“good girl,” mack murmurs again as josie practically comes on command. and fuck it’s the hottest thing he’s ever seen. no matter how many times he’s already thought that tonight, nothing can compare to the sight of her coming undone while he’s inside her, watching her tremble as he can feel her tighten around his cock. he’s never had anything so good. so sweet. so perfect. and now that he has josie, mack is never letting her go; he’s sure no one could compare to the love he feels for her. the second she starts to come down, he’s wondering how he could hold off long enough to do it again, desperate to show her how special she is, how all he wants to do is bring her to the peak of pleasure over and over until he’s shown even a fraction of the love he has for her. but then she speaks, and mack knows he isn’t going to last another minute. electricity surges down his spine at her words. no one has ever said anything like that to him, no one has ever made him feel so desired, so wanted. he wouldn’t be able to articulate how it makes him feel even if he wasn’t seconds away from release, so he kisses her. he takes a shuddering breath against her lips as lights dance behind his eyelids, shining brighter and brighter until a warmth envelopes him, groaning her name as he comes. burying his face in the crook of her neck, he kisses the sensitive skin there as he comes down from his high, breathing ragged and every nerve ending in his body on fire. after settling slightly, he pulls out of her, but doesn’t move any further away. lifting his head, mack presses his forehead against hers, quiet as he gazes at her, overwhelmed by the wave of affection that crashes over him. “you have the most beautiful eyes i’ve ever seen,” he says before pressing a gentle kiss to her lips. finally, he rolls off of her, collapsing on the bed next to her. but he immediately misses her touch. “c’mere, you.” mack says as he reaches for her, wrapping an arm around her shoulders and pulling her close to rest her head against his chest. his fingers run over her bare skin as a cheeky smile spreads across his features. “ye’ken, i would’ve told you how i felt a long time ago, if i would’a known that’s how you were gonna react.”
josie’s certain, beyond doubt, that it wouldn’t take much to make her come again, not when she’s on the cusp of sensory overload as it was and he continued to murmur sweet praises. and yet, that was the thing, no one had ever shown her such attention before, wanted to make her feel as loved and desired before, but tonight mack had done so in a matter of hours, as if they’d been doing this for years. and josie has no intention on letting him slip through her fingers again, not when they’ve both made it abundantly clear just how much they love each other. mack watches her as if committing the sight of her, breathing heavily and wild with adoration, to memory, and the sight of him just before release, is one she wished to bottle, herself. but she wants to watch him come entirely undone, wants him to have even a fraction of pleasure he’s given her tonight. there will be no shortage of making him feel just as loved and as cared for as he has made her, because her love for him has burst like a dam, spilling into the spaces between the and soothing the ache that had been felt in each other’s absence. josie swallows his ragged breaths with eager kisses, feeling him throb and twitch inside her, her hips meeting each thrust of his own with lingering enthusiasm, and rides out his high as fingers twist themselves into his hair, offering a groan of her own as she shudders around him. she can no longer tell if it’s a second orgasm or aftershock of the first, neither of which too unlikely, but she knows that she wants to hear him say her name like that over and over again. there’s a comforting warmth that settles around them, fingers trailing to brush along his cheek as a small, lazy smile settles on her lips. ❝ i don’t know that you actually got to see a great deal of them just now, ❞ josie teased softly, ❝ but i do know that yours are just as beautiful. especially when you smile. ❞ and as soon as the contact is gone, her body left thrumming in its absence, she’s already itching to shift closer again as his arm wraps around her. content to listen to the steady, if not quickened beat of his heart, she’s certain it’s more than enough to help her drift off to sleep. but her fingers trace similar patterns to his own along his chest. legs intertwining as she manages a scoff of a laugh, josie smacks his chest playfully. ❝ shut yer geggy, yer insufferable. ❞ but even still, her smile is wide. cheeky bastard. and she loved him for it all the same, shifting as she placed a gentle kiss to his chest to ease to previous sting. ❝ what ? in all the years you’ve known me, you mean to tell me i’ve exceeded your expectations ? perhaps you should’a said something sooner. ❞
