“I was thinking the same thing, but just the thought of it makes me anxious as hell.”

“I know, me too, but we need stuff.” He leans down and slides a kiss across my mouth, and then it intensifies to something more possessive.

“Mmm,” I hum, inhaling the scent of his freshly showered skin. He slips his tongue between my lips, deepening our connection.

By the time we break apart, I’m breathless, and a cocky smile plays on his lips. As my breasts rise and fall, he glances over at the clock. “I should probably get going if I want to find the good stuff before it’s all gone.”

“Should I come with you?” I ask. I’ve lived in shorts and T-shirts for the past few weeks, but I’d change into something warmer.

He shakes his head. “You’d have to sit in the car and wait. Most stores are only allowing one person per household inside at a time,” he explains.

“Well, I don’t mind. I’ve got my phone to keep me occupied and—”

Leaning forward, he kisses me again, making me forget what I was saying. “You’re too sweet, and I’ll never get enough of you, but you should stay here and hold down the fort.” His mouth crashes against mine, and heat rushes through my body. I try to hide my smile, but he notices.

“What?”

“Just realizing how much of a flirt you are, trying to distract me with your delicious mouth.” A blush hits my cheeks as my internal body temperature rises. I can’t stop thinking about him being inside me again. We’ve been taking it slow while we both try to recover because Eli still has difficulty breathing.

He pops an eyebrow. “You’re the only cock tease in this room.”

I scoff. “Seriously? You’re the guilty one.”

“Babe,” he says. Moving closer, he traces the shell of my ear with his mouth. “I’ve been thinking about the way you taste for weeks and would have you for breakfast every morning if you’d allow it.”

“Damn,” I say breathlessly. “I’ll be your breakfast every day starting tomorrow. Also, I’m pretty sure I just had an orgasm.”

He tucks loose strands of hair behind my ear, and I look up at him as he smirks.

“That’s all it took?” He chuckles.

“Tease!” I push against his chest, then start running when he charges for me.

“Take it back,” he playfully warns as he chases me around the kitchen.

Once he catches me, he tickles me until I nearly piss myself laughing.

I keep protesting and shaking my head until his lips capture mine again. “I don’t want you to go,” I admit, wrapping my arms around his neck. “Don’t leave me.”

“Trust me, I don’t want to, but we’re out of shit. I’ll try to get enough to last us a few more weeks at least. Make a list of things we need, and I’ll do my best to grab it all. Remember, the sooner I leave, the quicker I’ll return.” He winks.

“Think you can pick up some toilet paper?” I ask, half-joking, knowing it’s nearly impossible right now. Pretty sure it’s selling for several hundred dollars a roll on the black market.

I would’ve never imagined a time when toilet paper would be such a hot commodity, but everyone started hoarding it the moment people started panicking. Now it’s like finding the golden ticket in a Willy Wonka chocolate bar.

“I’ll see if I can find some,” he says. “If not, I’ll teach you how to do the pee and shake.”

“Gross!” I laugh.

I grab a sheet of paper from my notebook and begin to make a grocery list. Eli randomly adds stuff to it too.

“I want to make you a fancy dinner. What are you in the mood for?” he asks.

“You. On a plate. Naked.” As if he needed the reminder.

Eli takes off his shirt and stands in the kitchen. “Don’t tempt me, sweetheart. I’ll dick you down right now.” He growls, causing me to snort.

“Uhh,” I say. “Did you just say dick me down? Is that what all the players say these days?” Laughing, I lower my gaze down his body and admire every solid inch of him.

He shrugs, putting his shirt back on. “Apparently. Heard it from one of my roommates who’s addicted to Bumble and Tinder.”

I giggle. “Mm-hmm, sure. How about you surprise me? I don’t want to give you a meal choice because what if it’s impossible to find the ingredients? I’ve heard some things are tough to come by. You might not find half of what’s on this list.” I glance down at it. Who knew in today’s world there’d be struggles to get common everyday items?

“You’re right. I kinda forgot about that. I haven’t been out in so long, I’m not sure what to expect. I’m a little nervous being around people.”

I meet his eyes. “We could place a pickup order instead? I’m not sure when we could schedule it, but it’s an option if you don’t want to go out.”
