Author's Note
Before this chapter begins, I just want to say thank you all for reading my story and voting for it. When I started out, I honestly had no idea that anyone would even begin to read it. I was very nervous when I published the beginning, but now I'm glad that I did. It's crazy that this story almost has 3,000 reads, when I thought it wouldn't get 2. So, thank you all for reading my story and I hope you enjoy this new chapter. ;)
"Leo?" Sage called out, waiting in the steam filled bathroom from the hot shower she had taken five minutes before. After waiting a few minutes, she called out again. "Babe? I forgot my clothes!" Sighing, she wrapped the towel around her and opened the door and let out the steam, her wet feet pattering against the wood floors. She walked slowly around the curves of her apartment, looking for Leo. "Babe? Where are you?"
No answer still came, making Sage worry as to where Leo had gone. "Leo?" She asked quietly, coming around another curve, where the kitchen sat. She leaned against the counter, running a hand through her wet hair. And suddenly, she felt two hands around her, and before she knew it she was pinned against the wall. "What the fuck?"
Leo smiled mischievously, laughing. "Sorry babe," he paused, staring at her lips that had water droplets on them, "it was too tempting." Sage's breath hitched as Leo lightly ran his fingers up along her neck, his fingers grazing her skin with delicacy. "Leo." she whispered, her stomach churning with a simple want for him to do more.
"What baby?" Leo asked, smirking.
Her voice came out hoarse as she demanded him to do the one thing she wanted, "kiss me." Leo nodded to himself, as he raked a hand through her hair, got a handful, and pulled Sage closer to him, immediately connecting his lips to her's. Shockwaves surged through Sage as she kissed her lover, her love. She pulled away slowly, to breathe out and whisper, "I love you."
Leo smiled, "I love you too." As they leaned closer to each other, Sage's towel fell from her body. She gasped as she saw the towel puddle into the floor. Leo slowly looked down, licking his lips. He chuckled under his breath, "it was hard the first time I saw you naked to not do something, so...," he mumbled the last part but Sage could hear what he said, and she knew what was about to happen and she wasn't about to stop it.
She let Leo grab her and pick her up in his arms, as he breathed heavily in her ear into the bedroom, laying her down slowly on the bed. "Are you sure about this?" Leo asked, running his fingers down her arm. Sage nodded, wrapping her legs around his body, "yes, I'm sure. I've never been so sure of anything in my life."
Leo nodded, kissing her neck before beginning to undress himself....
They both sighed heavily. The sheets were a mess. They were both covered in sweat, the little droplets forming on their foreheads. Sage's hair was a knotted mess, Leo's hanging in his face. Slowly, their eyes met each other, a content feeling washing over them both. "That was..."
"Yeah." Sage finished, closing her sleepy eyes. Leo rolled over closer to her, wrapping his arms around her tightly. He smiled, pushing her hair out of her face, and leaned in and kissed her softly, before moving to her cheeks, then her nose, and finally to her closed eyelids. Kissing them delicately, while Sage giggled.
Leo laughed through his nose, pressing his forehead against her's. He began to kiss her forehead, "I." Kiss. "Love." Kiss. "You." Kiss.
Sage opened her eyes, biting her lip. "I love you more." Leo smiled, shaking his head playfully. "There's no way you love me more than I love you." Giggling again, Sage pushed Leo down on his back, climbing on top of him.
She kissed all over his face, over every crevice she could find. Moving down to his jawline she kissed it, then his earlobe, and down his neck to his chest. Leo licked his lips, as she moved to his shoulder, her wet and swollen lips moving against his skin. She hummed against him, then moved back up to his face and held it with her hands, gazing into Leo's eyes. "I do. Love you more," she emphasized, "and there's nothing you can do about it."
"Mmm." Leo hummed, flipping them over so he had her pinned down on the bed. "We'll see about that."
