not long after,
isaac climbs into bed
folds back the blankets and gives her a deliciously naughty 'come hither' look
she's been driven to the point of deliriousness by sleepiness
and she can't help the giggle that escapes her lips
and the five more that follow
she has to grasp the dresser for support
"oh god, isaac
don't look at me like that"
she gasps, in between laughs
she's ashamed
she sounds like a ditzy lightweight, giggling up a storm like this
but,
her worries are quieted when she sees that he's laughing too
"oh, c'mon, adeline
i'm getting you into bed for the first time
let me have my fun"
her cheeks flush pink,
and she can see his wicked smile
even in the low light
she starts to pull her joggers down her legs
hears his breath hitch
and then,
run smooth
as her shorts are revealed underneath
she leaves the sweatpants in their jumble on the floor
too tired to provide any illusion of neatness
the moment she slides under the covers,
isaac pulls her against him
her head nestles into the crook of his shoulder
legs tangling until she can't tell where he ends and she begins
she presses a kiss to the hollow of his neck
"i love you, isaac"
a whisper of a kiss brushes her temple
"i love you too, adeline"
he pulls the duvet over their entwined bodies
gives her one last kiss
and then,
they sleep
