“You’re really saying you can sleep a night without me?” I pout.
She makes a face. “Well, I’m not saying it soundsideal, but we both need our rest and it’s a tradition…”
“Of all times for you to get traditional...”
“I know.” She grins, her hands winding around my neck. “Just put up with me, and tomorrow and the rest of our lives, we will sleep in the same bed as much as we're able to. Think of this as a night before the big game where you have to go get your rest so you're all prepared to win.”
“I just want to touch down with you right now. I want to bring in our wedding day the right way.”
She laughs. “You are so ridiculous.”
“And you love me for it.”
“Yeah, I do.” She squirms when I nuzzle into her neck.
“Okay, how about I just make it real quick?”
“How quick are we talking?”
“Long enough to make you come twice instead of five times.”
“I guess that would be okay,” she says, pulling me inside the door.
I start by closing it behind her and getting on my knees.When she's yanking my hair and biting her fist to keep from crying out, I let her ride her orgasm out before picking her up and tossing her onto the bed.
“Is this fast enough for you?” I tease.
“Well, you haven't made me come twice yet, so we'll see.”
“Oh,you…” I tickle her stomach and she cackles and then covers her face with the pillow.
She peeks out at me. “Get after it, mister.”
“Yes, ma'am.”
I bury myself inside her with one long stroke and she trembles around me.
“Rhodes,” she whispers. “How does it always feel sounbelievablygood?”
“I don't know, Elle. I think you and I were made to do this.”
“Think of all that time we wasted,” she says.
“We're not wasting time anymore,” I tell her.
And then I make her come again.
I wakeup next to Penn on my wedding day. It was either crash Penn’s bed or Bowie’s, and Bowie was too sprawled out to make that work. Penn glances up groggily when I get out of bed.
“Was it good for you?” he croaks.
I laugh. Dude’s got jokes even half asleep.
“I’ve had better,” I say. “Muchbetter.”
“Ouch.”
I actually slept and feel pretty damn great.
