“Oh, yeah, I missed you, Sma
rty.” He breathes against my neck.
I throw my head back and laugh. “I missed you too, Levi.”
I sit up, that way Levi could go clean up. My legs are still shaking from the pleasure that I just experienced. Every time I have sex with Levi, it feels like the first time all over again.
When he is done, I go into the bathroom to straighten myself up too. I hear the doorbell, and then Levi talking to someone.
“Smarty, the pizza is here,” he announces.
“Coming,” I yell back.
“I thought I already took care of that.”
I don’t answer him back, I just roll my eyes. He thinks about sex all the time. What am I thinking? I think about sex all the time now that Levi is gone more.
I go into the kitchen, and my stomach growls for the pizza. Levi fixes my plate for me, while I grab a couple beers. I sit next to him as we gobble our food. Levi tells me that practice is going great. The line that he is on is number one in the AHL right now. Levi has been racking up the points, and I’m so proud of him. We finish off the pizza, well Levi finishes it off, and then we clean up the kitchen.
Levi suggests watching a movie on Netflix, and we curl up on the couch. When the movie starts, I realize that my time is limited with him.
“What time do you leave in the morning?”
“I won’t leave till around noon. I thought we could sleep in a bit before I have to head back to PA.”
I smile. I have a little bit longer with him.
Chapter Six
Levi
Within twenty minutes of starting the movie, Smarty seems heavier in my arms, like she’s falling asleep.
“Presley?” I say softly. If she is asleep, part of me doesn’t want to wake her, but then again, I have to leave tomorrow.
“Mmm,” she hums as she lifts her head. Her eyes are half closed. “Sorry, Levi. I didn’t realize how tired I was.”
“It’s okay. Go to sleep, Smarty. I’ll be here in the morning.”
She smiles, kisses me, and lays her head down once more. “When I wake up, I want you in bed with me. Not just here in the apartment. Deal?”
“Deal.” I press my lips to the top of her head, and then watch the rest of the movie by myself. When it ends, I lock the door, turn off the TV, and then carry Presley to bed. She’s out like a light and doesn’t even stir. I get in next to her after changing, and she’s already hogging most of the covers. But I could care less. Smarty cuddles up to me, so I wrap my arms around her. She’s all the warmth I need tonight.

When I open my eyes, I see Presley’s perfect brown ones staring at me. Her lips lift a little in a smile and her red hair is a pure mess, but she’s absolutely beautiful. This is how I want to wake up every morning. It doesn’t matter where we are or what’s going on in our lives, as long as Presley is next to me when I wake up, I’ll be happy.
“Don’t you know that it’s creepy to watch people sleep?” I ask her.
Her smile widens. “But you just look so adorable.” She laughs as if she’s hilarious, and I can’t help chuckling.
“It’s creepy. Instead of watching me, you should have woken me up.” I dip my head to the crook of her neck, flicking my tongue over her skin. She inhales sharply, her hand latching onto my arm with her nails digging into my skin. “Don’t you agree?” I whisper into her ear.
“Eh, you were cuter when you were sleeping.”
I pull back to look at her, causing her to laugh. “No hot, morning sex for you then.” When I roll away, she grabs my arm and pulls me back to her.
“You aren’t going anywhere.”
