The Beautiful Monster

Elias set the gifts down before drawing her into a tight hug.

"You\'re the best," he murmured into her soft hair. "Thank you so much."

Alyssa rubbed his back as her eyes fluttered shut for a few moments. She wanted more of these moments. She liked seeing him smile like this.

"Merry Christmas," she quipped as they broke apart.

"Stay here," Elias replied before walking off toward his bedroom.

Alyssa suspected that they were doing their Christmas now since they were together on Christmas Eve. She didn\'t mind pushing up their celebration.

It felt like the perfect time. She waited a minute until Elias walked out of his bedroom with a big bag full of white tissue paper in his hand.

Elias smiled and handed it over to her.

"Merry Christmas," he said as he watched her start to pull out the tissue paper.

Alyssa honestly had no idea what to expect. The mall in town was pretty big, and they completely separated when they went shopping for each other\'s gifts.

He could\'ve gotten anything from any store in the mall. Her fingers struck the first item, prompting her to pull it out of the depths of the bag.

"This is probably the best thing you could\'ve given me," she laughed out as she held up a thick planner for the new year. It wasn\'t just any regular planner, though.

It was the advanced one with stickers, bookmarks, tabs, and all sorts of different page designs inside. It was a good student\'s wet dream.

"I don\'t know how you can get even more organized than you already are, but this could be a start," Elias smirked as he nodded to the black, leather planner.

Alyssa leaned forward to peck him on the lips thankfully before digging around in the bag for her next gift. She felt something solid and then pulled out a small box.

It had to be jewelry. It looked just like the box that his snake ring came in. She popped open the lid to reveal a silver necklace with a star charm.

"A star," she murmured as she looked up at him.

"I don\'t know anyone else who shoots for the stars as much as you do. You\'ll have the greatest chance of actually landing among them," Elias explained with a warm look.

Alyssa felt her heart skip a little as she held the necklace close to her chest. She didn\'t think that he could get any sweeter than he already was.

"Can you put it on me?" she asked him. She didn\'t want to put it up. She wanted to feel it on her upper chest, to always know how much he believed in her. No one else believed in her like he did. She didn\'t take that lightly at all.

Elias nodded and moved behind her. He took the necklace from her and hooked it around her neck. He kissed the back of her head.

"There\'s no one else I want to be with right now," he told her.

Alyssa turned around as she held the star charm between her fingertips. She was still awed at his thoughtfulness.

Everything that he had gotten her was so perfect and thoughtful. He really did know her, and he saw her in such a beautiful life.

"I\'m not going anywhere," she replied. The night was theirs. They could do anything they wanted to, but she had an idea about how they wanted to spend it.

She stepped close to him and kissed him, feeling his lips gently glide against hers.

Elias rubbed his hands down her arms over the sleeves of her jacket. He tilted his head slightly, perfectly lining his lips with hers.

Alyssa gripped the back of his neck, not wanting him to part from her. It felt too good to be connected, but she knew that she wanted more. She wanted him.

The sensations were so sharp, so sensitive. It was like her body knew what was coming, and she was more than ready for it.

"Want to go to the bedroom?" Alyssa whispered against his lips.

Elias nodded immediately. He picked her up easily and carried her to the bedroom without any hesitation.

There was just desire, and it was something that they could no longer ignore. Not that they wanted to in the first place.

*********

Alyssa couldn\'t believe how quickly they got their clothes off. They were far quicker and more chaotic than last time, but she supposed that was because they were actually going at the pace their desire was set at.

They didn\'t have to slow down for her. She was already ready for him.

She straddled his waist, feeling his hard length slid between her thighs and grate against her clit. A moan sounded from her that was hushed by Elias\' lips.

She placed one hand beside his head and one on his upper arm to give her some leverage. She rocked her hips down against him, grinding slowly at first to get used to the feeling.

"Woah…" she breathed out at the crackling friction. She felt his hands grab her hips, helping her move as she grinded down on him. She dropped her head to capture his lips, kissing him deeply as she moved against him.

She parted her lips, feeling the slow stroke of his tongue against hers. The feeling nearly dizzied her.

Elias pushed his fingers into her hair, gripping the strands lightly as she moved. He tightened his grip with each roll of her hips.

"Damn, baby," Elias gritted out. He leaned his head back as he drew in a deep breath to steady himself.

Alyssa smiled down at him as she placed her hands on his chest. She rolled her hips quicker, but she didn\'t get to maintain that pace for long.

She gasped as Elias grabbed her hips and pulled her up his body until she straddled his face. 

Elias leaned up and dragged his tongue against her clit. He grabbed her thighs to keep her steady, feeling her jerk a little against his tongue.
