“Cappuccino with cinnamon?”
“No problem,” she said with a little laugh. “Make yourself at home. My table is now your table, too. I will be right back.”
Nia returned to the line and waited her turn again before she ordered the cappuccino for Emmy as Emmy packed up her things from her own table and moved them over to hers. She saw her carefully set her laptop away from Nia’s stuff so as not to mess anything up and sit down. Then, Emmy looked up at her and gave her that wide smile again, and Nia took a deep breath.
EPILOGUE
Nia
Emmy’s mouth was on her, and thank God for that because Nia had missed it.
“Yes, baby. Don’t stop.”
“Why would I stop? I had to go a whole week without you. I want you all night long,” Emmy replied.
Emmy had been at an academic conference for four days, but her flight had been canceled due to terrible weather, and in order to get out at all, she’d had to rent a car and drive to another airport where she’d gotten a flight, had a long layover, and had finally gotten home to Nia, who had been patiently waiting, worried for her girlfriend. Emmy would’ve waited a day or two for another flight, but they had a wedding to go to tomorrow, and it was already after eleven at night. She would have missed it otherwise, and while that wouldn’t have been the end of the world, Emmy knew Nia wanted to go to the event with her girlfriend on her arm.
“Fuck! Yes,” she said when Emmy slid two fingers inside her.
“I missed you,” Emmy replied.
“God, I missed you, too. Why do you have to be such a popular professor who has to go on these trips?”
“It’s only the second one since we met.” Emmy laughed a little. “Now, focus, love.”
That had always been one of Emmy’s terms of endearment for her since they’d started dating, but after they’d told one another that they loved each other for the first time, it became the primary one she used. Nia loved it, and she loved Emmy. They’d been together for a little over a year, and they were taking their first trip together to celebrate their anniversary in a few weeks. Nia couldn’t wait to be on a beach with the woman she loved.
She expected Emmy to be tired from the day she had, but she didn’t seem to be as she kissed Nia hard, stroking her slowly inside. Nia could always tell when Emmy missed her like this. They fucked, yes, but whenever Emmy missed touching her, she did so slowly the next time they were together, and that always seemed to be what Nia’s body craved.
“I’m close,” she said and placed her hand on the back of Emmy’s head.
Emmy sucked harder, curling her fingers a little faster, and Nia came undone beneath her.
“God, baby. I needed that,” she said when she caught her breath.
“So did I.” Emmy climbed back up her body. “You’re beautiful. I didn’t say that when I first walked in.”
“You don’t have to say it every time, you know?” Nia laughed.
“Oh, yes, I do.”
“I really missed you.” She cupped Emmy’s cheek. “And I missed this.” She looked down and took in Emmy’s body. “But I just missed you being here.”
“Me too. The good news is that I don’t have any more conferences scheduled right now, and we’re about to go–”
“Move in with me,” Nia interrupted.
“What?”
“Move in with me. I love you. Move in here.”
“You don’t want to wait until the effects of that orgasm I just gave you die down before you ask that question?” Emmy chuckled.
“I want you to move in with me. I want you home.”
“My lease has–”
“Six months left, I know. Break it or keep it, but move your stuff in here. I want you here with me, Em.”
