She tells you what you already know

“… I feel the same way about you!!!” Melody responds. Tears of joy fall from her eyes. In the seven years you’ve known her, she has never looked more beautiful. You kiss her forehead. Her fever has gone down, but her body is still warm, most likely from being under the covers with you.

“I know!” You reply as you kiss her. This time, Melody’s tongue slips into your mouth. The kiss is hot and passionate. You have both finally shared your innermost feelings for each other and it feels incredible.

“How do you know?” She asks as she breaks the kiss.

“I was tutoring Meghan in her room when you IM’d her. She described our little incident earlier today, and I felt that there was too much coincidence to not peak at the screen. I looked at the IM and I flipped when I saw your screen name. She had no idea that you and I even knew each other. She understood and told me I belong here with you, so I left.” You reply.

“Did you two…you know… get it on?” Melody asks. She looks a little nervous, hoping your answer is not what she thinks it is.

“No we didn’t. I had a feeling that she wanted to, but you interrupted at just the right time! A few more minutes and I think we would have been fucking like rabbits.” You tell her. “I wouldn’t lie about that Melody!”

“I know. You’re not like any other I guy I’ve been with. I’ve known you long enough to know that you don’t lie. That’s one of the things I love about you! You’re so honest about everything!!!” She smiles as you share another kiss. This kiss beats all the others. The intensity of it drives you to keep kissing her. Your tongues take turns exploring each others mouths. Time seems to move slowly. You want nothing more than to enter her and make love right here, right now, but you know that she is not completely recovered. Kissing Melody will have to suffice. For now.

“I can’t believe the way this weekend is going. Yesterday afternoon, I thought I was an inch away from being asked to marry someone. Then I get completely devastated and embarrassed by that prick. Then I go and get myself sick. Now, I’m lying in my best friend’s bed, half-naked and kissing the man of my dreams. How can this weekend get any more bizarre?” She says as you draw her in for another kiss. After what feels like an hour, you feel exhaustion setting in again. You catch yourself almost nodding off several times while kissing Melody. Finally it gets to the point where you can no longer stay awake.

“I’m sorry to cut things off sweetie, but I can’t keep my eyes open anymore. I love you, but I need to get some sleep!” You tell her.

“Get some sleep, my love! You’re going to need all the energy you can muster tomorrow!” She says as she starts to slip out of the bed. You quickly grab her by the arm.

“You don’t have to go!” You tell her.

“There’s not enough room for both of us in one bed!” She sulks. She would love nothing more than to sleep with you right now, but the beds in your apartment aren’t all that comfortable with two people in them. With all the energy you have left, you hop out of bed and push your bed over to hers. She looks on with amazement as you line the two beds up perfectly. You crash down on top of your new set up. Melody crawls in and snuggles into you like she had done before.

“I love YOU Jack!!!” She says.

“And I love YOU Melody!!!” You reply. You share one last kiss and then you both fall into a deep sleep while wrapped up in each other’s arms.
