"Xander," I moan his name before he kisses me.

This man kisses me like I'm his life's purpose and he's thirsting for more knowledge. I've never felt the soul-crushing, awe-inspiring emotions he causes to crash through me.

I was so scared I'd never be able to handle Xander touching me again, but I'm stronger than that. I have Xander. Every kiss, every touch, gives me more power, more determination, more love.

Dell never touched me like this. No one has ever made me feel so cared for that I cry. Tears fall down my cheeks as his lips press against mine, taking even more of me.

Every second feels like an eternity in the best way and I can't get enough.

"Hey, what's wrong?"Xander asks frantically as he pushes my tears away, worry clear in his eyes.

"I…" I trail off as my lip trembles, and I touch his face.

"Talk to me," he demands as he leans into my palm.

"I didn't expect it to feel like that," I admit, tears falling faster and faster.

His eyes widen with realization before he sighs. "Darling…no one has ever made love to you before?"

"No."

Is that what he did? Did he make love to me? Is it supposed to make me feel like my whole world could implode and I would be okay with it?

Maybe that's just Xander.

I kiss him as he takes me back in his arms, his fingers trailing along my limbs like an experienced lover.

I wish we could stay like this forever and no one will ever invade this bubble, but that would be impossible.

Suddenly, there's a loud bang on the front door. Both of us sit up quickly in shock. The banging persists like a Siberian storm emerging from the night.

"Laura! You better not be asleep!"

I relax and let out an awkward laugh, recognizing the voice.

"Your sister, I presume?" Xander teases as he helps me out of bed, my limbs still adjusting to the post-orgasm euphoria he put me in.

"You would be correct in your assumption, Sunshine." We get dressed and I hurry to the front door, knowing my sister is probably waking the neighbors.

"I'm coming!" I yell through the door as I undo the lock.

"That's what she said!"

I roll my eyes at her antics before opening the door. My sister with her rose gold hair stands before me with her arms out as if to sayhere I am. I laugh and she grins like the Cheshire cat before hugging me.

"Goddamn. It's been a long night. I need a doobie, an orgasm, and a drink, not necessarily in that order," she says as she drops her purse by the door.

My sister, in true Gillian style, is wearing a red crop top that her tits are nearly falling out of, a leather skirt that almost shows her underwear, and a pair of stripper heels like she's been at a club all night.

Her stomach is covered in tattoos, her dragon piece the main focus of the artwork, bringing attention to her belly button piercing.

"I think we can make that happen." I laugh at her openness that I used to find annoying, but it's strange how things change when you miss someone.

"Yes! You are a lifesaver." Her speech seems to slow down as she looks past me, and my instincts tell me she must've noticed Xander.

"What have you been doing anyway? I thought Donatello didn't want you to work." Which I told her was toxic as hell when she first told me about her boyfriend.
