Never Let Go

Chapter 74: Everlasting Love

I place Michael's breakfast in front of him and his bambi eyes gaze up at me. He shows a sweet, infectious smile, looking all cute with his messy bed hair.

"Thank you." He said softly as he wraps his arm around me, pulling me in for a hug.

"You don't have to thank me." I hold his head against my chest and stroke my hand through his tangled curls. "You've been looking after me, so it's the least I could do. And I would like to treat my man sometimes too, you know?" I smirk.

"Mmm." He smiles and bites his lip as he strokes his hand up the back of my leg.

All I have on is his red shirt which is half hanging off me and my panties. He rubs my bum and grabs my butt cheek which makes me giggle.

"I'm not complaining. I've got a sexy lady living with me and cooking me breakfast half naked. What more could I want?"

I show an embarrassed smile and roll my eyes before giving him a peck on the lips.

"Eat up before it gets cold."

"I think I'd rather eat you." He growls before pulling me on to his lap.

"Michael!" I squeal, wrapping my arms around his neck.

He smirks and holds me tightly as he kisses into my neck.

"You better not let it go to waste after all the time and effort I spent on making it!" I laugh.

"Ok, ok..." He mumbles and smiles against my skin, kissing his way to my lips.

He kisses me slowly and gently strokes his hand through my hair. Our lips part and we gaze at each other silently. He continues to stroke my hair before moving his finger tips to my cheek, lightly stroking the bone structure of my face.

"I know it's only been a week, but I've loved having you here. I like being able to share every day with you. Every morning when I wake up, you're the first thing I see, and I feel like the luckiest man alive."

The biggest smile breaks out on my face and I let out a soft laugh as I look away from his stare.

"So, I haven't annoyed you yet?"

"No. I mean, apart from being a bit of a bed hogger, you're not too bad." He grins.

I raise my eyebrows and scoff.

"You're the bed hogger! I'm not the one who turns into a starfish half way through the night."

"Oh, really? Ok." He chuckles and rolls his eyes.

"Actually, you're more like an octopus. When I wake up you're tangled around me. It's cute until I get really hot, but I don't mind. I could definitely get used to it."

"I'm tangled around you because I'm on the edge of the bed and I'm desperately trying to hold on and not fall off." He laughs.

"Right, whatever." I roll my eyes and laugh with him.

"Whatever." He mocks me and gives me a playful look before kissing my lips.

"You can't mock me and then kiss me like that."

"No?" He smirks.

"No."

"But, I just did."

I laugh softly and shake my head, trying to be all serious as I squint my eyes at him.

"You're cute." He bites his lip.

"You're annoying."

He opens his mouth and pretends to look shocked before pouting his lips. I giggle and stroke through his hair.
