"No matter what shit is going on in the world, this is a peak of happiness for me," I muttered to myself, staring down at Mia's sleeping face.
We went at it for several hours, an achievement someone my age should be proud of, especially when considering how tired I was beforehand. And now, once neither of us had any strength in us to continue, we simply laid down on the bed, enjoying each other's company.
"You were saying something?" Mia mumbled through her sleep, always ready to respond to me. She rubbed her chin against my chest as she slowly pried her eyes open. "How long was I...?" she then asked, cutely blinking her eyes as she attempted to chase off her drowsiness.
"Just a short while," I replied, gently moving my hand up and down Mia's back.
I immersed myself in the feeling of my fingers gently running up and down Mia's spine. Her skin softly bent under my touch, turning this little caress into an unspoken massage.
