Chapter 5: Morning After Addiction

Sunlight slipped through the thin curtains in dusty gold streaks, painting faint lines across the pull-out couch and the tangle of bare limbs beneath the blanket. I woke slowly, the kind of half-dream haze that made everything feel suspended. Sophie was still pressed against me, her naked body molded to mine like she’d never left. Her back fit perfectly into the curve of my chest, one leg hooked over mine, skin warm and slightly tacky from the sweat and release of last night. The faint, unmistakable musk of sex lingered in the air—salt and something sweeter, unmistakable even in the morning light. My cock, already stirring, twitched against the cleft of her ass, half-hard and nestled right where I’d spilled deep inside her hours earlier.

She stirred first, a soft sigh escaping as she shifted her hips. No pulling away. Instead she pressed back, a lazy, sleepy grind that seated me firmer between her cheeks. The movement was unhurried, almost absentminded, like breathing. Her pussy was still slick from the night before, warm and welcoming, and when she rocked again the head of my cock nudged against her entrance, slipping just inside with almost no effort. She was still full of me—leaking, I realized with a fresh jolt of heat. A slow trickle of my cum mixed with hers eased the way as she took another inch.

“Still there,” she whispered, voice husky with sleep, barely above the hum of distant traffic outside. Her eyes stayed half-lidded, lashes casting shadows on her cheeks. No rush. Just that slow, addictive roll of her hips, drawing me deeper without words.

My hand found her waist on instinct, fingers spreading over the soft dip there. Part of me wanted to freeze, to whisper that this had to stop before the daylight made it real. But the need won out, thick and heavy in my veins. I rocked forward to meet her, sliding the rest of the way in with a slick, easy glide. She was so warm inside, velvet and welcoming, still fluttering faintly from the night before. We stayed like that for a long moment—joined, barely moving, just breathing together while the apartment woke up around us. The coffee maker in the kitchenette clicked on with its familiar beep, the one we’d set last night on autopilot. Sunlight warmed the curve of her shoulder. Her phone buzzed once on the crate table, a work reminder probably, but neither of us reached for it.
