"Ouch" I murmur against my pillow.
My morning voice is deep and rough.
"You okay sexy?" I hear my boyfriend say.
I lift my head and watch him as he rubs his sleepy eyes.
"A little sore." I murmur. "Good morning."
I roll on top of him and he slips his arms around my waist.
"Good morning" He replies, craning his neck up and kissing my lips. I kiss him back.
"Why are you blushing?" He chuckles.
I blush deeper.
"Well.. Malcolm, I'm Naked, You're naked."
Malcolm kisses me and traces soothing shapes against my back.
"You honestly have a super innocent side and a really not innocent side."
I bury my face in his neck to hide the fact my blush could only be deepening.
"Shut up Babu."
"So what do you want to do today moonlight?" He asks me.
"I want to..... share some really good news." I say.
Malcolm's eyes lighten up. he holds me tighter.
"Spill the tea." He says, winking at me.
"Well... you know how I've nearly finished my fourth album?"
"Yeah"
"Well, Pharrell and I were in the studio the other day producing the album and he said that ... that if we did a song together .. sales were estimated to go up times ten. "
"No way." He grins. "That's so good!"
"I know right?!" I say excitedly.
"Of course, that's not why I want to do a song with you. I want to do a song with you because I love you."
"And we sound good together." He replies
"And I love creating with you." I wink.
"Count me in!"
He roles over so that he is planked above me on the bed.
"You know Ari.." He says, "I have some good news too."
"Yeah?" I bite my lip.
"You know how I'm performing in Portugal in a few days?"
I nod, sad at the thought of him leaving my side.
"Well.. " He continues. "I also bought a ticket for you!"
"Oh my gosh!!" I squeal, hitting his chest in excitement and then wrapping my arm around his neck, pulling him down and smothering him in kisses.
I look into his green eyes intently.
"Ari..." He strokes my bottom lip with his thumb. "Why are you crying."
"Because I'm so happy." I sniffle. "I'm so happy that the universe gave me you." I inhale deeply. "My soulmate."
The word leaves my lips as if something divine.
"Soulmate." Malcolm repeats, manifesting the word as something magnificent. He grins, so wide.
"Soulmates." He whispers against my lips, closing his eyes.
He takes my hands.
Our fingers intertwine.
"Queen Ariana Grande and The Magnificent Mac Miller. Soulmates." He whisper against my lips.
I shiver.
His finger runs over my ring and he smiles into our kiss.
It feels like fireworks. Like shooting stars because nothing else matters, because we live a dream.
I love him so much.
I just want to scream his name.
"You are my universe." He stokes my body, feels my curves. I feel like molten gold when I'm in his hands.
That's how good he makes me feel.
"Come inside of me." I ask urge him.
He does.
I moan, grasping onto him a little tighter.
We make the sweetest music. He takes me to paradise every. single. time.
