3:24 a.m.

"Oh god," Bella moans, her hips faltering over me. My fingers dig into her flesh, my muscles straining to keep her bouncing over me. Our bodies are slick with sweat, our breathing has grown shallow. The tension in the air is primed, ready to snap at any moment, all we need is…

Bella's hand slides between our joined bodies, her fingers splitting to form a 'V'. I feel her start to rub herself, her knuckles rubbing against me in the process.

I buck under her and she cries out, her head falling to my shoulder as she struggles to keep any sort of rhythm.

"I'm almost there," she pants,

"I know," I respond, my hands flexing over her ass. My fingers creep around, stroking her between her pussy and her ass. I feel her clench around me, her body, leaning into my touch.

"Do that again," she gasps. I gather the moisture between us and slide my fingers up toward her ass. I can feel her picking up steam as she slams down over my cock again and again. My middle finger gently probes against her ass, and that's all it takes. She's coming hard, head thrown back, body clamping down so hard over me that I'm forced to follow her.

Our limbs wrap around each other, needing the other to keep us anchored through our pleasure.

When we come down again, Bella climbs off me, wincing slightly. I get up to take the condom off and clean up, bringing a small hand towel back for her. She smiles tiredly at me from the bed, but waves off the towel.

"I'll shower when I can get my legs under me," she moans. I chuckle, stretching out on the bed with her.

She immediately curls into my arms, throwing her leg over my waist.

She fits against me like we were made for each other.

The room falls quiet and content, and I think after a moment that Bella is asleep, when she speaks.

"Do you work tomorrow?"

I glance at her, my hand coming up to brush her hair back from her face.

"No, I have it off."

She shifts so that she's looking up at me.

"I was thinking we could maybe hang out. You know, in the daylight hours, like normal people."

I chuckle, brushing her hair back.

"I would really love to, but my mom's birthday is tomorrow." I wince. I still haven't found her a gift. Shit. "Damn, and I have to find her a gift before I head over," I groan, my eyes squeezing shut.

"What does she like?"

I open my eyes and look at Bella. "Honestly, her boys," I say with a smirk. She rolls her eyes. "My mom is classy, but she's also weirdly into trinkets."

Bella hums. "Maybe get her a necklace with your birthstone or something," she suggests. My eyebrows go up in surprise. I would have never thought of that.

"That's a great idea," I say slowly. "I'll have to find somewhere open to do one, but I'm sure I can find something."

Bella nods, shifting her head against my chest. "I know a place. I can take you in the morning if you want."

I smile, even though she's not looking at me.

"Yeah, I'd really love that."
