"I don't like the idea of you ever being tense, but I love that I'm the one you can relax around," she answered fondly. Uneventful days could certainly be taken as a blessing for someone of the medical profession. "Then I suppose I should wish you more uneventful days... but not uneventful nights." She didn't understand why him calling her darlin' and love still affected her this much, but the words were almost as arousing as his breath against her ear. A soft moan escaped her lips as he pulled the lobe back into his mouth. She wanted to kiss his lips, but she didn't feel like rolling over just yet, so she settled for slipping her fingers under the waistline of his boxer briefs, her touch still light and teasing. Then her hand found his and brought it to her mouth to kiss his knuckles. "You have marvelous hands, mpenzi" she whispered, sucking lightly on one of his fingers.
