Every time I see your face, my heart takes off on a high speed chase...
Eli’s hand curled gently into the hair at the back of her neck holding her head against his chest. Trying to keep his heart beat at a steady pace became difficult having her this close to him, but he managed to keep it at a steady beat. Now wasn’t the time for her to find out just how much she affected him just by holding her, he was just realising this himself and was trying to get his head around it. His blue eyes dropped to her smoky grey orbs as she lifted her head to look up at him, her eyes still heavy with sleep. He smiled down at her, unlike any smile he had given her before, this one void of mirth or arrogance, but but something else entirely, a warm reassurance that he was there for her.
His eyes fluttered shut and he stifled a sigh as she turned her head into his neck and pressed her lips softly into his skin sighing his name. “I’m here,” He spoke, a seemingly automatic response. Her breathing became less ragged and more even as the minutes ticked by and they stayed as they were and he thought she must have drifted back to sleep again. Worried that she would fall straight back into her nightmare again if he left her now, Eli shifted Audrina’s legs a little, making room so he could lay beside her - she was still holding onto him and hadn’t let go. He was careful not to make too many sudden movements as he arranged himself on his side facing the wall, and Audrina lying on her side facing into him, her head tucked into the groove between his neck and shoulder, and he felt her warm breath through his shirt as she slowly breathed in and out.
Eli had thought kissing her, having her fingers curled into his hair pressing herself into him as their lips had moved heatedly against each other had been intimate enough, but this...this was a much more different kind of intimate, one that was foreign to him but pleasant all the same. Eli had to remind himself quickly as he tried to determine what this foreign feeling was that soon she would push him away as she realised what she was doing, as the hard exterior she always had up around herself came back and he should be preparing himself for that and not be hurt by it when that hard wall did come back pushing him out.

Now don't be scared, it's only love, baby, that we're falling in...

I want to feel love, run through my blood. Tell me is this where I give it all up?...
She felt herself turning warm as his thumbs rubbed gently at her cheeks before his hair was falling in his eyes again. She wanted to bring her hands up to brush it away, to delve her fingers into that silk again, but she still couldn’t move and almost felt appalled for thinking of him that way. When he spoke, however, her expression softened and her brows furrowed in a look somewhere between concern and affection. It was his final statement that made her eyes widen in shock. He’d hinted at feeling for her before, but to actually hear him say it was something else entirely. She didn’t have long to think about it as she felt his lips on her forehead before they softly came down on her own. Her eyes had begun to close under the pressure of him at her forehead, but they shot wide once more when she felt him kiss her. It was so fast she wasn’t even sure if it’d actually happened until he separated from her and was gazing at her through strands of his hair. Her chest heaved as her heart pounded, her body trying to catch its breath as a million things ran through her mind. Back away, a voice warned, but it was lost to her as her hands finally came up and gripped his hair, holding him from retreating further.
She only looked at him for a moment before she was returning his gesture and pressing her lips to his with a gentle force. Her lips moved against his, begging for his mouth to open to her, before she was kissing him with as much want as they had in the training room those days ago. She pulled herself into his body, molded to him, as she tilted her head and kissed him deeper, fingers entwining in his hair and trying not to pull too hard. As she took a breath from him she felt that voice in her mind prodding hard to remind her of what she was doing and how she shouldn't be. She broke from him then, though she stayed molded against him, her eyes slightly downcast as she began to loosen her grip on his hair. "Eli..." She started between pants for air. She swallowed the lump in her throat before she completely unthreaded her fingers from his hair and began to back away from him. She stepped into her nightstand and placed her hands behind her on the wooden stand to steady herself. She looked at him as her chest heaved while she continued to try to catch her breath. Every time she kissed him it was like this. Electric. Alive. Things she'd never felt before. Most of all she felt the danger in giving herself away to someone, risking her already broken heart in hopes that person wouldn't rip it from her chest.
"We can't do this." She breathed at last, her eyes finding his as she said it. It hurt to even think it, to actually pull away from him again, but this would only complicate things and it put them both in a sensitive position. She was quiet for a few moments after that as she gauged his reaction, seeing that same desire she'd felt in his eyes beginning to dwindle away. She shouldn't have kissed him and knew she was to blame, but after he'd pressed his lips so gently to hers she couldn't stop herself. He was dangerous in the fact of what he could do to her. Nobody else had ever had this kind of control over her and it was frightening. She wasn't even sure if he really knew what he did to her and she couldn't tell him now. Every time she came close to that brink she barely managed to pull herself back. There were a million things she wanted to say to him, but couldn't. She wanted to tell him she didn't know what she was doing, that she'd never had a relationship with anyone, that she cared about him and feared he'd get hurt because of her. Yet none of it would come out.

For you I have to risk it all. Cause the writing's on the wall...
