She Was His

The day had been so much fun. Adrianna, Gideon and Sophie's daughter, carried baby Henry around all day outside and ran with him in her arms. The girls cooked up the burgers and salad while the boys finished unpacking boxes. Tessa had forgot how fun it was to be surrounded by her family.

After dinner they all sat outside and talked and laughed and then retired to bed. Will and Tessa walked upstairs. Will went into the bathroom and changed into his nightclothes, which consisted of loose grey sweats and a white T-shirt. Then Tessa changed into her small sweats shorts and a white tank top.

She padded across the floor and sat beside Will on the bed who was watching TV on their new flat screen. He shut it off though once she came in and wrapped an arm around her.

"Thanks for the birthday party," Tessa said and she pecked Will on the lips.

"Anything for you," he said. They sat in silence for a few minutes then Will got up to turn the lights off and walked back over to bed. Tessa got up so he could pull back the white silk sheets and climb in.

She laid her head on his chest and then asked, "Will, why do you love me?"

He seemed surprised by her question, but he was quick to answer. She sat up and so did he before he said, "Well for starters, you are beautiful." He leaned in and kissed her in one fluid motion. "I brighten up as soon as you walk into the room." Then Will moved his lips to her jawbone and planted a few butterfly kisses their.

" You are very sarcastic at appropriate times." Then he dragged his lips up her jawbone to her ear. Tessa was shivering at this point. "That never seizes to make me laugh." Then he kissed her ear.

"You get so excited about books." Then he trailed his lips down to crook of her neck. He wrapped his arms around her as she moaned softly. "I love to talk about them with you." Then he started to kiss the crook of her neck.

"That's another thing. You are really intelligent." Then he kissed her down to her collarbone and Tessa arched her back a little bit. "Your"—he started but Tessa couldn't take it anymore. She pulled his head back and kissed him. It was long and sweet. His lips were warm as he slowly explored the inside of her mouth and bit her lips. When he pulled back her porcelain face was flushed red and her lips were swollen. He looked the same and the color made his eyes stick out.

They slowly lay back onto the bed with his warm body covering hers. Then he kissed her mouth, then her neck, and then her collar bone, and started to go lower. Were they really going to do it Tessa wondered. They had never even seen each other with clothes off before, but she felt like tonight was the night. And she wanted it to be.

Her hands travelled down his back and pulled at the hem of his shirt. He allowed her to slide it off of him. His lips had travelled back up to her collar bone, and she moaned. He started to lift up her shirt, and she was nervous, but it quickly vanished because it was Will. Will who made her heart flutter, Will who made her want to jump up and down and gave her butterflies in her stomach.

Will pulled up the rest of Tessa's shirt, and then her pure white bra. Soon all of their clothes were on the ground, and they connected as one forever. When it was all over they lay intertwined in the sheets. Will held her in a protective embrace and she had her back laid against his chest with her silky brown hair spread around her.

She had no idea what she did to Will. She could be his beginning, and when she was engaged to Jem, she was almost his end. He would love this girl forever and now she was his.

Tessa awoke in the morning feeling in a state of bliss. The silk white sheets were wrapped around her and the morning sunlight fluttered in through the windows, casting light of the room. She turned to face Will, but he wasn't there and she became confused.

But then he walked out of the bathroom, dressed for the day. He wore sweats and a black V-neck T-shirt. He smiled at her and walked over to the bed and lay down beside her.

"Good morning beautiful," he said. She rolled over to him and buried her head in his chest, the thin sheet putting a small layer between him and her naked chest. The sheet however didn't cover her back until it got to the waist. Will wrapped his muscled arms around her slight frame and smiled into her hair.

"What time is it?" she asked suddenly. She had forgotten they had guests and quickly sat up.

"Around eleven-thirty," Will replied as she yawned.

"Oh! I need to get up!" she said. They are all leaving today and I need to say good—

Will cut her off and said, "Don't worry they are all already on their way."

"Wait what! I was going to say goodbye and now I've slept in and been terribly rude," she said worriedly.

"Relax Tessa," said Will. Then he gently pushed her back against the plush pillows. He laid beside her and she snuggled into him, his warmth heating her cold body. Tessa fell back asleep in less than five minutes and he didn't want to let her go so he flipped on the TV. After about and hour Tessa woke up again, and this time for good.

She held the sheets up so they covered her and then pulled the blanket off the end. It was furry and she wrapped it around herself and climbed out of bed She reached down and picked her clothes up off the floor then went into the bathroom to change.

She came out clothed, but with the blanket still wrapped around her shivering form and snuggled close to Will. He realized she was cold and pulled their heavy comforter over them. They watched the movie and laughed and talked. She was his.
