Just A Woman (Marina: Part Two: Naughty Nookie Series) - Plot & Excerpts
I crawled out of bed the instant the outer door of my suite snapped to a close and was in Nate’s room as soon as I could figure out which one belonged to him. Three doors down, I slinked inside. Shocked at the darkness, I realized he might take my tardiness as defiance rather than just being lost and I stumbled my way to the bed. I found it, felt for the covers with my hands and managed to climb in without too much damage to my shins. I must have looked like Marley’s ghost, hands outspread wandering through the pitch black, but unless Nate has night-vision goggles, he didn’t see my impression of a ghoul. And now, I lie here knowing he’s awake but not saying anything. It’s good to be back in a bed with him. Had things been okay with us at the hospital, when he’d been better, I’d have spent a lot of time sharing a mattress with him. It’s always like that with us. We might have spent months apart, but we’re glued together the instant we’re in each other’s company. So the two feet of space between us is odd. But welcome. I’d like nothing more than to cuddle up against him, even though with any other guy, I’m no cuddler. I want to sleep skin to skin, press my back to his chest, have his back to mine. The distance puts me on edge but is a necessary evil. I’m here. Something that’s a miracle in itself.
