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.
82Please respect copyright.PENANAqlFYGfGQ3j
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.
82Please respect copyright.PENANA5e7k6ApPNr
"This is gorgeous." She said slowly turning to take in everything in the garden.
82Please respect copyright.PENANALTQHZh90Ke
"It is." I said watching her attentively. She never looked my way, she was enraptured with the vivid colors of the flowers.
82Please respect copyright.PENANA7DOfEirIEZ
"This must've taken years to put together? Who upkeeps the garden?" She inquired.
82Please respect copyright.PENANANbRGB86wf7
"George. He's been with us for year. He keeps up with the garden and the yard work."
82Please respect copyright.PENANAEUz5gbryGS
"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.
82Please respect copyright.PENANARMyhBgdMHc
"I like to come out here to sketch sometimes. It's relaxing."
82Please respect copyright.PENANALvQtO2KBek
"It is quite calming. The sounds of the fountain and the wind. It's peaceful."
82Please respect copyright.PENANAOpqiIo8Hgk
We both stood under the decorated arch behind the fountain. She was still examining every detail of the garden and I quietly watched her.
82Please respect copyright.PENANAfKRPyWuDcd
"I thought you might like it. No one really comes out here but me."
82Please respect copyright.PENANAqxMdJNFUHs
"Really?!"
82Please respect copyright.PENANAyHch8HSz5F
"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."
82Please respect copyright.PENANAoAOzBtNij3
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.
82Please respect copyright.PENANAwApSllxmfz
"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.
82Please respect copyright.PENANAFpQ3v54wyB
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.
82Please respect copyright.PENANALLAD2sLJSG
"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."
82Please respect copyright.PENANAOEU4E9kT7P
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.
82Please respect copyright.PENANAffndBEcVLi
"Can I say thank you one more time?" She said muffled into my chest.
82Please respect copyright.PENANA2HEUKxRLtJ
"Of course." I said grinning. She couldn't see though because her head was completely buried into my shirt.
82Please respect copyright.PENANAja1jMjuaqy
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.
82Please respect copyright.PENANAN9kM9RZfMt
"Thank you." She smiled at me and it automatically made me smile.
82Please respect copyright.PENANAXuFA5p2Fw2
"We should head back inside."
82Please respect copyright.PENANAJcHmTSHEXJ
"Okay."
82Please respect copyright.PENANAEAlagq5WOM
I bent down into a crouch in front of her and looked back.
82Please respect copyright.PENANALukFVbDJam
"Get on."
82Please respect copyright.PENANAfrk4EjSohk
"Your back?"
82Please respect copyright.PENANAtgILJNrYls
"Yes, get on."
82Please respect copyright.PENANAaR3lsRpNFm
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.
82Please respect copyright.PENANALsveTBaQrj
The sound of her laughter was like a symphony of music. It was a very rare occurrence but it was golden.
82Please respect copyright.PENANAhANwk010Da
Once we reached the house we took our shoes off at the front so we didn't leave tracks on the white floors.
82Please respect copyright.PENANASOwhkFyXat
"I think I should shower. I'm soaking wet." She said walking towards the stairs before briefly stopping to look back at me.
82Please respect copyright.PENANAAjP2uxJJrK
"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.
82Please respect copyright.PENANAKGjvb1Mc3W
"Are we showering together?"
82Please respect copyright.PENANAeLX7XnkuD4
"That decision is completely up to you." I replied.
82Please respect copyright.PENANAKYCDg8ICJC
She stood there thinking hard, twiddling her thumbs between each other.
82Please respect copyright.PENANA3Omnohaajf
"I think we should...to preserve the water."
82Please respect copyright.PENANATgCaqkeIXJ
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.
82Please respect copyright.PENANAypMx951lwi
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.
82Please respect copyright.PENANAzLd6epfldI
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.
82Please respect copyright.PENANAJLewfBeZqx
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.
82Please respect copyright.PENANACZuPtOY4mz
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.
82Please respect copyright.PENANADW1I4hX3Zj
Fuck.
82Please respect copyright.PENANAqVDpzbx0GI
How do I control myself?
82Please respect copyright.PENANAQ4BJKxCB1I
Her curves were incredibly beautiful. Everything about her was. Every line, every mark, and every scar on her surface was.
82Please respect copyright.PENANARfwkpE07uG
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.
82Please respect copyright.PENANAsHsv4qVlei
"You okay?"She snapped her head up to me after my question as if she was in a completely different place.
82Please respect copyright.PENANADw0CW5tYRm
"Yeah."
82Please respect copyright.PENANA4Z0DttbWci
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.
82Please respect copyright.PENANADcG9pFAw5n
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.
82Please respect copyright.PENANAyFAXnYMknp
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.
82Please respect copyright.PENANAiQP4QFLG8k
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.
82Please respect copyright.PENANAhgpaJYKUk6
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.
82Please respect copyright.PENANAJRp60ruaK1
I felt myself growing harder with each breath and groan. I knew I had to stop myself before I made her uncomfortable.
82Please respect copyright.PENANAArukt8m0XH
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.
82Please respect copyright.PENANAaZU8ViLWE3
"Sorry, I got carried away." I said running my hands through my soaked head of hair.
82Please respect copyright.PENANAoaHgORILAY
"It's okay," was all she said. I kissed her one more lightly with much less intensity and cut the water off.
82Please respect copyright.PENANARkfH6g2E4u
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.
82Please respect copyright.PENANAvhONzJiKKd
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.
82Please respect copyright.PENANAGdTQ6AIaB1
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.
82Please respect copyright.PENANASElQdIkpRW
One more year won't hurt. I'll just decline the prize again.
82Please respect copyright.PENANAk4dZsgn6ta
I completed the information required to enter and submitted it.
82Please respect copyright.PENANAtW74qZpBFF
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.
82Please respect copyright.PENANAF2wJVpEdXi
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.
82Please respect copyright.PENANAJpB3uaPRip
She was out cold.
82Please respect copyright.PENANAHyIvk9ZOiZ
She fell asleep on her papers and was drooling on one of her assignments.
82Please respect copyright.PENANANey6LyJ86i
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.
82Please respect copyright.PENANAjjTRXMq6eq
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.
