Kenzie was still overcome by orgasmic aftershocks and she huffed out a soft laugh before sinking down onto Chris again. Her heart was pounding and she could feel Chris's own heartbeat against her chest. Once she felt she could move properly, Kenzie pressed a kiss to his throat before slipping off of him onto the bed. "That was exactly how I remembered it," she murmured, a lazy smile on her face as she stretched. A shower would be needed here in a minute or two, but for now, she was more than content with laying beside him. It was as good as before but somehow... it felt better. Maybe because they had both been able to admit their feelings for one another. It had the potential to be messy, but Chris was more than worth the risk.
Chris’s body immediately missed hers on top of him, even though he was still cooling down. He hadn’t even exerted that much energy, Kenzie had just gotten his body all kinds of worked up. He turned his head to look over at her, his eyes and smile sleepy. He felt ready to pass out, even though a shower probably ought to come first. He just wasn’t in any hurry to go anywhere. “‘Cause you got a mind like a steel trap,” Chris murmured back, moving his hand to pet her hair a little. She was so pretty when she was flushed and happy like that. “Personally, I was better than I remembered.” He grinned at his dumb little joke and rolled over enough to kiss her face. “Welcome back, Agent Novak,” he added softly.
Kenzie smiled and reached out to smooth her hand over his side. God, she loved his body. And right now, it was all hers. "Welcome back, Agent Washburn." She relaxed, enjoying just being there with him. Kenzie wondered why she had been so worried on the plane ride to Maine. She really should have known they would end up here, in her bed. Their chemistry had been too strong. And now Kenzie knew Chris had missed her as much as she had missed him and everything felt right for the moment. "I need to shower," she murmured, leaning over to press a kiss to his lips. "Do you think that gives you enough time to... you know... get ready again?" Kenzie grinned and raised a brow suggestively.
Chris had hoped for this -- really, it was better than what he’d hoped for. He hadn’t thought he was ready to tell Kenzie how he felt, but of course she’d gotten it out of him. She was a fantastic investigator. And damn sexy to boot. Chris kissed her back, then gave a lazy grin. “Let me hop in there with you to help soap you up, and I’ll be ready in no time,” he murmured. Chris ran his hand over her hip and around to give her ass a squeeze. Getting to touch her all over, all slicked up with soap ... he could already feel a little tingle in his groin. Chris had the good feeling that they would be insatiable for a while, and he was looking forward to reminding her how good he could be when it hadn’t been months since he’d had sex.
Kenzie had known Chris long enough to know he was not an open book. When they had just been partners, that had been fine with her because she'd tried to steer clear of sharing too much of her personal life with him too. But now... things were different and she had a feeling she would have to pry him open a little bit at a time but that was okay with her. Kenzie was willing to put in the work and she hoped he was too. Smiling, she kissed him again, lingering for a moment before pulling away and sitting up with a soft, satisfied groan. "I'll get the shower going. Come in when you think you can move again." Kenzie slipped off the bed and stretched before padding across the room to the bathroom. She was already thinking they could order in for dinner and just stay naked all day. Tomorrow they would have to get to work, so she wanted to enjoy today as much as she could.
