Sixteen

Megan’s eyes fluttered open. She was tucked tightly into Ben’s side, one arm tossed around his waist, and his was around her shoulder. The fantastic sex had left her content and exhausted, and after the stress of the past few days, she wasn’t surprised she’d fallen asleep. Ben’s steady breathing told her he’d probably dropped off too. Uncertain of what would happen when he woke up, she cherished the quiet moment, memorizing every detail of what they had shared, how his body felt under her hands, and the look in his eyes when she told her she’d always been special to him. Had she ever felt so warm and safe? So thoroughly satisfied?

When they used to be intimate, sometimes he’d withdraw afterward. At first, she’d thought that he didn’t enjoy himself, that she’d done something wrong, but later when he’d told her bits and pieces of his upbringing, she had understood that he was fighting his own insecurities. The demons from his past. She’d done her best to make him feel loved and appreciated, but it hadn’t been enough. If she couldn’t convince him to trust her back then, would this time would be any different?

It might, she realized. Ben had done a lot of growing up in the past few years. Maybe his time with the SEALS had solidified the fact that there were people who would have your back no matter what the circumstance was. If he could accept that his teammates were behind him one hundred percent, maybe he could let someone else into his life too and actually expect them to stick. Maybe he could see that he deserved someone who would be there to greet him when he returned from missions, who he could grow a family with, and plan for a bright future.

Maybe…

“Hey, sweetheart. What’s going on in that beautiful mind of yours?” Ben stroked her hair, and she leaned into his touch. She’d never get enough of him, and tomorrow when they separated it was going to hurt like hell.

“Reminiscing a bit. Thinking about how loose and wonderful you made me feel. So much so that I dozed off.” She traced a small scar over his hip, then smoothed her hand over his chest before tucking it under her chin. The rise and fall of his chest rocked her gently as he drew in a breath.

“Keep touching me like that, and I’ll be ready again in no time,” he ground out. When she glanced down, she could already see him hardening just from her slight touch. His words gave her hope, even though they were only referencing the physical. If he wanted to be inside her again, that meant he hadn’t blocked her out completely. Maybe it was wrong of her to expect him to throw up his walls after they’d been intimate. He was a man now, not a confused college senior.

She glanced at the bedside clock, and her eyes widened. It had only been half an hour since they’d made love and fallen asleep.
