We got in the elevator and the moment the doors closed, he had me pinned against the wall. I gasped the moment his hands touched my waist. There we were... just looking at each other. His hand glided from my waist, over my stomach, between my breasts and cupped my cheek.
I know I'm not supposed to, but I leaned in to his touch. I couldn't breathe. "I can't be without you," he said with tears in his eyes. "I don't want to. I'm broken without you. I don't know what to do or how to go on when I know that you can be with someone else. I don't want you to be with someone else. I want you to be with me. It's just that... I can't seem to let you go. I know you said that you need time, and call me selfish, but I don't want to give you time. I want to give you all of me," he said as a tear fell down my face.
He brushed the tear away from my cheek and cupped both my cheeks and leaned his forehead against mine. I was crying... I can't deny what I feel for him. I want to tell him that I love him. I want to tell him that I want all of him. I want to tell him that I want to give all of myself to him.
"I want to take it all. I want to have all of you. But I don't want to force you into something that you're not ready for or something you clearly don't want -"
"But I do want it. I want you. And I don't care if I have to say it thousands of times, I don't care if I have to jump off a bridge, I don't care about anything. All I want... All I need... is you, Amabel. Please, give me one more chance. I can't do this without you."
"I want to believe you... I really want to but," I said and then he kissed me. His lips were soft and gentle. His kiss was slow and wet. The need I felt for him in my heart was overwhelming.
"No more thinking..." he said out of breath and kissed me again. "No more talking..." he said again and then kissed me. He spoke with his lips pressed against mine. "Just us..." and then he didn't stop kissing me. He kissed my neck over and over. I moaned out loud and immediately bit my lip to stop myself.
"Don't bite your lip," he whispered and sucked on my earlobe. Going back to save my lip he kissed me, sucking gently on my bottom lip before giving it a gentle bite.
"Come with me today. No work. No people. Just us. You and me. What do you say?" he asked with our breathing slowly slowing down.
"I can't. Your dad has a meeting at two o'clock. I'll see you at dinner."
"I'll pick you up after work," he said, rubbing my lower back.
"Gwen is taking me home. Can you pick me up from there?"
"Okay. I do mean it. I miss you. I can't be without you, Amabel. I... I really need you," he said. Was he just going to say that he loves me? I have to get off this elevator.
The doors opened a while ago and he kissed me one more time before letting me step off the elevator. "Trevor..." I called before the doors closed again.
"Yes?"
"Don't hurt him..." I said with a smile.
"Who?"
"Caleb. He means well. Leave him alone, please..."
"Okay," he said with a smile and then the doors closed. I felt butterflies all over my body. My lips are still tingling from his kiss. My body is still flushed from his touch. He was going to say the L-word. Was he?
"Good morning. You look happy," Ella said. I started blushing and kept walking to my desk.
"Amabel? What happened?" she asked me. I put my bags down and started setting up my laptop. You know, the usual. Getting my iPad ready, my notebook, my phone... Everything...
"Trevor kissed me," I said. Shock... That was her facial expression. Pure shock.
"He did what?"
"Well, I had to let him walk me to the office, before he killed Caleb."
"The downstairs Caleb? Why?"
I sighed and then got reminded of his kisses one more time. "Well, Caleb kissed me yesterday," I began.
"Holy shit!" she exclaimed.
"It was one kiss. Besides, it was on my cheek and it meant nothing. He just did it to say 'happy birthday'. He was busy apologizing for making me uncomfortable with the kiss and then Trevor came out of the building and heard what we were talking about. He raised his fist... I had to stop him. So, I dragged him by the hand onto the elevator and then he kissed me..."
She was smiling brightly. Why was she smiling? Wait, did she and Trevor have a thing? Because that would be totally weird.
"How did he do it?" she asked.
"Ella!"
"What? I'm single. I have no other way to experience these kinds of things. Come on, Bells. Give me the details... Please?" she asked making puppy eyes.
"No..."
"Did he pin you against the wall? Damn, that's just so hot."
"Ella, first of all, I have to start getting to work. Second of all, I haven't had any coffee this morning, which reminds me... Do you want some?" She shook her head and gave me a mm-hmm...
"Thirdly, if you must know... Yes... He did pin me against the wall..." I said starting to blush all over again. I turned around to see Ella's mouth wide open. I chuckled to myself and walked to the kitchen.
"Amabel... There's something more that happened. I know there is... Go on, spill it..."
