It's Only The Heat [18+]

-35- 🌓 Teenage Dream

"You make me feel like I'm living a teenage dream, the way you turn me on. I can't sleep, let's run away and don't ever look back."
~Katy Perry, 'Teenage Dream'

*Kit's POV*

The golden beams of the sun shine between the curtains, warming up my back. I sigh contentedly, melting from the feeling of the soothing warmth on my bare skin, and the addictive warmth of the solid body pressed against mine.

Lifting a hand, I delicately trace the lines of Theo's sleeping face. From the outline of his puppy eyes, to the fullness of his lips, to the sharp curves of his jawline. As I'm curled up to his side, I carefully run my fingertips over his smooth skin. I don't doubt that I have his entire body memorized by now, but I'll never get tired of these little refresher courses.

Living with Theo has been more amazing than I had previously thought. Granted, it's only been two weeks, but I already can't imagine how I ever managed to live apart from him.

It helps that we christened every room of the house pretty much as soon as we were unpacked. Well, every room except the kitchen. Mainly because I know what Theo has planned for me in there, and I'm not going to give him the satisfaction.

My face burns as the memory of his teasing voice passes through my mind.

"Who said anything about boxers? I was imagining a bit more.... lace."

Not a chance in hell.

Theo exhales in his sleep, his breath tickling my neck. I try to scoot away, but his hold around my waist tightens, locking me in place. I squirm as his soft breath tickles my bare skin.

"Kit," Theo groans, peeking one eye open. "Stop moving so much or you'll have to take responsibility."

I stop squirming and tilt my head. "Take responsibility for what?"

"Well...." Theo drawls out before looking under the sheets. My gaze follows his and my cheeks burst into flames. Despite my embarrassment, I roll my eyes.

"In your dreams," I grumble.

He grins and pulls me to him until my back is pressed to his chest. "Oh, it definitely was in my dreams, baby."

The poking feeling on my lower back rules out any doubt that Theo had naughty dreams about me.

I elbow him in the gut, trying to writhe out of his iron grasp. We wrestle against each other on the bed, trying to establish dominance over each other. I take him by surprise when I throw my arms around his neck and pull him down into a searing kiss. Theo's body melts against mine as I slip my tongue into his mouth. I wrap my legs around his waist and grind against him. Theo moans into my mouth at my attacks on his body.

Once I have him right where I want him, writhing and pliable on top of me, I flip us over and pin his arms above his head.

"Didn't I tell you to be careful about letting your guard down?" I whisper with a teasing smirk.

Theo smiles back, his puppy eyes shining happily. "And I told you, I only let my guard down around those I trust with my life. And that's you, Kit."

Butterflies erupt in my stomach as my cheeks pinken. Goddess, how does this man manage to make me feel like a lovestruck teenager?

"I trust you with my life too," I tell him honestly. His smile widens and I lean down to lightly peck his lips. Theo whines beneath me, tilting his head up to wordlessly ask for more. I chuckle and lean back down and press another kiss to his lips, although this one is only a few seconds longer.

I pull back again, enjoying the adorable sight of Theo pouting. He nudges my cheek with his nose, silently telling me what he wants from me. I hover over his lips with a smile before moving my lips all around his face, peppering kisses wherever I can reach.

"I'm hungry," I abruptly announce, rolling off of Theo. I can feel his wide eyes on my back as I grab a pair of boxers and slip them on before leaving the room as if I didn't just rile him up.

A low growl from the bedroom has me breaking into a spirit as I laugh uncontrollably. Theo is on me in no time, tackling me to the ground.

"Such a naughty pup," Theo growls playfully, to which I stick my tongue out at him. We turn into a mass of shrieks and laughter as we wrestle on the floor, taking turns giving each other the upper hand and covering one another with kisses.

Theo presses his lips to the tip of my nose, making me smile.

"I love you, Kit," Theo says while smiling down at me. He sits up and pulls me into his lap. "I know I say it a lot, but that's only because I have this crazy amount of love for you and I don't know what to do with all of it. The best I can do is tell you how I feel every day. And fuck you senseless, but that's a given," he adds on with a cheeky grin.

I laugh at that last part. "You better be careful about the promises you make, Theo."

He furrows his brows in confusion. "What do you mean?"

I lean down and press our foreheads together. "If you promise to tell me you love me every day, I'll get used to it and I'll be expecting it. You better not make promises you can't keep."

"I promise," Theo reiterates firmly, "that I will tell you I love you every day, even when we fight, even when you're mad at me, even when I'm upset with you. I love you, Kit. And I will spend every single day of the rest of my life making sure you know it."

The biggest smile breaks out on my face, and I pull Theo to me. Our lips meet and I melt in his lap, sliding my fingers into his hair.

He hums in response, holding me close as he alternates between kissing me and whispering words of loving affirmation in my ear.
