A little time later I found myself curled up next to Lucius in bed. He had taken off his shoes and his waistcoat and was currently lay back with his ankles crossed, listening to my childhood stories as he played with my hair, after first removing the tie that held it back.

“Wow, look at the time, it’s nearly four in the morning, and I have been talking nonstop,” I said yawning big after it.

“I like listening to you talk.”

“Why, is it a good cure for insomnia?” I joked making him grin down at me where I was tucked under his arm.

“On the contrary, it actually soothes me,” he said like a confession.

“Soothes you?” I pushed for more.

“You are familiar with the concept, Sweetheart,” he commented dryly making me smirk against his chest as it was worth trying.

“Yeah, well, with what you’re doing to my hair, that has the power to put me to sleep even after ten cups of coffee…it feels so good,” I confessed making him kiss my forehead and tell me,

“Then go to sleep, Sweetheart.”

“I guess I’d better get a few hours in. But you don’t have to stay…probably safer if you don’t,” I said in a disappointed tone at the thought of him leaving.

“I told you, I am not going anywhere,” was his stern reply.

“But…”

“But nothing, I gave you my terms in the car and I meant them,” he said now being firm.

“But what if someone catches us?” I asked,

“Does your family make a habit of just barging into your room without knocking?”

“Well, no but…”

“Then I don’t see the problem,” he said, suddenly getting up and walking away from the bed. Which was when I bolted upright and my slightly panicked voice asked him,

“I thought you weren’t leaving?” in a tone and a question that kind of proved how much I wanted him to stay. Something his satisfied grin told me he was pleased about. So, he walked back to me and, placing a hand either side of my hips, leaned in and said,

“I am getting ready for bed, and unless you have any in there for me, then don’t expect me to come out of there wearing pyjamas, my little nerd.” Then he playfully pulled at my top directly over my nipple and at the same time bit my chin to make his point. Then he grinned when I started rubbing my breast and mouthing an exaggerated ‘oww’. To which he mouthed back a silent,

‘Baby’.

After this Lucius walked into my bathroom and out of sight, making me squirm impatiently for him to hurry up and get back so I could see him without his clothes on. However, when he finally did, I missed the sight. Because I must have fallen asleep as I didn’t even stir when he slipped in next to me. Something I knew he had done as when I woke the next morning, not only did I feel as if someone had poured a sandcastle’s worth of sand down my throat, I also felt a hot body next to me.
