The night felt endless without him.
You sat curled up on the bed, phone squeezed in your palm like it was the only thing holding you together. Kylian had left barely a day ago, but the apartment already felt wrong — too quiet, too cold, like it noticed he was gone just as much as you did.
When his name lit up your screen, your heart jumped.
“No, no.. It’s his turn!” he said on the line and you heard someone talking back.
“I just played the reverse card!” He raised his voice, and you smiled. It felt good hearing his voice.
“Naaaah, you have to pay more attention, bro. Tsk.” He laughed. “Wesh wesh (slang for: What the fuck)—You wanna play UNO, you gotta play it right!”
“Whatever man.” He was laughing, pacing the way he always did when he talked to you. “Allô?”
“Hi.” You greeted.
“Hi, love. How are you?”
“I’m good.” You lied.
“Yeah?” he asked mid-laugh. “Missing me?” He teased.
And you…
Something in his happy tone — the one you loved — made the distance hit you like a weight on your chest. You pressed a hand to your lips, trying to keep quiet, but your breath stuttered.
“Y/n?” His voice dropped an octave, soft but worried. “All good?”
You didn’t answer. Your throat closed, the tears finally slipping over.
“.....Y/n?”
You were breaking.
You tried.
You really tried.
But your voice cracked. “…Yeah........”
He stopped immediately. You could hear it — the stillness, the way everything in him froze.
“Yo... Where are you going? It’s your turn.”
A distant voice said through the line.
“Yeah.. Play on.” He said. You heard the ruffle of leather. And you knew he was moving to a quieter, more private place.
“Don’t be a spoilsport!” Another said.
“I’m stepping out.” He exclaimed. “Go on without me.”
His steps seemed rushed. “What is it? Did someone bother you?”
“No.” You mutter.
“What is it, sweetie. Tell me.” He asked in a quiet, calm tone.
You kept quiet for a while.
“Y\N?”
Then he heard it — the smallest, broken sniff.
“…Tssk.” A sharp little click of frustration left him. “No. No, no, no. Don’t do that. Baby…” His voice cracked just a little. “Why are you crying?”
You covered your mouth, embarrassed. “I—I’m sorry. I just… I miss you so much.”
A long breath came through the line — shaky, like he was fighting himself.
“Y/n…” he murmured, and your name sounded like it hurt him to say. “Ma chérie… Don’t do this to me right now.. Please. Please, please. please don’t cry.”
Your heart clenched.
“I know I shouldn’t cry,” you whispered.
“Oh, love” he hissed again, breath trembling. “You think I don’t miss you? You think it’s not killing me that you’re crying and I’m stuck here?”
You could picture him perfectly — jaw clenched, head tilted back, eyes closed like he was trying not to lose it.
“Just, please don’t cry.” he continued softly, “I can’t do anything while I’m here and you’re there.”
His voice thickened. “You… you don’t know how much I want to be home right now. To hold you. To kiss you. To feel you..”
You stayed quiet, listening to his voice.
“Oh, what I would give to feel your skin on my skin right now.” his soft moan escaped his lips, voice breaking. “Do you know what it does to me hearing you like that? I can’t handle it.”
A beat.
Your breath shook.
“I just miss you.”
He exhaled sharply through his teeth. That helpless, frustrated sound he only made when something genuinely hurt him. “I can’t even sleep without you stealing all the covers. I think my body’s confused.”
You laughed wetly.
“Aaah,..” he said warmly. “There it is. My favorite sound.”
You sniffed again. “Just promise you’ll come home as fast as you can.”
“Faster,” he said. “I’ll come home running if I have to.”
“Really?”
“Try me.” He chuckled, then softened. “I love you, Y/n. More than a win, more than anything. So please… no more crying, okay? Just... Two more days, okay?”
And somehow, even from miles away, you felt him closer.
“Okay..” You wiped your hot tears.
The laughter of his friends fading behind him. Your breathing has steadied now—no more trembling, no more sharp hiccups between words. Just the soft, fragile quiet that comes after tears.
“Do you want me to stay on the line till you fall asleep?”
“Aren’t you gonna… play UNO?”
He lets out a slow breath. His voice drops to that tender tone he only ever uses for you.
“UNO can wait,” he said softly, almost like it’s the most obvious thing in the world. “Tonight I just want to hear you breathe easy again… Stay with you until you fall asleep.”
You’re quiet, maybe unsure, maybe feeling guilty. He heard it in the way you shifted, the soft rustle of your blanket.
