He continued down her neck to the edge of her shirt before climbing back up. He was slow, listening to her heartbeat. It was beating fast which made him smirk a little as his lips met her neck once again.
One on One - Romance - So very cliche because I need it right now
She gasped softly as he hit a sensitive patch on her neck. "Oh God right there…" She bit her lip harshly to avoid speaking any further.
His smirk widenedas his lips met the spot again… And again… And again… Each time he did, he whispered her name. He thought back to earlier that day where his lips had found the same spot.
She felt a small wave of deja Vu but it was drowned out by the shockwaves of his lips against the sensitive spot on her neck. "Mmm…How are you so good at this?" She mumbled.
"I mean," he broke away to look at her, "I've had a girlfriend before. I didn't love her this much though."
"Oh…" Her face flushed red. "Well, that explains it. As you can tell from the awkwardness, I've never…had a boyfriend."
He chuckled. "Well, I'm glad I'm your first. To be honest, I've had a few past girlfriends. They were all in love with the stars like I am. Which is why I thought I loved them. And they thought they loved me. It all was so boring… Not like this. We knew the same stuff and yeah. It just. Didn't end well."
"The star boy only dating star girls? Yeah, that makes sense." She giggled. "And then the art girl came around and suddenly everything changed."
"Yeah, you made things interesting and… Unpredictable. They loved the stars, yes, but I was not a star to them. While you, love," he brought their foreheads together, "are more than all the stars to me."
She smiled a little. "How sweet. I'm just an unpredictable person in general. I tend to do things on a whim which can get me in trouble." She laughed.
He thought for moment. "Hmm. Never had a.troublesome girlfriend before. They were all goody-two-shoes. Kinda like me I guess."
"I'm not a bad girl but I ain't no complete angel either." She shrugged with a smile.
Jackson chuckled. "But angels are boring sometimes."
"Well then, this should be entertaining for you, now won't it?" She smirked slightly, a thousand thoughts running through her head.
"Less entertaining and more… Like stargazing. Oh, so refreshing and lovely." He smiled. "But I mean, it can be entertaining at some points, sure."
"It's like having a first girlfriend all over again. You have to learn an entirely new type of person."
"It is." He looked back up at the sky, watching as the stars watched them. "You know, the stars are actually really interesting. More interesting than most human. I guess that's why I never had many friends. I was always outside looking up instead of inside watching so many bad decisions being made." He wasn't sure why he said it, but he did. And he didn't feel like taking it back. He didn't feel like he needed to.
"I could say I'm the same way. I was always looking out rather than around me. Friends? Pfff, who needs friends when I have a gorgeousness I can hold forever? And to this day I still get really pissy when people walk in front of me when I'm drawing because it breaks my focus and it's super difficult to get that back and when I finish the drawing never comes out as good as I hoped because I know I broke focus. No one else notices except me, though."
"Yeah, I mean-"
A voice came from the window. "Jackson?" There were tears in the voice.
He sighed, looking to Ivy. "I ought to go check on her."
She smiled softly. "You do that. I'll be waiting." She kissed his cheek and laid back down, just staring up at the sky.
"Okay." He stood carefully and found his way to the window, climbing back inside. He found Amelia standing just outside the room, dark circles under her eyes. "Hey there, Amelia."
"What were you doing on the roof?"
"I was star gazing."
She didn't question him about the roof after that. She knew about the stars. She did, however, have questions. "Where are we?"
"My… Friend's house."
"This doesn't look like Zavian's house."
He scoffed. "I have friends other than Zavian, you know."
A smirk tugged on the edges of her lips. "I don't believe you."
Ivy crawled over to the edge and looked inside, hanging upside down. She didn't say anything, just watched, making sure she wouldn't fall off and die.
"Well, you should."
They stood for a moment as her smile faded.
"Come here." He motioned her for her to come over, opening up his arms.
She made her way over and buried her head in his chest. His arms wrapped around her. She didn't seem to be crying, but he wouldn't know until he let go. And at the moment, he didn't want to.
She leaned in closer to get a better look but overestimated her balance and fell forward off the roof. "What the-?! Shit!" She grabbed onto the windowsill quickly. "Oh my God that was too close!" She laughed. She was now dangling three floors above the ground which wasn't even a solid ground, it was down onto a rose bush.
Jackson practically jumped five feet in the air in surprise. "Ivy!" He ran to the window, leaving Amelia to her own surprise, and grabbed her by the wrist, pulling her into the room.
She gasped to catch her breath, heart pounding in sudden adrenaline. "Thanks, I thought for sure I'd fall." She blew her hair out of her eyes.
"Well, I mean, you did. Just not all the way." He was really glad she didn't. He took a second to let his heart slow down seeing as it seemed to be beating out of his chest.
"Relax love, at least I'm alive." She chuckled and kissed his cheek.
He chuckled a little with her. "Yeah, I guess, but-"
"'Friend?'" His sisters voice came from behind them. He turned to look at her. He was expecting a smirk on her face, but instead, it was full of something else.
Hurt?
"Amelia, this is Ivy. My girlfriend."
She waved shyly. "Wassup." Ahhh, new people I don't like it. The slight confidence that she was able to get around Jackson instantly disappeared and she shrunk back into the shy quiet artist everyone else knew.
