“I’ve only come three times tonight.”
“Only!” Hunter groans, cupping my face. “I love you so much, but Daddy needs a break.”
“Don’t do that. I’m not Noah.”
“Oh, great. Not getting hard for the rest of the night, thank you.” I laugh, kissing him hard.
“What’s the matter, old man, can’t keep up?”
“I’m like five months older than you.” He engulfs me in his arms, pulling me across his body. We need a shower before my cum dries in the hair on his stomach. I don’t want to get up, though. Moments like these are my favorite. His brown eyessoften on mine and I cup his cheek, leaning in to kiss him. “Happy anniversary.”
He smiles, kissing my forehead. “I love you.”
“Thank you. For giving me a chance.”
Hunter smiles, tucking the loose strands of my hair behind my ear. “I can’t even imagine a world in which I didn’t. You’re the best thing I’ve ever taken a chance on.” Another kiss goes to my jaw, then neck. His eyes flutter closed, his breath deepens.
“Don’t fall asleep on me.”
“We have forever, baby. Let me sleep.”
I know that time with him like this is precious, and I don’t want to waste it. Between school, my game, Hunter’s rehab—at first—and his hockey, we don’t get much time alone together. I just can’t wait until we graduate. I can’t wait until we live together and I get to do this every day with him. For now, I’ll just enjoy this.
I kiss the side of his head. So much has changed this year, but the one thing that’s remained the same is how much I love him. “I feel you watching me,” he mumbles sleepily.
“Fine. I’ll let you sleep,” I whisper, lying down against his chest and swirling patterns along his skin. I love his body. I love how the warm weight of him just eases my anxiety. I still feel insecure sometimes, but I don’t ever feel unlovable. Not anymore. I’m so lucky he took a chance on me.
I’ll never ever break the trust he’s placed in me.
