All I knew was that I never wanted to stop feeling like this.
“That’s it, my little firefly,” he growled as he slurped down my arousal, “give me my breakfast.”
Electricity roared through my body and blood pounded through my ears. All I knew was him. All I felt was him. And when his tongue sent me soaring over the edge for yet another orgasm, I heard him drinking me down. Gush after gush pumped out of me, drenching his face while I rode him off into the sunset.
Sunrise.
Sun…something.
Until the world spun around me at a million miles an hour on its own axis.
“Oh, Gee,” I whispered desperately.
I collapsed.
“Whoooa, whoa, whoa, whoa,” he said as he finagled my legs off his shoulders and caught me in his arms just as he stood. “I gotcha. I gotcha. You’re good.”
My body shivered with the aftershocks of the orgasms he gave me. I wanted to say something. Anything. Thank him. Praise him. I wanted to tell him to give me a minute and I’d go right back down on him. I wanted to taste him. I wanted to feel him come apart like that. I wanted more of his growls.
More of his sounds.
More of his… everything.
“Ghost,” I whimpered out in a hoarse voice.
Fuck, how loud was I?
“Sssshhh,” he cooed softly as he carried my dripping wet body out of the bathroom. “Let’s just focus on getting you dried off.”
He perched me on the edge of his bed long enough to dry me off from head to toe. He took his time, squeezing out my hair. Running the towel over my back. Getting into all of the nooks and crannies that my body had, just to make sure I was dried off and comfortable.
He tucked me back in without bothering to offer clothes.
I didn’t care, though.
I heard clothes shuffling around and peeked over to see him getting changed. It felt wrong to watch him, so I averted my eyes. But when I heard him heading toward the bedroom door instead of back to me, I whimpered out softly.
“You can’t lay down with me?”
I hated how pathetic my voice sounded.
“There’s a meeting soon,” he said as I heard his door open, “I have to attend it.”
“Actually,” Ranger said as he came soaring by the room, “you’re exempt from this church meeting. Cap wants you to take care of her. I’ll fill you in once we’re done.”
For a while, the only thing that was heard were Ranger’s cadenced footfalls as he gravitated away from us. He walked with a slight limp. Or maybe a slight swagger? I wasn’t sure which one it was. But when I heard the door click closed, I whimpered as I looked over, expecting to see an empty room.
Instead, however, I found Ghost already making his way back toward me.
“Well in that case,” he said as he crawled into bed and hauled his arm around me.
I giggled as he pulled me close, so I wiggled back against him a bit. “Hi.”
“Hey.”
His breath tickled the shell of my ear. “Thanks for staying.”
“I wouldn’t want to be anywhere else, unless it was expected of me. I hope you know that, firefly.”
