Squeezing him to me, I peppered his jaw with more kisses. "I can't get enough of you."

Glancing up into his eyes, I saw such heat and love, a potent combination that made me melt. Staring at each other, I felt the desire between us grow once more, rising up like a flickering flame. Josh must have sensed it as well because his breathing increased, and before I knew it, he was kissing me again like he was claiming me all for himself.

"I love you so much," he said softly. "I want you again. Desperately."

"Me too. God, me too," I managed to say.

He pulled back slightly, aligning himself with me. My eyes not leaving his stunning body, he guided himself into me, just barely, surprising me with teasing, shallow thrusts, his tip rubbing me where I was ultra-sensitive.

"W-what are you doing?" I gasped.

"You're so damn responsive," he breathed.

With his thumb, he began to stroke me between my legs, circling, making me whimper. He plunged into me more fully, alternating shallow thrusts with deeper ones, the anticipation of what he might do next turning me on even more.

As if that wasn't enough, he then did something that nearly brought me to tears. His free hand reached for mine, and we clasped them together in a way that spoke of intimacy, of love, of soulmates.

Where before had been fast and furious, now was slow and sensual. That had been fucking. But this was making love.

"Jess..." Josh sighed, my name on his lips the sweetest sound in the world.

In no rush, we took our time, Josh lavishing me with kisses as he brought me to the brink with his magic fingers. We worked together perfectly, striving to bring each other the ultimate pleasure.

Josh held out, waiting for me, and drove me to oblivion as I reached my climax, a release so strong I clung to him with all my might, trembling from the sheer intensity. I opened my eyes just in time to see Josh's face covered with ecstasy as he exploded inside me once more.

Seriously, the man was beautiful.

Our eyes met, chests heaving, before Josh's head collapsed on my shoulder.

"I didn't even know it could be like that," he said, his breath coming out in short spurts like he'd just returned from a run.

"Me neither," I agreed.

He removed his head from my shoulder, looking at me with tender eyes. "Yeah? It was good for you?"

I couldn't help the smile on my face as I gave him my sarcastic answer. "What do you think?"

"Give me the words, Jess," he demanded.

My smile grew at this little crack of vulnerability in my Josh. "It was the absolute best," I finally answered.

And now, his grin grew cocky, and I wondered what would come out of his mouth as it seemed like he had an internal conversation about it. In the end, though, all he said was, "Same for me. Same."

And here we were, staring again, something magical passing between our sustained gaze while our lungs caught up and our hearts slowly returned to normal. But there was nothing normal about my heart anymore. It was all caught up with Josh and the way he made me feel.

One thing I didn't understand through all this was why a guy like Josh would even want me. What did he see in me exactly? From my past, I knew the male species didn't like this question. But Josh was stuck with me now, and I didn't give a crap what he might think. I wanted to know.

"Hey," I said. "Can I ask you a question?"

He raised a brow, not saying anything, just nodding slightly as if he sensed something already.

"Why do you like me?"

A hiss came out from between his lips. "What kind of question is that?"

I giggled in his face. "You better get used to it."

"Well, first of all. I don't like you. I love you."
