It was as if the flood gates opened. He leaned down, his hand on her shoulder, and kissed her lips. It was sweet bliss for him, just as it was the first time they had kissed. It was a sweet, gentle, caring kiss that turned into something more not long after it started. His heart was pounding in his chest.<br/><br/>He kissed her again, this time with even more fervor and meaning,  and then lifted the covers as she had asked.
