Between his words and the feel of him, I could barely hold back, and I tightened around him, letting myself go, my moan filling the room. He pumped harder and faster the more I tightened around him, and within seconds, I could feel him pulse inside me as he emptied himself, his moan now filling the room. He leaned down, breathing hard, and met my lips, allowing his body to collapse on top of mine.
I lay there with my eyes closed, trying hard to catch my breath. He pulled himself from me and disappeared into the bathroom. A few moments later, I felt the blankets move, and he slid into the bed. I rolled over to meet him, allowing him to pull me against him. He held me tightly in his arms, my head resting on his chest, as he kissed me gently.

"Here, let me grab that," I said, getting up to remove the tray of empty dishes from her lap and stacking it on top of mine. I carried them out to the door and placed them outside, the cold hitting me as I set the tray on the ground outside. I quickly closed and locked the door, and then made my way back to the bedroom.
We had woken late, and with the snow falling hard outside, we had mutually agreed to spend our last day of vacation in bed together.
I closed the bedroom door quietly and dropped my robe. Tess lay on her back, her eyes closed. We’d had sex multiple times throughout the night, and just like me, she, too, was exhausted. I did my best not to disturb her and threw the blankets back so I could slide in under the covers.
She surprised me when I had gotten comfortable by sliding over to me wrapping her arms around me. I pulled her warm body against me and relaxed back into bed.
"Happy New Year," I whispered.
She looked up at me and pressed her lips to mine. "Happy New Year," she whispered, looking into my eyes.
She was so beautiful as she lay there, her hair mussed. I ran my fingers through her hair, placing my hand at the back of her head, and pulled her close for a kiss.
"Are you sure you don't want to do anything today?"
She looked at me with heady eyes and nodded, sucking her swollen lip into her mouth.
"We can do anything you want," I said, running my finger along that pouty lip.
"Anything?"
"Anything," I repeated. "All you need to do is say the word. We can shop, go snowshoeing, skiing if you’re up for it, whatever you want, just say it."
I had expected her to reply with something in mind, but she surprised me by giggling at my suggestions and shook her head. “What I have in mind doesn’t require us leaving this room,”
she replied shyly, sliding down under the covers. I inhaled deeply as she took my cock into her hot mouth.
"Fuck me..." I murmured under my breath as I enjoyed the feeling of her mouth on me.
I heard a tiny giggle, and once again her mouth was on me, her tongue running around me. I closed my eyes and let myself relax as she continued, and then I pushed the blankets to the side and put my arm behind my head, adjusting the pillow so I could watch her as she took me deep into her mouth again.
"Is this what you want to do today?" I breathed hard as I watched my cock disappear into her mouth repeatedly, her eyes meeting mine with a playful glint. She held my cock in her hand and ran her tongue from the base to the tip before she nodded her yes.
I reached over to the nightstand drawer and reached inside, pulling another condom from the box. "All right, baby, get ready."
Her eyes widened, and she watched while I ripped the package open.
We had spent the entire day in bed wrapped in one another's arms, alternating between resting and sex. We had gotten up around five, ordered in some dinner, eaten, and then took some time to pack our bags. I now sat on the couch, trying to slow my thoughts, while I watched the news while Tess was in the shower.
What the hell was this that had happened? What were we to one another? Those were the only questions that kept running through my head as I sat there staring at the TV. I grabbed the remote, silencing the TV, and leaned back against the couch, resting my head back on the pillows as I stared at the screen. There was so much I had wanted to talk to Tess about today. I'd had an amazing trip, and the connection I felt between us was something I hadn't felt since Jenn.
I wanted to talk to her about how she felt and where she wanted things to go between us once we returned home, but I didn't know how to broach the subject. Part of me wasn't sure she was even ready to be entering another relationship so soon after Derrick.
I stood up and began pacing in front of the couch, my mind running in all directions as I tried to come up with what I should say to her. I could always tell her I wanted to see where we could go, or I could just tell her right upfront about how I felt and lay my heart right out on the line, risking the fact that her answer could in fact break mine into pieces. But I shook my head no, worrying that if I did that, she might think I was pressuring her into answering me. The last thing I wanted to do was scare her away.
I got up and paced back and forth across the living room, muttering to myself the words I thought I could say, when I heard a noise behind me.
I twisted around to see Tess standing just outside the bathroom door, wrapped in a towel, staring at me. "What are you doing?" she questioned, a frown on her face.
"Nothing..." I quickly answered, swallowing hard.
"Doesn't look like nothing."
"What does it look like?"
"It looks like you’re planning on telling me some sort of bad news."
I let out a laugh, only instead of stopping, I just continued laughing. If she thought for a second I was going to tell her bad news, she was crazy. The only bad news here was that I was crazy about her and had no idea how to tell her.
"Are you sure you’re okay? You are acting totally weird," Tess said with her eyes glued to me as she walked by me, heading into the bedroom.
"I swear it's all good."
She gave me an unsure look and then took a couple steps into the room. "All right, as long as you're sure. I am heading to bed. Morning comes early.”
I watched as she walked into the bedroom and began to relax, until she came back out. “Are you coming?"
She stood there gripping the towel in her hands, and in my mind, I wished she would drop it and entice me into the bedroom, making me forget everything that was running through my mind. I wanted to stay right in this moment forever. I nodded. "I'll be right in."
She simply nodded and walked into the bedroom. I sat down on the couch and put my head in my hands, taking a moment to think about what I was about to do. I searched my thoughts, wondering if I was only feeling this way because she had been the first since Jenn. Although, the longer I searched my mind and my heart, I knew that what I was feeling was indeed very real. I’d always known it would be when I finally took that step.
My insides screamed at me to just tell her, but there was that tiny nagging voice in the back of my mind that instilled every doubt that every man felt at least once in their life. Instead of going with my heart, I allowed that tiny voice to take over and win, and to talk me out of exposing my heart.
I wasn't here to make her fall in love with me. I wasn't here to become her man. I was here because she didn't want to travel alone. This entire vacation would soon become a distant memory, just like Jenn had. We'd return home, time would pass, she would meet someone else, and I would watch her slip away from me.
