Chapter 15 - Kiss me
Moments later Ominis arrives back in the room with a large leather suitcase with a embroidered emblem with what I have always assumed is Gaunt’s crest, the brown binding of the sides slightly coming away but still show off the wealth that someone would have to have to own this kind of bag, it contained all the things he had left in the basement while house sitting for me.
“So if we’re going to be sleeping together every night, I thought it might be wise that I hang my clothes in here, I’m fed up of having to feel for wrinkles every time I put a shirt on, unless you don’t want to keep the sleeping arrangements anymore”.
When I arrived home I assumed he would have made the house his own, but no he was still living out of this suitcase like a stranger at a B&B, the only difference was the light splattering of male items I had never had in the house before, his razor sat in the cupboard above the sink and his familiar Arnold - a large brown toad, sat in a big box of moss in the pantry, as this is the coolest part of the house for him during warmer weather.
“Of course you can bring your things in here, my two dresses and handful of other clothes don’t really warrant a full wardrobe do they, make yourself at home Ominis”, I say sincerely.
“Oh really? I’ll take you up on that offer”.
Before I have chance to register, Ominis jumps towards the bed, splaying out his arms as he falls into the soft mass of pillows, i assume he doesn’t realise that I am one of the pillows he dives on to, I try to move but by the time my legs have worked, he is already on top of me.
“Shit I’m sorry, I thought you were at the other side of the room”, he blushes dark red and pushes off me, his arms at both sides of mine, unintentionally pinning me to the bed.
I let out a gentle groan from the pressure, but I do not want him to get off me.
“Kiss me”, I whisper.
