Get Me Back on Skates
5. Why tell the truth when you can lie?
"Anya," he whispered strongly into my ear. "Anya!" My head shot up and my eyes widened. I never realized what I'd gotten myself into. My face was less than inches away from Tyler Seguin's, his eyes just as wide as mine. The blood on his face had dried up, but the bruise was more visible than before. I concentrated on the sudden silence, but I felt a heartbeat get stronger and stronger as our breath filled the air.
It didn't take me long to realize that it wasn't my own heartbeat I was feeling, it was Tyler's. He looked right at me like he did when we met this morning, and, immediately, I felt safe, like nothing could hurt me.
After a minute of blushing and staring desperately at him, I began to wonder how I could feel his heart beat. That's when I looked around to see exactly how he managed to get my legs around his waist and my head resting on his bare chest. His arms were wrapped tightly around me, one hand on my neck, and the other extremely close to my ass, but I didn't bother to move it. As we cuddled in bed a few minutes more, I felt Tyler pull the blankets tighter around us. I moved closer to him and put my head on his shoulder, so I could feel his heartbeat again. I easily saw the tattoo that stretched down his arm, but I wasn't appalled like I usually was towards boys with tattoos. He noticed me examining it and let me rest my hand on his arm.
Five minutes later he was on top of me, kissing greedily down my neck. My shirt found it's way to the floor, and his lips found their way to mine. He tightened his jaw as I let my tongue linger in his mouth a few seconds too long.
"Anya! What the hell is going on!?" Em burst through the door and ripped off the blankets that were somehow still on top of me and Tyler. She groaned with disgust, and I found out why when I saw his maple leaf- printed boxers.
"You took off your pants?" I was just as shocked as Em. Tyler replied with a sheepish smile.
"I-uh- got kinda hot, and didn't want to be all sweaty."
"Wait," Em interrupted. "Did you two just-"
"Hell no!" My eyes widened in shock at the thought.
"Tell me the truth.'' Believe me, I did my best to think of the truth, because I honestly don't know how we ended up like this.
"Anya was walking to school, and I passed her in the park. Out of nowhere, she fainted, and I ran over to help her. She told me where she lives, so brought her back here. She has a horrible fever, and she's been in and out of consciousness. Just a minute ago, she started hyperventilating, and she almost stopped breathing. I was just about ready to start CPR when you came in," Tyler saved my ass...again. "Wait, how are you in here? Why are you in here? You can't just run into people's houses!" Em was shocked.
"What are you talking about? This is my apartment! Anya and I share it, didn't she tell you? I called back here to make sure she actually wasn't here, but you picked up the phone. I didn't know how you got in here, so I ran back here to make sure Anya was okay."
"Oh."