“I don’t want to keep you,” you whisperd.
He shakes his head, even though you couldn’t see. His voice lowers, sincere, steady.
“You can be selfish with me. I allow it.”
He walks slowly down the hall, finding a quieter corner, sliding down the wall until he’s sitting with his knees bent.
“Listen,” he murmurs, “I’ll stay. I don’t care if it takes five minutes or an hour. I’ll be right here.”
You sniffled once—but it’s a soft sound now, not broken. “Okay,”
He closes his eyes, letting all the noise of the lobby fade away.
“I’m not going anywhere. Just relax, okay? Breathe. I’m right here with you.”
Your breathing slowed again, steadier now, safer. Warm.
You whisperd, sleepier than before: “Kylian…”
“Hm?”
Your breathing has gone soft again, that fragile calm that comes after a storm. He thinks you’re drifting off when your voice suddenly slips through—quiet, a little drowsy, almost childlike.
“...Can you bring me rabitos when you come back?”
For a moment he just blinks, caught off guard. Then a warm, helpless laugh escapes him—low, breathy, the kind that comes from pure affection. He runs a hand on the top of his head, smiling to himself like you’re the most precious thing in the world.
“Sure.” he said softly, as if savoring the word. He chuckled again, quieter this time, the kind of laugh meant only for you. “I’ll bring you rabitos.”
He feels his chest melt at how sleepy you sound.
Another little hum. Softer. Slower.
He lowered his head, speaking into the quiet like it’s something sacred.
“Go to sleep, sweetheart.”
Your breathing settles into that steady, dream-bound rhythm, and he smiled to himself—alone in the hallway, phone pressed to his ear, listening to the girl he loves fall asleep with a candy on her mind and his name on her comfort.
He smiled, leaning his head back against the wall.
And he stayed there, phone against his ear, listening to your breathing slowly melt into the quiet rhythm of someone finally drifting toward sleep.
The airport doors slid open with a whoosh of cold air, and you stood there, hands twisted together, heart pounding so hard it felt like it echoed in your ribs. People streamed past you — families, businessmen, tourists — but you only looked for one face.
Then you saw him.
Kylian stepped out with the team, iPods in his ears, jacket in his hand, backpack slung over one shoulder. He was half-listening to something Jude was saying, tired but still laughing— Until his eyes found you.
Everything on his face changed in an instant.
The exhaustion melted.
The travel-weariness vanished.
And a slow, uncontrollable grin spread across his lips; bright, boyish, immediate. Like seeing you lit something inside him that he’d been missing for days.
His teammates noticed. They always noticed.
Kylian was already walking faster, steps growing quicker, purposeful, until he suddenly stopped mid-stride.
His grin faded into a soft pout.
Because your eyes were already filling with tears.
He lifted one hand in the air, still walking, and shook his head dramatically.
“Non…” he muttered under his breath, lips forming the word again and again as he gestured at you with both hands like he was scolding a toddler. “No tears. No crying. Non...”
But you couldn’t help it. Seeing him — really seeing him — after missing him so painfully made your chest cave in with relief.
He gave up on pretending to be annoyed. He practically jogged the last few steps, weaving past people with a single-minded purpose.
And then he was in front of you.
Before you could say a word, he slid his arms around your waist and pulled you into him — tight, warm, almost desperate. His face buried instantly in your neck, his breath trembling against your skin.
You clung to him, fingers fisting in the back of his navy blue shirt as if letting go wasn’t an option.
He inhaled deeply, slow, reverent. Pressing his nose into your hair.
“God…” he whispered. “Your smell. I missed this.”
You trembled softly in his arms.
He tightened his hold and murmured, voice low and steady against your ear:
“I’m here.”
Another warm breath.
“I’m here.”
His hand slid up your back, soothing.
“I’m home now. It’s all right.”
Your eyes squeezed shut as he cupped the back of your head, pressing his forehead to yours.
“No more crying,” he whispered, brushing your cheek with his thumb, even though he was secretly just as emotional. “You’re going to make me lose it.”
A tiny smile broke through your tears. “Sorry.”
“Hey,” he muttered, but his grin was soft, affectionate, hopelessly in love. “Come here.”
He kissed the corner of your mouth softly. just enough to calm, to ground, to say everything words couldn’t.
Then he rested his forehead against yours once more.
“Let’s go home,” he said quietly.
The car ride home was quiet in the best way.
Full of breaths you’d held for days.
Full of glances, fingers brushing, little sighs of relief whenever your eyes met.
