Natalie reached for me and it was easy to enfold her in my arms and hold her close. It was easy to stroke her hair and then kiss her mouth.
She kissed me back, hard, as if she was trying to prove something.
My head swam and I let myself get lost in the feel of her. The taste of her. The smell of her.
Natalie surrounded me completely.
She pulled me closer, and somehow we ended up horizontal on the couch. In the back of my mind, I remembered that there was some reason we weren’t supposed to do that, but I didn’t care.
There wasn’t enough room for us to move, and I got frustrated that I couldn’t touch as much of her skin as I wanted. Too many pesky clothes in the way.
Natalie broke the kiss and looked into my eyes.
“We should stop,” she said, but her hands had slipped under my shirt and were skating along my belly, causing me to break out in goosebumps.
“We should,” I said, but she didn’t, and I didn’t ask her to.
“You know, my bed has a lot more room,” I said. “I just don’t want you to hurt your back or anything.”
“Right. Yeah. I’m really worried about back pain,” she said.
“Exactly. So, it’s really the only option,” I said, swallowing.
She nodded slowly. “It is the only option.”
I stood up and she followed me back to the bedroom. I closed the door behind us.
I thought Natalie was going to tell me to stop. To remind me of the rules we had literally just made.
She didn’t. “Come here,” she said.
I went to her.
This time when we kissed, it was soft. Slow.
“I love your lips,” she whispered.
“Thank you. I made them myself,” I said, and she let out a little laugh.
We made our way to the bed and lay down together, just staring at each other.
Natalie’s hair floated around her face.
“You’re so beautiful,” I said.
“So are you,” she said.
I watched as she reached for my shirt again, looking up to make sure I was okay with it.
I nodded and we sat up as she pulled my shirt over my head. I hadn’t known any of this was going to happen or else I would have chosen my underwear with a little more effort.
Natalie still looked at me as if I was the most beautiful thing she’d ever seen.
Her fingers fluttered down my chest and stopped at my belly button.
Fire licked at my skin, and as much as I enjoyed a slow seduction, I was too impatient.
“Can I take off your shirt?” I asked.
