Chapter 75

"I...UH..." SHE mumbles as she stares at us, "Andrea was wanting to get some pictures before the end of the night. I just thought I'd let you guys know." I call out to her, "Emily—" She quickly scurries back inside and the doors slams shut behind her. I let out a heavy sigh as I take a step towards the doors but Chase grabs onto my arm. "You don't have you explain yourself to her, Hayden." Chase says as he stares up at me, "I told her how I felt for you when I picked her up earlier this evening. This shouldn't surprise her." "But I didn't tell her. She just saw your hands all on my ass and I should've let her know that what was going on between us was more important than I led on." I explain as I glance between Chase and the door, "I need to make sure she doesn't get the wrong idea—that I lied to her." "Your kindness terrifies me." Chase explains as he wraps a hand around the  back of my neck, "It surprises the shit out of me everytime because I'm not use to it." "Ha ha, you are so funny." I laugh sarcastically and roll my eyes as I lean down and peck his lips, "I'll met you back inside." "I just want to go back to the hotel." Chase whines like an adorable little child and I giggle while running a hand through his hair. "I'll be quick and then we can leave." I say before taking a step back and leaving his arms. I pick up the front of my dress as I quickly run after Emily. When I stumble inside, I look left and right before deciding to check the nearest female bathroom. And call me Sherlock fucking Holmes because that's where I found her. She was standing at the sink, her eyes red from crying and she was wiping the running makeup for her cheeks. She stares at me through the reflection of the mirror when I enter. I offer a soft smile, "Hey, Emily." "I'm sorry for barging in on you two." Emily apologises as she drops her eyes from mine. I awkwardly step towards her, not sure how to deal with this situation. "Andrea thought you guys were fighting and wanted to get pictures. I offered to find you guys." "No, I'm the one who's sorry. I didn't mean for you to find out that way. I didn't know we were going to get back together, let alone tonight of all nights." I explain as I walk over to the vanity and lean against it beside her. "But I hope you do respect that we're in a relationship now." "Of course." Emily sniffles as she smiles softly at me, "Why wouldn't I?" Ah, maybe the fact that you've been clinging onto Chase even though he told you he had feelings for me. I keep my catty thoughts at bay and instead smile up at her. "I don't know," I shrug casually before my smile becomes a little too sweet to be genuine,  "I was just thinking how it would just be a real shame if anything got in my way. You understand, right?" Emily's smile falters and he eye twitches slightly. But she keeps her composure and nods, "Of course, Hay." "Great, now, let's go get those pictures." I beam as I turn towards the door, "Are you coming?" "I'll catch up with you." She shakes her head as I nod in understanding before walking out of the bathroom and down the hall. I was smiling now and I had a little more pep in my step than I did before. I was beginning to feel like myself again. It felt fucking great. ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ * "Chase..." I pant and scrape my fingers down the plane of his back. Chase continues to thrust against me and I wrap my legs around his waist, my ankles crossing and locking him in. His mouth runs along my neck and shoulder. Chase groans against my skin, "Fuck." The sheets underneath us were so soft with the comforter and most of the pillows on the floor. Somehow, through our love making, we ended up with our heads at the foot of the bed and our feet at the headboard. "Har...harder." I breath out as one of my hand moves from his back to his head and I dig my fingers through the curl of his hair. He sucks against the skin of my neck, no doubt making a mark. He thrusts deeper and my head rolls back as I moan out loudly. The pressure was building inside me, higher and higher. I squeeze around him as I grip onto the sheets on either side of my head. Chase lifts himself off me and hovers above me, one hand on the bed and the other gripped onto my hips. I moan out as he rocks against me, one powerful thrust after the other. His hair was hanging down in front of his eyes and he focuses his gaze on where we were joining. His pace quickens as I move up and down atop the mattress.
