My alarm goes off but I hit the snooze because I don't want to move. Fin is wrapped around me keeping me warm and I've never been more comfortable actually sleeping with a man in my entire life. Although admittedly, I'm fairly sore this morning after using long dormant muscles last night.

My toes curl at the memory of how we tore each other's clothes off the second we got back to the room last night. Getting to see Fin completely naked was a revelation. All of the sword training he puts in for the show has made him lean and ripped. But the juxtaposition of my less toned body against his sculpted physique suddenly made me feel flabby. I found myself feeling embarrassed once I was completely undressed in front of him.

But when I tried to pull the sheets over myself, Fin pulled them aside. "Stop trying to hide yourself from me. You're beautiful! I want to know every inch of you." Then he proceeded to explore me, kissing and tasting most of my body. When he entered me to his hilt I cried out and he whispered into my ear. "I love how soft and luscious you are Millie." Just the memory of it makes me wet.

My alarm goes off again and Fin's arms tighten around me. I swipe my thumb along the inky words on the underside of his bicep. I hope he still feels the same way this morning.

Fin kisses my shoulder blade. "Will you shut that damn thing off and help me out with a little problem I'm having?" He grabs my hand and places it on his erection.

I stroke him and giggle."Well, well now. That doesn't seem little, nor does it seem to be a problem. But I do wonder how I can shut off the alarm if my hand is occupied this way?"

Fin's hand settles between my legs, where he finds me eager for him. "Good point. I think I have a solution." He rolls me over onto my stomach and reaches over my head to shut off my alarm and grab another condom. I hear the wrapper tear and then I feel him slip himself between my thighs and up inside of me. I hiss at the painful pleasure and he growls. "Call out sick and stay in bed with me all day."

He bites my shoulder and licks my ear. "Say you will." But all I can do is moan out his name. "Finnnn..." It's like I'm pleading for him to stop and go on all at the same time.

It seems to drive him wild and Fin lifts me up by my waist so I'm on my hands and knees. He stops for a moment to gently trace his finger along the bruised line that runs across my buttocks from the counter last night. "Say you'll stay with me forever Millie!" He doesn't wait for my answer as he begins to pound into me from behind. I feel like a top that is being wound up. Each thrust threatens to send me careening out of control. So that when Fin leans forward and grabs both of my breasts, I explode. "I will Fin! Oh God I will!" My legs are giving out and Fin's hips are stuttering into mine. "Oh fuckkkkk! Marry me Millie!"

Fin collapses on top of me. Then he grabs my face to kiss me. After another moment he rolls off of me and pulls my head onto his chest. I tuck into him while I listen to the rapid beating of his heart. Once it slows to something close to normal he kisses the top of my head. "I meant it Millie."

I pick my head up and look up at him. "What part? Call out sick? Don't you have rehearsal today?"

Fin bites the inside of his cheek. "Every part... Stay with me."

I push myself up and look at him more closely. My eyes narrow and I snort. "You can't be serious?!"

Fin gets out of the bed. He puts his hand out to me. "Come here. Give me your hand."

I shimmy to the edge of the bed and put my palm in his. Fin drops to his knee. I laugh because I'm sure he is joking. I'm positive he is going to just ask me to call out sick for the day.

But then he smiles at me and his eyes sparkle like a shiny penny in the morning light. "I don't want to know another moment in this life without calling you mine. Tell me that you feel the same way Millie."

My eyes watch Fin, but my mind searches my soul. And soon I realize that my heart is whispering the words into my head. So I tell Fin what I hear. "I feel the same way about you Fin."

He grins and leans over to the nightstand to take something off its surface. Fin clears his throat. "Well then Millie Stevens. Will you make me the happiest man alive and honor me by becoming my wife?"

My heart is racing wildly. "Oh... Fin... I..." I can't finish the sentence because I start laughing.

Fin's face is uncertain as tears begin to roll down my face. I nod my head yes. He lets out a deep breath. "Is that your answer?"

I'm still laughing but I wipe my eyes and nod my head more vigourously. Suddenly my voice works again. "I can't believe this... but... yes... my answer is yes!"

Fin puts out his other hand and opens his palm. There is an age worn gold claddagh ring in it. "I know this will be too big but it will have to do for the moment. It was my Grandad's..."

He slips it onto my left thumb and I throw my arms around his neck. We kiss and he cards his hands through my hair. We lay back down on the bed and he picks up his phone. He pushes the button for RAA and hands it to me. "Time to call out..."

I feign a stomach ailment. My performance is enhanced by my pained tone. My tone is courtesy of Fin's tongue, which is trying to make me breakdown while I'm on the phone leaving a message for Eric. By the time I've left a message with HR to have a floater cover my desk for the day and hang up, I'm climaxing. Then I pull him back up by his hair and wrap my legs around him, hooking my heels behind him. This time we go much more slowly and gently.
