I wakeup slowly but keep my eyes closed. I'm so tired, I can't imagine it's a reasonable time for me to be up on my day off. Whiskers brush over my neck and then there are warm lips on my ear. "Did you know," Gus asks conversationally while he plays with my nipples, "that you have twenty-two freckles."

I laugh and then moan when his mouth closes over my peak. "Twenty-two..." I pull in a breath as he sucks on my breast. "You're counting my freckles? We might need to talk about this," I manage before blinking my eyes open to find his dark head bent over my chest. I shudder and arch into his mouth.

Gus' teeth scrape over my nipple and I whimper. "What's so wrong with me being obsessed with your body?" he asks and rather than answer, I tug on his hair to bring his mouth to mine. He obliges me, taking my mouth as though he owns it. Which let's be honest, he really kinda does.

We break apart to breathe and his mouth moves back to my neck. "You are the most beautiful woman I have ever met," he whispers against my skin between open-mouthed kisses. I smile and then moan when his big hand slips between my thighs and makes me forget everything but his touch.

A half hour and a handful of orgasms later, I move to roll off of Gus and he grabs my rump, keeping me tight against him. We both groan as he sinks even deeper inside me. "Ahyes, I think I'll stay a little longer, angel. I'm not ready to let you go yet."

I swallow another whimper and bite my lip, bracing myself with my hands on his powerful shoulders. "You can stay as long as you want," I say on a heavy exhale. He uses his grip on my ass to move me slowly up and down on his cock, building my pleasure steadily as we go.

He smiles at me, sexy and rumpled, not to mention naked beneath me. And through the haze of lust, I marvel at the fact that I'm not a bit self-conscious with him. Even though he's seeing all of me up close and personal. I feel sexy and beautiful. Invincible. After all, there's no part of me he hasn't seen, touched or tasted. And he's still here wanting more.

I've never felt this comfortable with someone before.

Never trusted anyone like this...

It really feels like we belong.

We just fit. Not just in the bedroom, but in all aspects of our life so far.

It's been two weeks since we said the big scary l word that makes most men run. There've been two whole weeks of mushy shenanigans. I truly can't get enough of it or him. On those rare evenings we're apart, I'm talking to Theo about him. I know I must be making her sick, but she's been so supportive and happy for me.

I truly don't deserve her.

Gus rolls us so I'm under him and I moan out his name, moving with him as he rocks into me. He grabs my hands and holds them over my head as he pushes into me harder and deeper. The heat between us burns hotter and in a matter of moments, I'm clenching around him as I fall apart again. He follows me over that cliff, saying my name and biting at my neck. I grasp his hands tight in mine and work to get my breath back. Gus kisses me hard, but still sweet and murmurs, "Fuck," under his breath before he slips out of me and disposes of the condom. Then he collapses on the bed next to me and gathers me close.

"What are your plans for today?" he asks, still breathing heavily.

I sigh happily and snuggle into him. "Me? I have no plans today, I'm free. Why do you ask?"

He smiles and says, "Nothing, just a quiet day with the two of us together before I have to go home and get ready for school tomorrow." He kisses the top of my head and breathes me in. "That sound okay to you?"

I tighten my arms around him. "That sounds divine."

The next day, I'm happily daydreaming about the previous day spent mostly in Gus' arms as I put pies in the oven. They're going to Polly's with her next delivery. Two cherry and three apple. She upped her order. Business is good. It's so nice to be in a place where we're not pinching pennies anymore.

Theo clears her throat and I look up guiltily. "Did you say something?" I ask already feeling bad for being so spaced out.

She sighs at me and then laughs. "It's okay. I was just asking about your day off, but from the look on your face, you don't have to say a word. I can guess that Gus was involved." I stick my tongue out at her and she laughs again. "It's nice seeing you so happy."

I grin, blushing. "It is, isn't it?"

She nods, smiling before bending her head back over the computer screen she's been working on for the whole morning. Her long red hair falls away from her face and I take a closer look at her. She's finally feeling better, thankfully. She still looks a little pale. Well, paler than normal that is. Might be I should be paying better attention to my best friend. We've been talking still, of course, and we see each other every day at work. The texts and calls in our time apart have lessened. I don't want her to feel abandoned. That's not okay.

I'll never forgive myself if she's feeling lonely.

I open my mouth to ask her if she's alright when my cell phone rings. I look down and see it's Milly Sagendorf.

"Oh my goodness!"

"Who is it?" Theo asks, looking up again.

"It's Milly Sagendorf." She smiles wide and claps excitedly.
