"I will prove I am clean and you will do the same then I am going to come in you" tossing two condoms on the bed.
My legs shivering as he moved closer, the moment thickening between us.
My god he is beautiful despite the few faded scars on his chest, his soft dark hairs making it unnoticeable but I had nothing to cover my scars.
"Are you prepared?" closing the gap between us.
I shook my head wildly mapping the hair over my face.
