The sound of a car honk in the distance was the first thing I noticed when I next came back to consciousness. I did not even need to open my eyes to know Chris was beside me. We were back to back, sleep had made us roll that way, but far from being distant from each other like we had been the last few nights; our backs were pressed together, safe in each other’s presence. I took great comfort in the feeling of his warm and supple skin against mine.
Chris coughed, groaned and shifted and my skin felt suddenly cold at the lack of contact. However, not even a minute had passed when he moved again, draping his arm around me and wiggling closer until he was spooning me.
I sank further into him, enjoying the moment.
“Are you awake, Jay?” He murmured; his voice still heavy with sleep.
“Mhm,” I uttered and took hold of his hand, which rested on my stomach and pressed it in against me, “It’s nice to wake up like this,” I told him.
“Indeed,” his voice vibrated near my ear and it made me tremble inside. My skin prickled as Chris planted a lingering kiss on my neck before nuzzling me.
He exhaled loudly, “Mmm, Jonny boy.”
His hand moved slowly around my belly, fingers curling and uncurling, travelling up to my chest and down below my navel. The feeling his caresses provoked was indescribably wonderful. It ignited something deep within me and I yearned for him even more.
I twisted my head back and hungrily searched for his mouth, our lips instantly met, he moved and I was suddenly trapped underneath him, as we intensely poured all our longing and love into our kiss.
Nothing else mattered at that moment, not my jealousy, not his flirting outside our relationship or any other thing that had come between us; it all got relegated to the back of my mind. It did not really matter now, we mattered, this mattered and so I wrapped my arms tightly around him, bringing him closer to me.
He released my mouth and for a second, stared at me with ardent and lustful blue eyes before pushing himself against me and making me gasp loudly when he attacked my neck.
“You know who the last person I had sex with was?” he asked biting my ear.
“Mmm…”
“Take a guess,” he laughed and for a moment our fervor was momentarily hampered.
“You,” I answered with mischief.
“Cheeky bastard, I don’t count!” Chris raised himself up on his elbows and gazed down at me, a lovely smile on his face.
“You are a person, aren’t you?”
“Yeah, but I mean with someone else apart from me,” he stated.
“Ummm,”, I pretended to think, enjoying the moment, rubbing my hands along his back and shoulders.
“Don’t be silly, Jay, you know the answer,” he told me and gently nipped my lower lip.
“Me?”
“Of course, Jonny Boy! And before it was….”
“You again.”
He rolled his eyes, “No, you, for years it’s been you and only you, and I’m happy it’s you,” he sounded so earnest, I could only look up at him with a gentle smile, for a moment I felt as if time had stopped and we were hypnotised there. Our bodies, though, could apparently not take our teasing any longer and as if we had been reading each other’s minds we plunged into one another at the same time, hands rubbing and stroking, mouths kissing and biting, his scruffy cheek pricking my chest as he slowly trailed down, planting kisses all the way.
