Chapter 47: Chapter 47

CHAPTER 47

Laying on her bed, Sara looked straight at the ceiling thinking of her discussion with Christian some days ago.

Yeah, the discussion they had had that new year night, still remained fresh in her memory.

His impending leave to Seattle for his new job, his decision to take her with him, amongst other things just couldn’t let her think straight or focus these days at the shelter.

She didn’t even know what was wrong with her, and she hated this feeling of doubt, worry and anxiety so much.

Well, maybe it was the fact that she was turning 17 in a month’s time, or it was just post menstrual stress, or the fact that right now she was so broke, she didn’t even know.

Everything just looked funny and she laughed absent mindedly.

Turning and tossing on her bed, it was 7pm already and it seemed Ariel was working overtime today because she was not yet back.

She was bored, tired and hungry, yes she was but the actual truth was that she missed Christian.

It was three days, since she saw him last and honestly she was Christian sick!

Laughing she brought out her very beautiful phone ironically and pressed the speed dial.

Of course he was on speed dial, since her screen was spoilt and the screen buttons on the phone was bad, they couldn’t text consistently and only calls kept them through in times like this.

His line ringed three times, and then he picked up immediately.

“Hello my baby.” She heard his thick sexy voice at the end of the phone, and she felt butterflies in her tummy.

“Hey.” She said in a rush, she didn’t even know what to say.

Even after all their familiarity, intimacy and all, for God’s sake, she had slept with him, yet she still felt shy.

“How are you? Hope you’re good?” He asked her, “Yes, yes I’m fine and you?”

“Same. Miss me?”

“No I don’t miss you silly. I just wanted to hear your voice.” She said and he chuckled.

“You just want to hear my voice and you don’t miss me. Be deceiving yourself my love. Well, I know you’re probably pouting your lips right now, aren’t you?” He asked again and true to his words she was.

This was what made them special.

Their ability to read each other even with the distance, and her heart squeezed in pain a little, as her thoughts went to Seattle yet again.

She knew, she couldn’t even bear the thought of him leaving.

“Hello. Sara, my love can you hear me.” Christie said on the other end, and she came back from her wandering thoughts.

“Yeah, yeah I can hear you of course, I’m not deaf.” She said bluntly.

“Hey, hey, calm down. What’s wrong with you? Why are you being all sarcastic and blunt? Is everything okay? You’re not sounding nice at all.” He said and she just sighed.

Honestly, she didn’t even know what was wrong with her too.

“I don’t know, I don’t know, Christian. Nothing’s wrong with me.”

“Okay, if you say so. So???......” He trailed of at the other end and she smiled.

When he talked like this, she knew he wanted to say something important to her, or something awkward maybe, maybe she just didn’t know.

“So what?” She asked him.

“I…. I don’t know, if you can come over this weekend again. I miss you, and my sheets are so cold without you in it.” He said, stammering and finishing with a slow tune in his voice that had her clenching her panties.

Since that night, his birthday night were she had willingly given him her virginity, as a gift they had not had sex since then.

She missed the feeling of him inside her, at first it had been painful as it was her first time, but he had been so gentle coaxing her with soft kisses, shutting her moans of pain and pleasure and she couldn’t wait to sleep with him again.

They had done two rounds, with the second less painful, and she had enjoyed herself, even orgasming in seconds and then he had came right after, spilling inside her, her legs shaking blissfully.

She couldn’t even wait to cuddle him, she so much missed him, but…….

“Christian, I’m not sure I would be able to come this weekend.” She said and it took a while before he answered, “I don’t understand, why can’t you come?”

“I stayed with you last weekend, I’m not sure if the matron would allow me come visit you this weekend again, till next week.”

“Oh…..” He said, pausing before continuing in a whisper, “Can’t you sneak and come?”

“You must be joking.” She replied him, chuckling and rolling her eyes.

“I’m serious, I don’t know what’s making you laugh, mon cherie, but I’m serious. If I don’t see you this weekend, I’m literally going to kill myself.”

“Stop saying that, it’s not funny.” She said and continued laughing.

“I don’t know what’s making you laugh honestly.” He said and she didn’t even stop, she just continued laughing.

“The way you are being, all childish, whispering, it’s funny honestly.”

“Hmmm, let’s not divert the talk, can you sneak and come over?” He asked again, “No, I can’t.”

“Sara, don’t do this too me, it’s just three days, I’ve not seen you and I’m already missing you like this. I’m very busy at work that’s why I want you to come over this weekend, so we can chill and have fun.”

“Hmmm, chill and have fun, fun doing what heh?” She asked, “I don’t even know, but we’ll just chill and have fun.” He said again and she laughed again.

“Fuck! I miss the sound of your voice, your laughter, I miss everything about you, in just this short period, I’m fucking taking you to Seattle with me, nothing’s going to stop that, because damn Sara, I can’t even last a day without you, without thinking of you.”

‘Here we go again.’ Sara thought to herself at the mention of Seattle.

“Christian, can we not just talk about Seattle, please.” She said slowly, “Let’s face reality, Sara, let’s stop ignoring this. I want to begin the process of your leave from the orphanage. You’re the one stopping me.”

“Stopping you! Christian you know this is not easy for me too. I have a lot of things to consider here, I can’t just up and leave.”

“Up and leave, like seriously I’ll ask you this one last time. Sara, do you even want to go with me?”…………
