What Lies Beneath

Chapter 36: Not Quite Sunday

Trailing her slender fingers across Damon's collarbone while he slept, Bonnie drew invisible symbols into his pale skin with her nails. She admired how utterly magnificent he was, especially when he wasn't frowning or threatening anyone. His long dark lashes fanned his soft cheeks. His body was in total repose with the sheet slipping low and to the left leaving his right leg uncovered. And then of course there were his hip bones; the V that they came together to form almost looked painful. She'd never noticed that particular trait on guys before however now she found it to be very sexy.

But then Damon was sexy. Just smooth unmarred skin from his head to his toes. The way clothes hung on him should honestly be a crime.

It was still kinda surreal to be naked in his bed with him and to have memories of what they'd done the previous night. The touches—how he'd made her come undone in ways she never thought possible before. Not to mention the things he made her wanna do to him. She'd always found him hot and yes she'd day dreamed but it was different getting to be hands on. Getting to lick and scratch and watch how it affected him.

She knew that sex would change things and it had. If possible she loved him even more now.

Smiling, she shifted closer and began placing soft kisses along his the column of his neck, sliding on top of him and flicking her tongue down to his nipples. She licked one and then the other, capturing the first between her teeth to hold it in place as she suckled and laved over it.

Damon twitched and slowly started to come around, stretching his arms high over his head. His sleepy eyes opened lazily and he grinned at her. "Mm hey. You should wake me up like this every morning."

She chuckled, resting her chin on his chest. "Maybe I will. At least until my dad comes back from his business trip."

He frowned, his arms wrapping around her shoulders to press her closer. "Boo. You should move in here. We could play house."

"Uh-huh." She smirked. Her cheek laid flat over his heart and she tapped her fingers in the rhythm it should have been beating. "You'd get tired of me eventually. Or actually I'd probably get tired of you first."

"Yeah I could see that happening." He mused. "I'm not everyone's cup of tea."

"I like you," she said with a smile. "But only cause you are so pretty."

His hand slapped her on the ass with a loud thwackand she yelped, squirming on his lap. He groaned softly and his hands caressed the small of her back. "Fancy another round?"

"Not right now," Bonnie replied eying him. "Besides we've already did it like four times."

He arched a brow and rolled, pinning her beneath him. "Yes and I hope to do it many more times. That's the whole point once you get started."

Biting on the inside of her cheek, she ran her fingers through his hair. "And we will but I—I'm…" Her cheeks flushed red and she sighed. "I just need a little time to recover."

He caught on pretty quick. "Ah. Fair enough I guess I have been a little eager with you, haven't I?"

How am I still able to blush considering what we've done?"It's okay. I've enjoyed every moment of it. But you know I'm not a machine that can just go for hours."

The vampire winked and held her face we he kissed her gently, slicking his tongue across her bottom lip. In truth if she wasn't in danger of possibly walking funny later, she would have submitted to him again in a heartbeat. She loved the closeness that she felt when they were making love. How his sole attention was on her and pleasing her, and it made her feel like the most important person in his world. And maybe I am. Who knows? Either way it's a pretty thought.
