Quickly and Quietly

Eve awoke to the memory of Dante’s lips on hers. She opened her eyes groggily and saw Dante proped up on one elbow watching her.

“Morning Sunshine.” He said.

“Morning.” She mumbled still half asleep. “Why.. are you watching me?”

“You looked so peacful when you sleep I couldn’t resist.” Dante answered, looking away sheepishly.

“That’s so sweet.” I told him, kissing him. Last night had been blissful. We talked and kissed well into the night. I ended up falling asleep in his arms.

Just then there was movement upstairs. “Mom” Eve whispered. She didn’t feel like getting caught having just spent the night with Dante. Eve went upstairs and came back quickly. “Coast is clear. Let’s get you out of here before mom catches us.”

Dante nodded and they crept up the stairs together. Eve opend the front door for Dante as quietly as she could.
“Goodbye!” Eve whispered.

“Thanks for a wonderful night, Eve.” Dante whispered back. He kissed her before he turned and sprinted away. Eve closed the door smiling.
