Affinity

/əˈfinədē/

noun

a spontaneous or natural liking of someone

I don't remember how it happened, but at some point between our staring and expressions of love, Luke had moved me so that I was lying beneath him. His kisses never stopped as they traveled down my neck while I let out strangled gasps, never having expected this from Luke, especially after all that had happened. Nevertheless, his body hovered over mine as I felt his lean torso against my own, the only separation being our clothing. Most of his weight ended up on myself as I pulled him closer and closer to me, the rest of his weight being held up by his muscular arms.

His body moved fluidly as he wound one of his forearms beneath my neck and gently pulled at my long blonde hair as he was so accustomed to doing. With his lips continuing to pepper light kisses on my neck, I hummed and shivered beneath his touch. My hands raked down his sides multiple times before gaining the courage to slightly raise his shirt and indicate that I wanted it off of him. As soon as that barrier was gone, his chest was pressed against mine as it had been moments before.

I relished in the feeling of closeness, the love surrounding us almost palpable as I melted into his strong hold. Although I had been intimate with no other person than Luke, I found the concept of wanting any other man this close to me to be odd. Luke was the only man I could ever imagine loving, despite all of the special circumstances that had to happen in order for us to even meet.

Neither of us spoke as emotions seemed to fill the room with silent screams and declarations of love. I was drained from the emotionally trying day, and I could tell Luke felt it as well by the lazy way he planted kisses on my neck. Even though he tried to hide his emotions from the day, I could see in the way his shoulders were tensed and his back was rigid that he had been affected by this just as much as I had been.

"Relax," I breathed into his ear, allowing my hands to shift down his lower back and my fingers to encircle the tight muscles making up the expanse of it. Soft moans escaped his mouth as his stiff muscles loosened. The warm air he had released tickled my skin, but I had no urge to laugh at the interaction as I took in the weight he had adjusted to place on me.

His eyes met mine, as though he were asking if the amount of weight on me was alright, and I simply nodded and attached our lips together in hopes that he would receive the message that i only wanted to feel him against me.

His skin felt hot against my own, almost as though he were setting me on fire, but I knew that it was only the hormones of the moments catching up to him. As he placed soft kisses along my neck and collarbone, I allowed my hands to slip down his back and draw small patterns upon it. The closeness of our bodies entwined caused me to let out a shaky breath.

Although we had not been apart for long, I felt as though it had been ages since I had been this close to him. With every touch he gave, he soothed each ache I had carried around all of my life. He was the missing piece in my life that I never thought that I would find, and now that I had found him, I never wanted to let him go.

His kisses were healing me so quickly that it was as if the damaged caused by the multiple casualties in the past few months were nonexistent. My fingers couldn't stop touching him as I tried to keep the healing process flowing. Luke didn't seem to mind my touches at all as he continued his gentle assault on my body.

"I love you," I heard him whisper gently into my skin as his lips fell to the space below my ear. Gasps and quick intakes of breath was all that could be heard from my lips as a shiver ran through my whole body, my instincts knowing exactly what I wanted from the blonde haired boy above me. When his teeth nibbled on my skin, I sucked in a deep breath, the effort to not give into his whims taking every bit of willpower that I had.

His hands moved up my thighs stealthily, their path burning into my skin as I leaned back onto the pillows of our shared bed. The blue irises of his eyes became quickly taken up with the black of his pupil as he stared at me. Despite the obvious lust filling his senses, I could distinguish the pure love immersing them while he stared at my body, admiring it for all that it was.

As his fingers made their way to the elastic band of my shorts, I attempted to raise onto my arms, which felt too weak to hold my weight up as I became overtaken by the perfection that was Luke Hemmings. His ragged breath could be felt against my lips as he lowered his head to be level with mine, dangerously close to my lips. In one quick movement, he removed my shorts, throwing them somewhere in the room before his hand returned to my thigh, only this time it was higher.

