I walked straight to him and he moved, opening his arms and his body to mine.

His arms wrapped around my waist, and his hands buried into my hair.

I pressed my lips to his naked chest, feeling the puckered scars underneath my lips, and inhaled

deeply.

“I think,” I said as I smelled the unique smell that was him. “That you fooled me because you

didn’t know your usual brands,” I said. “You used to only use the one type of deodorant, and the one type of body wash.” I snickered. “If I’d have smelled that? I’d have known it was you.”

He tightened his arms around me. “You’ll have to go buy me all my usual shit so I can smell right

from now on.”

I snickered, laughing into his chest.

“I’ll be sure to do that,” I said. “But, saying that, had I actually been this close, and smelled the unique scent that’s just you? I’d have known, too.”

He growled, making my face vibrate against his chest.

It made other things vibrate, too.

But I didn’t think he was ready to know that yet.

Maybe tomorrow…

Keep it up and you’ll be a strange smell in the attic.

-Luca’s secret thoughts

Luca

When I woke up that next morning, Frankie was in my arms.

Her head was on my chest, and she was breathing softly, her mouth slightly open.

Her face was pillowed against my scarred chest, and for the first time in months, I woke up with a

sense of peace.

I quietly crawled out of the bed, being careful not to wake my sleeping bed hog—because she was

that. Each time I moved the entire night, she would inch closer and closer to me.

Eventually, I’d ended up right on the edge of the bed with her plastered to my side.

At first, I’d tried to get her to stay on her side.

Then I realized how dumb that was because not only did I not want her to stay on her side, I didn’t want her to keep her hands to herself, either.

In fact, I wanted her to touch me more.

I wanted her hands on my face as she pressed her lips to mine.

I wanted her thighs hugging my hips as she straddled me.
