Hobbs paused for only a second, frozen either by her words or her touch or both, before he grabbed his wallet from the coffee table, fumbled inside, muttered something about never making fun of himself again for having a condom in there, some tearing open with his teeth and a package tossed to the floor. As soon as he was ready, Tabitha drew him in again, her hands on his hips, forcing him closer, up, in, until there was nowhere left to go. The sensation hit her with such force she threw her head back, against the pillows, the explosion going off inside her drowning out the memory of fireworks, the memory of explosions, the memory of anything that had taken her down in the past, brought her to her knees, until there was nothing left but the sweet blackness of this, a midnight sky that rolled on forever, dotted with stars, reminders of ancient things so much bigger than their bodies, their problems, their worlds.

A million different curses tumbled from Hobbs’s lips as he buried his face in her sweaty neck, his body a reaction to hers, moving in a rhythm she had created and he willingly followed. Tabitha felt herself building again, her body a delicious, painful traitor, sensations she hadn’t known existed shaking her from the inside out.

“That’s it, baby.” Hobbs’s voice was warm and tender against her ear, his body somehow moving exactly how she wanted it to. “Let it go.”

The fire inside her was hotter now, the sparks shooting like a meteor shower, Hobbs’s voice the fuel and his body stoking her, driving her higher. Her heart beat so hard, her lungs both tight and full, the intensity hooked her, shook her, made her cry out.

Hobbs’s eyes opened, his gaze searching, his hips moving while he braced himself around her. “Stay with me, Tabby,” he whispered, like he saw right into her, felt everything she was feeling, knew the intensity was almost unbearable, was new, was a little terrifying, like flying, like jumping into that midnight sky without a parachute. “That’s it. Right there.”

His voice was all around her now, his gaze locked in, holding her, his body moving with hers but also holding her up, until the world imploded, the sky bloomed, the fear strangled itself and Tabitha jumped.

Together, they both let go.
