“Hey, you're the one who collapsed on top of me,” Gabriel responded, rubbing his thumbs against Reid’s sides, committing the feel of his skin to memory.
If he never got the chance to do this again, he wanted to be able to relive it as vividly as possible.
“I should’ve waited to shower untilafterthis,” Reid said, finally rolling off Gabriel and standing beside him.
Gabriel wasn’t inclined to follow, his muscles reminding him that he wasn’t entirely back to full strength yet as he lay on the couch, still catching his breath.
“I’m supposed to say I’ll join you, I think, but I can’t move,” Gabriel admitted.
Reid chuckled. “Take a nap. Hot as shared showers are, I’ll let you off the hook this time. I’ll grab us a towel.”
“Thank you,” Gabriel said, letting his eyes fall closed.
He could get used to this.
