Chapter 31

You back yourself up against the wall, your breathing harder and his hands wrapped tighter around you.
"Are you sure you're ready for this?" Tom asks, drawing only his lips back.
"Are you? I mean your ribs-"
"I'm ready."
You smile up at him, confident, "So am I."
His lips lock with yours and his hand goes up your shirt. You allow him to slide it up your body as you unbutton his shirt. He walks you against the wall, and when you don't feel it against your back, he picks you up and carries you to the bedroom.

It may not have been perfect but it felt right. It wasn't the way you imagined it but this was real. It was pretending to know exactly what you were doing even though your mind was all over the place. It was a lot of "You're amazing." and "Is this okay?
It was moving together as your bodies said everything.
"I love you.
I need you.
Be mine forever.
Take all of me.
I was only ever yours."

And after you were finished, he held you against him, never wanting to let you go just as you never wanted to let him go. For a while you just lay together talking.
You stroked the scar above his eyebrow, you knew it wouldn't go away, it would have been an ugly reminder but nothing on Tom's face was ugly. Not even the fading bruise on his cheek which you started stroking next. He didn't mind, he simply grabbed your other hand and placed kisses all over your knuckles, your arm, making his way back up to your lips.
"I love you so much." You whisper against his neck.
"I love you more than I can say." He whispers against your skin, sending tingles all over your body.

You start up again and you revel in the feeling of having his body completely against yours. Tom you figured was like a drug, one hit wasn't enough, you needed more of him to ever be completely satisfied. And now you were.
You fell asleep later that night, to the sound of his breathing, a sound you knew you would never get tired of.
