I stirred around the bed to try and find a comfortable position. Without opening, my eyes I wrapped my arms around the naked body of the girl beside me and scooted closer so our skin touched, causing my skin to tingle with warmth radiating from the gorgeous girl laying beside me. With her back turned to me, I sighed and nuzzled my nose on her bare shoulder, placing soft little kisses occasionally. Cold wind blew from the window causing goosebumps to appear on my skin as I shiver from the cold air that hit my bare skin. I tightened my arms around her to warm myself up.

Beautiful brown tresses lay across the pillows making my brown-eyed girlfriend look even more beautiful in my eyes. Her hair was tousled messily across the bed, even some strands of hair fall on her face as she breathed evenly, indicating that she was still peacefully asleep. I finally opened my eyes and placed my slightly chapped lips on her shoulder, leaving sweet kisses once more.

I slowly and gently removed my arms around her body and sat up, covering my chest with the covers to prevent them from being exposed. Smiling as I remember the passionate love making that took place last night, I looked over my shoulder to admire Camila's toned back. The singer shuffled a bit and then turned to lay on her back.

Minutes later, her hand started to feel around the bed while she was still asleep. It was as if she was trying to reach for something. I stared at her moving hand with confusion before I got an idea. Tentatively, I reached out my hand for her to reach. I silently waited if she would do something. Then her hands reached and gripped my hand gently while she was asleep. Fuck, that is so cute.

I lifted her hand up to my lips and planted multiple kisses from the back of her hand to her palm.

Camila soon opened her eyes and looked around the room with a cute confused look on her face. I cooed as she rubbed her eyes and yawned. I smiled at the brunette before plopping back down on the bed. Camila turned to me finally remembering the events that transpired the night before. She then straddled me without saying a word causing an my skin to tingle at her electrifying touch. Camila smile down at me and cupped my cheeks.

"Thank you for last night." She whispered with her raspy morning voice. I shook my head and waved her off, "What are you even thanking me for?" Confusion was evident by the tone of my voice. "You always make me feel loved and for that, I'm grateful." Camila clarified, making my lips curl up in a small comforting smile. "You're my girlfriend, of course I'll let you know that I love you every second that I can. It's my job."

"Hmm... You did make me feel really loved last night." Camila smirked seductively, causing heat to rush to my face at what she was implying. Her index finger trailed up and down on my forearm softly while staring at me sweetly. Goosebumps appeared on my skin as our skin made contact causing a shiver to run down my body.

She looked at me with her doe eyes, a playful innocent glint in her eyes but the smirk playing on her lips says so otherwise. Finally regaining my confidence, I chuckled and leaned closer so that our faces were mere centimeters apart. Her eyes stared into mine before her gaze fell to my lips. "It was my pleasure." I breathed as our lips brushed against each other but neither of us dared to connect our lips, yet.

However it didn't last very long when I couldn't help but connect our lips. The kiss started out sweet and gentle at first but then became more heated. I deepened the kiss and moved one hand to her waist.

After a few minutes of kissing, I pulled away and started to trail sweet kisses on her jaw, causing her to giggle. I playfully bit her on the underside of her jaw gently. The girl smiled sweetly at me. "I didn't take advantage of you last night did I?" I asked her doubtfully. Camila's eyes widened and she shook her head instantly, "No baby! Why would you think that?" She lifted my head up by my chin gently so that I gazed into her eyes. "It's just that- I didn't imagine that our first time would happen like that. Well I mean, it isn't really our first time but the first time in years-"

          

Camila cut me off by placing her index finger on my lips. She held a stern expression on her face as she asked me, "Do you regret it?" I gazed at her incredulously, silently asking if she was serious or not. "What? Of course not!" Camila sighed in relief when she heard my response. "Then what's the problem? We both wanted it. I don't think we rushed it because I think that any time or day is perfect with you."

"Last night was perfect." I admitted.

I looked down and bit my lip as I listen to her say, "I'm not fragile. Sure, being taken advantage of by Austin was terrifying to me but it's not something that I can't get over. Especially now that you're here to help me get through this." I felt her lips place a lingering kiss on my forehead. "Fuck, you're so sweet and perfect. Why would anyone want to do those horrible things to you?" Tears started flowing from my eyes.

"I don't know baby, I don't know." Camila hummed comfortingly as I silently sobbed on her chest. "I don't know why I'm crying," I laughed humorlessly through my tears. "I just love you so much that thought of you getting damaged by the people that was supposed to care about you scares me." My voice cracked with raw emotion. Camila sent me a small worried smile as I continue to sob helplessly.

"That just means that they never truly cared about me, baby. And I swear if something similar happens to you, I will literally kill them." Camila tried holding a serious expression on her face but failed miserably and ended up laughing loudly instead because the thought of herself trying to fight somebody is funny to her. "Camz, you wouldn't even hurt a fly. Are you even capable of beating up somebody?"

"If it's for you, then yes I am capable of beating up somebody's ass." Camila smirked, playfully flexing her toned arms in front of me causing me giggle at her silliness. "Hey! Stop laughing at me! I just said that I will kill anybody that tries to hurt you and here you are laughing at me!" My girlfriend pouted, crossing her arms. I laughed once more and wiped the tears from my eyes. "Haha, I swear I'm not laughing at you babe. Thank you so much Camzi." I rubbed our noses against each other and Camila giggled as she grinned from ear to ear. "I love you."

"I love you too." Camila answered, planting a chaste kiss on my lips.

I grinned from ear to ear as I snuggle against her neck but quickly pulled away when she winced at the contact. My eyes held worry and confusion in them as I ask her, "What's wrong Camz? Did I hurt you?"

Camila shook her head and pointed at the purple bruises on her arms and shoulder. My eyes suddenly darken at the thought of Austin laying a finger on Camila. "Look at what he did to you." I hissed through gritted teeth. I gently traced the purple bruises on her shoulder and arms. "Calm down, Lolo." Camila tried calming me down as her warm hand were on my waist, occasionally rubbing her thumb on my hipbone.

"They will heal. They're just bruises Lolo." Camila said to me but her face contorted in pain as I placed my finger on her bruises too hard causing me to frown and pull away quickly feeling bad that I hurt her. "I'm just happy that bastard is in jail." I say as I turn to lay on my back. "Trust me, I am too. We wont be seeing him for a few years and I doubt that he will try anything again, especially with the beating that he got from you." Camila laughed heartily. I smirked feeling proud of myself.

"I swear I could've killed him if ?Ally didn't stop me." I muttered, feeling aggravated. "Calm down, Tiger." Camila teased and poked my ribs causing me flinch at the the tickling sensation. I sat up again, smiling down at my girlfriend before standing up and taking an over-sized shirt from the floor and wore it. I bent down to grab another shirt and tossed it to Camila. She quickly puts it over her head before standing up.

"Come, let's put ice over your bruises." I say, interlacing our fingers together as I lead her to the kitchen counter. I lifted her up so that she sat on the counter then I opened the freezer to get some ice. I press the cold object on her shoulder. She flinched at the cold feeling and soon relaxed. We continue to do this for a few minutes while we talked animatedly.
