Eye for Love - Natalie & Rafael's First Time pt. 2

Natalie & Rafael's First Time pt. 2 - Natalie's POV

Rafe and I relaxed into the bed wordlessly for awhile. We actually just slept together. And it was incredible. We can totally still be normal after this, right?

We both eventually moved out of the bed to get dressed, Rafe into his pajamas and me grabbing one of Rafe's shirts for now. Rafe went to the kitchen for some water as I made my way over to the window, gazing out into the night.

I just slept with my best friend. So much for all the denial it would happen. But I definitely don't regret it.

Rafe comes up behind me and wraps his arm around the small of my back.

"I swear that shirt looks better on you than it ever did on me."

I lean into him without realizing and reply, "That's because I'm cuter than you."

"Can't disagree with that."

I hope he can't see me blushing right now...

We stood there quietly for a moment before Rafe breaks the silence. "You know, I could get used to seeing you like that."

"RAFAEL!"

"Not quite as sexy when you aren't screaming it."

He starts laughing as I yell, "Oh my God!"

"I believe you said that a few times as well."

"When did you get so dirty?"

"You just didn't know that side of me." He gives me a flirty wink as I take a deep breath. "You okay, Nat? You don't regret it, do you?" I can hear the worry in his voice as he fears he crossed the line too far but that's not at all what I'm thinking.

"No!" I take a deep breath. "I definitely don't regret it."

"Thank God. Things would've gotten really awkward if you did." I can't suppress a small laugh.

"No, that was actually... pretty great." Rafe blushes and I find that I can't take my eyes off of him. I love it when he blushes.

"I might actually say incredible."

Now I blush before taking another deep breath. "I should probably get going. It's late and I need to be back here early."

"Or..." Rafe responds nervously. "Stay here tonight. We can act like those 'lines' between us don't exist for the night."

"What do you have on your mind, Reyes?"

Rafe comes up to me and gently lifts my chin to meet his gaze. "You. On the bed. With nothing on."

"Then what are you waiting for?"

This might be a terrible idea but I'm not thinking with my head right now so I pull him to me and crash my lips onto his again. We can manage "no lines" for just the night, right?

"We have sex once and you're already that eager to have me again?" Rafe teases.  Because of course he does.  That's so... Rafe.

"You're the one who just asked me to stay so you could fuck me again."

"That is definitely not what I said."

"Is that not what you meant when you said we could pretend the "lines" between us didn't exist?"

"Oh, that's exactly what I meant.  Those just aren't the words I used."

I giggle before responding, "Why don't you just show me exactly what you mean then?"

"Mmm... I could get used to this side of you, Nat," he replies before smashing his lips onto mine again and leading us back to the bed, both of us stripping off our clothing as we go.