He stared at me for a moment, a smirk covering his features when he noticed my ragged breathing. My chest rose and fell several times per minute as he teased me with his hand remaining close to the only place I wanted him, every inch of myself yearning for only him.

His teasing eyes remained in contact with mine while I tried to contain my ragged breath and need for him. However, I was ineffective at this as he heard the beating of my heart increase and my panting become uncontrollable while he held himself over my body in such a way that no woman could refuse.

"What do you want?" he asked cautiously, looking into my eyes as though he was genuinely curious; however, any person who knew us would know that this was not a question that he needed to ask. My eyes rolled at him as I adjusted myself to be closer to him, only to have him back away from me as I let out a complaint of a whine.

His eyes remained curious as they stared focused on me, but that didn't help my situation as I thought of ways to get out of this situation, but I found none as I finally gave into his madness and found myself leaned in closer to him.

"You," I whispered lightly. That was all it took as he pulled me closer to him, his lips enveloping mine in a kiss. His touch singed me as I tried to recover from the pull he had me. The expanses of his hands moved away from my thighs and slid up the sides of my body to hastily remove my tee shirt that I had been sleeping in previously.

His fingers returned to play with my easily accessible bra while I wrapped my arms tightly around his neck to pull him closer to myself. The need to feel his body against mine took over all of my senses, my mind begging to feel every inch of him against me. When he connected our lips, his tongue pushed into my mouth, sliding smoothly across my own as the kiss deepened quickly.

My body felt as though it were on cloud nine. I was suddenly weightless as his palms slid around my back, lifting me against himself as he removed my bra and left me only in my underwear. Groans released from the back of his throat as I was placed against him, his hips gently colliding with mine as I noticed the heavy weight of him below his boxers.

It had been so long since I had felt this close to him, giving him further reason to attach his lips with my neck when our lips disconnected. My mouth fell open, satisfied at the feeling of him attacking my neck with soft kisses of his lips, laps of his tongue, and small bites of his teeth. Without further counsel, he delved toward my collarbones while I ran my hands through his hair, slightly tugging it as I continued to take in deep breaths.

As his long fingers closed over my hips and removed my last article of clothing, a gasp fell from my lips. With a feather like touch, his hands smoothed down my legs before traveling to the tops of my thighs, only one going as far as to travel between my legs and brush slightly up my center. I threw my head back when his thumb found my clit and circled around it, his lips dipping lower to my chest as he took one of nipples into his mouth with gentle ease.

The feeling of love entranced me as I closed my eyes. When I opened them again, I no longer felt Luke's lips around my nipple. Instead, he was looking into my eyes with pure awe and wonder, but that moment ended quickly as his fingers circled my entrance once more before pushing into me, leaving me to release a pitiful moan as I welcomed his loving and sensual touch.

He nudged my body back slightly with his hip, attempting to get me further up on the bed while he watched me with hooded eyes. The moment he pulled his hand from my center, they traveled up to my knees to force my legs apart as he moved his hips in between my legs. I released a light breath as his lips connected with mine one last time before moving down to the place I wanted him.

My body was practically going into flames at this point as I watched his blue remain connected with mine, his blonde curls disheveled from my fingers running through it. His lips traced down my stomach, causing me to shudder in anticipation of what was coming next. As his thumb found my clit again, a whimper released from my lips, my eyes remaining attached to his as if daring him to toy with me more than he was.

In an act of mercy, he allowed his tongue to drag against my core slowly, his arms curling around them as he rested the over his shoulders in order to hold me in place with the help of his fingers being firmly pressed against my skin; however, it wasn't working, as I was a squirming mess from this alone.

His tongue slid up my complete entrance once more before filling the void his thumb had left at my clit, the tip of it circling torturously around the sensitive nerves. My hands moved quickly down to his curls, tightening around them as ragged breaths escaped my mouth. Gasps released from my mouth when his teeth gently nipped at my clit. Not long after, he teased my entrance before curling up into me, causing my back to arch against the bed.

