“I was pretty happy with what you could do when you were half-asleep.”

He chuckles and drops his towel. “I think we can do even better this time.”

When he climbs into the bed with me, he’s as good as his word, taking a long time to kiss and caress me until I’m desperately turned on, squirming and gasping and making silly mewing sounds that I’ve never heard myself make before.

Finally, I assume he’s ready to get to the main event, but he takes another detour, kissing his way down my body until he’s nuzzling at my groin. I have to reach up and grab the headboard when he pulls my thighs apart and starts to work on me with his tongue and lips and face.

He makes me come twice before he’s done, and he’s smiling in pleased pride when he straightens up.

I giggle, my body warm and soft and relaxed from my orgasms. “You shouldn’t look so smug.”

“Oh yes, I should.”

“Fine. You’re really good at that. Thank you.”

“You don’t have to thank me. It was the hottest thing ever. Do you want me to use a condom? We didn’t earlier, so I hope that wasn’t a—”

“It’s okay. I’m on birth control.” Amber was, and I’ve been taking her pills to sustain the ruse. “I think we’ll be fine without a condom, unless you’d rather use one.”

He shakes his head and moves over me so he can kiss me slow and soft. Then he bends my legs and guides himself inside me, the tight penetration causing both of us to groan.

I’m a little sore from the sex we had a couple of hours ago, but not enough to matter. I hold on to his ass as he starts to pump, loving that I’m allowed to do so.

He takes me like that for several minutes. I have a number of small, fluttery climaxes and thoroughly enjoy it. Then he repositions onto his knees and raises my bottom, entering me again. He’s finally losing his control. His motion becomes faster and harder.

Both of us are grunting and panting as we build momentum, until I’m suddenly crying out loudly as a more powerful orgasm hits me unexpectedly. I shake and gasp and whimper as he keeps fucking me through it, and I haven’t yet come down when he lets go too.

He lies on top of me for a long time afterward as the last shudders of pleasure fade and our bodies relax. He occasionally presses a kiss against the crook of my neck.

He’s not much of a talker in bed, but he doesn’t have to be.

I know how much he needed this and how much he enjoyed it. Just as much as I did.

I don’t think I’ve ever felt closer to anyone else in my life.

A small flicker of a thought reminds me that he doesn’t even know my real name, but we’ve pressed pause on the mess.

We’ve pressed pause.

So I let the thought slip out of my mind.

The next twoweeks are good.

Really good.

Probably the best in my life.

I try not to think too deeply about what this means or what might happen after our pause-the-mess period is over.

If I brood on it too much, I won’t be able to enjoy the time I’ve been given. Instead of brooding, I wake up with William every morning, spend my days making jewelry with an occasional appointment or coffee date with Haley, and hang out with William in the evenings, talking, going for walks, eating dinners, and having a lot of sex.

I never knew life could be so good.

It’s another Friday morning when I wake up as soon as William rolls away from me and sits up. I usually awaken when he does. At first, because I was so anxious, I had to be on guard against anything that might happen and now because I’ve become attuned to his presence. Usually I give him a mumbled greeting and go back to sleep, but today is different.

I’m fully awake in about ten seconds. I open my eyes and lift my head. “Hey.”
