Is this destiny?

~ Los Angeles ~

Next morning, Sarah's phone woke her up. She drowsily checked it and saw that her app for notifications about social media posts was alerting her that tags she marked to be watched are being used. Opening to see the details, the app was sending notifications because of increased online activity by netizens about Jeff.

When she found out that Jeff and JoAnna were photographed secretly, Sarah added Jeff into her query for watching social media as well. Tags that she looked for were #JeffreyWhite and #CEOWhite.

Sarah checked posts, and after a quick glance concluded that one tabloid posted an article with photos of Jeff and a 'mystery woman'. Alerts on Sarah's phone were triggered by netizens speculating who the woman in photos is.

Sarah woke up Aiden. "You should check this."

Aiden drowsily glanced at the laptop that Sarah got into bed and complained. "Why are you waking me up for this? Tell Jeff and come back to bed."

Sarah could not believe his indifference. "You are quite grouchy lately."

"Grouchy?" He found the term entertaining. "Listen, baby... a man needs rest, food and his woman. If any of these are lacking, I will be... grouchy." Aiden chuckled at the word.

Sarah tried to ignore his obviously caveman-level-reasoning. 'Are all men so simple? Food, rest and sex and they are happy?' She found it difficult to comprehend how can someone so intelligent like Aiden be so simple at the same time.

She thought for a minute, the photos she saw are nothing embarrassing. The titles are over the top, but there is no reason to panic. 'Aiden is right, there is no reason for alarm. Jeff can handle this, and no one knows that the woman in photos is JoAnna.' Sarah texted Jeff and JoAnna to check the tabloid which posted their photos and kept her phone on the side turning to Aiden who was waiting for her to get back under the blanket.

Sarah looked at him with a serious expression. "I know why you are so grouchy lately..."

Aiden could guess that Sarah is playful. He was still sleepy, and his ideal outcome is that she gets into bed and they go back to sleep. But looking at her expression, he decided to indulge her, and accepted the challenge. "Oh?", he raised his eyebrows and smiled drowsily.

Sarah thought how he looks dreamy. She could just pinch his cheeks how cute he is. But she remembered that she was about to tease him. "Must be the age... you are getting old."

"Old?" Now he was awake. He looked at Sarah in disbelief and observed that she is wearing his t-shirt. On her, it was oversized, and inviting... but she called him old! "How can you call me old? I didn't even reach my prime... I'm enjoying my youth, and my stats are still increasing... Come here!" Aiden pulled Sarah in the bed.

Sarah laughed, "Did I hit a nerve?"

"What nerve?" He objected. "If you even dare calling me old, it means I failed to prove what I can do... Allow me to show you..." He removed his t-shirt from her body, and started kissing her from above her navel, and going lower.

Sarah giggled. "I look forward to record data on your performance..." Her voice trailed off as her body heat increased.

…

JoAnna woke up and her eyes lit up when she saw that Jeff is still next to her. Last few days Jeff always woke up first, while she was greeted by flowers and a note from him... but now he was there. JoAnna moved closer, her body stuck to his. She propped herself on the elbow and looked at his face. 'He is so handsome, even when he sleeps...' JoAnna reached out and caressed his cheek gently.

His body shifted and suddenly he was on top of her. His scent surrounded her, and his body lightly pressed on top of her. It took her few seconds to collect herself and look up into his face. Her eyes met his.

"Good morning, beautiful." Jeff greeted her. His voice raspy from sleeping.

His smile stunned her. JoAnna blinked few times before responding. "Good morning, handsome."

They gazed at each other for a long time, without a word, with smiles on their faces and eyes full of emotions. It felt as if time stood still. Everything stopped except for their heartbeats which seemed to be synchronized. Their thoughts and emotions matched as well. Both Jeff and JoAnna wished to stay like that forever, holding each other, looking at each other, feeling each other. Together. Always. Forever.

JoAnna's heart was swelling from emotions. She thought that her chest will explode, as if it can't hold any more feelings for this man. She needed an outlet. JoAnna moved and kissed him gently on the lips once. Twice. Trice... like an addict, she didn't want to stop, she could not stop.

Jeff returned her kisses matching her pace and pressure.

Her fingers laced in his silky hair.

Jeff was propped on one elbow, keeping his weight from pressing on her body fully. His other hand moved slowly from her waist to her armpit, and then back to her waist again as if he was memorizing curves of her body. His actions very slow, gentle. The only thing in the room speeding up, was their heart rate and breathing.

JoAnna's body moved on its own. Her hips were positioned just right while anticipating for him to penetrate her.

Jeff felt her rubbing against him and slowly got inside. JoAnna moved her hips, and he held them in place, not allowing her to increase the pace. Every time so far, their intercourse was guided by wild animal instincts. This time it was slow, every move deliberate.

"You feel so good..." He mumbled as his hot breath swept inside her ear, making her brain short-circuit.

It was a long morning session that allowed them to feel different type of intimacy, taking their relationship to the next level.. They were unaware of commotion on social media caused by their photos published by a tabloid magazine.
