We make love once more, this time slower, taking the time to explore each other's bodies with our hands and mouths. The sheets become as hot as our bodies, but we're too enveloped in this moment to give a shit. I get her to tell me what she likes, how she wants to be touched, and she does the same with me until it feels like we know every inch of each other.
When our energy is spent, I pull Nova under the covers and she snuggles close. It's not long before the high begins to fade and we both fall into a peaceful sleep.
I wake in the morning when the sun's rays break through a crack in the blinds. My eyes flutter open, and the first thing I'm aware of is Nova's naked body pressed against mine. Just like at the beach, my body instantly reacts. Shit. At this rate, I'm going to need to find relief before she wakes up.
Nova stirs in her sleep and rubs her cheek against my chest, her body moving the slightest bit against mine. I squeeze my eyes shut and take a deep breath, trying not to picture what it would be like to wake up next to her every morning. I hope there's a way we can recall her request because this – this is everything I didn't know I wanted. Needed.
Sleeping with her was nothing like the girls I've hooked up with. The emotions and passion...And that's not just because she's good in bed – man, that mouth of hers...I shake my head because if I keep thinking about this, I'm going to need to get out of here before she wakes up, and I really don't want to do that. I don't want her to wake up alone.
So, I close my eyes and revel in this moment, remembering what happened last night. I wish this would have happened before we hooked up after drinking too much, but now that I really think about it, maybe it's a good thing. If that hadn't happened between us, I don't know if she would have ever told me about her past. Meaning, the possibility of a relationship wouldn't have opened up.
Dipping my head down, I kiss Nova's shoulder. It takes a moment, but I'm eventually looking into those big brown eyes, and all I can think is, Yeah, I could get used to this.
