I led her out to our overgrown back yard. Our yard keeper usually came every Friday but his wife was sick and since my parents rarely stayed home, I took the liberty of telling him to take off as much time as he needed.

We continued on walking until we reached tall maple trees. I made sure she wasn't too far behind me and ended up taking her hand into mine so she could keep at the same pace as me.
92Please respect copyright.PENANA1KImmrOmUL
Eventually, we reached the center of my family's garden. It was lined with hedges shaped into perfect squares. The garden was lined with roses, tulips and many more various colorful flowers that I had no idea the name of. I'm the center there was a fountain with a stone engraving of an angel playing a trumpet. It was quite beautiful.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAHmkbNIo0TN
"This is gorgeous." She said slowly turning to take in everything in the garden.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAmlZyJ4uiSb
"It is." I said watching her attentively. She never looked my way, she was enraptured with the vivid colors of the flowers.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAEiMzNVcERr
"This must've taken years to put together? Who upkeeps the garden?" She inquired.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAv34IKvrfiU
"George. He's been with us for year. He keeps up with the garden and the yard work."
92Please respect copyright.PENANAvIJIFKAafx
"Its so pretty out here. If I lived here I would never leave the garden." She said then turned over to me. We had some distance between us now and she walked towards the bench under the arch of the garden.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAFP1S2EvccE
"I like to come out here to sketch sometimes. It's relaxing."
92Please respect copyright.PENANAKf4ize0y9y
"It is quite calming. The sounds of the fountain and the wind. It's peaceful."
92Please respect copyright.PENANA96Any9HR15
We both stood under the decorated arch behind the fountain. She was still examining every detail of the garden and I quietly watched her.
92Please respect copyright.PENANA8X6oA5yj6O
"I thought you might like it. No one really comes out here but me."
92Please respect copyright.PENANAu9LyAqivLp
"Really?!"
92Please respect copyright.PENANAfCQYazvEld
"Yeah. I know I don't understand how you must be feeling, with your parents and leaving home. I know you'll tell me it's okay and you're fine, but if you ever want to be free to feel not fine, you can come here."
92Please respect copyright.PENANAm5ddAKisjW
She paused and looked at me. I didn't know what she was thinking in that moment because her face was unreadable. She looked like she was hesitating to say something and I wanted to tell her to open up, but I also wanted her to do it willingly so I just waited patiently for her response.
92Please respect copyright.PENANA9Q9iGlhc1C
"Thank you Ian. I'm sorry. Honestly. From the bottom of my heart I really truly cannot thank you enough. I promise this is temporary and I won't be leeching off of you. As soon as I raise enough money, I'll be gone." She finally spoke. She had that look again. That worry. Her eyes were glossy and she looked away maybe hoping I wouldn't see but I did. It hurt me to see her hurt.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAwsN4BHPRia
I placed my hand on her chin and lifted her head so her eyes would focus on mine. Her dark brown eyes were golden in the sunlight.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAKaMhTgBNCD
"Listen to me. Whether you need to stay here for two days or two years, I will support you. I don't want you to apologize or thank me anymore. I don't want you to feel like you need to leave as soon as possible or feel uncomfortable or like you don't belong and I don't want you to feel rushed to leave. This is your home now too."
92Please respect copyright.PENANA0r7B27LDhF
Her eyes were still locked on mine and held a calm expression. We stayed like this for a few more seconds until she broke our eye contact and caught me by surprise by embracing me into a tight hug.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAkpltZaPdrC
"Can I say thank you one more time?" She said muffled into my chest.
92Please respect copyright.PENANA3yIFwyA9cX
"Of course." I said grinning. She couldn't see though because her head was completely buried into my shirt.
92Please respect copyright.PENANA2t1Ewxs8Pc
After a short moment we separated and I noticed how quickly she attempted to dry up tears from her eyes. She was smiling so I knew that she was okay but it didn't feel right seeing her cry.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAwj77UMN688
"Thank you." She smiled at me and it automatically made me smile.