When you pulled into the parking spot, he didn’t move right away. He just sat there, staring at your intertwined hands like they grounded him.
Then he lifted your hand slowly, pressed a soft kiss to your knuckles, and whispered:
“At last.”
You didn’t need to answer. You both felt it.
As soon as the door shut behind you, Kylian dropped his bag with a thud and stepped in close, arms sliding around your waist, body sinking against yours like gravity was pulling him into you.
His forehead brushed your cheek.
His humming came out low, gentle, almost relieved.
You melted into him, fingers slipping into his curls as he pressed kiss after kiss to your jaw, your cheek, your temple — slow, lingering, like he was memorizing your skin all over again.
“Do you know,” he murmured, nudging his nose against your cheek, “how long I’ve been wanting to hold you like this?”
You whispered back, “How long?”
He gave a soft, breathy laugh. “Since the second I left.”
You pulled back just enough to look at him. His eyes were warm, heavy, a little glassy — like he was letting himself feel everything he’d been pushing down.
“I hate being away from you,” he admitted. “I hate not being able to touch you, hate hearing you cry on the phone, hate knowing I can’t fix it right then and there.”
His jaw flexed. “It kills me.”
You slid your hands to his cheeks. “You’re here now.”
He leaned into your palms instantly. “Yeah,” he whispered. “I’m here.”
Then, with his gleaming eyes he only had for you: „..and I’m gonna fix it”
He wrapped his arms tighter around your waist and picked you up just slightly — enough to make you gasp — carrying you toward the couch.
He sank down with you on his lap, holding you close, chest pressed to yours, arms wrapped securely around your back.
Your face tucked into his neck.
His hand slipped under the back of your shirt, just to feel your skin.
He breathed you in like he was starving.
His fingers curled possessively at your waist.
He kissed your shoulder.
Your neck.
Your hair.
Then, softer than anything:
“I really love you, you know?”
You were curled on his lap, legs draped around him, arms wrapped tightly around his shoulders as if you were afraid he might disappear again.
But Kylian just held you there, one hand stroking your lower back, the other resting warm on your thigh — grounding you both.
„I love you, too.” You whispered and gulped. Heat rising up. „Pull me closer.”
He slid one arm around your waist and pulled you in even tighter, your chests pressed, your breath mingling with his.
He leaned back an inch, eyes soft, teasing. “Is this close enough?”
You shook your head immediately.
His lips twitched.
He sat up, his face close to yours. Breaths mingling. He licked his own lips, while looking at yours.
“Now?” he murmured.
You shook your head again.
He huffed a tiny laugh through his nose — not mocking, just utterly gone for you.
“Not close enough for you, hm?”
Your cheeks warmed. You didn’t answer.
You didn’t need to.
Kylian’s gaze deepened, softened — something melting behind his eyes.
Slowly, he reached down and tugged his shirt off, dropping it on the couch beside him with a soft thud.
And then he took your hand gently — so gently — and placed it flat on his bare chest, right over his pounding heart.
The moment your palm touched him, his breath hitched.
His skin was warm and golden beneath your fingers, muscles shifting as he breathed.
“How about now?” he whispered, leaning in, brushing his lips over yours without actually kissing you. The ghost of contact made your whole body tighten.
You shook your head, barely able to speak.
His breath hit your mouth.
He made a low sound, almost a groan, and pulled you in tighter by the waist.
“Now?” His lips brushed yours again — barely, barely — like he was torturing you and himself at the same time.
You hum softly.
His hand slid slowly down your arm, barely grazing you — the lightest, softest touch, sending shivers racing across your skin.
“Did you miss my touch?”
You inhaled sharply.
Your eyes squeezed shut for a moment like you needed to breathe through the feeling. When you opened them again, they burned.
“Yes,” you whispered.
His fingers traced up your arm — slow but sure — leaving goosebumps in their wake.
You shivered, and he watched it happen like it physically pained him in the best way.
“Like this?” he murmured, brushing his fingertips from your wrist to your shoulder, then back down, eyes locked onto yours.
You nodded, but he shook his head, leaning in until his lips were a breath from yours.
“I want to hear you.” he whispered, voice rough.
You exhaled, shaking. “Yes.”
His hand slid to the back of your neck, warm, steady, guiding you in. „Let me touch you properly, then.”
And then he kissed you.
Soft.
Slow.
It was all the days apart, all the longing, all the held-back wanting crashing at once.
