Instead, it flopped down on the bed next to me, purring and rubbing its head against my hand.

“I’m glad you like me, but you should go. Not for young kitten’s eyes, you know?” I pushed again and this time it rolled to catch my hand, but fell on the floor.

Before I could even move, it was back up, rubbing its kitty face in mine.

“Look, cat,” I whispered, “I’m going to have to firmly ask you to leave.”

“Mrrrreeeooowww,” it said, ignoring my insistence.

“Having a nice conversation?” Theo asked, amused.

“It’s pretty one-sided, but very enlightening.” I rolled onto my back, both to look at Theo and to avoid the cat butt that was directed at my face. “We’re just getting to know each other. I’d say we’re besties now, me and…”

“Gus,” Theo supplied.

“Right. I guess I should know my new bestie’s name. I never thought of you as a cat person.”

“I’m not.”

“Why’d you get him then?”

“Luc was heading over here and saw Gus run across the street. He stopped and called me, insisting I come help on his rescue mission. I did, but only to humor him.” Theo rubbed his fingers on the top of Gus’ head, making his ears flatten out to the sides. “After an intense hunt that included a showdown with a skunk, we got him. And, lucky for him, he’s been with me since.”

“And lucky forbothof you, since he’s so cute.” Gus climbed onto my chest and tried to shove his head inside my mouth as I spoke. “I’m apparently popular with cats. Who knew?”

“It’s because he knows you don’t want him around right now. If you act interested, he’ll bolt. Try it.”

I made the clicky noise with my tongue, reaching out to scratch his kitty ears. Less than a minute later, Gus was running from the room, bored of me.

“Wow, I’m wounded.” I put my hand to my heart. “I thought we had a real connection.”

“Yeah, Gus is a heartbreaker like that. If it’s any consolation,” Theo started, moving so he was on top of me. I wrapped my legs around him as he dipped his head near my ear to whisper, “How about a different kind of connection?” He pushed forward, his cock sliding against me.

I tipped my pelvis up, waiting and ready. Theo had other ideas, though.

Moving down, he skipped any teasing or buildup. His teeth, tongue, and fingers worked me hard, waking up every nerve ending in my whole body with an intense orgasm. Before I’d finished even coming, his cock replaced his mouth and fingers, slamming into my wetness and sending another orgasm rippling through me.

It was amuchbetter wake-up than coffee.

Two days.

I’d had two days of sun, sleep, and sex.

And my body felt all three.

I was languid, but not exhausted. Sore, but not in pain.

It was an amazing feeling.

Adjusting the ridiculously giant floppy hat, I stretched in the hammock chair and picked my book off the floor where it’d landed when I dozed off.

Guess it’s good Theo got me this flying saucer of a hat. At least now I won’t be burned.

Hopefully.

After our morning sex a couple days before, we’d gone downstairs for breakfast only to find the entryway filled with boxes and bags. Theo had said if he was getting me to himself for a week, he wanted to make sure I had everything I needed.
