She nestles herself closer against you, feeling warmth spread through her body at your words. "Thank you," she whispers back, still catching her breath. "I never thought... I mean, I knew we had chemistry, but..." Her voice trails off as she leans in to press a gentle kiss against your jaw.

You wrap your arms around her, holding her close as you both lie there together, spent but content.

Her fingers idly trace patterns over your chest, feeling the steady beat of your heart beneath her touch. She doesn't want this moment to end; she never wants to be apart from you again. As she lays here, her eyes drift shut, and for a brief moment, she allows herself to imagine a future where you're always by her side. Where these nights are just the beginning of something truly incredible.
