added to another incredible love making session in the bedroom before we both drifted off to sleep.
As I lay there in that moment between being asleep and being awake, I thought about him and how I had begun to feel at the thought that we may not meet again after this holiday. Call me crazy, call me ridiculous, but I knew my heart and my heart had fallen hard and fast.
I opened my eyes finally and turned over to face him. He was asleep with his long eyelashes resting on his tanned cheeks, stubble had begun to pierce through his skin and I don’t know why or if it was possible, but it made him look insatiable in the soft golden glow of the room as the sun started to set.
I watched him as he slept, not quite believing that he was there, let alone real and had given me the best sex I had ever had. At least I knew now that it wasn’t me, that it was a failure on Kevin’s part and he obviously hadn’t a clue. I decided that was the last thought I would allow Kevin to have, that he was a terrible lover. I had Alec now and however long or short that may have been, I couldn’t give him all of me if half was still wallowing over someone who, evidently, could not care less about me.
I jumped awake when my phone rang out, I immediately checked on Alec and he was still sleeping, so I stopped my phone from ringing and ran into the bathroom pulling my loose shirt over my naked body,
“Hello?” I whispered loudly.
“Grace, its Saff,” she said, I could hear music in the back ground. “I thought you were going to phone me last night.”
“Sorry, we uh, we ended up staying San Diego after going to Sea World.” I explained quietly.
“And?”
“And, wow,” I smiled. “He is amazing, Saff, you’d really like him.”
“So, did he make you see stars?”
“Stars, the moon, galaxies, fireworks…”
“Agghh! Oh My God! Finally,” she screamed into my ear. “Where is he?”
“Sleeping.”
“You have worn him out.”
“Yes I have,” I smiled proudly. “Saff, I think I’m in trouble.”
“Great, now you are going to tell me he is under age, your new man is actually a toy boy.”
“No, I think I am falling for him, in a big way. What if…?”
“Sod the what if’s, just enjoy it, Grace, you deserve to smile.” The bathroom door opened and Alec frowned at the light.
“Sorry, I didn’t mean to wake you,” I said.
“It’s almost three, who is it?” he asked.
“My friend, Saffron.” With that he took the phone from me.
“Hello, Saffron, this is Alec,” he smiled. “It’s nice to ‘sort of ‘meet you too. Your friend here is an amazing girl and I can assure you that she is not in any trouble at all.” He heard me, my face began to burn, I buried it in my hands, how could I look him in the eye now? “Yes, I don’t doubt that you are telling the truth, but I can guarantee you that we will meet when I get back to London, because in all honesty, I am falling for her too.” I looked up from my hands, he smiled warmly, “Thank you, and uh, goodnight, Saffron, it was nice talk to you.” He handed the phone back to me and left me standing in the bathroom, dumbfounded.
“Oh my God, Grace, he sounds so charming, I am bursting for you here, really bursting.”
“Thank you. I had better go, I’ll call you in a couple of days.”
“Make sure you take lots of pictures,
