love is blind

He smiled... he went downstaris and popped some microwave popcorn and brought it up. "want some?"

She turned over to face him. "No thanks."

He dug into the popcorn, savoring every bit, and then slowly chewing it front of Jasmins bruised face slowly to annoy her.

She stuck out her tongue at him and rolled back over to go to sleep.

Paul fel asleep net to her, eventually drifing an arm over her back and stomach during his sleep.

She had awoken in the middle of the night and found his hand had drifted north of her stomach. She gently moved it down to back around her stomach.

Paul wasnt so much asleep then, but he went with the flow

She laid there wondering how long she could hold out. She rolled over onto her back, looking up at the ceiling. She could hear his father stumbling upstairs to go to bed. She admitted to herself she was a little scared of him.

Paul had troubling keeping his hands fof of her, but his self-control allowed him to keep away from it...

She drifted back to sleep as she wrapped her leg around one of his.

Paul fell completely asleep

The next morning Jasmin woke up. She snuck out of bed and into the bathroom to see the damage done to her eye. She sighed as she saw the bruise around it. It still hurt when she gently touched it. She grabbed her pocketbook and tried to hide it best she could, surprisingly she did a good job.

Paul followed her to the bathroom. "Where'd the bruise go?" he asked.

She jumped, surprised by his voice. She turned to face him. "Magic." She grinned as she held up her compact of make up.

"errr... what?"

"I covered it up."

"Oh..." he wished he had understood that before, it seemed so obvious now...

She put the make up away and walked back into his bedroom. It was only 8 a.m.

"Early morning... good ain't it?"

"No, I'm still sleepy." She grinned and stretched, her shirt rising on her stomach as she stretched her arms above her head.
