Skin against skin, I awoke the next morning in Andreas' arms. My mind felt foggy and it took me a moment to realize what had happened. Shifting my position a little, I was able to look up into Andreas' face. He was already awake and simply smiled down at me.

"Guten Morgen." The words fell out of my mouth and I immediately felt silly.

"Guten Morgen, mein Schatz. Wie geht's?"

"…Satisfied." I smiled and snuggled back into his chest. Andreas chuckled and started to run his fingers up and down my spine.

"We should probably get up and get dressed. I need to be at the studio later today and I'll have to go home and change first."

"Mmm. Too comfy."
"We can stay here a little while longer."

With much hesitation I whispered, "Andreas, maybe you should start keeping some of your things here. You're here so much…"

I felt his heart skip a beat. "Maybe I should."

Pulling myself out of his arms, I straddled his lap and planted a slow kiss on his lips.

"Ich liebe dich, Andreas."

He fidgeted beneath me. "Kirsten…you're gonna make me late…"

"You know they'll understand. Hell, they'll probably congratulate you." I couldn't help but laugh at the mental image.

Andreas eyed me suspiciously.

"What?"

In answer, he abruptly changed our positions so that he was on top, smiling deviously.

It was my turn to feel suspicious. "What's with the look?"

Andreas' teeth nipped at my ear and his hands ran over my belly and across my breasts. A shiver ran down my back as his lips pressed fiercely against my own. His tongue explored my lips and I responded eagerly. My hands sought his hair and I clutched it tightly, pulling him into a deeper kiss. Andreas' growing arousal was apparent as he gracefully separated my thighs with his knee. His right hand left my breast and tantalizing slid down my body.

"Shall we?" He almost purred into my ear.

"You have to ask?"

Andreas was most certainly late.
