"Why on earth do you have so many candles?!" Zed exclaimed as he lifted the unexpectedly heavy box out of the linen closet. Addison huffed as she held the flashlight up so her husband could pick the right one out of the darkness.
"Pretty sure you should be thanking me for my candle obsession instead of complaining about it right now." She pouted.
"I guess they are coming in handy now." He joked, giving her a light nudge of his elbow once he had the box down off the shelf. She giggled with an eye roll he couldn't see and led him back to the living room. He set the box carefully on the coffee table as she went to find the lighters. Zed started setting the candles on any flat surface, feeling his way around the familiar area so he wouldn't bump into or break anything.
"Found 'em!" She called, rushing back into the room.
"How long do you think the power'll be out?" Zed wondered aloud.
"Who knows. But I'm sure it'll be back on by morning at the latest." She assured, going behind him to light the candles he'd set out already.
"Ah, I see." He hummed. "So we gotta share body heat to keep warm tonight." He turned back to give her a sly wink that made her giggle. She released the lighter switch and smiled over at her green haired husband.
"Let's finish lighting these around the house, then discuss our survival plan." She teased. Zed laughed and stretched over for a quick peck before continuing their mission to light up their house.
The faint orange glow filled the room, shadows cast abstractly against every surface. But Zed and Addison were already tangled up in the bed, their mouths moving together in a practiced dance. Their clothes stripped and forgotten, thrown haphazardly somewhere on the bedroom floor.
Zed nudged her legs slightly further apart so his manhood was pressed intimately against her center, pulling back slightly to look into her beautiful eyes. She shivered under him, her hips wiggling almost impatiently as she stretched back up to reconnect their lips. And he doesn't deny her.
He pulled his hips back for his tip to pop into position at her entrance and slowly pushed in. She threw her head back in ecstasy as he filled her completely, a strangled gasp stuck in her throat. Zed kisses her stifled column, his tongue savoring the taste of her skin as he licked and sucked, rocking in and out of her slick folds in a smooth slow rhythm.
She was gasping and moaning along with his thrusts, the chill of the air started prickling at their skin. Zed wrapped around her tighter to keep their warmth in as he showered her with affections. She stretched her arm down and gripped the quilt, pulling it over his back clumsily. Successfully cocooning them with the blanket.
He lifted his head from the crook of her neck and slowed nearly to a stop, smiling lovingly down at her before she closed the gap between their lips again. He started moving again, trying his best to portray how much he adores her with each thrust, each kiss, each touch of his fingertips on her soft skin.
Addison hooked her ankles around his hips, arms looped around his back and neck. Bringing her body as close to his as humanly possible. He slid on hand under her waist, her belly touching his. The rolling of his stomach muscles against hers so intimate and erotic, it drove her off the cliff. Zed's breath hitched, he ground deep inside her as he released.
When he finished, they both collapsed, a mess of sweaty, tangled limbs and deep, panting breaths from pounding hearts. She combed her fingers through his hair affectionately while they settled, his thumb rubbing comforting circles against her hip as he held onto her. Until she eventually wiggled underneath him to loosen his grip, kissing his forehead for added measure.
"Come on Zed, you gotta let me up!" She laughed when he didn't budge, even going completely deadweight on top of her to keep her from escaping. But when she pulled his face up to kiss his lips, he begrudgingly rolled off of her since she was so nice.
"But I just wanna cuddle and go to sleep!" He whined. She threw on her robe before throwing a playful smile his way.
"So you wanna just let all the candles burn all the way down so we won't have any if the power goes out again?" She questioned. He groaned and slid off the bed to put on his boxers.
"Ok fine! I guess I'll help you with your hoard of candles." He grumbled teasingly. She giggled and kissed him once he was close enough.
"They came in handy. Don't lie." She said as they went around the house blowing out the array of candles.
