CHAPTER XXXIV

*****

I LAID EXHAUSTED in the bed, my legs tangled with the sheets and my head rested on Daniel's chest. He had his arm wrapped around me, his thumb rubbing small, delicate circles on the small of my back as I occasionally kissed anywhere on his skin I could reach.

Everything was calmer now. I wasn't sure how many times we had came and how many positions we had been in, but by now the lust between us was starting to fizzle and in its wake was unbridled emotion. At least in my case.

With the initial adrenaline now completely gone from my body, I could barely find the energy to move. My arms felt like they weighed a thousand pounds whenever I lifted them and I had lost most feelings in my legs for the night, while between them was aching with pain I wanted to forget. It felt like all the muscles in my body were absolutely done with me.

Daniel wrapped his arms tighter around me and lifted me up, so that I was laying on his chest with my legs on either side of him and my body on his. Considering the fact that we were both still naked, I couldn't help but feel like his dick was dangerously close to me for something to not happen, but I kept that thought to myself and instead basked in the feeling of his hands on my skin, gently caressing the pain away.

“What did...” I lifted my head up at the sound of his hesitant voice, waiting for him to say what he wanted to say again. “What did you and Pablo talk about?” he asked, making me frown.

I had forgotten about that; forgotten about the fact that we still needed to talk. Our problems didn't just magically go away with sex, I knew that, but was now really the time?

“I—” I stopped myself, pondering what I was going to tell him before saying anything. I didn't want to start lying about unnecessary things, but there were also some things that we did talk about that I couldn't just say to him without expecting him to be hurt by it. “We talked about you,” I answered, making him roll his eyes at my vagueness. “We talked about Emma, Celeste. Anna. We talked about a lot of things.”

He didn't say anything, letting the heavy silence settle deeper and deeper between us before I let out a sigh and continued. He knew exactly what he was doing.

“I listened to him,” I said as if it made any sense. “I mean, I listened to his points and I understood where he was coming from.” Daniel tensed under me, obviously assuming the worst but I placed his hand right over where his heart was beating and turned up to him with a reassuring smile. “But I was sure about you; about us and I wanted him to be sure to. So I told him to watch the relationship in the time that we're here and if he thinks we're bad for each other, then he can break us up.”

Daniel frowned at my words, his eyes not giving anything away, but I knew exactly what he was thinking.

“You're testing our relationship,” he said slowly, his eyes meeting mine as I sighed and sat up. I had his shirt on so there wouldn't be anything to distract either of us from the main issue at hand.

“Only because I'm so sure of us,” I said gently, my voice never rising or taking a different tone. I knew I would be if not mildly upset if I was in his shoes. “I want him to see what I see.”

“And if we fail?”

“We won't,” I said, immediately shutting down the thought. I took his hands and carefully interlinked our fingers, admiring how perfect we seemed to fit each other before looking into his eyes. “We won't. We're the dream team. Danaceli.”
