When we finish, we lay in each other’s arms, our breath coming in pants, hearts thudding against our chests. I bury my head in her hair and gently bite her at the junction of her neck and shoulder. I’m still hard, and I’m sure I can go again in two minutes, but she’s exhausted, and I want her to rest.
“Slide off me, baby. Let’s get you to bed.”
She doesn’t move, and I do it for her, laying her on her back next to me. I don’t bother to get up to clean myself, just pull the covers over us and go to sleep. Lana ended up waking me at 4:00 AM for round two. We stayed up until 5:30, making love and slept until well past nine.
I woke and propped myself up on my elbow to watch her sleep, but she only had her eyes closed and smiled at me, touching my cheek with her knuckles. I felt her ring scrape against my stubble and took her palm to my lips to kiss.
“You’re going to be my wife. Do you know that?”
“Do you know you’re going to be my husband?”
“I do. So any thoughts on when we should get married?”
“I like summer, and I want a beach wedding.”
“Seriously? I thought you would want all the pomp and circumstance of a big venue like the Waldorf.”
She wrinkles her nose, “Nope, not for me. I want to get married at my parent’s house in the Hamptons.”
“You can have anything you want. Are you ready to see my parents on Wednesday?”
“I’m nervous. I wish Paige were going.”
“Paige doesn’t want my parents to nag her as they can sometimes do. I escaped it because I’m so much older.”
“I just worry that they're not going to like me.”
“They would be crazy not to. You’re wonderful. Intelligent, sweet, and fiery all at the same time, great in bed.”
“Like you’re going to tell your parents that last part.”
“I will if you want me to.”
“Zane! Really?”
I start laughing, “You know we’re going to have to sleep in separate bedrooms and no secret closet doors. Can you handle being alone for a few nights?”
“No, but I’ll have to deal with it even though I won’t like it.”
“Maybe I’ll sneak into your bedroom when my parents are asleep.”
“You can’t do that. Suppose they find us.”
“So? We’re engaged. Do you honestly think that they don’t know we have sex?”
“I’m sure they do, especially since we’re living together, which by the way my father wasn’t too keen on.”
“You’re twenty-five. You can make your own decisions.”
“Yes, I can, but he still thinks of me as his little girl.”
“What about Princess Alicia? Would he care if she lived with a man?”
“I don’t know. She already called me a slut for moving in with you. She said that you’d never ask me to marry you if I gave it away without a ring on my finger.”
“She must be livid now that you’re engaged.”
“I didn’t tell her. I’m sure my parents will. I know she’s the one that sent you that text when I was in Virginia. I haven’t forgiven her for that.”
