Chapter 10

Debbie scrunched her toes into the carpet of the bedroom. The heels had given her just enough height to not look like a dwarf next to Rafe tonight but dang, that long in them had her feet killing her. She’d hung the dress in the closet before pulling on a pair of boxer shorts and a tank top.

Quiet time cuddling with her Luny sounded amazing. They hadn’t had a lot of time ‘physically’ together with her clinical schedule and him being on nights, but it’d been enough that Debbie knew that she wanted him. Just the thought of him over her pumping into her made her wet.

When she walked out of the bedroom, Rafe was sitting on the couch in shorts and a tight T-shirt with the remote in his hand. She dropped down close and pulled her legs up so she was curled into the arm of the couch with her feet against his thigh.

“Do you want something to drink?” he asked breaking into her thoughts.

“I’m good for now. What’d you find?” Debbie looked to the television and started to laugh. “Seriously? It’s on?” She couldn’t believe that Rafe had foundPrincess Brideon tonight.

“Apparently some think it’s a Christmas movie. Who knew?” He threw the remote on the side table and leaned back to kick his feet onto the coffee table. “Let’s get lost with Princess Buttercup and Wesley.”

“Truuuu wov.”

Pretty soon their time in Florin was about over with Indigo telling Humperdinck he should prepare to die, Buttercup and Wesley were happily together and Fred Savage was asking his grandfather to read the story to him again the next day.

Without any conscious thought, Mooney had moved Debbie’s feet into his lap and had been rubbing them on and off throughout the movie causing her to make the most amazing noises that went right to his dick. How Debbie hadn’t noticed his hard-on, Mooney wasn’t sure. Or she was just being polite and ignoring his condition.

“What a great way to cap off the night. Time for bed?” Debbie got up and stretched. Mooney stood and placed his hands gently on her hips before leaning in for a kiss.

When he pulled back, he whispered, “Thank you for attending with me tonight. The night would have been a nightmare without you. With you, it was a dream come true.”

“You are most welcome. I had a ball, no pun intended.” Debbie started toward the bedroom and then stopped. “Aren’t you coming with me?”

Mooney stood blinking. Not believing what he heard. It must have been his imagination filling in what he wanted to hear. Maybe he’d fallen asleep during the movie and this was a vivid dream?

“Luny? You are not going to spend the night on that small sofa when there is a perfectly good bed in the other room. With me in it?” Debbie looked a bit nervous which wasn’t what Mooney wanted at all. He crossed the room in two steps.

“I would love to sleep in that bed with you. Just know that there is no pressure whatsoever for anything to happen.” Mooney was adamant that Debbie not feel pressured, that she’d be with him because she wanted him.

“But what if I want something to happen?” She pulled him to the bedroom.

“As you wish,” Mooney murmured.

Debbie reached for the top covers as Luny made sure the door to the suite was locked… again. He’d locked and checked it when they first got to the suite. Might be something she’d need to get used to in the long run. The protect and serve instinct was something that had been ingrained in him.

She wasn’t sure when Rafe became Luny in her mind but she was sticking with it. Knowing that she was the only one that called him that special name felt beyond right to her. Something that was just for them.

Luny shut the door between the bedroom and the living area of the suite, stopping at the end of the bed. He looked at the mattress then at the wall then back.

“Umm, any chance you’d mind if I found something on the TV to fall asleep to? You learn to be on edge if things are too quiet.” Luny fidgeted a bit as he asked.

Debbie walked over to him and wrapped her arms around his waist, lying her head on his chest. She held on for a minute or two then with a kiss on his sternum, pulled back.

“I couldn’t care less. I’m getting to share a bed with you for an entire night. You could turn on one of theSawmovies and I wouldn’t care.” When Luny met her gaze with his shocked one, Debbie winked.

“Ha ha, very funny. Pick on the guy with mild PTSD,” he groused as he reached to pull her to him again. “Honestly, I think falling asleep with you in my arms is going to keep any of the monsters away. I’m just used to sleeping with ambient music playing. Started doing that during my first deployment when one of the guys in the barracks snored.” He reached for the remote, clicked on the TV to something quiet and put the remote on the table.

“Let’s get comfortable. Maybe we’ll fall asleep, maybe we won’t.” Debbie climbed into the right side of the bed. She punched the pillow a few times before laying on her side watching Luny. Debbie had kept on her tank and boxers but Luny took off his shirt and she would swear that her mouth dried up instantly. Oh she knew that he had to be in shape but holy hell, his clothes hid a six pack. Getting her hands all over this man was going to happen and soon. She needed to feel those muscles; learn how they twitched under her fingers.

“This okay?” Luny paused at the edge of the bed in just his shorts.

“Get in here with me,” Debbie demanded and she was happy to see that he complied with no hesitation. Once he was in and had shifted to get comfortable, she curled into his side. With her head on his shoulder, she could feel his heartbeat. Debbie couldn’t believe they’d finally made it to a bed together. Every time he’d come to Wilmington Stacy was home and, not that she would mind, but Debbie felt strange having sex with him with Stacy on the other side of the wall. Yes, she’d had guys over before with Stacy home butthiswith Luny wasn’t something she wanted Stacy to overhear. It was too close to Debbie’s heart for her to share their first time with the chance of anyone overhearing.
