Jamie woke to the sound of gulls crying out their morning song. Her eyes flew open and attempted to focus. The room was dim, the light streaks of early dawn visible in the still-night sky.
She flung a slender arm carelessly and was surprised when all she felt was emptiness. Jamie sat upright, clutching the sea-blue sheet to her body. Was it all just a dream, she wondered. A slight pang vibrated through her heart at the thought. Her eyes shut tightly, as if to keep the idea out her head. Please let him be here, she pleaded. Don't leave me Nate. Please don't leave me.
When a warm body slid in next to hers, she nearly jumped. "Don't worry darlin'. I'm not goin' anywhere." He kissed her on the shoulder before bringing back to rest in the crook of his arm as he sat against the headboard.
"What happened?" she asked.
Nate chuckled lightly. "I just had to use the bathroom, is all." His fingers twirled idly in her dark hair.
Jamie could feel her heartbeat slowly returning to normal. "Oh."
He tilted her face up to his. "I'd never leave you like that, Jamie. That's your job, remember?"
She winced involuntarily.
"Too soon?" he said.
"A little" she replied while trying to attempt a smile.
"Will an 'I love you' fix it?"
Her shoulders moved in a nonchalant shrug. "I suppose so."
Cupping her face in his tanned hands, he kissed her deeply. A little sigh escaped, signaling the small thrill that rang throughout his body every time he was blessed with the touch of her full lips to his. He could definitely get used to it.
"I love you, Jamie."
"I love you, Nate." She kissed his cheeks before tracing her tongue lightly over his stubble-lined jaw. "So very much."
He let out a low groan. "Darlin'. I need to feel you again."
Jamie moved to straddle him. Their lips connected once more as she guided his hard cock into her warm pussy. She let out a small whimper when he sat her down firmly, sliding in all the way.
"Fuck" he cursed, biting down on his bottom lip to keep from screaming out. She began to rock back and forth on his cock, squeezing him tightly inside her. His hands grasped at her hips, guiding them in a circular motion.
Jamie covered her mouth to suppress a moan. Her back arched when her thumb grazed over a dark nipple. Nate brought her closer, his mouth desperate for hers.
"You okay baby?" he breathed. His hips thrust into her powerfully. Jamie moaned and wrapped her arms around his neck.
"Yeah," she said. "You just feel so good, honey."
Nate smiled. It was the first time she had called him something like that. It was either Harlow or Nate. To hear something like that roll off her tongue made him feel incredibly warm inside. His fingers ran across the smooth, dark expanse of her back as he cradled her slender body to his.
She rode him hard, her eyes closed as her back arched with every stroke. Nate reveled in the way her body seemed to fit his. The curve of her body met perfectly with the muscle of his.
His fingers wound their way into her hair as he urged her on. Her whimpers turned into loud moans and he silenced them with his mouth. "Quiet, darlin'" he said softly. "You don't want to wake everyone else up, do you?"
Jamie buried her face into his neck as her hips rocked faster. "Shit," she cursed. She came hard, squeezing Nate's cock inside her almost painfully. With a low growl he joined her, his essence shooting deep inside her.
Nate slid down, still cradling her to his chest. Jamie chuckled softly. "You think they heard us?"
"Let's hope not." His breath caught in his throat as her finger lightly traced his flat nipple.
"You know what? I really couldn't care less." She smiled up at him. "I don't think I've ever felt this happy."
He kissed the top of her hair, inhaling the scent of her shampoo mixed with the sea air. "I know how you feel, darlin'. Like my heart's about to burst."
"Did you know I was going to be here?" " No," he replied. "But I was kind of hopin' you were."
"Really?"
"Yeah. It's crazy. I was still so mad at you, but it's like my heart was practically leapin' out of my chest when I saw you on the beach. You were lookin' so fine too."
Jamie smiled. "You don't look too bad yourself. All that southern sunshine does a body good."
Nate's eyes crinkled in a smile. Jamie noticed they were back to that loving sky blue color and all at once she realized how much she missed him. "It was more than sunshine, darlin'. I was spendin' so much time at the gym they might as well had donated a wing in my name. It was like workin' out was the only thing that helped get my mind off you."
She sighed, a low and heavy sound. "I know how you feel. My outlet was art."
"What kind of art?"
"Painting and sculpting, but sometimes it was just idle sketches." She sighed once more, only this time it was a happy one, as his fingers twirled through her hair once more. A small smile crept on her lips. He must like her hair that way.
"I didn't know you were an artist."
"Not a major one. I just do it as a stress reliever. My mom was the real artist."
This was the first time he had ever heard her mention her family. "Your mother?"
She nodded. "My mother. I do have a family, you know."
"Smartass. I know, it's just you never mentioned her before."
"Well, you and I weren't exactly close back in the day. It just seemed wrong to bring up my mother during sex."
He nodded. "Good point. So, does your mother still do art?"
Jamie was quiet for a moment. "Can we not talk about this right now?"
His fingers paused in her hair. He was sure she was trying to shut down again, but he didn't want to force it. "Sure, darlin'. Let's get some sleep, alright?"
