The moon shined through the window reflecting on his skin making him look more angelic than he normally did when he slept. Kelsey sighed as she watched him breathe the rise and fall of his chest. His messy blond hair was sprouting out everywhere a few strands surrounded his face. How his lips looked separated partially and how he let out a small puff of air when he exhaled. She reached her hand out and lightly ran her finger across the stubble that was growing on his chin; the ring on her left hand glistened in the moonlight. She smiled at the diamond and what it meant. Her eyes lingered down his chest to his arms lying on his stomach, she examined the tattoos that covered his arms and his chest then her eyes landed on his hands; her weakness. Her eyes traveled down to his waist and the sheet that covered the rest of his body and she smiled as the memories of their love making that had ended only hours before filled her head. She stared at him for the longest time smiling like a fool. That’s what she called herself; a fool. She was a fool in love.
Kelsey had never experienced love until he walked into her life. He was her first everything, first love and only love. She knew she could never love anyone as much as she loved him. It even scared her sometimes when she thought about all the love she had for him. Life with him made perfect sense there was going to be no other in her life. He was truly her best friend. He was her everything. He was her Nick.
Kelsey saw him move a little and his eyes flutter open and adjust to the dark. He smirked at her as she stared at him.
"Hi." He whispered.
"Hi." She breathed as her fingers lazily drew circles on his chest.
"Can’t sleep?"
Kelsey shook her head ‘no’ and sighed.
"What’s wrong?"
"I was just thinking about you."
A playful smile appeared on his face when he asked, "Really, care to share?"
"I was just thinking how lucky I am to have you in my life. You complete me. You and I make sense. There could never be anyone else that makes me feel this way. When I look at you I fall in love with you all over. I seriously don’t know where I’d be if I wasn’t here with you. And frankly I don’t care because I’m here with you. You are truly the most amazing person I’ve ever known and you love me. You want to be with me. It’s so surreal. I’ve never been in love until I met you. I’ve never had anyone that I could count on until I met you." Kelsey paused.
Nick continued to smile at her.
"I’m sorry I could go on and on with every reason why I love you. But I think I revealed enough for tonight." Kelsey said grinning.
"You have the rest of our lives to tell me." Nick said as he leaned forward kissing her tenderly.
Kelsey kissed him back as Nick moved so he was on top of her. He began to kiss her jaw and down to her neck and in between her breasts. Kelsey wrapped her arms around his neck pushing him closer to her.
He made his way back to her lips and began to kiss her and noticed her lips were trembling. "Are you ok? You’re trembling." He asked his eyes searching for an answer.
"I’m fine." She whispered as she kissed him intensely.
Nick nodded keeping eye contact as he entered her. Kelsey closed her eyes as the pleasure washed over her. "Kelsey look at me." Nick whispered as he began to move.
Kelsey opened her eyes and looked into his. Nick smiled at her as he quickened his pace. He leaned down and kissed her roughly causing Kelsey to moan loud into his mouth. Kelsey tightened her arms around his neck and let her fingers run lightly through the hair on his neck and then up and down his back as he moved.
Nick leaned his forehead against hers when he started to move faster. He kissed her; their lips barely touching their breaths were ragged. Kelsey wrapped her legs around Nick’s waist pulling him closer as they both came.
Nick slowed down then stopped lying on top of Kelsey. He leaned his forehead against hers as they tried to catch their breaths as the sun started to come up. Nick moved off top of her and laid on his side scooping her up in his arms.
"I love the look in your eyes when we make love." He whispered then gave her a kiss.
Kelsey smiled as she looked out the window and back at Nick. "Good morning lover."
"Good morning wife." Nick replied with a grin.
Kelsey started to laugh and said, "That sounds so weird."
Nick nodded in agreement then leaned over to kiss her again.
"You’re my best friend." Kelsey whispered against his lips then kissed him intensely.
Nick started to laugh and Kelsey looked at him like he was crazy. She was trying to have a nice moment and he was laughing. What was up with that?
"What?" Kelsey asked getting annoyed.
"I love you." Nick said laughing.
"Why are you laughing?"
"I just realized you were quoting that song you made me dance to."
"Shut up."
"You always did like the romantic cheesy stuff."
Kelsey pushed Nick a little and said, "Seriously shut up."
"I’m just playing." Nick said getting serious all of a sudden.
Kelsey pouted as Nick kissed her.
"It’s true though; everything I said."
Nick nodded and kissed her again.
