Rest my forehead against hers.
 
 Rock her world.
 
 I love you.
 
 Twenty-Four
 
 Elizabeth
 
 My world is rising and falling like an inflatable balloon. Like a boat drifting on choppy waves.
 
 I moan.
 
 Try to get the bed to stop moving.
 
 The bed responds by holding me tighter.
 
 Wait.
 
 My eyes burst open.
 
 Sunlight burns my irises.
 
 Golden rays.
 
 Rumpled sheets.
 
 A man’s chest.
 
 I gasp.
 
 Brogan’s chest.
 
 The sheets dip low enough to reveal—
 
 I sigh in disappointment.
 
 He’s wearing a pair of tight black boxers.
 
 I peek down at myself.
 
 Cringe.
 
 I’m still naked.
 
 Last night comes rushing back to me.
 
 Brogan over me.
 
 Inside me.
 
 Kissing me.
 
 Heat.
 
 Sweat.
 
 His groans in my ear.
