Chapter 36
Lexie
Holy cow, that was amazing. This experience with Gabriel was nothing like that night with what’s his name. It was unbelievable. I still feel my body quaking and vibrating after that. He’s still inside me; I’ve moved my body forward resting on my forearms not sure what to do next. He hasn’t said anything except for the grunts and moans from before. Should I speak first?
“Wow, Lexie. That was amazing.”
Thank goodness he spoke first. “It was.” I’m still waiting for him to remove his, uh, himself from me, but instead of doing that, he leans forward and kisses me right in the middle of my back. “Are you okay?”
“Yes. It was fine.”
He freezes. His mouth still pressed against my back. “Fine?”
I can’t help it. I start to giggle. “See? It sucks when someone says that. No, Gabriel, it was amazing.”
“Phew, you had me scared there for a minute. I thought it was fucking mind-blowing.”
“It was.” Still, inside me, I lean forward a little bit. “Uh, I need to, um…”
“Not yet. Give me just a minute. You’re still pulsing around me, and I love it.”
Oh. I nod and rest my face in my hands on the bed. When he does remove himself, he slides off the bed and out of my room. While I wait to see what he does next, I lie down and pull my comforter over me. Will he stay? Will he go? As the toilet flushes then the water in the sink runs, I bite my nails.
Moments later, Gabriel walks back into the room stark naked. He slides into my bed, beneath my covers with me and pulls me to him. “Let’s get some sleep. Oh, by the way, Cammy called me after I dropped you off. She’s set up an interview with us in the morning over breakfast.”
“For us? Both of us?”
“Yeah. Chicago Magazine. Breakfast interview at the Waldorf Astoria’s Margeaux Brasserie at eight. We’ll have to stop by my place so I can change on the way.”
“Me?They want to interview me too?”
“I guess you made a splash tonight.”
“Seriously?”
He kisses my forehead and wraps an arm around me, “Yes, seriously. Now, go to sleep. It’s late.”
I roll into him and rest my head on his chest. It’s so comfortable I fall asleep immediately.
