Addie has fallen asleep and its been about two hours of me lying here staring at the ceiling. Its about 6am and the sun has started coming up, lighting up the strip and the emptiness of the streets that were previously full when night fall covered it. Addie and I haven't looked at eachother since having sex, she rolled over and went right to sleep. I run a frustrated hand through my hair and finally glimpse at her, peaceful as ever. I blow out a sigh and sit up, I'm still naked. I stumble in the dark using only the light peaking through gap in the curtains that's trying to keep the sun out. I find my boxers at the end of the bed on the floor and put them on. When I enter the bathroom I pee and wash my hands but stop when I'm drying them. I have a hickey on my chest. A hickey, I smile and then laugh a little bit before I find the cresent moon shapes on my shoulders from Addie's nails. I shake my head and put the hand towel down before exiting.

I stare at her from the doorway, her non the wiser, thinking of the last thing she said to me before rolling over and going to sleep. "You called me baby." I had stated to her, her simple reply was. "What are we?" And  it grew silent after that. I walk back over to the bed and get in the covers careful not to disturb her. She shifts but it just makes her body come closer to mine. Her brown curls trailing her pillow like they're vines caressing a tree. I push her hair out of her face and kiss her forehead. She takes in a breath, smiles, and falls back into her dream state. Today is the last day here in Vegas, but our flight isn't until like 6:20 so we have some time to get breakfast, chill, and then return my dad's car. Honestly I'm content spending my whole day in bed with her, sex or not. I want Addie, more then a friend and more then benefits. But she has so many shields up from me that I'm discouraged at even asking her. I end up drifting off from battling my thoughts and I'm awoken to a hair dryer. I squint with the curtain being fully open and the bathroom door is open as well, showing the light from inside and the loud noise blowing air.

I sit up and stretch, yawning like a scene in a movie. My body feels heavy now and I don't even know what time it is but I sneak up on Addie and she jumps at my reflection next to hers. "Brendon!" She shouts and turns off the hair dryer. "You scared me!" She laughs and playfully pats my chest. "Well that thing is really loud," I point to the hair dryer and she makes a sympathetic face. "Sorry, I managed to pack and get a shower without waking you." She smiles like that was an accomplishment. "In a rush?" I ask, my arms encasing her in a hug from behind. She didn't tense up like usual. "No I just had to get out of bed." Is her immediate answer. I kiss her shoulders and move to her neck where she moans the faintest noise and her body pushes back into mine. Then she corrects herself and pulls away completely. "No, I'm getting dressed and doing my makeup. Go get ready, I want food." She commands and I laugh. "I wasn't trying to seduce you, and I need a shower." She looks at the glass doors and back at me with a challenging eyebrow. "Ok." Is all I say and tear my boxers down making her squeal and look away. I'm still semi hard because its the morning and she looks up at the ceiling like she is trying to read a small print up there. I stifle another laugh and get into the shower turning on the water. "You know, you saw me naked last night. And again before that, and-"

"I get it!" She bursts and turns her hair dryer on. I shower while she finishes her hair and starts on her makeup. She is trying to do wing tips but it takes her a while. I turn off the water and get out reaching for the towel. Our eyes meet and she blushes. "What Addie?" I ask, I'm probably smiling like an idiot. "Nothing," she muses and puts her make up away before exiting. I towel dry my hair before wrapping it around my waist and heading to my duffle bag. Addie is on her phone when I walk by for my clothes. "Where did you want to eat?" I ask fishing for my outfit. "That's what I'm looking up now." She mumbles quietly. I drop my towel, my ass in full view and I give her a pointed look, smirking down at her sitting crossed legged on the bed. "Um B-Brendon?" She stutters, morning complete. I pull up my boxer briefs and turn towards her. "Yes?" I ask, smirking still. "Nevermind." She fusses and I get closer. "No, what is it?" She puts her phone down. "Nothing, forget it." She replies quietly not breaking eye contact. "Addie?" I drag out her name as I climb over her and pin her to the bed with my body looming over hers. "B-Brendon?" She matches my tone but stutters.

"God, I love making you nervous." She blushes and my lips cover hers. I'm not trying to have sex with her again, I just want to kiss her. All day, everyday, everywhere. "Brendon, I'm really hungry." She tries to break the kiss. "I just want to kiss you for a minute." I whisper against her face and I feel her body relax into mine.

Finally.

I cup her face and push my tongue against hers. I've missed this, having someone. Having the ability to kiss someone in the morning and holding them until the sun comes up. I didn't realize how much I've missed human touch. I pull away with my one last kiss and she smiles up at me. "Ok let's go eat now." She glances down at my hard on and giggles. "After you get dressed and calm down." I glance down to where she was looking.

"Right."

"I had an amazing time, thank you I actually really needed that." She confesses to me in her living room. I walked her up to her apartment. "Honestly, same. Thank you for going with me." It gets quiet and awkward. God take me back to where we were pass this. Take me back to Vegas. "See you at work?" She mumbles and I nod. "Yeah absolutely." I'll leave it be for now. But I want to talk to her, no need to rush and ruin our trip. Maybe she needs some time to think too. "Have a good night." I reply and leave shutting the door. I'm halfway down the hall when I hear a door open and footsteps. "Brendon." She gasps running to me. I turn around just in time to catch her in my arms and lean back against the wall to brace for impact. Her lips are on mine and I kiss her back with just as much passion. Her legs are wrapped around my waist and I feel every part of her body pressed against mine. I eventually put her down and we stare into each others eyes, panting. "Thank you." She says again and I kiss her lips lightly. "You're welcome." She smiles, blushes and leaves, for good this time.

Wow how this girl got under my skin.
