I’ll Reach For You

Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 35

Do I really have to beg?
We are sitting in the car outside my aunt and uncle’s house. It’s an old, big brick house, the house looks so scary that it could have been in a horror movie. There is room enough for all of us, but I am going to tell them that Hunter and I can share. It will be fewer rooms to clean for my aunt, that’s my excuse at least. But Hunter can’t sleep without me, feels more like I am the one that can’t sleep without her.

I just need her everything, her cuteness, warmth, softness and I want to hear her say she loves me before we fall asleep. The one person I am looking forward to see is grandma. I am so excited to tell her, and she is the only one I can tell in my family. Others would just freak out and gossip to dad. But grandma, his mom, she is amazing, the only one that can keep secrets and wise enough to do it.

“Skylar,” I turn to look at her, watching me.

“I’m sorry for ruining your daydream, but we are going to stay here for the weekend and I am not sure how much time we can spend together, when your family is like, everywhere.” Hunter and I look at all of the cars standing on my aunt’s parking lot. I have two aunts and two uncles, and then including their partner and children. My grandma is here, and my parents. This is going to be a long weekend. I look at Hunter. Maybe not that long.

“Come here.” I say, she chuckles and lean over, close enough for me to be only inches away from her tasteful lips. She is teasing me right now.

“A little closer.” I whisper. She shakes her head with a grin and say.

“I did my part, now you have to do yours.” She tease, I can’t but smile.

“Do I really have to beg?” I whisper, and she bites her lower lip. Hunter’s eyes and a smile changed, in the way that just have to make me give in.

“Dammit Hunter.” I whisper, and lean in those few inches that have been killing me for the last few seconds. Tasting her have finally fulfilled my need, she nibbles on my lower lip and then bite and move back.

“Goddammit Hunter.” I say irritated, she let my lip go and sneak a fast kiss. She looks at me and grins. Then the thought hit me, the one I have been thinking about for a while, and I want to ask her to be sure.

“Hunter?” She moves back, noticing the worry in my voice and eyes.

“Yeah?” She looks unsure and skeptical. My heart wants to go out of my chest and I can’t breathe right. I take a deep breath and force myself to ask.

“Are you my girlfriend?” I ask shaky. Hunter snorts.

“Dammit Skylar.” She moves back to me and cup my face.

“Why do you have to scare me so much?” She smile, and I shrug. Then she says.

“If you want me to be yours, then yes, but for me you already are.” I breathe out in relived, and I can’t but smile.

“Then you are mine.” I answer, she kisses my cheek.

“I will always be yours.”

Hunter goes behind the car and comes back with our bags.

“Thank you.” I say and reach out to take it.

“No, I got it. Just lead the way.” I nod and start walking to the front door. Before I could even knock my aunt open the door and swing her arms around me.

“Jenn, you are smothering me.” I try to breath.

“Sorry.” She lets me go, and look behind me.

“So, this is the famous Hunter.” She says, I turn to look at Hunter. She has a shy smile as always when she meets unfamiliar people. She looks so adorable now that I really want to kiss her, dammit Hunter.
