Brianna traced a shaky finger across the finely chiseled planes of Marshal’s face. He was sleeping and she couldn’t stop herself from watching him, it was as if he’d mentally called her out of some far away dream she’d been trapped in. He looked so peaceful, so ethereal just lying there open and vulnerable. She couldn’t stop the love that washed through her, cleansing her just by looking at him...
**I wonder how I ever made it through a day
How did I settle for the world in shades of gray
When you go in circles all the scenery looks the same
And you don't know how
And I looked into your eyes
Where the road stretched out in front of me
And I realized...**
She couldn’t prevent herself from being swept away by memories, old memories... catapulted back to a time before she’d learned what it was like to live, truly live, to be able to breathe without your throat closing up and your heart aching...a time before him...
She’d been happy with Devin, she would never imply otherwise, not even in her own mind but after his death she’d been beaten down, lost, alone. Her life had felt empty, she was hollowed out, dead inside. She’d resigned herself to living that way for the rest of her time on this earth, it must have been fated but Marshall had changed all that. He had given her more happiness than she’d ever imagined possible by merely giving her himself. She leaned forward placing a kiss, soft as the flutter of a butterflies wings on the smooth lines of his forehead and it hit her full force...
**I never lived before your love
I never felt before your touch
I never needed anyone to make me feel alive
But then again, I wasn't really living
I never lived before your love**
It was all so much, these intense feelings that swamped her every time she realized all that he’d shown her, all that he’d given too her, for her. She’d been a shadow of the woman she once was when he’d met her and he hadn’t cared. He’d seen through that hard, cold exterior, dug down deep and pulled out the woman he knew was hidden there all along. How could she ever repay him for that, truly repay him? Sometimes she felt like her love just wasn’t enough. He deserved so much more. He deserved everything...
**I wanted more than just an ordinary life
All of my dreams seem like castles in the sky
I stand before you and my heart is in your hands
And I don't know how
I survived without your kiss
'Cause you've given me a reason to exist**
She certainly hadn’t made it easy on him, not by a long shot. She’d been hard, bitter, brutal but he’d held on, he’d stuck. It amazed her sometimes that someone as strong and proud as he was would bother to stick around when all he ever got in return for the love he offered was a slap in the face but he had, he’d held on. She thanked the Lord everyday for that, for him. She knew in her mind, in her heart, in her soul that...
**I never lived before your love
I never felt before your touch
I never needed anyone to make me feel alive
But then again, I wasn't really living
I never lived before your love**
He was her savior, she knew that down to the core of her soul. He had breathed new life into her when she’d been ready to quit. She loved him more than she knew what to do with. Without him her world would be dark, dreary, dim...no light would exist in her heart, only darkness.
“I love you” she whispered brokenly. She was overwhelmed by him, completely overwhelmed.
“Bria...”
“Shhh” she smiled in the dark, reigning in her tears “go back to sleep, I didn’t mean to wake you.”
“Come here”
She crawled into his arms, her head cushioned against his chest. She could hear the steady thrumming of his heart and it soothed her. He soothed her. She pushed herself deeper into his embrace and her breath shuttered out.
“You ok?” he asked bringing his arms up to wrap around her.
“Yeah...”
“What’s with the tears?”
“Tears?” she asked quietly. She hadn’t realized that any had escaped.
He ran the pad of his thumb smoothly across her cheek catching a stray tear “Tell me what’s wrong Bria?”
“Nothing’s wrong, everything’s right...I love you”
“Oh baby, I love you too”
“Marshall, I need you..please” she asked on a shaky breath...
**I never lived before your love
And I don't know why
Why the sun decides to shine
But you breathed your love into me just in time**
He turned so that he was facing her. Their eyes met and held and he felt all the emotions that were coursing through her.
“God, you are so beautiful” he whispered leaning in to capture her lips.
The kiss was gentle, beautifully so. Just a meeting of lips, a brush of tongues but it set her body on fire.
“Please...” she whispered against his lips.
He rolled over with her so that she was laying on her back, nudging her thighs apart before settling himself between them. There was no need too shed clothes, they were already blissfully naked and the feel of her soft skin against his was like heaven. He lightly thrust forward gently pressing the tip of his manhood into her soft, wet center. He groaned helplessly. She was already wet for him. So wet, so hot, so soft. It was deliciously intoxicating, feeling her silky core grip him and try to drag him further into the haven of her body. He couldn’t hold back any longer, he pushed forward fully imbedding himself in her heat. They both shuttered at the feeling of ecstasy that rocketed through them. Their bodies gyrated together in an exotic dance, each taking from the other until they couldn’t take anymore and they exploded sending jolts of electricity zinging through both of them...
**I never lived before your love
I never felt before your touch
I never needed anyone to make me feel alive
But then again, I wasn't really living
I never lived, I never lived, before your love**
Marshall and Brianna laid there together, in their bed snuggled tightly in each other’s arms. Their breathing heavy, their heartbeats thundering wildly together. It was always like this, every time they made love they were swept away by the sensations, the feelings that they elicited in each other. Both content in the knowledge that neither of them had ever truly lived before they found each other...Author: AIMEENDREW@aol.com
