Booker: Wake up, baby.

I smiled as I rolled over, coming face-to-face with my first love. “The Booker Thomas Ruler I knew liked to sleep until noon.” I checked the time of my phone. “It’s barely seven am.”

He signed: I missed you. It was simple, three movements with his finger, but they melted me.

“I missed you too.”

I scooted closer to him, kissing his lips because I’d spent too many years without having the chance.

I wrapped my arms around his neck as he shifted above me, deepening our connection. When he’d pulled away from me last night, I’d been a little surprised. All our time apart, all those dirty text messages. I’d assumed he’d want more. That he’d want it all.

Instead, he’d held me so tight while I drifted off to sleep.

“I thought last night, uh, I thought you’d at least try for second base.” I could feel myself blushing and suddenly I was fifteen all over again.

He held up one finger, telling me to wait as he used his phone to type out a message. He turned it to me, a smirk on his handsome face.

Booker: There’s no rush, baby, we have all the time in the world.

I nodded, my eyes narrowing as I met his gaze once again. “Pretty words, like always.

But how about, there’s no time like the present?”

He laughed, silent and perfect. He pointed to his phone, then mine, a question in his eyes. I knew what he was getting at, so I shook my head as I pulled him down for another kiss.

No more phones, I wanted the real thing from this moment on.

Booker + Macie

She was still here. She was real and she was writhing underneath me. I thought my life couldn’t possibly get any better after last night, hearing here tell me she still loved me. But here we were, rapidly shedding our clothes while we did everything we could to not disconnect our fevered kisses.

It was better than a dream, it was a fantasy.

I’d meant what I told her, we had all the time in the world. But if my girl didn’t want to wait another second, then I damn well wasn’t going to make her.

I slid my palm along her bare thigh, savoring in the feel of her skin against mine. I gripped behind her knee, bringing her leg to my hip, making room for me to settle against her.

I didn’t ask if I needed protection, I knew I didn’t. She’d always wanted kids, and I’d always wanted to give them to her.

Her fingers tangled in my hair, her back arching off the mattress. I nipped at the column of her throat, wishing in that moment that I could speak. That I could tell her how fucking beautiful she looked tangled in my sheets, how much I loved her.

How grateful I was she was here, and that she’d forgiven me.

That she was still mine.

I couldn’t give her my words, so I poured all my emotions into my actions.

I kissed her so she’d know she was the most precious thing in the world to me. I surged inside her and she drove me fucking wild. I used my body to make her feel loved and desired.

After the time and distance that’d separated us, being inside Macie was so damn surreal.

She felt fucking amazing, like coming home. Her soft cries muffled against my neck, the way her nails bit into my biceps. I didn’t know how much longer I would last.

I’d been too long without her, and I’d missed her too much.

“God, Booker, I’m so close.” Her head tilted back, exposing the slender column of her throat.

I dipped down, marking her skin, claiming her as mine.
