CHAPTER: 32

Holy hell, Robert Goren is a sex god. Just wow!

"Wow." Alex mumbled and then instantly reddened as a result of saying it out loud.

"Yeah, Alex, wow." He murmured. He too was amazed at the amount of passion that was just shown between the two of them.

"You're an amazing lover, Bobby."

And boy did Bobby's smile grow. It didn't hurt his ego either. It wasn't the first time he had been told that, but it had definitely been a while. He doesn't care about those other times though. This was the only time and the only woman that mattered now.

"Lover, huh, Eames?" He finally replied back.

She laughed at her last name being used once again and then nodded her head.

"Yeah, lover, Goren. What do you have to say about that?" She asked him. It was almost like she was challenging him. She wanted to know what he was thinking.

His smile faded slightly and he became deathly serious.

"I'd have to say that that sounds amazingly too good to be true." He murmured.

"Now you know how I feel about all of this…about us." She said and slowly diverted her eyes down to around their naked lower halves and then back up. "It was amazing, Bobby." She swallowed. "It is amazing."

"Alex?"

"Hmm?"

"I love you so very much. You have no idea how much this means to me. How long I've dreamt of this to happen…and now that it has, it's even better than I had ever imaged." Bobby admitted. He wanted to be totally honest with her and it took everything in his power not to look away from her as he admitted his feelings.

Her heart soured after hearing his words. He was opening up to her, he was being completely honest, and she was thankful for it.

"Ditto, Bobby." She said and scooted into his large frame as much as possible. Bobby reached for the covers and covered them up and then held onto her for dear life. He never wanted to let go.

After a few moments of silence, Alex could tell Bobby had something on his mind. He was swallowing more than normal and trying not to shift positions every second. It was slightly humorous.

"What is it, Mr. Twitchy?" She asked. She tried as hard as she could to keep the humor out of her tone, but she failed.

His body froze for a moment before he could answer.

Mr. Twitchy?

"Mr…What?" He asked, caught off guard.

"Mr. Twitchy." She repeated and smiled at his confused look. She then sighed. "What's on your mind, Bobby? I can tell you're thinking about something because you're trying as hard as you can not to twitch." And then Bobby smiled as the understanding of his "nickname" began to sink in. Alex matched his smile and then added, "And you're swallowing a lot too. It's a nervous habit of yours I noticed at the beginning of our partnership. You do it when you have something on your mind…or you're thinking too damn much."

Wow, this woman knows me better than I thought.

"Just…am I really the only man to…" He paused to look into her eyes. The last thing he wanted to do was make her feel uncomfortable.

Alex nodded. She knew what he wanted to ask.

"Yeah, you are." She paused to reach up with her left hand and softly stroke his right cheek. He closed his eyes at the feeling. "And it was amazing, Bobby."

"It was." He nodded and then opened his eyes. He looked up in time to catch her yawning. "Go to sleep, baby. I'm not going anywhere."

He called me baby. Oh god I could get used to that. And the way he says it makes the word even sexier.

"Ok…" She began to giggle and then added, "Bobby Bear." She smiled at the thought of her newfound nickname for him. It was the second nickname she had come up with for him in a matter of seconds.

"Bobby Bear?" He asked. "How many nicknames do you have for me, Alex?" He asked in amazement.

"Hmm, not too many." She asked and grinned. "But Bobby Bear suits you because, damn, you feel like a, though very large size, human teddy bear. It feels amazing to finally have you pressed up against me." She seductively stated and then added, "Especially when we're both naked."

"Hmm, I'll take that to be a compliment." He murmured. "I know some woman don't…don't really like to…cuddle." He said and quickly added, "But I do. I always have. I don't know why, but I do…but with the other woman I've been with, it never felt right. Not like this." He whispered and kissed her forehead. "We fit together so perfectly that you…we bring a whole new meaning to the word cuddle."

Lying on her right side, facing Bobby, Alex slowly trailed her hand down his muscular arm and then around his waist. She wrapped her arm around him and gently squeezed his ass. She wanted to hold onto him and never let go either. Bobby mimicked her actions, lying on his left side, but then lifted his right leg up and gently rested it on her own. He wanted as much contact as possible.

Alex could feel his entire body tightly pressed up against hers and it was sending waves of pleasure through her once again.

Oh god, I'm already ready for round two. God, what this man does to me.

A/N: Yeah, so I used the Mr. Twitchy name. I freaking love that. Whoever it was that came up with that nickname for him first is awesome! LOL It's one of my favorite nicknames for him (Smiles).

Thanks and thank you all so much for your kind reviews so far. I love reading your thoughts and ideas about this. It makes me smile.
