While Ben hung their jackets on a coat tree by the front door, Rebecca hurried to the kitchen. Minutes later she returned with two Champagne flutes.

Ben gave her a slow, appraising smile. “Champagne?”

“I’ve been saving this for a special occasion. I think this qualifies.”

“Oh, yeah. This qualifies.” He touched his glass to hers. “What will we drink to?”

“To…” Her cheeks were flushed as she paused before saying, “Dreams coming true.”

They sipped.

She looked over. “You’re doing it again.”

“Doing what?”

“Just staring at me.”

“I can’t help it. Becca, every time I look at you, you take my breath away.”

She dimpled. Uncomfortable beneath his steady look, she turned. “Is there anything you’d like?”

“You know what I want.” He set aside the half-filled glass and put a hand on her arm. Just a touch, but it was enough to have her bobbling her glass and spilling the liquid over the rim.

“Oh, dear.”

“No harm.” He set her glass aside before taking a crisp handkerchief from his pocket and wiping her hand dry.

Without a word he led her toward the bedroom. Standing beside the bed, he reached for the buttons of her shirt. His voice was low. Solemn. “I’ve been thinking about this all day.”

He unbuttoned her blouse and slid it from her shoulders before reaching behind her to unfasten her lace bra. He unsnapped her jeans and slid them down over her hips before easing her to the edge of the bed. He knelt to remove her shoes, and then her jeans.

He ran a hand along her calf to her thigh, then higher, until she gave a gasp of surprise.

“Ben…”

“Shh. Indulge me my fantasies. Let me pleasure you, Becca.”

His touch was so gentle, all she could do was sigh as, with lips and tongue and fingertips, he took her high, then higher still, until all she could do was hold on as he took her up and over, until her entire body seemed to shatter into splinters of fire.

When she thought there was nothing more she could possibly feel, he shed his clothes and joined her on the bed. Holding her as tenderly as a fragile flower, he entered her.

Her eyes went wide as even more pleasure shot through her.

“Oh, Ben.” She wrapped herself around him, moving with him, loving the feel of him, flesh to flesh, his heartbeat as out of control as hers.

Suddenly, everything changed. One minute their movements were slow and measured. The next they felt a wildfire raging through their overheated systems, electrifying them as they raced into the heart of the blaze. By the time they’d come out the other side, their bodies were slick with sheen.

They lay, breathing labored, heartbeats thundering.

And as their world slowly settled, they clung together, feeling like the only survivors left in the universe.
