Valerie joined in with the nervous laughter and it felt like a weight had been lifted. A weight she hadn’t even really been aware of until it vanished from the pit of her stomach. The gentle reassurance made her heart flutter and though being around Brian made her feel out of control, his words managed to make her gain some all at the same time. “I am too.” She confessed, then cast her eyes towards the ceiling as her shoulders moved along imperceptibly. When she breathed it was gentle. Valerie’s eyes found his again and she couldn’t stop her smile. She couldn’t deny the desire she held for him, in some ways she’d even made peace with it, because it felt so indelible. To resist would lead to madness, she was sure of it.
“I wanted a room like this because…” She paused, frowned slightly and used her fingers to tug him closer. “I don’t need opulence, I never have, but I wanted our first time together to be magical, so we can look back and just remember that we had this, the view, the space, the stars… Untainted by anything else.” She paused, swallowed thickly, and added with a cautious smile. “By anyone else.” Though she knew Brian had obviously had lovers before she had no way to know if any had been in his bed, and she certainly didn’t want to think of it while in it herself. This was common ground, a place to carve memories with each other that would never be smudged. It felt so very important to Valerie, to have something that would stay intact, no matter what. Only for them. “Something just for us.”
The feel of his lips quelled her anxiety and she blinked slowly as he dashed off. It took Valerie a moment to find her legs and she followed him with a grin and accepted the glass feeling ridiculously lucky. Like she’d just won the lottery. Maybe I have, he’s one in a billion. When she raised her glass to toast with him and Brian faltered, she raised her eyebrows and supplied warmly, “New experiences together? And to re-living the ones we like with each other.” Whether it be playing darts, rolling down a hill or simply watching a movie. Valerie didn‘t care as long as it was with him.
She waited a second then took a sip, a surprised little noise escaped her frame and she smiled. “Well that tastes nice…” Valerie captured her lower lip and let her teeth drag across it as she looked up at Brian through her lashes. The glass got placed on the table as she slid her palm up his chest and twisted the material around her fingers to pull him closer. “Just not as nice as you.” She murmured against his lips, then captured them completely.
