last winterThe next day, Itachi woke up at the first light of dawn, just to be hit with weariness. He gruffly breathed as he placed his palm over his eyes, feeling them sting with a distinct pain. He knew he probably had overused them last night.
He took a deep breath as he glanced down to see Kuina still sleeping soundly in his arms, and he blinked his eyes to clear them of their haziness as he lay still, falling deep into thoughts.
That was right, he recalled it clearly now that he shook his weariness away. They just had sex.
It felt like a dream, a really surreal dream, but unspeakably, it wouldn't be the first time he dreamt of something like this.
His gaze softened, and as he lay there, watching her sleep peacefully, he thought the pain he felt in his eyes was really worth it.
In the past, he had always thought that sex was just a mundane chore, but with her, it didn't feel like something so pointless. In those moments, to hold her in his arms, to feel nothing but pleasure, he genuinely thought he could for once in his life, forget everything. In those moments, it felt like a reverie whereas his sins didn't exist, a bone-deep moment that he only wanted to share with someone he loved most.
He did thoroughly enjoy making her crumble, making her beg, and teasing her to her breaking point. It was just that, she easily reached her limit despite her big talks. He had to hold himself back a lot with her, and he couldn't be as rough with her as he wanted to. It didn't matter much to him though; he didn't have sex with her just for gratification. And it was not like this would be the last time, he would slowly teach her.
And as he lay there with a strange and warm feeling in his heart, he thought that in his life, this was perhaps the first time destiny had ever been so kind to him.
His train of thought was broken when he felt Kuina shuffled slightly beneath his arms before her eyes fluttered open. He glanced down at her, his gaze meeting hers, and a smile came over his eyes.
She peered at him, looking befuddled momentarily, before her face flushed red as she quickly buried her face back into his chest. She didn't say anything to him as she squinted her eyes shut and pretended to fall back to sleep.
His brows raised at her action. "I know you're awake."
She squeezed her eyes shut tighter, her cheeks turning even more crimson as she didn't reply to him.
He softly caressed the back of her head as amusement came over his eyes. "Why are you so shy? You surely weren't like this last night."
At his words, she finally let out a soft whimper as she snapped her eyes open and glowered up at him. But before she could say anything in objection, he briefly leaned in, giving her a soft kiss on the forehead. And with just that, her whole body seemed to completely melt into a helpless puddle in his embrace, all of her words catching in her lungs.
