One month later...
I'm startled awake.
My body flinches hard and my head whips around to see a figure looming over me in the dark. A pair of arms are planted either side of my body. Essentially trapping me.
"It's me, baby." Zak whispers, giving me reassurance, pressing a kiss on my forehead.
"You're home." I reply, rolling onto my back, welcoming his cologne and minty breath.
"Couldn't keep away. I'm going to take a shower, I stink, the RV was stuffy as hell. Won't be long."
"Imma sleep." I mumble causing a soft laugh to leave his lips.
"You do that. Love you." I feel him kiss my head again before disappearing.
I merely rest my eyes, listening to the water from the shower. I had predicted he would be home soon, his lack of details of where he was, was a big give away. So I didn't ruin his surprise, I kept quiet. Because I had two surprises of my own.
When he slides into bed 30 minutes later, he is quick to shuffle across the bed and against me.
"Oh."
I laugh tiredly. "Welcome home."
"When did this start?" He asks, running his hand over my bare body.
"I figured sleep clothes were overrated."
"Halle-fucking- Ujah. I hated not feeling you, skin to skin." He wiggles in some more and I purposely push my butt back into him. "Elle..."
"Shh. Sleep."
"Umm." He stalls as his body reacts to mine almost instantly. "I can't help this.."
Grinning in the dark, I lift my leg and hook it over the back of his.
"Yep. On it." He says getting the idea of what I want. "I- Christ you smell good."
Like I said, I planned ahead.
His hand roams over my smooth leg before he groans and takes advantage of the position I am in, holding my hip, he begins rocking against me.
"You're all I've thought about." He whispers against my ear, causing a tickling sensation.
"Hmm."
"What I want to do with you, how much I'm going to devour you, how breathless I can make you."
All these words drift into my ear, boggling my mind, until the soft love making turns into urgent want and need.
We both finish on a shout and cry, exhausted and wrapped in each other's arms. His breath fanning over my shoulder as he presses a kiss into it.
"Welcome home." I smile, drugged from his love.
"The best welcome home I've ever got. How are you?"
I grin. "Amazing. Floaty, lightheaded."
"Same here."
We drift off just before the sun comes up, which is perfect, as I have one more surprise up my sleeve for him..
**
"Morning beautiful." Zak says as he steps into the kitchen, supporting a pair of black boxers and that's it.
My goodness that man has no shame. He will give someone a damn heart attack at this rate.
But, two words from Zak's mouth and I'm beaming like a sunrise. He sees it and grins.
