Side by side

Marshall's P.O.V

I still lay here on the bed when she gets back from the shower only wearing a towel. Her hair is wet, she has no makeup on and she's never been more beautiful.

"Do you have a t-shirt? I just wanna wear something clean and then I can change into my own clothes before I leave." She asks.

"Yeah sure." I say and get up from the bed. I walk into my walk in closet and I hear Jenny follow behind me.

"Wow." She says. My walk in closet is pretty big and my obsession with Nike is very clear in here. "Your Nike air collection is crazy."

"Yeah, I'm also very happy with it." I say and grab a t-shirt for her. "Here." I turn around and hand it to her.

"Thanks." She says. I can't stop myself as she's so close to me now. I grab the back of her neck and kiss her. I've wanted to do that since I walked into the room. "I'm just gonna go to the bathroom and put this on." She says and lifts the t-shirt.

Jenny walks out to the bathroom and I sit back down on the bed. I can't wait to the day I get to touch her, this has nothing to do with the fact that I just wanna bang her but the fact that we get that closer. I got a taste last night how she can satisfy my needs without even trying, like damn.. she knew just how to do it, no woman has ever had that affect on me.

She comes out of the bathroom a few minutes later and she walks over and places herself between my legs. She looks so damn good in my t-shirt showing off her tan legs. I let my hands slide down the back of her thighs and she bends down and kisses me.

"Are you gonna show me around?" She asks.

"Are you planing on visiting again?" I tease her and she pushes my shoulder lightly.

"Of course dummy." She says and I just look at her, admiring all of her beauty. "What?" She asks when I just keep looking at her.

"You're so fucking beautiful." I say and I immediately see her blush.

"You're so sweet." She says and kisses me again. I love how she's loosen more and more up to me. She still have a hard time about it in public places but she's become a lot better at it when we're alone.

We get up and I show her around the house. I even show her my girls' rooms and last but not least I show her my memory wall I've made in the honor of Deshaun.

"May I?" She asks me permission to walk closer and I just nod. I always get so fucking emotional when I stand her. I miss him everyday and life hasn't been the same since he died. Jenny walks closer and looks at all the pictures I've gathered in the frame. "You're so young in this picture." She points out a picture back from 92'.

"You're saying I'm old now?" I ask her playing offended.

"You said that, not me." She giggles and she lays her eyes on the picture again. "When was it taken?"

"In 92'." I say and she now looks at the jacket he wore on my weeding day.

"Is this his jacket?" She asks.

"Yeah, he wore it on my weeding day." I tell her.

"This is a sweet way to honor him by." She says and she now turns around and look at me.

"In some fucked up way I feel like he's closer to me then." I say and she takes my hands and intertwines it with hers. "He would've liked you." I then say. Deshaun would've loved Jenny, he would've loved that I finally found a decent woman.

"He would?"

"Yeah and I'm sure that you would've liked him." I say and I kiss her. "You wanna see my studio?"
