The City of Astan [2]

Bella

I smile, wrapping both arms around his neck, my one not hurting so much anymore because I just sprained it.

Ace

I move an arm around her and pull myself closer, smiling back.

Bella

He pulls himself closer and I finger his belt, slowing the kiss.

Ace

I move to kiss her neck when she slows the kiss, trailing up and back to her lips before rolling over.

Bella

I move a hand to the back of his head and keep my eyes closed, smiling.

Ace

I smile back at her, pulling her closer.

Bella

I smile, my mind going blank.

***FADEOUT***
Time lapse: 3 hours

Ace

I wake, smiling still, and stretch. Wrapping my arms back around Bella, I close my eyes and rest my forehead against hers in wait of her awakening.

Bella

I wake in the morning and flash a smile at Ace, "Morning."

Ace

I open my eyes and smile, "Morning."

Bella

I open my eyes as well, smiling wider.

Ace

I kiss her forehead and keep my arms around her, "How's your arm?"

Bella

I bring my arm atop the covers and study it, finding it slightly bruised where it bends, "It's okay."

Ace

I nod and look over it before looking in her eyes again.

Bella

I flip on my back and trace my thumb over the tattoo on my shoulder, sighing.
