Prompt 43 from mcgarrygirl78, I can't believe we didn't find each other until now
Someone asked about my tumblr- I have the same username/url: barsonaddict
Her vision is spotty, and she can barely breathe. The room is dim, but she can see the man next to her on the mattress in her peripheral vision, chest heaving.
They're both naked, breathing hard, and sweaty. Olivia Benson has never felt so alive. When the feeling returns to her extremities she reaches out blindly, grasping for his hand. She can't quite manage to turn her head just yet.
Her partner doesn't seem to be faring much better, grunting and squeezing her hand in response.
They lay side by side on their backs, only joined by their linked hands, trying to settle their breathing. After a solid two minutes of further silence, Olivia musters up the energy to roll onto her side toward him, meeting his eyes. She can't hold back the smile, doesn't want to.
He returns her smile, and laughs. "Eso fue increíble."**
She smirks. "Oh no, I fucked you into your native language."
Barba smirks back, continuing in Spanish. "You certainly did. I
swear to god, I've never felt anything like that. You are amazing."
She answers in English. "We are amazing. It's never been like that for me either. Jesus, Raf, I almost blacked out."
He's managed to catch his breath and regain control over his body, so he releases her hand and rolls away from her, grabbing the only blanket he can reach- her fluffy duvet. He pulls it up onto the bed and covers them both, snuggling into her.
She fits into his side like a puzzle piece, and he can't help placing kisses into her hair.
"I can't believe we didn't find each other until now," she whispers, savoring his loving touches and absently running her fingers through his chest hair.
Rafael hums his agreement. "It was totally worth the wait."
"Yes, but we are definitely not waiting another three years to do it again!"
**That was incredible
