CHAPTER 13:

NATHANIAL

Laying on my living room floor, I struggled to find sleep. Not because of where I was—I normally could sleep just about anywhere—but because of everything else. I’d come downstairs, put away the sushi leftovers, folded the clothes that had been discarded all across my kitchen floor, and then tried to settle down on the blankets in the living room. I didn’t even bother getting dressed because I wasn’t ready to admit that my night with Ellie was over.

Even though I knew it was.

I’d meant what I’d said. When I was with Kelly, I was trying too hard to be the perfect boyfriend, so focused onher happiness that I hardly even noticed how tiring it all was. And at the end of the day, she’d cheated on me anyway. Being with Ellie was freeing. She was open and honest, fun and easy-going, all in a way that made it impossible not to be anything but genuine around her. And the way those qualities had translated during sex…well, it made for the deepest intimacy I’d ever experienced. I’d never been a spiritual guy, but being with her was pretty damn close to heaven. Like bring me fucking knees close to heaven.

Images of her magnificent body and the pleasure that had flashed across her face when I brought her to her orgasm—those images would not stop floating across my mind, haunting me, teasing me. I wondered if it was all for nothing. Maybe we were doomed from the very start—nothing more than a casual fling that was never meant to go past a quickie in an airplane bathroom.

Groaning, I flipped onto my back and stared at the clear, inky black night outside.The wind had picked up speed and the noise was distracting, but I was too lazy to get up to close the windows. I contemplated going to Ellie. Actually, it was taking a good deal of strengthnot to go to her, but I had my pride and I’d already given her my terms. If she wanted to pursue this further then she would have to come to me. I didn’t know Ellie very well, but I would bet money on her being the proud and stubborn type, exactly like myself.

So the next thing that happened couldn’t have shocked me more.

Ellie pulled back the blanket that covered my body, startling me with her sudden presence, and moved to straddle my hips.Holy shit! My chest expanded and my heart went soft. It was a giant gesture. She’d put everything aside, her fears and my stubbornness, and she’d come to me.

I sat up, catching her face in my hands, and I kissed her. I was so surprised and thrilled that a laugh left my throat, which had to be the worst reaction for the moment, but I was too overwhelmed and amazed by Ellie to care.

“I lasted a whole ten minutes without you,” she whispered against my mouth, her voice a little gravelly, possibly with emotion.

“Those ten minutes were agony,” I admitted, brushing her hair from face and smiling at her.