92Please respect copyright.PENANArZqDZGmmgk
"We should head back inside."
92Please respect copyright.PENANAolVbC3YEhC
"Okay."
92Please respect copyright.PENANALtHXVDsXSd
I bent down into a crouch in front of her and looked back.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAH7jYy1JTnS
"Get on."
92Please respect copyright.PENANAPfnXuKchir
"Your back?"
92Please respect copyright.PENANAEuBP3iu1bC
"Yes, get on."
92Please respect copyright.PENANAiUdLTVSwHh
She looked dumbfounded but listened regardless of whatever her mind was telling her and hopped on my back. I lifted her up and started walking back to the entrance of the garden. Once we reached open field I took the opportunity to use the open field as a track and started running back to the house. We stepped in a puddle and water splashed on my leg and some parts of Vee causing her to scream then laugh uncontrollably.
92Please respect copyright.PENANACuBi4qym2h
The sound of her laughter was like a symphony of music. It was a very rare occurrence but it was golden.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAWi6136R8EW
Once we reached the house we took our shoes off at the front so we didn't leave tracks on the white floors.
92Please respect copyright.PENANA1h5gimnLBr
"I think I should shower. I'm soaking wet." She said walking towards the stairs before briefly stopping to look back at me.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAVr3HUoks2L
"I think I need another shower too." I smiled. I followed behind her and she stopped after reaching the entrance of my room and the guest bedroom beside it. She turned to me and looked at me with curiosity.
92Please respect copyright.PENANA41niWdMspK
"Are we showering together?"
92Please respect copyright.PENANAFcWrYuCSjV
"That decision is completely up to you." I replied.
92Please respect copyright.PENANA5n2Kw4p11w
She stood there thinking hard, twiddling her thumbs between each other.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAtvnsqXfTIc
"I think we should...to preserve the water."
92Please respect copyright.PENANAhlS7CK9kZr
I laughed at her response and nodded. She wandered over to her room to collect clothing for after our shower and I did the same.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAkIw3dnNtKF
Even though I already showered, I didn't mind washing up again. Besides, with V as my company there weren't many things I wouldn't do.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAtEwAA9PCDE
I started the water and within seconds it was steaming hot, unlike the dorms where it would take minutes for the water to produce any kind of heat. Little things like that made me miss staying at home and commuting instead of living on campus. I placed my clothes on top of the counter and took two towels from the cupboard below the sink.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAtzZlqZef3W
I stripped my clothes off and tossed them onto the rug by the sink and turned the water temp down before stepping onto the wet tiles.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAVIFDPOyKID
The steam covered most of the glass door of the shower but I still could see V come in holding some folded clothing. I turned away and moved back from the door so that when she came in she wouldn't step on me. A few seconds later the glass door extended and she stood in front of me completely naked.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAzmd9MNzlQO
Fuck.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAu149tfwGSY
How do I control myself?
92Please respect copyright.PENANAldwoWscABB
Her curves were incredibly beautiful. Everything about her was. Every line, every mark, and every scar on her surface was.
92Please respect copyright.PENANA4T7mhqqe9U
She smiled at me shyly once I realized I was looking for a second too long. I began lathering my body with soap and she took her cloth and did the same. I closed my eyes and let the water hit my face and wash away all of the suds. As soon as my eyes flickered open I looked down to V who was seemed zoned out while scrubbing her body.
92Please respect copyright.PENANApmCZVt9Z3O
"You okay?"She snapped her head up to me after my question as if she was in a completely different place.
92Please respect copyright.PENANArJQUBQOcQ5
"Yeah."
