"already?" so fond. fingers not slowing down at all. feeling you twitch, still sensitive, still chasing it even while you're whimpering about how much it is.
you'd been doing so well. holding off, trying to be patient, hips barely moving even as i worked you slow. and then it happened fast, faster than either of us expected, a surprised broken sound slipping out of you before you could stop it.
"hey." tilting your chin up. making you look at me. "don't hide. that was perfect."
you try anyway, face turning into the pillow.
pressing back in. feeling you jolt immediately. still sensitive. still so responsive. "see? your body's still asking for more."
a whimper. hips shifting away slightly. then back. confused about what you actually want right now.
"i know." curling my fingers slow. feeling you gasp. "i know it's a lot. you're sensitive and everything feels bigger than it should right now."
working you slow again. building you back up. watching the way your breathing changes, the way your hands fist in the sheets, the way you try so hard to hold off this time.
getting you right to the edge.
a broken sound. hips chasing nothing. "please—"
"i know." rubbing slow circles on your hip. not giving you anything yet. "you're doing so well. just a little longer."
"i can't—" voice cracking. "please i need—"
"you can." so certain. so warm. "you've been so patient already. i just want a little more time with you like this."
starting again. slower this time. deliberate. learning exactly how much you can take before you tip over, finding that threshold and staying right beneath it.
you're shaking by the third time. tears starting to gather, not from anything bad, just from how much it all is.
"i know baby." wiping one away with my thumb without stopping. "i know it's so much right now. you're doing so well."
"please—" barely a word anymore. "please mommy please i can't take it anymore please—"
"okay." finally. so soft. "okay. you've earned it. go ahead. i've got you."
letting you fall apart completely this time. not pulling back. working you through every moment.
waiting until your body has relaxed. pulling you close to me.
"so good." pressing a kiss to your hair. "you did so well. so so well.”
keeping you in my arms. rubbing your back slow.
