I stumble onto my doorstep, leaning against the wall, while I try to catch my balance in this topsy- tuvy world.

"Good night!" Cassidy calls through the window of the car.

"You better get it on with Ally!" Dallas shouts from the backseat. "Yeah!" Dez adds.

They are both as drunk as I am right now, because Dez kept the glasses coming at the club and the three of us drank until the world started to spin. None of us wanted to drive home in our state, so Dallas called Cassidy to pick us up and let me tell you: she was not happy about that.

I wave goodbye to my wasted friends and an angry Cassidy as they drive off into the night, not leaving any indication that they were there in the first place.

I grope my pocket, trying to find my keys; once I do I fumble for the lock, but the damn key won't fit.

I've just decided to climb in through a window, when the key finally clicks into place. I twist it and push the door open.

As the door opens, I finally figure out what was so strange as we were driving up: the lights are all off. It's pitch black inside except for the faint moonlight streaming in through the large window in the living room, which illuminates the furniture around the house.

Even so, in my lousy state, I manage to bump into everything.

Ally must be a heavier sleeper than I thought, because she doesn't wake up to all the racket I'm making.

I step into the hallway, my hand institnctly searching for the light switch. Once I find it though, I immediately regret it. The bright overhead light blurs my vision. I rub my eyes then blink them a few times. When my vision clears, I feel my eyes widen as big as saucers, my jaw drops three stories and my body goes slack as I take her in.

I was wrong, Ally is not asleep. She's leaning against the wall one leg propped behind her. She's wearing a strapless black dress that shows a little bit of her cleavage. The dress is tight, outlining her large breasts, her curvy waist. It reaches down to above her mid-thigh, barely covering her up. Her long brown curls fall down her shoulders, like chocolate waterfalls. In her hands she cradles a glass of wine.

Oh. My. God. Ally has never worn anything like this before. Not even on our honeymoon, where she wore shorts and t-shirts. She's never been the kind of girl to wear stuff that will make her look like a slut. She's always been uncomfortable with her body; never likes to show herself off. This is why I can't believe she's standing merely a few feet away dressed so… so… sexy?

"It's about time you came home." She says, annoyed, inspecting her wine glass.

Her voice snaps me from my stupor and I try to compose myself.

"Oh. Yeah. I was out with friends remember?" I try not to slur my words, as I continue to stare at her.

She looks up at me and smiles. "Yeah. Did you have a good time?" She asks walking over to me.

"Uhh, yeah." I say stupidly. God, I can barely think straight when she's so close dressed like that.

"Good." She says taking a sip from her glass.

"Umm, Ally? Since when do you drink?" I ask her trying hard not to stare at her cleavage. I've never seen Ally drink. Never. Not once. So this is kind of shocking. Wait, drinking, dressing like that, what the hell has gotten into her?

"What? This?" She asks innocently. "This is grape juice. Want some?" She asks holding the cup to me.

"Um, sure." I say taking the cup from her. I take a sip; the sweet sugary taste is a big contrast from the fiery taste of the alcohol I'd been drinking earlier.

While I savor the grape juice she begins to circle around me, like a planet orbiting a star.

"Austin." She says my name quietly. "Yeah?" I respond, turning my head to see her better. God, she is so beautiful.

"How long has it been since we did anything… sexual?" She asks standing in front of me.

I swallow hard, trying not to throw myself at her. "I don't know." I respond, staring at her long, soft legs. "A while."

"Well I think we should do something about that." She tells me, wrapping her arms around my waist. "It's been so long, Austin. So long since you touched me. So long since… you were inside me." She says quietly.

I wrap my arms around her, stroking her hair. She sounds so sad, so small.

We stay like that for a little longer. Then she pulls away and leans in closer so that are lips are just centimeters away. "I need you." She whispers, her lips brushing against mine with every word. And then she closes off the space, sealing our lips together.

The kiss is soft and sweet at first, but it soon becomes more heated. My hands travel down to her waist, her arms wrap around my neck. I feel her part her lips, and I take the invitation letting my tongue explore her mouth.

She pushes me against the wall. And we continue to explore each other, until she pulls away. We stand there panting, our bodies pressed against each other. God, she's right. It's been so long since I kissed her like that. So long since I tasted her. So long.

I begin to kiss her jawline, down to her neck where I bite her gently.

"Austin." She whispers. "What?" I mumble kissing her shoulder, glad this dress has no straps to interfere.

I force myself to pull away and look into her eyes. She's smiling. She kisses my cheek, then whispers in my ear (quite seductively might I add) "Will you make love to me?" She stares at me, waiting for me to say something, but I think she already knows what I'll say.

I'll admit I'm a bit shocked by the question. When did Ally get so bold?

"The answer was, is, and always will be yes." I tell her, matching her smile, running my thumb along her cheek.

She claps her hands together, bouncing slightly. She pulls me into one last lingering kiss then takes my hand smiling again. But there's something not quite right about this smile. Something seems a bit… off about it; it's as if… as if… she knows something that I don't.

I don't wonder about it for long, before my exhausted mind begins to shut down as she leads me toward our bedroom.
