Nightmare

Chapter Twenty-Five

Dezzy

He kissed me.

Good lord he kissed me. Not just one of those little friendly pecks. Not my hair, my cheek, or hand.

He actually kissed me. Full on the lips deep and welcoming, kissed me.

I was shocked for a second. Too shocked to respond to his eager lips. What should I do? I wondered. I mean this time last week I was so mad at him I wanted to punch him. Hell that was even earlier today.

I knew deep down I forgave him for everything. Why wouldn't I? Wasn't I just as much in the wrong as he was? I should have told him the first night he stayed with me, the complete truth. Everything could have been avoided. I needed his forgiveness as much as he apparently wanted mine. I forgave him a week ago, I certainly didn't want him to start singing again. I really didn't want him to go back to acting like an ass. I could really handle the kisses.

I sighed into his lip. God they were soft and even the smell of tequila lingering on his breath tasted intoxicating.

I wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed him back, noticing just how right it felt.

Right wasn't the word for it. Goodness it was heavenly.

Zack wrapped his arms around me pulling me closer to his body, running his hands down my back.

God it felt good. It felt amazing. His hands were magic. Every tense muscle in my body suddenly relaxed. I had never felt so entirely relaxed and at peace as I did in this moment under his caress. What was he already doing to me? Whatever it was I wasn't complaining. On the contrary I am thriving in it.

Zack began kissing my jaw line moving down to my throat and shoulders. Effectively knocking my supply of oxygen from my lungs

A moan escaped my mouth, god it felt too damn good. I was almost embarrassed but too caught up in ecstasy to actually give a damn.

"I'm so sorry" Zack muttered between each soft kiss he planted on my exposed skin.

I was covered in goosebumps. I knew I was. Zack's kisses were doing almost foreign things to my body. It been so damn long since someone had touched me like this. It had been since Jimmy.

Actually to be fair and completely honest I don't think anyone had every touched me like this. Not even who I thought was the love of my life.

Zack's kisses were otherworldly. So soft, so sweet, god so taunting, it was pure ecstasy.

"Desiree, baby I am so so sorry." He whispered into my ear softly kissing my neck.

"What are you so sorry for?" I finally muttered finding my voice.

My voice sounded so thick with desire. I was certain he could hear it. I wonder if he knew what he was actually doing to my body. Was he planning this? It really didn't matter.

"I was terrible to you," He whispered again moving to the other side of my neck caressing my legs as his lips traveled over my body.

"Yes you were." I agreed playing with his hair.

"I'm sorry, I should have done this so much sooner." Zack laughed moving back to my lips.

"Done what?" I murmured biting my lip.

"Kissed you." He smiled "Every time I wanted to apologize I should have just kissed you. Lord knows it crossed my mind a million times."

"Did it now?" I asked laughing
