We stepped into our temporary house. I smiled. "Good job, Jack. I like it."
He chuckled. "Well, I'm glad."
It was a two-story house with a wide living room. The walls were blue and white. A sofa couch was positioned by the right wall and a maroon recliner was by the back wall. A small mahogany table was positioned in the middle of the room. The white, carpeted stairs were by the left wall, leading up to a small alcove. I smiled and squeezed Jack's hand.
"It's really homey. I really like it." I turned to him. "How many beds?"
He chuckled uncomfortably. I rolled my eyes. "There's only one, isn't there?"
He shrugged. "Sorry, I didn't think that far ahead."
I groaned and walked up to the alcove. The bed was a queen-sized bed with blue-spotted sheets. I smiled and flopped on the bed. Jack came up and saw me.
"You like it?" he asked smiling.
I nodded and snuggled under the covers. Jack jumped on the bed and lied down next to me. He put his hands behind his head and sighed.
"Finally, this is what normal life is like," he sighed.
I chuckled. "This is the best life I've had!" I turned to look at him. "Traveling, lying in bed for hours…"
Jack laughed. "It's pretty nice, isn't it?"
I nodded. He turned to look at me and smiled. "Are you happy, Aridena?"
I nodded. "Yes, Jack, I am. Happier than I've ever been."
Jack caressed my cheek and I closed my eyes. He pushed the bangs out of my eyes and I opened my eyes. He leaned in closer and cupped his hands under my chin. I leaned in closer and Jack gently pressed his lips to mine.
Fireworks went up in my head and Jack's scent made me feel happy. He pressed closer to me and I wrapped my hands around his neck. He pulled me closer and slowly made the kissing more violent. My lips were moving with his and I was in Heaven. We lied there for what seemed forever and finally our lips parted.
I just stared into his eyes. He chuckled and I smiled. He grinned and began kissing me again.