92Please respect copyright.PENANAhCu8iRZviy
I tilted my head to the side before letting it go. I decided not to pry. I wanted today to be a good day for her. Maybe all she needed was a distraction right now.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAolEenfz95O
I took the cloth from her hands and she looked confused as ever. I hung it up on a hook by the wall so she could have free hands. I grabbed her arms and pulled her closer to me so that we were skin to skin.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAhDwUahlEDp
I felt her heart beating rapidly on me and she had her eyes glued up at my face, not daring to look anywhere else. Her cheeks washed to a red color and she bit her bottom lip which I wish she didn't' because it made it ten times harder to resist her.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAz23nT85IbN
I leaned in close so that our foreheads collided and the water was now dripping down both of our faces. Her body against mine and her lips so close made me want satisfy her.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAfYc4s4Gmow
I stole a kiss from her lips the second she opened her mouth. She leaned more into me, allowing me more access to her. She bit my lip and whether it was accidental or not it turned me on quickly. I lost all control of my senses and allowed my lust to steer my mind and I swiftly lifted her up around my waist. She didn't stop me, instead she kissed me harder and allowed a moan to fill the shower room . I nuzzled my head into her neck and began sucking on her soft skin that was drenched from the shower water hitting us continuously. I allowed my dick to sit dangerously close to her slit, carefully moving away from it trying not to go to far.
92Please respect copyright.PENANA94JceRsX4U
I felt myself growing harder with each breath and groan. I knew I had to stop myself before I made her uncomfortable.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAQ96if6zI0J
Reluctantly I pulled my face away from her neck. She had her arms wrapped around my neck and we somehow ended up at a completely different spot with me pushing her back onto the shower wall. I studied her face to see if she was okay. She peeled her eyes open slowly and was breathing rather heavy. I released my grip from her and set her back down.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAaMs3vnWRmD
"Sorry, I got carried away." I said running my hands through my soaked head of hair.
92Please respect copyright.PENANArBhRS06g8X
"It's okay," was all she said. I kissed her one more lightly with much less intensity and cut the water off.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAqfO8wW6eXw
After our shower, she went to her room to get a few things to bring to mine. She came with papers and notebooks and a book. She did her homework on my bed and while she did that I cleaned up the food we left in the kitchen to save our maid from the trouble of cleaning up extra things.
92Please respect copyright.PENANA6KApETP2z7
I decided it was smart for me to do my homework as well even though I'd already finished the weeks worth of it. When I opened my laptop I came across the entry for the Art competition. I had started filing out my application for it but stopped a few days ago. I didn't know if I wanted to enter in this year because every year I usually declined the prize money. This year they had a scholarship.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAyX3mbyxI2V
I didn't really need a scholarship. I had a 4.3 GPA . I'd already gotten into most of the top schools I already applied for. I just felt like entering would be taking away an opportunity for someone else. That didn't mean I didn't want my art work to be seen though.
92Please respect copyright.PENANALC8kSEGZAq
One more year won't hurt. I'll just decline the prize again.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAr2wdiGuPN7
I completed the information required to enter and submitted it.
92Please respect copyright.PENANASSvS0u0si8
Hours went by and it was now evening. I hadn't looked up from my desk since I started my homework because I was heavily focused on my assignments. I finally finished up some of the practice equations Mr. Stewart gave me and they were actually challenging this time.
92Please respect copyright.PENANA55w2utQbxS
I stretched out my body and closed my laptop. I looked over to the bed to see what V had been up to since we both were working on homework for an awful longtime.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAWHPiKJzo6K
She was out cold.
92Please respect copyright.PENANA6npPaKdCzY
She fell asleep on her papers and was drooling on one of her assignments.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAsLAhnsmce6
I held my gaze at her sleeping before deciding to move her. I took the book and notebook from under her arm and set them on top of each other on my bedside table. The other papers were under her head so I picked her head up and tried to move it as delicately as I could without waking her up. She shuffled a bit before settling onto the pillow.
92Please respect copyright.PENANAHmXtYIwes6
After everything was out of the way, I pulled the covers up and slid inside next to her. I had my sketch book in the drawer next to the bed and opened it up. Taking the pencil I used for my homework, I sketched until I could find sleep.
