‘You’re asking me this before the sun’s even up?’

She smiles. ‘I like to be prepared.’

I think about it for a second – about everything we could do, everything waiting outside this room – then I glance down at her pressed against me, her hair a mess.

‘Honestly?’ I say, brushing my thumb along her jaw. ‘I’d be pretty happy just being here. Like this. All day.’

Her eyebrows lift a little. ‘Oh yeah?’

‘Yeah. Just you, this bed, and maybe coffee.’

She laughs quietly, stretching her arms above her head. ‘You’d get bored.’

‘Not a chance.’ I lean in, resting my forehead against hers. ‘I don’t get bored of you.’

She studies my face. ‘You think so?’

‘I know so.’

She snuggles closer, hooking her leg over mine. ‘I wouldn’t protest to a slow morning.’

‘See?’ I murmur. ‘I’m very convincing.’

She closes her eyes, her breathing evening out again.

‘Okay,’ she says. ‘We’ll stay here then.’

I tighten my arm around her. ‘Best plan I’ve heard all day.’

My fingers trail up her bare thigh. It’s driving me wild knowing that she is wearing only my t-shirt and is completely bare underneath it. Bryn looks to my lips. I can’t resist kissing her. She sighs into me, and my fingers dig into her hips. She thrusts toward me, encouraging me to continue. She moves her lips to my neck, lightly biting my skin. Everywhere her lips touch, I feel my skin burn. My eyes flutter closed as I tighten my grip on her. She drifts down my neck, sucking and biting softly.

I move my hand between her thighs, groaning at her warmth as I dip my finger in. Slowly, I pump it in and out of her, enjoying the gentle way we are exploring each other. When she rolls onto her back, I slowly inch the shirt up her stomach. The fabric catches on her breasts and makes them bounce as it tugs over them. I groan at the sight of it, watching them move as her chest rises and falls.

Bryn moans, moving her hips as I work my fingers faster, rubbing myself against her, the friction between our bodies feeling incredible. Rolling myself between her legs, I look in her eyes as I lick up her centre. Her fingers tighten around the sheets as I run my tongue up and down it, circling it around the little nub. She whimpers, squirming beneath me as I lap her faster and with more pressure. Wetness floods my mouth, dampening the skin around my lips. She inhales a sharp breath as I plunge my tongue deeper into her while pressing my thumb into her clit and moving it in slow rotations. I remember she used to like that, and it pleases me to see that’s still the case.

Bryn’s fingers move to my back and drag down my shoulder blades. I hiss at the stinging sensation, enjoying the pain a little too much.

‘Yes,’ I encourage her, applying more pressure. ‘Come for me.’

She cries out as she orgasms, and I continue licking furiously, enjoying every second of it. Still breathless and looking a little dazed, she reaches for me, pulling me up her body.

‘Make love to me, Ash,’ she whispers. ‘No mask. Just you.’

Searching her eyes, I take note of the adoration in them. The lust, the hunger, the overwhelming obsession. My eyes would mirror the same.

My cock is rock hard, aching with the urge to fill her up. I push inside her, gasping at how tight and warm she feels around me. I pause, bracing my arms either side of her as I breathe away the urge to release. I’m so pent up, I could spill inside her without even having to move. With a feather-light touch, she glides her hands down my back, slipping them over my ass and giving it a squeeze. I thrust deep into her and she moans, digging her nails into the soft tissue of my ass cheeks.

‘Eyes on me, Bryn,’ I whisper, noticing she likes to close her eyes.

They flutter open as she gazes up through her lashes.

‘More,’ she whispers.

‘Gladly,’ I croak. ‘You feel so fucking good.’

She moans over and over again as I begin to fuck her with hard, pounding thrusts. Her hand runs up my arm and slides over my neck to lightly touch my face. Our eyes are locked on each other as she arches her back. I press harder into her, allowing the friction of my body against hers to take over. Within a few seconds, I feel her legs tighten around my hips. Bryn cries out at the same time my orgasm crashes through me, pulsing intensely through every part of my body. I collapse on top of her then roll off carefully, panting hard, with sweat dotting my forehead.

‘Still happy to stay in today?’ I ask her with a smug smirk.
