Curtains Close; Take a bow. I think we fooled all of them now.
Chapter 49 - Come A Little Closer, Tell Me Those Three Little Words
Rain's POV
The rain slammed into the window and the wind hurled itself against the rain. I was laid there in the darkness on these sheets, waiting for Oli to come inside and say something. He should have been sleeping beside me this evening, as Danny had planned. I heard somebody walking towards the door.
I listened to the breath behind the thick wooden door. My heart started to tumble inside me. I'd been waiting for months behind SJ's back to just get one kiss from him...
"I just wanted to say goodnight." Said Danny, holding a newspaper and a glass of whiskey. He looked around the room and then paused suddenly. "Where's Oli?"
I raised my eyebrow. "I don't know... wasn't he sitting on the front steps earlier?"
"Oh yeah. Jesus, if he's still there..." Danny raised up his wrist and checked his watch. "He would have been out there for... three hours! Christ. Get him to bed would you?" He laughed, closing the door gently on me.
I slipped on some socks to keep my feet warm. The floor boards were cold in this house. And they would creak as you walked across them. It was kinda creepy at night. I pulled myself out of bed and crept past the nursery, trying not to wake Hanley. Oli was sat with his back to the door, starring out into the forest. He had a glass of something in his hand.
"Oli?" I whispered, opening the door. A breeze blew up onto me and I grabbed my shirt and pulled down to reach the middle of my thigh. "Come inside. You must be cold out here." I shivered.
He smiled and looked back at me. "You come out here. Come and look at this."
I stepped out onto the concrete, shivering more now, and sat down beside him. He scooted slightly to the left. "What are we looking at?" I whispered.
"Shh..." He said, lifting up the drink from beside him. "You'll see."
I sat there with him for almost ten minutes, saying absolutely nothing. I played with my hair instead, too shy to ask him about our current relationship. I opened my mouth a few times, preparing to say something to him, but my breath just slurred out silently and made a gentle fog in front of my face. "Um..." I whispered, confused about what we were supposed to be looking at.
And then, right there, a deer ran out of the woods. It gracefully slowed down and stopped on the grass of our garden. It was so close to us, I was so surprised it hadn't seen us. And then, as if this one gorgeous deer wasn't enough, a smaller, baby deer frolicked behind her, stretching out it's spindly legs and being playful around it's mother.
"Isn't she beautiful?" He whispered, his voice so low and so romantic.
"Oh yes." I whispered, leaning in slightly closer to him.
"She reminds me of you." He smiled. "So strong and independent now."
I looked up into his stunning brown eyes. "I've been wanting to ask you..." I whispered, leaning in closer and closer to his chest.
"Don't ask me." He said sexually, lifting his hand up onto my shoulder. I could smell the alcohol on his breath. "Just find out..." He whispered into my ear, grabbing my leg and pulling me into his arms. He slowly reached his head forward closer to my face. "Ready?" His eyes flickered with true passion and love. My heart throbbed in my chest and my stomach flipped. "Ready." I whispered into his ear, the warm air rolling of my tongue and against the side of his cheek.