His other hand clutched your waist, pulling you flush against him as his lips moved with yours — deep, hungry, like he couldn’t get enough, like he’d been starving for you.
Your fingers twisted into his curls, tugging, and he let out a low, throaty sound against your mouth that sent heat flooding through you.
He pulled back just an inch — panting, forehead pressed to yours, breath mixing in short, hot bursts.
“God…” he whispered, eyes burning into yours. “I’ve been going insane without you.”
Then he kissed you again — harder this time, full of fire and need and everything he hadn’t said over the phone.
His fingers traced the length of your arm again, slower this time, deliberate and tender, as if he was relearning every inch of you.
His forehead brushed yours.
“Tell me…” he whispered, breath warm against your lips.
“Tell me how much you missed me.”
Your voice was barely a breath. “More than I could handle.”
Kylian kissed the corner of your mouth — slow, lingering, reverent.
“I have to make up for it, don’t I?” he murmured, hand sliding to your waist to pull you even closer — impossibly closer. Guiding you to grind on him.
Your breath was already uneven, but his was worse — sharp, hot, almost shaky — like he was barely holding himself together with you moving on his lap like this.
Your faces were so close your noses brushed.
So close he could feel every tiny hitch of your breathing.
So close he kept flicking his eyes down to your lips, then back up to your eyes, then down again, like he was losing the battle not to kiss you senseless.
“Kylian…” you whispered.
That was it.
That tiny, trembling way you said his name — it snapped something in him.
He groundsled your waist tighter on his bulge.
His eyes darkened, pupils blown wide, and he whispered in a low, breathless voice:
„I love the sound of my name coming from your mouth.”
His forehead pressed to yours, breaths chaotic, lips brushing yours with every inhale.
You barely got time to answer before he kissed you again, deeper this time, his hands gripping your waist like he needed you anchored to him.
The kiss turned urgent, hot, almost frantic. The kind of kiss that had been trapped in countless messages and missed calls and nights apart.
In one swift, breathless motion, he tightened his hold on your thighs.
“Hold on to me,” he murmured against your mouth.
Before you could even process it, he lifted you — strong arms scooping you up effortlessly, your legs wrapping around his waist on instinct.
He exhaled, voice breaking between kisses as your lips brushed down his jaw „I’m taking you to bed.”
You gasped, hands gripping his shoulders, but he kept kissing you through it, walking blindly toward the bedroom with you in his arms, barely pulling away for air.
He pressed you against the hallway wall for a second, just long enough to kiss you hard, his body pinning yours gently but firmly.
Your breath left you entirely.
“Kylian, I—”
He kissed the word right off your lips, swallowing the sound.
“I couldn’t stop thinking about this. About you. About your mouth… your hands…” You confessed.
His breath hit your cheek as you whispered, “I needed you.”
Your hands cupped his face, pulling him in again, and he kissed you like he’d been without oxygen and you were the first breath he’d taken in days.
„This night will be worth the wait.”
He carried you the rest of the way, steps hurried, controlled but uneven with how badly he wanted you close.
When he reached the bedroom, he laid you down gently — so gently it contrasted the fire in his eyes — but he didn’t let go of you. Not even for a second.
He came down over you, bracing one hand beside your head, the other sliding back to your cheek, thumb brushing your lower lip.
Your breaths tangled.
Your noses brushed.
Your lips hovered just a breath apart.
“Look at me,” he whispered.
You did.
Kylian’s eyes were dark, burning, but soft around the edges — full of need, yes, but also relief, and love, and the ache of missing you.
“How deep do you want it?” he murmured, voice barely there.
Your fingers traced his jaw, and he shivered under your touch.
“Deep,” you whispered, breath shaky. “Slow and deep.”
Something in his expression cracked — a mixture of hunger and tenderness and something deeper.
He lowered his forehead to yours, lips brushing, eyes half-closed.
“Fuck,” he breathed, right before he kissed you again — harder, deeper, more passionate than all the ones before.
The moment his lips met yours again, the world shrank to the heat of his breath and the weight of his body hovering over yours.
Kylian kissed you like he couldn’t pace himself, like every second away from you had been stored up in him and was breaking loose all at once. His hand slid to your waist, fingers spreading, gripping you as if he needed proof you were really beneath him.
Your breath hitched when he deepened the kiss, his mouth moving with a hungry, uneven urgency — not rushed, not careless, but desperate.
He wanted you naked, but it’s not your body that he was thinking of. He wanted to undress every fear that you may have.
He wanted to unravel your doubts, and reassure you that you deserve to be loved right.
