He lies down and slinks his arm around me.

“I’m all right. I’m all right.” I sniff. “I’m just... going to need a minute. Or two. Or... ten. Ten minutes.”

He kisses my shoulder. “That good, huh?” he asks, smiling.

I playfully slap his arm. “Shut up.”

“I mean, you squirted.”

“Is that what that was?” I cringe. “Shit, I’m sorry.”

“Don’t be sorry. That’s like... a dude’s dream,” he says. I laugh and he kisses the edge of my mouth. “Please do that again and again.”

“I’ll try,” I say, limp and weak.

“I’ve never made a girl do that before.”

“Really?” I ask, smiling at the confession.

“Really,” he says, softly whispering in my ear. “You’re the first.”

I settle even heavier against the bed as Drew holds me close. He caresses my back and arm, fingers gliding along my tattoo and entering the ridge between my shoulder blades.

“That feels nice,” I hum.

He kisses my temple. I wipe my cheeks dry, my tears already gone. I feel warm and treasured. Blissful and loved, completely.

I raise a hand and Drew takes it. Our fingers entwine as if they were always meant to. We kiss once, our lips fitting perfectly together like little puzzle pieces.

“You okay now?” he asks, his voice whisper-quiet.

“Yeah,” I answer. “Are you?”

He grins. “Never been better.” He wets his lips, pressing them together as he gazes at me. “You’re beautiful, you know that?”

I smile. “You’re the only boy whose ever called me that before.”

“Other boys are stupid,” he says. I laugh. “So very stupid.”

He kisses me and pulls me in until our bodies are flush together again.

A phone vibrates on the bedside table; two light rumbles signaling a text message. We both groan. Who has the audacity to interrupt this moment?

“It’s your phone,” I say, glancing at it.

Drew reaches for it. “It’s Seth,” he reads.

“What’s he want?” I ask.

“We got third door shift at the party this Saturday,” he says, as he taps out a reply. He tosses the phone aside and comes right back to me. “Need to make sure I’m there by nine.”

“You’ll be there long before that, though.”

“Will I?”

I shrug. “Sure. Why not?”

“I just... thought we were hanging out this Saturday.”
