“Move over.”

Elliot rolls off of me and pulls his shorts off. Lust pools in my stomach and trickles into my blood as I stare at him, sprawled naked on our bed. Sometimes, I wake up worried I dreamed it, until I see him right there beside me. In moments like these, my life doesn’t feel real.

I pull my shirt up and off…slowly. When it clears my head and I can see again, I find Elliot’s eyes laser-focused on me. He loves it when I strip for him. I think it’s because it reminds him of our first time together. That’s what I always think of.

I finish shedding the rest of my clothes. I try to be deliberate and sensual about it, but eventually I just start flinging socks. He’s been gone for over a week. I don’t know if it’s that or pregnancy hormones, but my body is basically vibrating with need.

Elliot is just as worked up. He pretty much attacks me as soon as I’m on the bed.

“You know how I said not to make any plans for tomorrow night?” he asks.

It takes me a minute to form a word. His hand is between my legs. “Ye-yeah.”

“There’s going to be a question component to the evening. Don’t think it has anything to do with what you told me tonight, okay? Other people might think that, but I don’t want you to. I’ve been planning it for months. I asked your dad weeks ago.”

I focus on him. “You mean…”

“Yeah.” He nods, as if the verbal confirmation wasn’t enough. He seems almost nervous, and it makes my heart feel like it’s bursting. “Unless…if you don’t want me to ask…”

“No, I do.”

“Okay, good.” He kisses me again.

I kiss him back to the rapid beat of my heart as I luxuriate in one of the rare moments in life where everything is completely, impossibly perfect.

THE END
