I don't own the secret circle
When we finally broke the kiss, I was flushed and he was smiling that big goofy grin that I rarely got to see. I didn't even realize that the boat had been docked.
We thanked Mr. Murphy and left with arms full of daisies. There were so many of them we left a trail from the dock all the way to the car.
"your car is going to smell like daisies for a week" I laughed as we loaded them into the back seat.
"I don't mind. A pleasant reminder of tonight, of you" he said leaning and kissing my cheek.
"I'm going to remember this night for a very long time" I smiled softly lifting my hand to his cheek. He nuzzled into my touch and kissed my hand before opening my car door for me.
The drive back to Crowhaven Road was short and silent. Nick held my hand the entire time. It was like we finally were together and neither one of us wanted to let go. It was like we had to make up for lost time. He pulled into the driveway at Number Twelve, shut the car off and came around to open my door. We once again loaded our arms with daisies and headed in the house.
We went into the kitchen and put the piles of daisies on the table. I was laughing at the amount of daisies there actually were. I started pulling out vases from the cupboards and Nick started filling them with water.
We started filling the vases and we were laughing so hard. "when I ordered I had them delivered to the boat. I guess didn't realize how many 1,460 daisies really were" he laughed.
"That's a lot of daisies" I giggled.
"one daisy for every day we were apart" he smiled. I put the bouquet of daisies I was holding down and went over to him.
"that's the sweetest thing anyone has ever done for me" I said leaning up and giving him a quick kiss.
"I try" he giggled squeezing me tight. I let go and went back to finish what I was doing.
When all the flowers we finally in water, "where are you going to put these?" he asked .
"well these" I said gesturing to a large vase filled with the flowers and a bouquet I was tying together with a string "are coming with me" and I left the room.
Nick followed me upstairs to my bedroom where I placed the big vase on the bedside table. I pulled out a chair and brought it over to the window. I stood on the chai rand starting tying the bouquet to the curtain rod so that the flowers hung down.
"what are you doing?" Nick asked curiously looking up at me.
"I'm drying these so I can keep them forever" I smiled. I got down from the chair and put the chair back at my desk. I went back over to the window to open in when I felt strong hands grab my hips and felt soft lips against my neck.
I closed my eyes and let the electric shock of those kisses take me over. They were slow and deliberate and made the flames of the fire that was burning within me scorch with desire. I spun around and looked up in his eyes that appeared to have the same desire in them that I felt. He leaned down and kissed me more forcefully this time, nibbling at my bottom lip, I let out a soft moan. His mouth was warm and his taste was addicting. I couldn't get enough of him. He gently placed his hands on my shoulders sliding the fabric off the cardigan I was wearing off of them and I let it fall to the floor. He took my face in his strong hands and continued to kiss me. My hands had a mind of their own as they played with the hem of his shirt. I broke the kiss to lift the soft gray t-shirt over his head without any protest. His tanned, toned torso, his perfectly sculpted 6 pack, the ripples in his biceps was a piece of art. The way they flexed when he put his arms around my waist had me feeling all tingly in places I didn't even know existed. I let my hands roam his soft skin as he continued kissing my neck and my shoulders.
Things were getting heated between us and neither of us showed signs of slowing down anytime soon. I shivered as I felt his hands reach under the cotton tank top I was wearing and caress my bare back. It was a sensation like no other. Electricity ran up and down my spine and permeated through my entire body. This time it was my kisses that made him let out a soft moan as my tongue traced his bottom lip. All bets were off after that. His eager hands pulled my shirt over my head and I was left in my light blue lace bra and jeans. He looked down at me and smiled liking what he saw. He lifted me up kissing me and I wrapped my legs around his waist. He carried me to the bed and laid me down. He hovered over me, his mahogany eyes soft.
"I love you" he whispered.
"then show me" I gasped as I pulled his face to mine. It didn't take long for our clothes to end up in heaps on the floor. Nick was slow and gentle and loved me in a way that no one else ever had. The feel of our bodies intertwined was like nothing I had ever experienced. Every touch, every kiss left me wanting more.
I woke up the next morning with his arms wrapped tightly around me and my head resting on his bare chest. I opened my eyes, looked up at him and smiled. He was awake and his dark eyes had a look of pride and love in them. I leaned over and kissed him softly.
"good morning" he said softly kissing my nose "sleep well?" he asked.
"best sleep I ever had" I said cuddling closer into him and it was. For the first time in four years, I caught up to Nick in my dream. I hollered at him from the bluff and he heard me. He waited for me to get to him this time, we spoke no words, he reached his hand out to me and I took it letting my fingers interlace with his and we walked off on the beach together.
I looked up at Nick knowing from this moment on it was going to be Nick and Cassie forever.
