"You're sure about this?" Derek panted, his eyes searching hers as he kept her gently pinned against the wall, face not even an inch from hers. Alice nodded slowly, biting her lip. Truth be told, she'd never been this sure about anything. He looked into her eyes a few more seconds, carefully observing her, making sure she was really ready. He slowly leaned in, closing the small gap between them as his lips once again crashed into her. She returned the kiss hungrily, gently tugging on his bottom lip with her teeth. His hands explored her frame slowly, as if trying to memorize every inch, every curve of her body. Her hands were busying themselves with his tie and tossing it across the room. He quickly removed his blazer, not once removing his lips from hers. As her hands began to unbutton the shirt underneath, he lifted her up and she instinctively wrapped her legs around him, allowing him to carry her to the bed. He laid her down, removing the now unbuttoned shirt and helping her out of her jeans. She felt his hands explore her again, and the next thing she knew, they were both undressed, him on top of her. She knew what came next, and his eyes met hers before he continued, as if being sure she was really ready. She bit her lip, her hands still locked around his neck as she pulled him back down to her in answer. She moaned in pleasure and he bit her neck gently as her fingernails dug into his shoulder blades. His mouth and teeth now took the place of hands, exploring her body with the same curiousity, as if he wanted to memorize the taste of her skin. Alice's mind began emptying itself of every coherent thought as she let out multiple moans and sighs of "Derek". She couldn't think of anything else but the person who was making her mind go blank. By the time they were done, it was the early hours of the morning, and they both lay there, exhausted and panting. Her eyes meet his, and they both smile at eachother as he pulls and blankets over the two of them, wrapping his arms around her as she burrows into his chest. Before falling asleep, the last thought in both their minds in how perfect everything had turned out. When he thought she had fallen asleep, Derek smiled down and Alice, murmuring a very soft, yet meaningful, "I love you." as he planted a soft kiss on her head. Alice smiled as he drifted to sleep, waiting until he was completely out to respond. "I love you, too."
