He stirs but his eyes are still closed. He doesn’t want to leave his dream world where he actually gets to have her, but as he shifts, he feels a warm body next to him and it all comes rushing back. He smiles, tightening his grip on her waist and burying his head in her hair. He revels in her soft scent of rose, jasmine and vanilla as he pulls her body closer against his. Drifting in and out of sleep, he absentmindedly dances his fingers across the smooth skin of her abdomen.
Her eyes flutter open as she feels the heat from his hands. She stays as still as she can, using his sleepy state to take in her surroundings, to replay yesterday’s events in her head. She is thankful he’s facing away as she feels a blush rise from her chest to her cheeks, leaving them very rosy. She’s still in a slight fog, having trouble believing he really is beside her. That he’s in her bed. She bites her lip, a bad nervous habit, trying to keep her breathing even as she melts into his embrace.
