Quinn was still coming as Icrested my own peak every short roll of his hips as he spent himself completelydrawing out my orgasm.

By the time he stoppedmoving I was right on the edge of pain, too sensitive to take any more, but tooneedy to tell him to stop.

Quinn collapsed on top of mewith a final soft cry, setting off another wave of lust and another spurt offluid between us, leaving both of our bellies sticky with it.

The room spun around me as Ipanted to catch my breath, oversensitive skin tingling with every movement.Quinn clung to me, his heart beating so hard I could almostfeelitagainst my chest, rabbit-fast and thready.

The heartbeat of a man who’d just come hisbrains out.

I grinned at the thought.

We lay there like that, skinsticking together, blankets pushed off the bed. Neither of us made any attemptto move, too exhausted to care about the mess drying between us.

This was it. This was us,from now on. Clinging to each other, sated and happy, a moment of joy andlaughter in a world that wasn’t always fair.

But with the two of ussticking together, maybe it’d be a little easier.

“I love you,” I said, sinceit was the only thing I could think right now. My entire brain was screamingit, and my heart had joined in too.

Besides, like Miles hadsaid. Quinn needed to hear he was loved.

And he was. I couldn’t think abouthim without thinkingI love youat the same time.

“I’m gonna fall asleep onyou,” Quinn responded after a moment, yawning widely. “Not even sorry. But I’mrunning you a bath later to make up for it.”

“Haven’t got one,” I said. “Butyou can join me in the shower.”

Quinn hummed. “’Kay. Stillsleeping on you.”

I snorted, sliding one handup from where it was still resting on his gloriously pert backside and splayingit over his back. A silent gesture that he could stay, that Iwantedhimto stay.

I’d been accused of being toosoft for my own good before. With Quinn, I thought maybe I was just as soft ashe deserved.

My eyelids drooped as Quinn’s breathingevened out, the thought that we could clean up later turning around in the backof my mind. If Quinn didn’t mind napping covered in come, I could live with it,too.

A knock on the door made usboth jump.

If it was a neighbor comingto complain about the noise, I wasn’t sure I could be held responsible for myactions.

“Only us,” Gray called out. “Iwas gonna use my key but I know you’re in there with your new boyfriend and I’mnot walking in on you.”

“Thanks for shouting thatloud enough for the whole building to hear,” I mumbled. Gray wouldn’t havecared.

I didn’t care, either.The whole world was welcome to know I’d just had fantastic sex with my gorgeousnew boyfriend.

New boyfriend.

I liked the sound of that alot.

“Come in,” I called out,turning my head away from Quinn so I wasn’t shouting in his ear. “I’ll be outin a minute.”

“Someone important?” Quinnasked, getting up reluctantly.

I chuckled. “Very importantto me. That’s Gray, my business partner. One of my best friends. You don’t haveto face him if you’re not up to it. Sounds like Miles is out there, too. I wasmeant to get him your autograph.”

Quinn’s whole face litup.

“I need all the friends Ican get. If they don’t mind meeting me with sex hair and in yesterday’sclothes?”
