Jaynie

Flynn feels good, really good, and I don’t mean his new shorter hair—though that feels great, too.

Draped as I am, basically all over him, I can easily feel all of him. I have to admit it thrills me to no end to know he wants me so damn much. That’s why it’s with much regret that I lift my body off his and lie next to him instead. It’s the smart thing to do, to not push myself. For as much as I like feeling Flynn, I do feel apprehensive.

“Is this better?” I ask.

He shifts so he can roll to his side and face me. “I can’t say this is better, necessarily.”

“Flynn!” I can’t help but smile, despite my pretend chastisement.

He touches my face lovingly, and I ask, “Are you going to stay with me? Do you think you can sleep up here?” He raises a brow, and I clarify, “I mean with us all smooshed together like this. Do you think we’ll get too warm?”

I mean a little more than that and he knows it. Still, he assures me, “I’m good if you are.”

I nestle into him. “I’m better than good, Flynn. I like having you so close to me. I feel safe for maybe the first time in my life.”

He tugs me in closer and whispers a contented, “Jaynie.”

From that point on, whenever Flynn stays in our room, he sleeps in my bed with me. No more hard and uncomfortable floor for him, no more tossing and turning for me.

Mandy raises a brow the next night as she watches Flynn nonchalantly climb into bed with me. “What?” I say.

“Nothing,” she replies. And then I hear her murmuring to herself, “Guess it was bound to happen.”

She doesn’t sound mad, and I know then Mandy is happy I’ve reached this pivotal point. A guy in bed with me? Who would have thought such a crazy thing would ever be possible?

The twins aren’t fazed one bit by Flynn sleeping with me. They know we care for each other, and it’s not like we’re messing around in front of them or anything. Besides holding me close to him, the only indication Flynn is more than a friend is when he kisses me good-night.

So, yeah, we maintain restraint at night, but let me tell you, the mornings are a whole different story. The second Mandy leaves the room with the twins, following the alarm clock that wakes us all, Flynn and I are all over each other. Soft kissing turns to full-on making out in no time at all. From there, we begin to engage in cautious exploration, in the form of wandering hands and tentative mouths.

And a funny thing happens as time progresses. As I give more and more of my heart to Flynn, his touch triggers nothing but feelings of love and acceptance. What we build together becomes strong enough to blot out the monster—before, during, and after. Still, I know recovery isn’t a straight line. I expect to have setbacks, especially as we move our physical relationship forward.
