Chapter 242 - Lets be selfish (1) (1/2)

JoAnna woke up and could not stretch her body as usual. Actually, she could not move much. It took her a second to realize that she is in the guest bedroom, in Jeff's embrace.

”Good morning, Anna”, his deep voice greeted her.

Her head turned to the source of the voice and their noses almost touched. 'Too close!'

She inhaled. ”Good morning...” JoAnna glanced at his lips and then at his eyes. She felt a strong force pulling her towards him, wanting to kiss. Oh, how she wanted that kiss...

JoAnna1: 'No, no, no... he is spoken for. Until he settles that I need to stay away.'

JoAnna2: 'Stupid! If you want to stay away, why are you climbing into his bed?'

JoAnna3: 'This is too much... I give up...'

JoAnna exhaled. ”Can you let go of me?”

”Do I have to?”

'When did you become this shameless?' JoAnna wants to be stern, but left side of her lip curved up, betraying her. ”Well... eventually we need to get out of the bed.”

”Eventually...” He slightly nodded and their noses touched. ”Let me be selfish today.”

She inhaled his breath. ”Only if you let me adjust my position.”

He loosened his grip on her, and JoAnna slid lower, leaning her head on his chest. 'This is safer.' She exhaled and listened to his heartbeat. Her hand was resting on his abdomen just above edge of the blanket. JoAnna could feel his muscles tensing under the thin fabric of his t-shirt as her fingers moved. Her gaze moved lower and landed on a blanket-tent that formed above his crotch. She suppressed laughter when she remembered how last night, he said that it has mind of its own... and he said that he will be a gentleman... and she believes him. JoAnna felt his fingers running through her hair. She closed her eyes enjoying the feeling of his touch, and sighed.

His hand stopped moving. ”What are you thinking?”

”You are not the only one who wants to be selfish.” Hand that was on his abdomen moved around his waist and she pulled her body closer to his.

Jeff felt her body sticking to his, and only thin fabric of pajamas separated them. A low grunt escaped him. ”Today, let's be selfish together.”

JoAnna didn't see his face, but she could tell that he is smiling.

After some time, she spoke. ”Jeff?” She felt his body twitch and looked up at him. ”Are you OK?”

”Yes.” He was smiling. ”This is the first time you called my name.”

”Really? No way... ” She shook her head in disbelief. ”I'm sure I called you at least few times.”

”Yes, you called me 412” He tapped her nose playfully. ”Say it again.”

”412?”

'She is teasing me again...' He grimaced for a second and then smiled. ”No, not that... my name.”

”Jeff.” JoAnna responded.

He demanded more. ”My full name.” He leaned toward her and his breath brushed her cheek.

”Jeffrey” She whispered. 'Too close, again...'
