her fingers caressed his hair, laughter bubbling up so that her muscles clenched around him intimately. "well, not tonight. tonight you are somehow going to figure out how to get me from here to the jacuzzi without both of us falling in a heap on the floor."

"we are already on the floor. in any case, it would require me removing my body from yours, and i think i have found a home. you are the hottest thing on the face of the earth. i am staying right where i am."

"lazy man. i promise to make love to you all night, but if i don't get into some soothing water, i might not be able to keep that promise. we were a bit on the vigorous side." for a moment she held his head to her breast, allowing waves of pleasure to wash over her. she felt cocooned in sensual delight.

"don't listen." she wrapped her arms around his neck when he scooped her up to cradle her against his chest. "i can't move. i may not ever again."
