11:47pm
I took a long shower not long ago, once we finished hanging out with Gabriel and Nina. Jordan was asleep in the guest room and I was waiting for Nile to leave the shower.
The water stopped running a few minutes ago, an indication that he should be out any minute. I look around his room, there's not much of a difference except for a few extra books and a plant.
I get up from his plush king bed and stalk over to the books, examining them.
They seemed to be fiction novels, some about love and other murder thrillers. I smiled, finding it funny yet cute that he reads these kinds of books.
"What are you smiling at?", his low voice cuts through my thoughts.
I turn around to see him in just a pair of sweatpants, his hands towel drying his hair. He looked amazing, surprisingly more defined than months ago. It shocked me to see his naked chest every time, but this special moment had a burning heat go through my core.
He was mine.
Mine to kiss. To taste. To touch.
"Nothing, just admiring your set of books. Real cute."
His gaze stays ever present on me. "Had to fill the void somehow."
We get caught in another one of our staring games until he breaks it.
"Come here."
I walk towards him, standing right in front of him and lifting my head up to get a better view.
He looks down, caressing the side of my face with his thumb. His thumb goes to my lips, parting them and then going down on my bottom lip which causes my lip to fold with his touch.
" I finally get you in my bed", he whispers almost as if he was speaking to himself and not me.
He grabs me by the waist and picks me up, ensuring I wrap my legs around his hips.
My hold on his neck tightens as he seats us on the bed. His back is to the headboard and I sit on his lap, straddling him.
I shift myself to get adjusted to the position and a sound comes from his voice.
His eyes close and his grip on my waist tightens.
Once I get situated his eyes open again. He looks at me, my face, hair, body, chest, legs, back to my face.
"I've been waiting for this moment since you left."
"I can't comprehend that I'm back yet", I confess.
"Me neither, but I'm so fucking glad you are. I hated coming home every night not to have your lips on mine or gripping your waist."
His hands go to my waist again and squeezes. "Not having your arms around me when we sleep. Not having your pretty face as the first thing I see when I open my eyes."
Nile's eyes were in deep thought. "Feeling you next to me every morning was the best parts of my day. I had to physically stop myself from crawling into your bed some nights. You were addicting. You are addicting, Kiiara."
