The sun from the blinds I forgot to shut last night woke me up. I rub my eyes with the back of hands, I tried to make to stretch but there was a weight on me. I couldn't move.

I look down to see my beautiful girlfriend naked laying right on top my chest. Her ass was a heavy ass sleeper so she didn't wake up from me trying to stretch.

I just look down at her for a moment. Thanking the man upstairs for this blessing laying right on top of me. I study her. My eyes racked up and down her body.

Sometimes when she not looking, I just stare at her. It sometimes shocks me that's she all mine. I couldn't believe it. I've been in a toxic relationship for 3 years with Ashley ass. Been cheated on, lied to, and mistreated.

I really thought that was love, us coming back to each other every time. Thought that was a ride or die thing but I was totally wrong.

It's like I didn't know my worth or something. I just kept taking bullshit after bullshit from people. But now i'm a whole different person, my ass is tired of being nice to people that don't treat my ass with respect.

I look back down at my beautiful girlfriend, I began to traced every inch of her bare body with my fingers. The last couple of days Scar and I were fucking like bunnies. When we hanging with the yerm, we leave early so we can go to my place or hers. I just can't get enough of her, every time feels like the first time.

I felt Scarlet's body move under my fingers tips. We were already close to each other, like our body was one. she digs her face into my chest and too a big sniff of me.

She does this all the time, she always says she loves the way i smell. That's why she takes all my sweat shirts and tees.

"babe? you okay?" Scar mumbled into my chest.

I started to run my fingers through her hair, I responded to her that i was good. She removed herself from my grasp and sat up looking at me confused.

"Then why are you up so early?" she asks me.

I didn't even know what time it is, i didn't even touch my phone yet. I reached on the side of me where my phone was and looked at the time.

"Girl, it's 3:30 pm. I must have been killing your shit last night huh?" i said jokingly.

I felt a stinging sensation on my chest, her ass really just slapped me. I glared at her as i grip my chest in pain.

"You didn't just do that?"

"I did, what you finna do about it?" she bites her lip.

Every time she does that shit, i just wanna fuck the shit outta her ass. Now this is why we be fucking all the time, she's a damn tease. I don't mind it though, i'll never get tired of pleasing her.

"You really wanna know what imma do?"

I tackled her body right on the bed and began to tickling her.

"Melo!? Stop! I'm still naked!" she squeals, trying to push me off.

I caught myself admiring her again. Her smile can light up a room, her laugh is heaven to my ears. I didn't know i was caught all up in a trance til Scar brought me outta it.

"You okay babe? you were all in your head there."

I just stared at her, i couldn't take my eyes off of her.

"why are you staring at me like that?" she giggles

"I-I love you."

"Melo-

"I love you, okay? I love your laugh, your smile, and how passionate you are. I love how you get along with everyone, is nice to people that aren't even nice to you. I love how understanding you are, how patient you are with me and others. I love how you treat me, how you kiss me, and how you touch me... Damn, I just so fucking in love with you man."

A tear falls from her face, She looks at me for a second but didn't say a word. I wiped the tear away from her cheek. Her eyes started to study me, like she was seeing if i was lying or not.

She lifts her hand and puts it over my heart. I think she's feeling my heart beat. Her hand stayed there for a minute, my heart was beating so fast. Like faster than normal.

A big smile spreads across her face then she tackled me into a kiss. The kiss was slow, like we were taking time savoring the taste of each other.

"I love you too, Melo."