He wanted you naked, but it’s the beautiful vulnerability that he seeked.
He pulled back just slightly, panting against your lips.
“Y/n…”
Your name came out rough, like he’d dragged it up from somewhere deep in his chest. „Sit up. Let me undress you.”
He tenderly took each piece off,
Layer by layer.
Sweater.
Jeans.
Bra.
Panties.
Leaving you bare.
Watching you unfold.
Like petals of a flower.
He took off his pants as well.
His boxers.
Clothes piled on the floor.
You touched the hot skin of his chest. And he took your hand to guide it down to his abdomen.
He let out a breath — a shaky, needy one — and leaned into your touch like he’d been craving it more than anything.
Something flickered in his eyes — a soft surrender, a wild wanting.
He lowered himself until his body pressed fully against yours, warm skin molding to yours, his weight grounding you and igniting you all at once.
He slipped inside you, slowly, and held there for a moment. Simply gazing into your eyes. Surveying the depths of your soul as he tested the depths of your body.
His forehead dropped to your cheek as he whispered through a breathless laugh:
“Oh, Y/N,..”
His lips dragged slowly along your jaw. A lingering glide of heat that made your back arch toward him.
He felt it.
He groaned, low and unfiltered, and his hand moved up your side, tracing the shape of you like he was relearning every line he’d missed.
Your heart hammered under his touch.
“I missed you, Kylian…”
He lifted his head so your faces were level — eyes burning, breath fanning across your lips.
You cupped his jaw, pulling him in again.
The kiss he gave you wasn’t gentle.
It was raw, consuming, full of need that had been simmering far too long.
It stole your breath.
It stole his next breath too.
His hand slid to the small of your back, pulling you up into him in one smooth, instinctive motion. Your bodies meeting halfway with a heat that sent shivers racing through both of you.
He grabbed both of your wrists, pinned your hands above your head.
Thrusting deeper.
S l o w e r.

You wanted to touch him, but his grip didn’t loosen up, just like his desire for you.
Your lips broke apart only because he had to breathe, but he stayed so close your noses brushed, your breaths tangled, your lips ghosted.
„Can you moan for me, y/n?”
He nuzzled his nose on the bottom of your neck. „Bless me with the sound of it.” He muttered.
And you moaned.
From the depth of your soul.
His eyes fluttered shut, like the sounds hit somewhere vulnerable.
He lowered his lips to yours again — slower, deeper, more intimate — and murmured against your mouth:
“Oh, how I’ve missed the feeling of you.”
Your eyes teared up again.
Because you love him.
You love his smile, the way he looks at you, the way he holds you, the way he touches and kisses you.
You love his hands, his arms, his lips, his eyes. You love his body.
You love the way he thinks, the way his mind works. You love that he allows himself to be vulnerable with you and shares his deepest thoughts and knows you will not judge him and knows you will still love him.
You love how he loves. He loves life and he loves others. He loves so much. And you feel so lucky; he is in love with you.
He loves you…
And you love him, mind, body, and soul.
You said his name.
And he tasted it on your tongue. Breathed it into your lungs.
Till it mingled with your blood.
He said your name.
He let it escape with his breath onto your lips and into your ear as you felt him thrusting in and out.
You said each other’s names,
In the cold of the night,
You comforted one another, stroked, touched, and kissed.
He thrusted faster then,
„I’m close. Oh, I’m so close.” He said in a low, shaky tone.
You let him feel the ripples from your tongue, erupting so strong, that he had to hold onto the sheets to survive,
for you had a wild fire burning in your hearts, and only celebrating that fire together could save you both.
Your faces were so close your lips brushed every time either of you breathed.
„Kylian..” You managed to say.
„Mmm, amour?” He kissed your jaw.
„I want you to cum inside me.”
He stopped and stared.
He nudged your cheek with his nose again. Slow.
Deliberate.
Possessive.
His breath hit your skin, warm and ragged.
“Don’t,” he murmured, voice low and wrecked. “Don’t tell me things like that.”
It wasn’t a scold.
It was a warning — the kind that vibrated down your spine.
You swallowed. “I mean it—”
He nudged you again, this time dragging the bridge of his nose up your cheekbone, slow enough to make your pulse stutter.
“You don’t..” he whispered, his voice unsteady, heated. “When you say things like that… I lose every bit of control I have left.”
Your breath hitched. “Please…”
His eyes snapped open — dark and burning and way too close.
“Don’t say please like that.”
It came out as a whisper, but sharp, tight, almost dangerous.
