“Hold on, baby. It’s all good. Hold on. Okay, now! Let go, baby, let go,” he said, kissing her again.

Her tiny body shuddered beneath him, her legs tightening and shaking as the spasms of joy and satisfaction flowed from her. Releasing on his fingers, she watched as Flip licked each one, smiling down at her. His own rigid cock pressed against her soft hip, and she turned to touch him once more.

“I want you inside me, Flip. I think I was made for you and only you,” she said innocently.

“I think you were too, baby, but it’s going to hurt. So just tell me to stop when you need me to, okay?” She nodded and smiled up at him as he positioned himself between her thighs, pushing her hips wider apart to accommodate his big body.

Nat felt the hot tip of his cock touch her opening as he leaned forward, his weight resting on his elbows. It felt like he was trying to shove a baseball bat inside her, but she controlled her breathing and opened wider. To her surprise, both of those things helped. She raised both knees high and relaxed her pelvis, focusing on the rich chocolate of his eyes, the love seeping into her soul, his gentleness surrounding her.

She could tell that Flip was using every ounce of control in his body to ensure she wasn’t hurt any more than necessary. He kissed her tenderly, brushing her hair as he did, feeling his way inside her.

“Flip? Ahhhh…”

“Am I hurting you, baby?” he asked sweetly.

“Yes, but we both know it won’t hurt for long,” she smiled. “I know what to expect, Flip. I understand how this is supposed to work. I’m a virgin, but I’m not naïve.”

“Why?” he asked. Nat looked up at him, puzzled. “Why am I the first? Why me?” He continued to move in and out gently while he distracted her.

“You know why,” she said quietly, kissing his lips, tugging on the bottom lip with her teeth. He pushed further inside, needing to feel her. “We were made for each other, Flip. I didn’t know what I was waiting for, but I knew it was someone special. Someone just for me.”

Flip couldn’t control his body any longer. Lord knows he tried, but his need was so great, so strong, he had to feel Nat surrounding him. As if reading his mind, she nodded, and Flip pushed forward with all his might, stretching her walls to surround him, to fit him, to make her his own.

Nat gasped at the sudden stab of pain, her body stretching completely beyond what she believed were her limits. She waited for air to return to her lungs and the burning to subside. Flip laid his forehead against hers, remaining perfectly still, ragged breaths escaping his body.

“I’m sorry, baby. I needed to do that,” he whispered. He pressed gentle kisses along her forehead, her cheeks, her neck, trailing to her lips.

“You are a strange man, Flip,” she chuckled. “I know you didn’t want to hurt me. I also understand biology and know you had to. Just let me catch my breath,” she said, kissing him.

With each kiss, the pain and burning subsided, and her need rose to a feverish pitch. Before she knew what she was doing, Nat was moving against him, her legs wrapped around his waist, her ankles barely linked around his big body as she thrust her hips upward to meet his movements.

Flip moved his hips in time with her, every inch of him filling her. He fit. Every inch fit. She was made for him, perfectly, sweetly, abso-fucking-lutely made for him. Her breasts rubbed against his chest, her nipples hard and pink. He unlinked her ankles, pushing her left thigh higher, and dove deeper to her surprised gasp.

“Flip! Oh wow… I’m…”

“Go, baby, please go,” he pleaded.

Fucking hell, he needed her to come so he could blow. Before he could think, she let out a cry of relief, and he followed just in time to realize he hadn’t used a condom. The sweet ecstasy of his relief made him lose all sense of responsibility.

“Wow,” she panted, “I mean… wow! That was… wow! I mean, is it just me or was that like really… wow!” Flip chuckled, looking down at her flush face.

“No, baby, that was like really wow. I mean, super wow. However,” he said seriously, “we didn’t use a condom.”

“Oh shit! I totally forgot about that,” she said, grinning and then breaking into a soft, innocently sweet giggle, covering her mouth with her hand.

“Why are you grinning?” he smiled.

“I don’t know. I mean, a baby,” she smiled up at him, stroking his face. “A baby that looks like you and me. A boy with dark hair and blue eyes. Big like his daddy…”

Flip had a serious look on his face at first, then a smile spread from ear to ear. She was thinking of the future. She was thinking of them together repeatedly, and if that didn’t just make his fucking heart explode.

“A baby,” he smiled. “That would be interesting. But if there are to be babies, we will get married, Nat. I want my children born to the woman I’m married to.”

Nat stopped and looked up at him and then at the tent side. She had never thought of children before, or a husband, for that matter. She didn’t think it was possible for her. But here she was with Flip, her soulmate. She was sure of it.

“Nat?”

“I’m just thinking. All the things I thought I could never have, they’re literally within my grasp.” She let her fingers glide down his face, feeling the rough whiskers of the day.
