Nathan grunted and smiled more broadly as she jumped him, literally, his hands going to her hips to keep her steady as he steadied himself. "Mmm. Always willing to provide a distraction," he murmured, quite pleased by the turn of events in his day.
He'd never quite expected to have hot, enthusiastic sex on the mats of the gym, and he was sure Theo would be appalled, but Nathan thought it was very much a good idea.
"Love you too," he told her, hands running soothingly up and down her sides in the aftermath. "Ice skating, hm?" Not something he'd done much of as a child and even less of since he was grown, but she was wheedling in a quite delightful way and he was feeling good after the workout and her. "Mmmm. If you really want to," he said, but his eyes twinkled and his lips smiled, belaying the reluctance he was pretending. "Why not?" he said, giving up the act. "Just don't make fun of me if I'm not very good." He leaned over and kissed the tip of her nose to make her smile.
