Black Beauty (Z.A. Love Story// Explicit)

21// Return

I couldn't sleep after what happened. I showered to get the mess Richard had left off my skin. I wanted to smell like roses and shampoo.

My hair wet and my body cold, I stayed up listening to only one song until I got tired. Know the Way by Grimes.

I lit incense then went to sleep.

"Nina" I heard someone call.

I felt warmth of another human being against my bare back.

I looked at Zach as his eyes were closed, and his arms holding me.

"Zach" I said looking at his soft arms against mine.

His face with those baby cheeks, and his dark hair, and those eyes deeper than any ocean. He stared at me with his eyes looking into mine.

He looked like a thousand pounds had been lifted off his shoulder. He did nothing but look into my eyes.

"Babe, I've missed you" I said, holding a hand up to his face.

"I've missed you too" He said. He gently wrapped his arms around my waist, then pulled me tighter.

He held onto me like a child with a teddy bear.

This went on for a time that I loved.

"I'm sorry... I dropped my phone in a fountain" he said.

I didn't care. I liked him here with me.

"I'm sorry I've been so quiet with you, I've been so stressed. But that's over. The tours over. I've never been so happy. I got so sick of Jesse and everyone." He said; his voice tired and weak as he held me tighter.

I lifted my hand and ran my fingers through his hair. Soft like satin.

"I'm here" I said.

I felt at rest, he was back.

He got partially undressed, then came back into bed with me.

I could be with him for eternity.

"Did you like tour?" I asked him. He shifted out from his grasp.

"No" he said. "I don't like talking about it. I hate meeting girls that aren't you, and you know I hate too many people. We had to end the VIP mid tour. I would get nauseous each night." He said.

"I hate thinking about it." He said. "Come close to me again. I feel safe against you" he said.

"You smell nice" I said. He did. He always did.

He touched my thigh. I pressed my breasts against his chest. He was too tired for anything sexy.

"You smell nice too" he said. Putting his face over my shoulder.

I heard him sigh and take breaths deeper than the ocean.

There was nothing I liked more.
