Slight sexual content warning.

I took a deep breath and paced outside of the bathroom door. My shower has a glass sliding door, so if I walked in, he would see me and I would see him.

The shower just started running, so I know I don't have that much time. I need to either suck it up and do it, or just go back downstairs.

What if he rejects me?

But why would he? He kissed me last night. He said he still had feelings for me. So I don't see why he would deny me.

I grabbed the handle and slowly opened it. His back was to me as he lathered shampoo into his hair. His bare back muscles tightened as he moved around. My heart began to pound at an abnormal speed. I've
never even seen him naked before. We only kissed all those years ago.

Before I could change my mind, I slipped out of my clothes and opened the shower door. It creaked as I opened it, alarming Joe to my presence.

He slowly turned around, his eyes scanning down my body. His Adam's apple bobbed up and down as he swallowed hard.

A smirk crossed my lips, "Hi."

"Hi." He said back, before reaching towards me and resting his hands on my waist. He pulled me closer to him, the water rushing over me. All of my nerves melted away under his touch.

He brings his lips to mine, brushing them against me first. Teasing me.

"You're beautiful." He mumbled before closing the space between us. Although we kissed earlier, this felt different. I could practically feel the passion behind it.

Slowly, he pushed me against the glass wall, our bodies pressing against each other. I could feel the heat rising deep in my core as his lips moved to my neck, planting soft kisses down to my collar bone as his hands made their way to my ass, lifting me up. I wrapped my legs around his waist and couldn't help but gasp at the contact.

"Joe." I moaned as he slowly pressed into me.

I brushed through my tangled wet hair in front of the half fogged up mirror as Joe finished up his shower that he started before I interrupted. My cheeks flushed at the sight of a hickey on my neck. I brushed my hand over the sore spot and couldn't help but giggle like I was a teenager.

Joe appeared behind me, a towel wrapped around his waist. Water dripped from his wet curls as he wrapped his arms around my waist from behind. I didn't even care that he was getting my clothes I just put back on wet.

I closed my eyes and leaned against him. I could feel his racing heart against my back.

"Hi." He said.

I laughed, "Hi."

He let out a sigh, "I really don't want to leave now."

I bit the inside of my cheek, "don't then."

I could feel his smile against my cheek, "I guess I could stay another day... or two." I opened my eyes and turned around to face him, wrapping my arms around his neck. He smiled warmly at me before pressing his lips to mine quickly.

Joe helps me as I make us pasta for dinner. Daisy watches constantly from the couch, waiting for one of us to drop something. Music is playing quietly in the background, and the fire is going. I haven't felt this content in a long time.

"That smells so good." Joe says as he sets two plates beside me on the counter.

"My mother'ss recipe." I took a bite of sauce from the spoon to make sure it tasted right.

"I wish I had gotten to meet her. I'm sure she was as lovely as you." I smile at Joe and his kind words.

"She would have loved you." I tell him.

And I know she would have.

A quick chapter for you :)

Thanks for being patient!
