA to leave for Italia for one year. She met lots of amazing cooks, learnt how to make pizzas, ice cream, and pastas like Italian people. Jane took the plane to see her when she had free times. They visited South of Italia, where the pizzica was born, the dance that Jane and Troy used to dance before. They went in Roma too, discovering the driving of big town. Jane almost got crazy. But the town was beautiful, it was worth it.

Max then moved in France, to learn French gastronomic. She went in Paris and felt in love with the town, contrary to Jane who preferred coutrysides. But the brunette liked the food a lot, even snails! For Christmas, they went to the Alps to ski. Jane fell the fourth day, just before Christmas night. She had to go to hospital because she wrecked her knee. She was so mad, she thought she had ruined their vacation, but Max spent an amazing week with her, it was all she needed, she didn't need to ski the last days. But the redhead was worrying that it could be a problem for the police academy; it was already complicated because she was a girl, she didn't want their vacation to ruin everything.

When she was done with France, she went in Switzerland and learnt how to make chocolate. Jane didn't come in Switzerland, having too much to do in the police academy.

Then she went in Belgium, Germany, Denmark, Britain, and finally Spain. It was quick, she just stays the time to learn about the specialties of each countries before coming back to New-York to live with Jane.

They found easily their apartment, but Jane was finishing the police academy and couldn't find a police station to accept her. Moussa tried to convince his boss to give her a chance, but the man was categorical, there were better persons for this job. And the bad idea happened, she decided to train for the army and went in Somalia with Lucas and Beverly. She wished she convinced her to not do it.

She heard Jane's stomach gurgling and looked down at her with a smile. Jane had her eyes wide opened, surprised by the sound.

- "I think I'm hungry," told Jane.

- "I think too," chuckled the redhead.

The brunette straightened and kissed her girlfriend before breaking the hug and standing. Max sighed of laziness, watching Jane putting a pair of jeans and a tee-shirt. The brunette smiled to her and held out her hands to help her to stand. Max sighed again but let Jane getting her out of the bed.
