~Ace

Three years earlier...

I don't have it in me to wake her up. Sarah is the most beautiful girl I have been with till now, and I believe that I will never, ever, meet someone like her.

Yesterday has been magical. I am right. Everything about her is perfect. I can't believe that someone could be so right for me but she is. She is even more than that.

I trace her lips with my finger, and the corners of her lips lift upwards.

"Good morning, baby," I whisper but barely.

She hums and doesn't open her eyes.

I dip my head and plant a soft kiss on her lips. Her smile widens, and she moves closer to me.

I trail my finger from her face down to the nape of her neck, where I've left a hickey for her to remind her of today wherever she goes.

I've worshipped every single angle of her body, and if it were up to me, I would have stayed up making love to her all night.

"I don't know how I'll hide that." Her eyelids flutter open.

"Don't hide it. Let everyone know that you are mine."

"Possessive, Ace. I can't do that. I have parents, in case you have forgotten." She explains, but I already know that, "Who I haven't called since last night."

She turns around to grab her phone, but I can't let her mother ruin this. I wrap my arms around her and pull her to me.

"No, baby. Don't call her." I plant a kiss under her ear, and I feel her shudder between my arms.

"Ace, I have to. She is probably freaking out right now." She tried to break free but I held her firmly.

"But, baby." I whine, burying my face in the crook of her neck, "I didn't get enough of you last night."

"No, Ace. We can't. I need to go."

"Please." I plant a kiss on her soft skin, "Don't go, baby."

"Ace..." She is losing, and I can't be happier.

"What can I say to make you stay?" I nuzzle into her neck.

"Nothing. I have to leave." She is saying something and doing another.

She is leaning back against me, smiling.

"I don't think you want to leave right now." I nibble on her earlobe, and she writhes between my arms.

"I do." She argues weakly.

"Lay in my arms for a while, then I will let you go."

"Okay." She slowly turns around, wrapping her arms around my torso.

We lay like that for a while, in each other's arms, wanting nothing else from the world. Just us.
