Second Chances

Sleeping With You In A Dream

Abby and I stumbled into her apartment, laughing as we fell through her front door. She turned towards me, smirking as she grabbed my hands, and led me into her apartment. With my hand still in hers, she turned on her heel and walked down the hallway to her bedroom.

Before she could open the door, I spun her around and pressed her up against it, instantly pressing my lips to hers. She giggled into the kiss as she wrapped her arms around my neck. I bit her bottom lip, slipping my tongue into her mouth when she gasped.

"Oh, Zac," she moaned as I started kissing her neck. She tilted her head back, giving me better access as she pressed her body closer to mine.

In a matter of minutes, our clothes were scattered around her bedroom, our bodies were tucked under her covers, and our movements had fallen in sync. The feeling I had being with Abby was unlike anything I've ever felt.

In my other life, whenever I've slept with someone, it was purely hormonal. But it wasn't with Abby. It seemed so much deeper than that. Every sound I made her make, became my favorite sound. I wanted to hear these sounds come out of her every night.

The idea of not being the one to make her feel this way infuriated me. The idea of not being able to go to sleep next to her, wake up next to her, constantly be with her, destroyed me.

"Zac," she gasped.

I slowed my movements as I looked into her eyes. We were both breathing hard as we took in what we were about to do. I resisted the urge to look at her bare body under me. Instead, I stared deeply into her eyes.

"I love you, Abby."

She smiled as she reached up and wrapped her arms around my neck, pulling me down to her.

"I love you, Zac," she whispered with a small giggle.

I leaned down and pressed my lips back to hers. As we made love, I had trouble focusing on her underneath me. I bounced back and forth between my lives.

Before I knew it, I could feel ourselves close to finishing. I forced myself to focus on Abby's moans as we finished.

We moaned in sync as I rolled off of her. She let out a satisfied sigh as she cuddled into my chest. I grabbed the blanket and fixed it so it was covering us.

"I promise," I said under my breath as I tighten my arms around her, "I will never leave you."

"Zac," she sighed, slightly rubbing her hand on my chest. "I know you'll never leave me."

I closed my eyes, pulling her closer to my side. I reached up and ran my fingers through her hair.

"I just. . . I don't want. . . I can't lose you."

Abby sat up, slightly leaning over me. "Zac," she said gently yet sternly. "I don't know why you are having these crazy dreams, but please stop thinking you left me and forgot who I was. Stop thinking you're going to lose me. I'm right here and I love you. I'm not going anywhere."

I grabbed her hips and rolled her over so she was on top of me. I put my hand on the back of her neck and crashed her lips down to mine. She let out a small giggle as our lips moved roughly against each other, our bodies falling back in sync.

I looked over to see Abby asleep. I smiled as I reached up and gently tucked a piece of hair behind her ear.

I held my breath as she slowly rolled over, starting to wake up. I watched as her eyes fluttered open. After her eyes met mine, her lips spread into a smile.

"Morning," she said, giggling softly. I opened my mouth, ready to say something when everything started to fade.
