January

“I’ve thought about you every single day since I met you,” Tavish said as he knelt on the floor in front of her.

She propped herself up on her elbows, and then sat up. They both wanted the same thing, but he was waiting for her. Not just to say it, but to make utterly sure that she was okay with this. He didn’t tear her clothes off and immediately ravish her as soon as she’d given her consent.

She was overheated, wearing too many layers, and eager as heck to get her clothes off. She stripped her sweater away, then her tank top. It took her no more than a few seconds to wriggle out of her jeans. She wasn’t a lace and push up kind of girl, and she’d worn a soft, comfy white sports bra and a set of matching boxer-type panties. None of it was sexy or enticing.

Tavish’s lips parted and he stared at her in awe.

“I’ve thought about you just about every minute of every single day since we met.” There was no sexy way to take off a sports bra that didn’t have a clasp in the back, but this wasn’t one of those breath hindering contraptions. It came off pretty easily, if not sexily.

She watched Tavish’s face. Watched the man she knew to be strong and steady and able to handle just about anything get more flustered. He flushed slightly and his lips parted even further. He was pretty much gaping at her, struggling to keep his eyes on her face.

The boxers were looser fitting too, and she shucked them easily.

Without saying anything, she flopped back onto the bed and waited, her breath hitched so tight in her lungs, exhaling felt impossible. She’d been bold. She’d taken the lead. But now what?

She was lying naked, and even at twenty, she hadn’t been a ten or anything. Twenty wasn’t forty, though, and she knew there were places on her body that didn’t look so pretty anymore. Her breasts weren’t as pert, her hips were a little curvier than they ever had been, her butt was fuller than she’d like.

Tavish stood up, and when she opened her eyes, she found him looking down at her. With even more awe than before.

“Dear god, you’re so beautiful I can barely even breathe.”

Her first instinct was to scoff, but she fought against it with everything she had, just like she fought to cover her breasts or the parts of her that she thought of as less than perfect.

Tavish took her hand and helped her sit up. He pulled her straight into his arms and kissed her soundly. Kissed the doubt right out of her. She drowned in the sensation. She loved the way he cradled her in his arms. The fit of their bodies. The kiss wasn’t as red hot as it had been before. It was slower, but burned brighter because they were taking their time. She thought about every detail of it this time. About how right
