What.
A.
Night.
First time in a long time, I had the best time of my life with the best fucking girl I have ever met. Granted, being 27, a well-kept attractive hockey player, I've had my share. But they were her. They weren't like her in any way.
I'm not gloating or anything, it's just what happens when you eat right and workout. Staying healthy keeps your body healthy, or whatever.
Jo was different, she left me guessing, even though I hate it - it draws me to her. I always want to find out more about her, when she opens up. She was secretive, but open. She was confident, but some things she was still unsure of about herself. She was loud, but quiet when she was nervous. I liked everything about her. She's come a long way, and I was glad to be the person laying next to her.
In her house. Under her blanket. Sharing the same sleeping space. Naked. Groaning, I shifted my body, only realizing she was sleeping on my chest. She snored softy in her sleep, and it was too fucking adorable to not like. Relaxing underneath her, I traced my fingers on her side gently. Trying not to wake her. I stared up at the ceiling, laying completely silent with my thoughts. Reminiscing about the night we shared.
Part of me felt guilty. Drinking got the best of me and we slept together. Jo reassured me millions of times that it was what she wanted. She wanted it all. And she got it all. But why did I feel so damn guilty for taking her under the influence? I sighed, and rubbed my eye, contemplating what we were at this point. Were we friends? Friends with benefits?
Were we a couple? I sure as fuck hoped so. But I didn't ask her appropriately. Definitely gotta do it soon. I was obsessed over this woman for months, and I had her. I finally fucking had her. I wasn't planning on letting her go.
Taking her out to dinner, the clank of our first beer we shared together, the face she made when she lost the pool game bet. Her smile when I knocked on her door. Her smile made me forget how to breathe. I chuckled remembering her lip pout out and her arms crossed over her chet like she was a child. It was amazing. She kept me smiling.
"Colby.." Jo murmured on top of me, gently stirring. Cranking my head sideways, I looked at her, watching her slowly open her eyes. Her hand rubbed her eye, as she blinked looking around, before resting her eyes on me, smiling softly.
"Morning, Colby. You stayed." She whispered, yawning, covering her mouth. Moving, I grabbed the back of her head, pulling her to me, resting my lips on hers. Her small soft lips pressed against mine, kissing me back. Breaking apart, I looked down at her green eyes, grinning.
"Morning, gorgeous. And of course I did, I had to get the front row seat seeing that beautiful face." Resting my head back on the couch, I stretched my arms above my head, my joints cracking and popping. Grunting overly loud, I scratched my chest, looking over at Jo. Only to be star struck again.
"What? Why are you looking at me like-"
"Don't move." I instructed. Keeping my eyes on her, I grabbed my phone, somehow on the side table, opening my camera. Laying back down, I tried to get an angle, adjusting the settings. Her hand came up blocking my camera view.
"Colby don't-"
"Hush, Jo you look too fucking good not too. Trust me on this. Just stay still." I gruffed, getting the light behind her just right. The sun was just peeking through the curtains, almost giving her a halo effect above her head. The other window near the couch had the sun pushing through, kissing her skin, her eyes shining right at me. She was fucking perfect and she didnt even have try. Her hair was messy but draped over the side of her face, her eyes piercing green. Like emerald diamonds.
