The man knew how to do afterglow, in his own way. Some people liked to cuddle.
This Marine liked to take a dip.
Well, sign Poe up. This time, he wasn’t scared in the least. He knew he was safe, and that Gamble had it under control.
Unfortunately though, all good things had to come to an end.
They were both running out of breath, and Gamble had to be cognizant that Poe couldn’t hold his for as long as he could.
So, slowly, they floated up.
Poe held on, and he was in the man’s arms as Gamble kicked them to the surface.
When they broke water, Gamble treaded, holding Poe in the circle of his arms.
That was when they broke that kiss.
“Jesus,” Poe whispered.
“You wanted an adventure,” Gamble said. “I hope that was a good one.”
He wanted to weep.
This was something he’d never forget. Who got to skinny dip in a cave grotto after really amazing sex?
God.
Poe was so damn happy that he didn’t have words to express it.
This moment…
It was better than anything he’d ever experienced in his whole life.
Staring into Gamble’s eyes, he was honest.
“I’ve never done that,” he admitted. “That made me want to be in the water more often,” he added.
Oh, he understood that.
Because he was starting to get hungry, and had exerted a lot of calories during sex, and would be burning more tonight, Gamble swam him to the side of the grotto to get Poe somewhere safe.
He kept him in the water since the cooler temperature was nice on their heated bodies.
“Stay right here,” he said. “I’m going to get us a snack,” he added. “Be right back.”
This whole thing was insanity, and Poe loved it. The man was something else.
Listening to Gamble, Poe didn’t move, holding onto the rock.
Jesus, this whole adventure was insane. Gamble was amazing, and not only was he thorough during sex, but he was considerate and amazing afterwards.
Who did something like this, and then hunted down food for them?
It was masculine and all kinds of sexy.
Why did Poe, suddenly, want to live in this cave forever with the man?
Damn.