You held his gaze. “Please.”
Something inside him broke.
A low, guttural sound left his throat. A sound you’d never heard from him, a mix of hunger and frustration and need. His grip on your wrists tightened for just a second before he let go completely, almost like he was terrified of what he’d do if he kept holding you.
Your arms fell free.
The moment your hands touched his back, sliding over warm skin and muscle— He inhaled sharply through his teeth, his whole body shuddering like your touch hit him too hard, too deep.
Your hands traveled down to his ass, and you urged him to thrust again.
“Y/n…” he breathed, eyes squeezing shut.
“Don’t do that. Not unless you want me to—”
He cut himself off, forehead dropping to your cheek, breath shaking against your skin.
You digged your nails in his skin.
He groaned — an actual groan — low, rough, involuntary.
His hands came to your cheeks, framing your face, his thumbs trembling just slightly as he tilted your head up to his.
He stared at you like you were breaking him apart.
His voice dropped to something sinful, smoky, a whisper right on your lips:
“Say it again.”
You exhaled shakily. “Please.”
His breath stopped.
His forehead pressed to yours so hard it almost hurt, his lips hovering a hair from yours.
“Again,” he murmured, voice unsteady and heavy with desire.
“Say it until I can’t think straight.”
You lifted your hips as a reminder for him to continue.
“Kylian… please”
He made a low sound, chest vibrating against yours, and whispered:
„Fuck..”
You found your salvation under the weight of his naked body moving again, hand gripped yours as he pushed and pulled you from one side of insanity to the other. there’s no prettier shade of pink than his parted lips glistening with your nectar. The only prayer he had was your name on his lips and a desire to love you.
„Keep your eyes on me.” He managed to say between breaths.
He thrusted deeper, but with more strength.
And you felt yourself tightening around him.
The sheets ruffle.
Your moans got louder.
His breathing more frantic.
The frantic collision of flesh, the sweat the heat, the pleasure is beyond human comprehension.
And then he spills it inside you. And he groans.
You felt his heat splashing inside the deepest part of you.
You stayed in the same position
Your orgasm came like a little death,
Writing each other’s eulogies in bed.
He watched you after;
How your breath fell short of your lips. And how you wiped your sweaty forehead, then laughed as your mood instantly changed. He wanted to see it all, feel all of you until his bones weakened with how heavy this heart was when his body is not next to yours.
Kylian was still catching his breath, chest rising and falling against yours. His forehead rested against your shoulder, warm and damp, like even being this close to you was overwhelming.
You ran your fingers gently through the back of his hair.
He inhaled sharply, then let out a low laugh. The kind that sounded wrecked and happy and exhausted all at once.
“Wait…” he murmured, voice still shaky.
“Hold on a second.”
You frowned softly as he pulled away, breathless and smiling like you’d just ruined him in the best way.
“Kylian…?”
He pressed a quick kiss to your jaw.
“Don’t move,” he whispered, still breathless. “I will be right back.”
He slipped off the bed, disappearing into the hallway.
You could still hear his uneven breathing — the little huffs and murmurs under his breath — as he rustled through his bag.
Then he came back in, triumphant, holding a small wrapped box in his hand.
Your brows furrowed.
He grinned, that boyish grin that made your chest ache.
“You told me to bring them,” he said softly. “And I listen to you, remember?”
He climbed back into bed, immediately pulling the blankets over both of you — cocooning you against his warm, tired body. The moment you were covered, he wrapped an arm around your waist and tugged you into him, like he’d been starving for this closeness.
He opened the box with one hand, still breathless, still looking at you like he wasn’t fully recovered from the moment before.
The rabitos glistened softly in the low light.
He picked one up, brought it to your lips, and whispered:
“Ahh.”
You opened your mouth, and he fed half of it to you gently, watching your mouth with that soft, hungry look you knew too well.
He munched the other half. And looked at you for your reaction.
“Bon? (Good?)” he asked.
You nodded slowly.
You swallowed, breath catching.
“Good.” you licked your lip. „Yum.”
He brushed his thumb over your cheek, slow and tender now, the intensity replaced by quiet warmth.
“Yum indeed,” he whispered, voice low and velvety, and pecked your lips.
He fed you another piece, his hand steadying your jaw, his breath mixing with yours under the warm cocoon of the blanket.
And with the rabitos between you, the blanket wrapped around you both, and his heartbeat pressed against your chest, he pulled you closer — like he was finally, finally home.
And he was.
So were you.
