I pull her into my arms, holding her close. “I know,” I murmur against her hair. “It’s okay to be scared. We’ll take things slow. There’s no rush.”
We stand like that for a moment. The steady beat of her heart against my chest calms my own racing pulse. When she finally pulls back, she looks a little more at ease.
“Feel free to use my bathroom,” she offers, pointing towards her en-suite.
I don’t want to be away from Harley for too long, so the moment I step under the spray, I lather up and clean off the dirt from today. It’s refreshing to feel the cool water on my skin, and as much as I wouldn’t mind a longer shower, I have a beautiful woman waiting on me, so I don’t linger. I exit the shower, and grabbing a towel, I quickly dry myself off, and put on a clean T-shirt and boxers before returning to the bedroom.
“Thank you,” I tell her.
“Let’s sit down,” she suggests, leading me over to the bed.
We sit, side by side, on the edge of the mattress, and I keep hold of her hand, drawing circles with my thumb on her skin.
“Harley, you mean everything to me,” I tell her softly. “I want this to be special for you, but more than that, I want you to feel safe and comfortable.”
She nods, her eyes glistening with unshed tears. “I do feel safe with you, Hadrian. More than I ever have with anyone else.”
I smile, brushing a strand of hair away from her face. “That’s all I want, Magpie.”
Harley leans into me, resting her head on my shoulder, and I wrap my arm around her and hold her close. We talk for a while about everything and nothing. The conversation flows easily, and I can feel her tension slowly melting away.
“I’ve been thinking a lot about us,” she says after a while, her voice wistful. “About what all this means for our future.”
I take a deep breath, my heart swelling with emotion. “Me too. I want a future with you, Harley. Whatever that looks like. Wherever it takes us, I want to be with you.”
She lifts her head to look at me, her eyes filled with a mixture of hope and uncertainty. “Even if that means leaving everything you know behind?”
I nod, my resolve firm. “Even then. You’re worth it, Harley. We’ll figure it out together.”
She smiles, and it’s like the sun breaking through the clouds. “I want that too,” she says softly. “I want to be with you, Hadrian. No matter what.”
We sit in comfortable silence for a while, just enjoying each other’s presence. Eventually, Harley shifts, looking at me with a tentative smile. “Can we lie down?” she asks, her voice barely above a whisper.
“Of course,” I reply, standing up to pull back the covers. She slips off her shoes and slides under the sheets, and I join her, lying on my side, facing her.
I reach out to gently caress her cheek. “You’re beautiful,” I say, the words slipping out without thought.
She blushes, a soft pink spreading across her cheeks.
“Thank you,” she whispers. “I’m so glad you’re here.”
We lie there, the quiet of the room wrapping around us like a cocoon. I can feel her trembling slightly, and I draw her closer, hoping to offer comfort.
“Just relax,” I murmur. “We’re in this together.”
She nods, resting her head on my chest, her breath warm against my skin.
“I’m trying,” she says, her voice muffled. “I just don’t want to mess this up. I’ve been dreaming about this moment for so long.”
“There’s nothing to mess up,” I assure her. “We’re just two people who care about each other, figuring things out. That’s all that matters.”
She sighs, her body relaxing. “You always know what to say to make me feel better.”
I chuckle softly. “I’m glad to hear that. I just speak from the heart.”
We fall silent again, the rhythm of our breathing synchronising. As the minutes tick by, I can feel the last of her tension easing away. She looks up at me, her eyes soft and full of love.
“I think I’m ready,” she says quietly.
I lean down to kiss her forehead. “Only if you’re sure,” I whisper. “We can take things slow, remember?”
She nods, a determined look in her eyes. “I’m sure. I want this, Hadrian. I want you.”
Her words send a thrill through me, but I keep my touch gentle, my movements slow. I kiss her softly, taking my time, letting her set the pace.
She responds eagerly, her hands tangling in my hair as she pulls me closer. Our tongues dual as I explore her mouth, tasting the sweetness that is pure Harley.
My cock aches to slide inside her now, to feel her wetness envelop me. I break the kiss, and slowly help her out of the top she’s wearing. The blue lace bra she has on makes her tits look luscious, and when I remove it and drop it to the floor, my mouth immediately makes its way to those perky light brown nipples that it’s been watering to taste.
