?Chapter 0379
Luke and Matt decided to take shifts keeping an eye on Selena. I didn''t think that she would be able to aplish much, and it seemed as though my words about the Luna opened her eyes a bit earlier, but I was still d to have my friends around to help with that. I would have done it myself, but I was utterly exhausted from everything. It had been almost forty-eight full hours of hardly any sleep, aside from the couple of hours that Enzo and I slept in Frank''s truck, and sleep was calling to me.
We decided to go back to Enzo''s apartment. I grabbed a few things from my apartment before walking over with him, and when we entered, I was immediately hit with a wave of nostalgia. It had felt like an eternity since I hadst set foot in this ce, even though it had really only been a month.? 2024 N?v/el/Dram/a.Org.
"Home sweet home," Enzo said, unlocking the door and swinging it open to reveal his dark, quiet, and oddlyforting dorm. "It''ll be good to get some sleep. You hungry? Need to shower?"
I nodded to both of those things. I was starving, filthy, andpletely exhausted. Enzo directed me to the shower while he figured out dinner, and after standing beneath the hot water for upwards of twenty minutes and allowing it to wash away almost all of my worries, I returned to the living room wearing nothing but one of Enzo''s oversized t-shirts to see that Enzo had ordered a pizza and brought out a bottle of wine. He had the television on with a movie picked out, and had ordered some sides with the pizza.
"You didn''t have to do all of this," I said with a chuckle as I approached, drying my damp hair still with a towel.
Enzo shrugged. "I was hungry, and I know you are, too," he said gently. "And besides... I know you haven''t been eating well since... Well, since everything. I''d like to change that."
I couldn''t help but smile. Enzo was right; ever since what happened with Edward, my appetite had been nothing but an uphill battle. I had lost a visible amount of weight, and it was getting to the point where I could feel the toll it was taking on my body. Even though things weren''t quite back to "normal" yet, and I honestly wondered if that would ever really even be possible, I was ready to have a small sense of normalcy in my life. And if that sense of normalcy began with eating pizza and drinking wine in Enzo''s apartment, then I was d for it.
For a long time, we sat and watched the movie that Enzo picked out and ate too much pizza. By the time it was finished, I felt full and satisfied, and snuggled up against Enzo on the couch.
"I''m really d to have you back," I said, looking up at him from where Iid on his chest.
Enzo smiled down at me. "I''m d to be back, too," he said quietly.
There was a bit of a silence. I bit my lip and sat up, and looked at Enzo with some intensity. "Promise you won''t go anywhere dangerous without me again."
Enzo raised his eyebrows, but nodded anyway. He reached out and took my hand, rubbing it with his thumb as he gazed into my eyes. "I won''t go anywhere," he said gently.
*Promise?"Update first atN?velDráma. Org.
*Promise."
A few moments passed where Enzo and I just looked at each other in silence. The movie had ended a while earlier, and now the room was dark and quiet again. Being here, with him, filled me with a sense offort; and when his eyes traveled hungrily down my body as I sat in front of him, I couldn''t control myself any longer.
With a grin, I suddenly grabbed him by the neck and pulled myself onto hisp, straddling him. As I did, I heard a surprised groan escape his lips; but before he could say anything, I twisted my hips down into hisp, causing him to moan again, and kissed him deeply.
The energy between us was like static electricity. His touch was intoxicating, sending waves of pleasure coursing through my body. I could feel the warmth of his hand on the small of my back, pulling me closer, as if he couldn''t bear to have even an inch of space between us. I surrendered to the sensation, melting into his embrace, losing myself in the depths of his passion.
In one swift movement, Enzo threw me down onto the couch and pressed himself on top of me. Our kisses grew more urgent, fueled by an undeniable hunger. As his hands roamed over my body, tracing the curves and contours, I could feel the heat building within me, an ache that only he could satisfy. The world around us ceased to exist as we became entangled in each other, our bodies moving in perfect harmony.
