Chapter78
"Who- You-"
"Yes. I know," I replied lowly, feeling my eyes begin to prickle, "Now, answer me."
He stared blankly for a while.
Ace's POV:
My heart was palpitating. I didn't even realise when I started smiling. I felt drowsy all of a sudden.
She took a step towards me.
"Sh- Sheridan?"
My eyes prickled and I gulped, feeling ever so nervous.
"H- Heather-"
Before I could say anything else, Heather literally threw herself at me. Sobbing and kissing me all over the face. I didn't know how to react at first but when she put her lips on mine, I snapped out of it.
Heather started kissing me and I immediately gave in, wrapping my arms tight around her. She held on to me, kissing me with a passion that sent shivers down my spine. I kissed her back with the same craving and passion. Goosebumps covered my skin and I felt like it was our first kiss.
Well, it was.
Now she was missing me, Sheridan Wesley, and not Ace Stonewall.
After long seconds of kissing until we were breathless, Heather pulled away.
"Sheridan! Oh my gawd! Sheridan, it's you," she cried, holding my face in her hands, my forehead against hers and her eyes staring straight into mine.
She was sobbing and yet smiling through her tears.
"Sheridan, you're not dead. Oh my gawd," she sobbed softly.
"No, I'm not dead. I- I'm so sorry I didn't tell you. I'm so sorry I couldn't get to you for years. S- so much happened and-" I took a moment to breathe.
My heartbeat was racy, there was a lump in my throat as I held back tears. My eyes were watery and I felt s wave of emotions, making me lose my words for a while. Was this real? Was this happening?
"I love you," she sobbed, "I LOVE YOU!" she exclaimed happily and jumped on me again. I hugged her tight, like my life depended on her. A tear finally rolled down my cheek.
"I love you too, Heather. More than you think."
"Why didn't you tell me when we started dating?" she asked softly, raising her head.
"It's a long story," I mumbled, kissing her again. We kissed for another sweet while and then parted.
"We have the whole night," she replied, cupping my face and caressing its sides.
She smiled at me with teary eyes and I smiled back. Our foreheads touched and there was a moment of silence. We stared into the other's soul.
"Please, kiss me again, Sheridan."
I did not need to be told that twice.
I kissed her. I kissed away all those years we lived, far away from each other She wrapped me tight in her arms. We were gone and lost in the passion of our kiss.
So lost that I didn't realise when my towel loosened and fell from my waist.
I stepped back in surprise.
"Oh, I'm sorry. I-"
"Don't be," she cut quickly. And before my eyes, she threw her bag to the corner of the bathroom and proceeded to take off all her clothes, including her underwear, leaving us both naked in the middle of my bathroom.
We stared at each other until she spoke.
"Get in," she said softly and began to carefully push me back into the shower cabin. Then, she joined me.
I turned on the cold water and we continued our passionate kissing and caressing.
Heather's POV:

I couldn't believe what was happening. There we were, the love of my life and I, under the warm running water, kissing each other like our lives depended on it. We caressed each other, touched each other and whispered love words to each other.
I was very ready for him, after all those years.
Sheridan grabbed me by the waist and pulled me towards his toned body. I kissed him deep, running my fingers through his wet hair. Then, I backed him and he began to kiss my neck. I could feel his boner rubbing against my ass.
"I love you," he whispered against my ear.
I moaned, leaning back into him.
With a free hand, I reached behind me and wrapped my fingers around his erection. He shook and held me closer to him. It was this night or never.

Ace's POV:
I almost lost it when I felt Heather's fingers wrap around me, and soon, she began to stroke me. I moaned dreamily, the soap on us easing the movement of her hand.

I had to make love to her. I couldn't take it anymore.
Just when I was about to speak, she faced me and held my face in her little hands.
"Let's get dry. I want you to make love to me. Now, in your bed."
I kissed her deeply.
"I couldn't have said it better," I whispered, pulling on her bottom lip.
-
In no time, we were dry and in the bedroom. I carried her and carefully put her on the bed. Then I stepped back and looked at the beauty, waiting for me.
Heather was mine.
Just looking at her, naked and ready for me on that bed was enough to have my mouth watering.

Heather's POV:
He stood right there, watching me, like I was his prey. Never had I been so ready for a man in my entire life.
I admired him. He was perfect. My Sheridan. Bigger than any man I'd had the bad luck to come across.
I watched him grow harder under my eyes, just by looking at me. The sexual tension was definitely heavy in the room.
"What are you waiting for??" I teased.
He smirked at me and I smiled back.
"Should I apply lubricant?" he asked, looking me in the eyes. I felt my face redden as I looked down at his gift.
"Should you?" I giggled and his smile grew bigger.
"No. I want you to feel me to the fullest."
