—chapter xi: of charlie and ray

LORAINE AND CHARLIE stumbled into her room. they had almost been caught by dr hager, who had been patrolling the halls. charlie had been insistent on visiting the washroom, so he could get rid of the lipstick marks on his cheeks.

still high on adraneline they laughed at each other while breathing heavily. "that was—" loraine began, not quite finding the right words

"awesome" charlie finished, brightly smiling at the girl

when they had both caught their breath, they looked at each other. not one of them muttering a single word

"can i try something?" loraine suddenly asked and charlie nodded. normally she was never that bold, but running away and nearly getting caught seemed to have made her brave.

she stepped closer to the boy, her right hand slowly gliding to his neck. he could feel her breath on his cheek, while his eyes watched her attentively, his head lowered, as he was a bit taller than her.

loraine's eyes had wandered from her right hand back to her left one, that was connecting with charlie's chest, before her eyes found his.

he could feel the low pressure she was performing on his neck, that drew him impossible closer to her

her eyes closed and opened fast, as if to ask for a silent okay. he nodded. then their lips connected for the second time this night.

the kiss was slow. almost innocent. his hands found their way onto her waist, while she played with the hair in the nape of his neck.

neither of them had ever felt something like this before. their kissing lasted longer than humanly possible and was accompanied by the attempt to pull each other even closer. it was even better than the first kiss in the dark of the forest.

they broke the kiss, breathing heavy, both looking at each other in anticipation.

loraine opened her mouth, she wasn't sure what she wanted to say, but before any words came out, charlie had made a quick move forward and captured her lips between his again. and maybe that was all she wanted to say too.

this time the kiss was rough and even more passionate. kissing between them felt like being touched after years. it was intoxicating and somehow never enough. her knees were close to giving in, when charlie decided to enter her mouth with his tongue, but he held her close to his body, so she couldn't fall from his embrace.

they forgot all that was happening around them, almost as if they couldn't concentrate on anything else but kissing. they still stood in the middle of the room, before charlie, daunting as he was, made the decision to press loraine against the wall, which made her mutter a sudden moan and led to him smirking.

when they broke the kiss again, charlie started to temper her neck with kisses, never ever leaving the time for her to breath properly as every single touch from him would make her utter some kind of sound.

when he had found a spot he was particularly fond of, right beneath her collarbone, he lingered for a bit longer. loraine shrieked at the effect the kiss was having on her and pressed him even closer by the neck. "shit" she muttered and charlie smirked once again.

they continued this play for a few more minutes, switching between kissing the neck and kissing each other.

they just couldn't stop and neither of them wanted, but suddenly there was a knock at the door. loraine shrieked in pain, as charlie accidentally bit on her lip. they both shared a panicked gaze, wondering who was in front of the door and how much they had heard.

loraine pointed at the closet in the back of the room and charlie complied silently.

she walked through the room and opened the door. "hey" she said surprised when she recognized cameron

"hi" cameron tried to look into the room and looked skeptical as he noticed her smeared lipstick "have you seen charlie?"

"no" loraine shrugged "why would i?"

"i don't know" cameron replied unsure, his eyes wandering through the room behind the girl. "he followed you outside, so i thought you might know where he went"

"i didn't see him" loraine shrugged "i'm sure he will be there later, you know charlie, he's probably outside and forgot the time, i wouldn't worry"

"i'm not worrying" cameron said defensively, forgetting that the girl in front of him looked flustered "just don't want to get into trouble because of the moron"

"i'll make sure to tell him that if i see him"

cameron pointed at her while he nodded, then he turned around and walked down the hall.

loraine closed the door and made sure to lock it this time, she wouldn't want the next person knocking to just walk in.

charlie stumbled out of the closet. his lips still swollen and his smug smile still as active as ever.

"oh so you haven't seen me?" he asked rhetorically

loraine rolled her eyes "did you want me to tell him the truth?"

"depends on what you would declare as the truth" charlie stepped closer, reducing the distance between them "yes cameron" he spoke in a high pitched voice "charlie came around to talk and now he's hiding in my closet because we thought you were my father" he came even closer "or yes cameron, he's in the closet" his mouth stopped right next to her ear, before he began to whisper "and he's hiding because i was moaning his name just a mere second ago"

even loraine had a smug smile plastered on her face now. "i prefer the second one" she smiled

"good, me too" charlie laughed, then he became serious. "ray?" he asked softly "can i take off your dress?"

"yes" loraine nodded "that's the whole reason i bought it"

his hands slowly went behind her to drag down the zipper "you bought a dress just because of me?"

"i do everything just because of you"

"i didn't know you were thinking of me this much"

"all the time"

"i don't think i have thought of a single thing that didn't concern you since i was eleven" charlie grinned and loraine smiled at him and felt so much love that she worried her heart would burst

the dress fell to the ground with a huff. leaving her in just her underwear. charlie was stunned and his cheeks shined red.

