Notes: Still dedicated to Sarah 'cause she did have to ask when they're getting together and they're not quite together yet (despite prior appearances). Betaed by Kyrie. Summary: The morning after, from Chance's POV. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ What the? Jake's in my bed, nose burred in my shoulder, one leg over my hip and we're naked. I dreamed ... but ... could ... "Morning, love." His voice is drowsy ... and content? "Morning." I hear myself answer by reflex. I must still be dreaming. Never made it to the morning before, this could be good; it already feels very good. How could this one be so much more vivid? Does it really matter? He's in my bed and apparently content to stay here. That's all I really need to know for now. "Chance," his voice is a low purr, "as nice as this is, we need to get dressed." "Why?" For the life of me I can't remember where we need to be, even if this was real. "We're due in Feral's office in two hours," he sifts his leg off me and kisses my chest once before rolling out of bed. "We're in enough trouble as is, we don't need to be late on top of it." Oh, that. Now why would he bring that up? It doesn't matter in a dream. "Buddy," he's kneeing in front of me, so tempting to grab and let him drown me in pleasure again. Then his voice gets that cutting edge on it he uses when he's annoyed. "This isn't a dream, you need to get up and we both need a shower." "How?" A strong hand twists it way through my ruff, "we've both been very, very blind, my mate. Too wrapped up in thinking the other couldn't possibly want us to see what was in front of our noses all this time. We have time for this later, right now we need to deal with Feral and see where we're going to be tomorrow." 'Deal with Feral.' I can do that. "Okay, but ..." "No buts, Chance. We have to get ready." He turns and gives me an stunning view of that gorgeous ass, twitching his tail along his spine and turns with a tempting smile before closing the bathroom door. It is not going to be easy to keep my hands off of him. Mechanics? A salvage yard? Jake was quiet the entire time, Feral was enjoying himself and I ... I don't think I've swallowed it yet. This can't be real. Jake loves me, wants me but the price of having him is going to be everything else I've ever dreamed of. Is it worth it? Is being loved worth everything else I've ever wanted, everything I have? He's silent, smart, beautiful and before this my partner in just about everything but sex. Now he's willing to share my bed, but at a high cost. .... Yes, it's worth it. Everything else can be rebuilt or reclaimed in time. He can't be. -- END: Just a Moment (part 4) ... 1/1 by Rauhnee Ranshanka gatekat@transfur.com
