2020-03-15 - Sleepless in Gray Harbor

(TXT to Wayne) Katherine : Hey Handsome, you awake? Couldn’t sleep.

(TXT to Katherine) Wayne : Hi Gorgeous, I rarely sleep well. What has you awake?

(TXT to Wayne) Katherine : Had deadlines on the East Coast and I ended up just working until midnight. Then I realized that I hadn’t checked in with my favourite guy.

(TXT to Katherine) Wayne : morbidly curious if I am your only guy. I was doing.a bunch of online auctions, getting a next day air mail of a hardcover is tough.

(TXT to Wayne) Katherine : Amazon Prime. Also, haven’t had a guy in nearly two years. Spent my college years stuck on a who broke my heart in the end. No competition for you.

(TXT to Katherine) Wayne : I left and did not look back. I think by now you know my interest is only on you. Amazon Prime was sold out it's not new. Sorry that you had your heart broken, I searched for you but had to come home to find you.

(TXT to Wayne) Katherine : I almost didn’t stick around because my past caught up to me here. But when I ran into my future out of the blue, I had to stick it out to see what happens next.

(TXT to Katherine) Wayne : You are killing me Gorgeous, I had been tossing out signs since I met you. I felt something the first day. You have this almost old fashioned feel to a relationship, it took me a bit to get used to it. I am sorry, I won't ask permission to kiss you.

(TXT to Wayne) Katherine : I was a little preoccupied with a lot of things and I tunnel vision sometimes. Consider this message permission to kiss me, valid indefinitely.

(TXT to Katherine) Wayne : damn it, sorry I took so long, was finding pants. I think I would like to test said permission.

(TXT to Wayne) Katherine : I’ll let security know to expect you.

It was that eerie time, before dawn and yet after midnight so it was fair to say the next day found Wayne on his way up to her door in the apartment complex. Wayne looked like he put together what clothes were clean and then jumped in his car. Standing on her doorway with mismatched sneakers. A pair of blue jeans and a hoodie on, he knocked lightly, not looking to wake her neighbors.

The door opens and Katherine appears, dressed in red silk pyjamas (tank top and shorts), over a black silk robe. There’s a smile on her face as she lets him in. After closing the door behind her, she immediately provides him with what he came over for. As their lips lock, Katherine guides him towards the living room couch.

His arms snake around her waist, following her movements without breaking their contact. This was what he had longed for, his tongue testing her lips to see if she was ready for that. She had let him in, the least he could do was let her lead.

Nibbling on his lower lip, Katherine focuses on that for a moment before letting her tongue towards his lips, meeting his tongue. “Hi...” she greets him when she pauses to come up for some air, a coy smile on her face.

Wayne licked the tip of her tongue as they both stop to breathe. "Hi Beautiful, I missed you. I do not want to take over your time but yeah, I like us like this." He gestured with his hand that he meant the idea of them together at night... it was still night right.

Katherine smiles as she looks out the window at the dark city skyline. “Stay,” she offers, “I want you to stay. You’re not taking over my time.”

"I would like to stay as well. I want to wake up next to you." He kisses her once more. Pulling back slowly he smiles. "Did you want me to carry you to bed, or stay snuggling on the couch?" His arms slipped around so he can rub her back.

“Right here’s just fine,” Katherine mumbles as she cuddles up to Wayne, her tiredness finally catches up to her as she lets out a yawn.

Wayne kicks his feet up on the sofa and guides Katherine to stretch and snuggle on him. "Right here works for me too." He kissed her forehead softly.