"any more questions?" loraine asked

charlie shook his head, no. the next thing he knew was that loraine surely could set a record in how fast she took off his tie. next was his shirt, and it was as if a switch had been flipped, and the slow undressing turned into hungrily making out, while loraine fidgeted with the buttons of his shirt.

as soon as his shirt was gone, her hands found their way to the hem of his pants. she pulled him closer while simultaneously walking backwards toward the bed. just before she was the first to fall, she turned them around, making charlie land on the bed.

if he was surprised by the sudden turn, he didn't show it, because he aided her in taking off the pants as if his life depended on it, all while not breaking the kiss.

as soon as his pants hit the floor, his whole body was on the bed and she was in his lap as mere second after that. he turned them around fast and as smooth that she almost didn't notice. they broke the kiss, both catching their breaths. charlie hovered over her, looking down smiling.

"are you sure?" he asked "we can stop here, it's fine"

"i want this, charlie, i want you" loraine nodded "are you sure?"

"i don't think i've ever been more, just tell me if you change your mind, alright ray?"

she smiled at him, before they send each other another reassuring nod and his eyes left hers to bend down to search for the condom in his wallet.

"very thoughtful of you" loraine said sarcastically, thinking of all the other girls that were the real reason for him having it with him.

"not to be weird, but i kept it there for you" charlie admitted "for the actual slight chance you could eventually like me back"

"that is kinda weird" loraine grinned "but considering i bought the dress just for you to take off, somewhat fitting.  you were really sure of yourself weren't you?"

"quite the opposite, really"

"oh" loraine exclaimed, but then she shrugged "well you're gonna be after this" her hands pulled his face down to meet her lips in yet another passionate kiss. and if that didn't burst his ego he wasn't sure what could.

or maybe he was. definitely the minutes that came after, in which she was moaning his name, as quietly as possible, the walls weren't thin but they weren't thick either. the moments in which he was tempering her body with kisses and she would beg for all of him.

he was sure that there had never once been two people in love that were closer to each other than him and loraine in these moments. her hands were all over him, as was her lipstick, smeared all around his face, neck and stomach.

to loraine sex had always seemed like something dirty and sinful, something you should be ashamed of, most definitely if you weren't married to whomever you were sleeping with. but in reality it was quite the opposite. it was soft and beautiful and even if she had never done it before, everything felt right, because charlie was with her.

loraine watched as charlie adjusted his position next to her. he raised his arm, so she could lay on his chest. she leaned forward, giving him a quick peck, before she positioned her head on his chest.

their naked bodies were warm and soft under the covers.

"what would my father say if he could see me right now?" loraine asked

"that's really the first thing you're going to say?" charlie asked in fake offense "not 'oh my god charlie, that was the best sex of my life' or 'charlie, if i had known your body was this—"

"yeah, yeah" loraine interrupted "and for the record your imitiation of me is honestly an insult"

"charlie" charlie moaned trying to copy her earlier sounds

loraine rolled her eyes "charlie" she said, matching the high pitched tone he would use when he was trying to imitate her speaking "i might as well never sleep with you again, you sex—god"

"ha!" charlie exclaimed, ultimately ignoring what she was saying "you admit that i'm a god in bed? i'll take that as a win"

"you're not bad" she exclaimed "quite the potential for repetition"

"miss nolan" charlie smirked "you should be ashamed of all the sinful things you've done tonight"

"roleplay, huh?" loraine wiggled her eyebrows before she broke into a giggle

"oh god" charlie rubbed his face "i've ruined you"

"i think i was ruined before you seduced me" loraine said smiling "just ask harry, he was convinced i was in love with you before all this, so nothing much changed"

"nothing much changed?" charlie repeated in disbelief "you're indirectly telling me you are in love with me, when just today you called me your best friend to my face?"

"if you put it like that—"

"so you really are in love with me?"

"do you think i sleep with just everyone who asks to take off my dress?" loraine had nearly reacted offended at the pause, before she noticed that charlie was laughing. she slapped him and shook her head, laughing as well "of course i am, you idiot. and i thought i made that pretty clear in the forest earlier"

"it's still good to hear you say it and just for the record: i am also in love with you"

loraine smiled brightly at the boy. he was the only thing that mattered now. "i guess that means we are official now, right?"

"obviously" charlie nodded "i think somewhat you were always mine"

"it did take us way too long" loraine smiled sadly, while charlie just looked at her in silent contentment. "not to be that person, but i think you should better go, might as well quickly use my shower to lose the sex smell" she instructed

"you're an expert already, baby" charlie complimented "you're right, cameron might be daft but he isn't utterly stupid. i would ask you to join me, but i don't think i could control myself"

loraine giggled as she watched him climb out from under the covers and make his way into her small bathroom.

it took him about five minutes, before he was out again, using one of her towels to dry his hair. he extended his arm, catching his boxer-shorts when she threw them at him. he quickly got clothed, before he left a lingering kiss on her lips.

before he could leave the room, loraine called for him. "charlie?"

charlie turned around and looked at her, while admiring her beauty at the same time.

"what are you going to do about the newspaper?" she asked and charlie recognized the worry in her face.

he shook his head, slowly, before he came close to her again. he caressed her cheek softly "don't worry" he whispered "i'm going to fix it" without another word he was out of the room and closed the door behind him.

loraine knew that charlie was telling the truth. she was worried nonetheless, but happy at the same time.
