I woke up with Carter hugging me, his huge hands were closed over my stomach as if he would not allow me to escape.
We had taken advantage of his release from the hospital, and what started as a single kiss ended with both of us lying on the bed until our bodies wouldn't let us do any more.
The light of dawn was filtering through my window and I knew I had to get on my feet so I could go to the academy. I didn't know if Carter would go, maybe he didn't even care, he had been absent for a month because of his injuries and at the academy they seemed to be glad he was gone.
I put my hands in his, trying to pull them away over my body, but in a moment Carter pulled them tighter together and moved me towards him, so I could feel his warm skin on my back.
He started to move his hands down my stomach and I knew I had to stop him, I didn't know where he was getting so much energy from after doing it most of the night.
