He held me tight, and he comforted me the best he could. I had never really told anyone about my fear of heights until today I couldn't even admit it to myself, I just hated how far away it was from the ground that you could fall.

The blanket snuggled us as I was sprawled over him as he just held me layering kisses on my forehead. The sweetest he's been, I could tell somewhere in those eyes that he had gone through something similar and that he needed me as much as I need him.

"You were really scared today, and I know you say that your afraid of falling, but is there more?", he asked as my heartbeat picked up the pace and he moved me so that I was aligned with his luscious lips and chiseled chin.

Nolan's POV
"It just reminds me of my mom we used to go up on the hospital rooftop and make our own little constellation,  we'd name the stars our own names, and I think when she died my love of climbing and how high everything looked from above died with her.", I was a bad person. I thought her mom was alive, the grave must be her mom's. I held onto her as I heard a sniffle come from her nose, her nose was glossy red and she looked so beautiful in such a vulnerable stage.

"I'm sorry, I didn't know", I tried my best to comfort her as she sniffled in my neck, just feeling her breathe on my neck made me feel a certain way, that wouldn't stop.

"I'm sorry, I'm such a mess", she apologized as she threw her hands up in the air and backed away from me when she realized just how comfortable she was. I brought her arms down and I wrapped my hands around her tiny waist. I moved her hair back as she wrapped her legs around mine and I pulled them up.

"Don't ever apologize for crying, don't apologize for being who you are and feeling what you are", a shy smile shined on her face as she put her face back in my neck. I carried her to the bedroom, passing the images of my empty cabin hoping to give it to her as an escape.

I set her down gently on the bed as she latched on to me, as she patted the bed.

"Stay", her word graced me as I lied down next to her, she smelled like sweet daffodils on a summer day, she was a breath of fresh air.

Her arms hugged me as she opened her eyes, as I continued studying every little thing about her, her eyes a soft tone matched her light blush across her cheeks as she noticed I was looking at her. She leaned in and as she got closer my I could tell I would remember this moment forever.

Her lips dived into mine, her hands roaming my upper chest as my hands went straight to her head.  She kissed me softly at first, and then with a swift gradation of intensity that made her cling to me as I was the only solid thing in a dizzy swaying world. Her insistent mouth was parting her shaking lips, sending wild tremors along my nerves, evoking from her sensations she had never known she was capable of feeling. And before a swimming giddiness spun her round and round, I knew that I was kissing her back.

She let go persistently and before she had turned around to go to sleep she gave me one last kiss, a soft and subtle peck that let me taste her honey lip gloss. She kissed my forehead and turned around to fall asleep, I had never been more confused about anything in this troubled world.
——————-
The sun shined on my face as my eyes opened suddenly when I saw the beautiful face that was staring back at me. Her hand was settled in her lap as her other held a cup of fresh orange juice, she was dressed in a bathrobe and had her hair in a bun. She handed me the orange juice and I set myself up, as she studied the movement of my chest.

"I made breakfast", she leaned in closer as she reached over me to grab her blanket that was folded nicely against her pillow. She handed me the blanket as she left the room, did she know I had slept naked last night.

I slipped some shorts and came out of the room with the blanket in one hand and the cup in the other, she stared politely at me as her eyes eye-fucked my abs, I could just imagine her outlining them with her finger as she squealed, nervously.

"I'm sorry, we didn't get our night together", she took a seat as I pushed in her chair, she seemed like she wanted to make it up to me.

"Just promise me tonight your all mine", I could tell my words made her feel the slightest uncomfortable especially as she gulped hard enough that even I heard it. I could see into her virgin mind, that she hadn't flirted and I would teach her, everything she needed to know. The breakfast was around the crispy side, more like the burnt side, that was another thing that she would never have to do again for my safety and for hers.

She nodded her head as she quickly finished up her breakfast. As she washed up the dishes I conveniently interrupted as I snuck up behind her, she nearly jumped as I held her hand that was braced onto a sponge.

"I can take care of those for you", her eyes seemed so innocent as she backed away from me and took off speed walking, leaving me alone and to not see her for the whole day. She stopped every hour or so to tell me what she was doing. The last I had heard from her she had gone exploring the dusty library, and it was getting close to the time of our dinner. I stripped off my shirt and put on my apron. I was ready to make my girl a meal she could never forget.
