“Don’t want to save the pie for a post-makeup-sex snack?” He raises a brow at me.
I shake my head firmly but still my grin doesn’t falter. “No. We should kind of talk before that happens.”
Reid’s face softens, and the corners of his lips twist in understanding. We clink our forks together before diving into the pie.
“I’m not sure I’m even hungry, but it feels like this is how we should commemorate the evening,” I reflect.
“I could think of other ways, but sure, a little more sugar today is exactly what we should enjoy.” I hear the lack of enthusiasm for that theory in his voice, but I only find it entertaining.
We both take a bite of the pie, and I notice his eyes focus on something behind me. I glance over my shoulder to see a block tower that Oscar built the other day, and it’s not to be touched, per his orders.
Looking back at Reid, I highlight the obvious. “Yep, I have a son, remember?” I remind him and wonder if this is where he freaks out about what he’s signing up for.
“I know.” He takes another scoop of pie.
“Okay, just so we are clear, toys scattered around are kind of a bonus when you decide that I’m the one you want to start something with.”
He smiles to himself as if he was prepared that I may gently grill him. “I know, and it’s not a deterrent.”
Butterflies move around my chest again. This is happening, it’s really happening.
I grab his fork and place it to the side along with mine before I interlace our hands, leaning in to nuzzle my nose with his own. “We’re doing this. Slow.”
“Yes.” He skims his lips along the corners of my mouth. “But not for tonight.”
In one movement, he slides me off the counter, and I instantly wrap my legs around his waist while our lips simultaneously fuse together.
He carries me, and without asking for directions, he finds my room, and we fall onto my bed together, lying across the mattress horizontally and nowhere near a pillow, but it doesn’t matter. We’re quick to discard clothing, and I don’t get much chance to admire his naked body because he’s between my legs, rubbing his tip between my folds.
“Fuck, you’re ready,” he comments against the skin of my breast.
“It doesn’t take much from you, now take me,” I insist.
He trails his lips up and down my throat, back to my mouth, then I feel his hand reach between us, flicking my clit a few times before guiding his length inside of me. Instantly, I dig my nails into his back because he goes deep. The way I like it when we have confirmations to make.
“Harder,” I implore.
“Wrap your legs tighter around me, I want to get deeper,” he insists with a gravelly voice.
I comply and feel new sensations inside of me. I tilt my pelvis up to get more because I’m greedy in this moment.
We fuck with abandon, and our breaths are laced with moans. And when he pins my wrists to the mattress next to my head then looks me in the eyes, I have an inclination that a part of me was always with him, and I get it back in this very moment. It’s crazy but every sign is indicating that this is right, what it’s supposed to be.
I like who I am now, I like who he is, and most of all, we are better now than then.
I tip my lips up to capture a kiss and our sounds mix between our mouths, the mattress moving with us on every thrust.
God, when we both get there, I think we evaporate into the mattress, unable to move, and it doesn’t even matter because we are together with twisted limbs, and my favorite part is when he rests his chin into the curve of my neck, not leaving me.
“I can’t get enough of you,” he mumbles against my lips.
I comb my fingers through his hair. “That’s good because you’re stuck with me. We have a lot to figure out, but you are so stuck with me.”
“In that case, let’s sleep like this. We did it once.”
I hum in response. “I remember, the superpowers of the younger us. We fell asleep with you inside of me and woke and you were still inside of me. I didn’t think it was physically possible.”
“It’s only possible with you and…” He begins to stir and then I realize he is rolling us until he’s on his back. “We’re trying it again.”
