She ignored his comment about his door. He made it sound like they had sex in his bed all the time. Even if that were true, Marley didn't want to admit it to herself or to him. Her blue eyes scanned over his taller, muscular form. He was naked from the waist up already.<em>Great. They would get to the fun part even faster</em>. He pulled her into his room before she could answer his question, though she was quite certain the answer was obvious.<br/><br/>His room was supremely clean. For a second she wondered if Eric had organized it for her. Marley's eyebrow raised as she looked around. "Yeah," she answered slowly as he turned on music she didn't recognize.<em>It was 5:30 in the morning, and he was playing music.</em>But this was the kind of lover Eric was. Very affectionate, forthright, and sweet. Sometimes he could be a bit overwhelming, but he was alluring too. She might have been able to deny that if it weren't for one night a year ago, during the Eclipse. Gigi had said the odds of Earth's survival were extremely low that day, but even the air<em>felt</em>different. Something was wrong, off, ending. She had cried, way too much, in front of Eric and then they had sex. Passionate and sensual sex, for hours, unable to hold back.<em>And then she had stayed in his bed.</em>Marley had thought that when she awoke in the morning, Eric would be dead. They<em>all</em>would be dead, except for her and her miraculous powers.<em>And so she had stayed with him.</em><br/><br/>But when she awoke in the morning, tangled in his arms, so did Eric. And she realized that their doomsday calculation had been off<em>and</em>she had let Eric in too deep. She swallowed. "I was hoping we could--" his lips were on hers then. Marley closed her blue eyes and returned the kiss once, twice, his music spinning in her ears. Then she broke their latched mouths, leaning back in his hand to eye him suspiciously. She felt his other hand resting on her behind, steady but slow. "You taste minty," Marley breathed, kissing him a third time. "You brushed your teeth," she concluded after another kiss, pushing their bodies towards his bed. She certainly hadn't done<em>that</em>for him.