Heat cascaded through my body as I felt the burning pit in my stomach grow severely within the first few moments of his touch covering me. My breathing was uneven, and I was sure that he could tell that I was about to crumble beneath his touch as a loud moan escaped my lips. With that being his cue, his fingers moved from their torturous position on my thighs and slid inside me, sending me into a state of oblivion while my orgasm rocketed through me.

Euphoria was flooding my body as Luke kept his attention focused on my center throughout my orgasm. When he finally pulled his fingers from within me, I relaxed a bit more into the covers before his arms encompassed me and pulled my body up against his muscled one.

His lips reattached to my neck, placing gentle kisses against it as I released another breath. Nothing seemed to move, time was topped until I had finally regained my composure from the earth shattering orgasm I had only a few minutes before. When he noticed my regained stamina, he lied my body against the bed again, proceeding to remove his last article of clothing before placing his lips against mine.

Our bodies were so close to being connected, but in that moment we were closer than anyone could have imagined. It was as if all of our stresses from this fucked up world were placed on the other's shoulders, releasing us of our own tragedies as we took confidence in one another for shelter.

"Luke," I said softly, taking his attention away from my eyes, which he had been staring into for a few moments. While I was normally flattered by his admirations, I was anxious for the rest of the night and wanted him to focus of all of me: not just my eyes. "I need you," I whimpered against his lips as they collided once against, this time my tongue slipping against his.

A flash of realization crossed his eyes when we pulled away as his cheeks flushed softly. His body hovered too far away from me as his hips shifted forward to drive himself into me. Whimpers continued to flutter out of my lips, but they were all muffled by Luke's heart shaped lips that were pressed against me.

Delicious burning filled my insides as I took all of Luke in; however, he continued to move slowly within me in hopes that he wouldn't hurt me, despite my obvious pleasure. My hands roamed his sides, gripping his skin in my hands every chance I could to urge him to move faster.

When his lips finally pushed against mine again, he seemed to get into a rhythm and push further and harder within me. I tugged at his curls to encourage him to keep moving as I soaked up the love coursing through my body. It was as if all of his energy was invading myself as I felt him move in and out of my body with fluid motion. I was weightless as I clung to him tightly in fear of losing him if I didn't.

My legs curled around his waist, a groan escaping his lips when I did so. As he kept moving within me, my back arched, signalling that I was going to explode around him soon, but he already knew that. When he disconnected our lips, I reached mine back up, taking his lip in between my teeth and hearing his wonderful moan in response.

He was breathless and sweaty above me, looking into my eyes with such love and lust. My hands came up to cradle his face, wanting to stare into his eyes as we both hit our end. Hands pushing back his sweaty curls, I noticed how he looked spent, but was trailing on for me; however, I was already reaching my end judging by the fire swelling within my stomach.

With one final thrust, my orgasm exploded for the second time within the night, my veins lighting with fire as though they were soaked in gasoline. His eyes screwed shut as he let go, stilling himself within me while his neck muscle protruded and his arms struggled to hold him up before he fell onto my chest, covered in sweat from the exhaustion of our escapade.

We stayed within each other's arms for a moment, absorbing the love contributed by the two of us in those precious moments. A smile remained on my face as Luke removed himself from me, taking the liberty to clean my thighs before returning to the bed with his arms wrapping around my waist.

"I meant it," he said after a few moments, his arms tightening around me. I turned slightly toward him, not understanding what he meant by that statement. "When I said I love you," he explained thoughtfully, looking into mine with his oceanic blue ones. "I meant it."

Love traveled through my veins as I tried to hold my tears back, gazing him with such emotion that I thought I wouldn't be able to contain it. I wasn't able to obviously because that was when I reattached my lips to his and allowed for the kiss to deepen.

"I love you," I whispered when I pulled away, noticing the grin that took over the blonde boy's face as I said those three words. In that moment, I swore to myself that I would never leave this boy because he was my source of happiness in life. He was my source of hope in the war torn world.

And he was all I needed, both now and forever.
