dozing off about halfway through. She hadn't realized just how exhausted she was- she couldn't keep her eyes open. Eventually she felt herself being lifted up in Guy's arms and carried to bed.
     

    She woke up alone the next morning. Much to her dismay, she could hear the faint sound of Guy yelling on the phone in the other room. A bad feeling had begun to root itself into the pit of her stomach, though she tried her hardest to push it away. You hardly know him, she reminded herself, and yet it felt like she'd known him for a thousand years. Had it really only been less than a week?

That couldn't be right. Their time together so far had been so magical… it had to be longer. Maybe they had crossed paths in another life, of in a parallel universe… or maybe they had always known each other in their dreams. Meeting Guy had been the best thing that ever happened to her… being with him was like finally discovering the other half of herself, which she hadn't even known was missing…
    Reluctantly she crawled out of bed and went to the bathroom to take a hot shower. Suddenly she felt very cold, and no amount of heat could warm her up.
     
    She was standing in the shower, letting the scalding hot water run over her mocha colored skin, when she heard a soft knock at the door. Before she could reply, "come in," the bathroom door creaked open, and Guy let himself in. She could make out his handsome features through the steamy mist that filled the room and fogged up the glass shower door. He stepped up to the shower door and tapped lightly on the glass.
     
    "Mind if I join you?"
     

"No, not at all," she replied, feeling the familiar sensation of butterflies fluttering in the pit of her stomach as Guy stripped naked, opened the shower door and let himself in.
     
    "Hey," he whispered, leaning down and pressing his lips against hers. She felt her body melt against his, and slowly the icy feeling that had planted itself in her core melted away. In that moment, nothing else existed but the two of them. Their kiss held all the promises of tomorrow, and days after. Guy wrapped his arms around her as she fully melted against him, pulling her body close so that there were no barriers between the two of them. In that moment, they truly were and would always be one.
     

    Slowly Guy pulled away, planting smaller kisses along Latisse's jawline and collarbone. She arched her neck and offered herself to him, loving the feel of his lips against her skin. Gently he grazed his teeth over her throat, and she shivered, a delicious shiver which sent thunderbolts right down to the very tips of her toes. Guy continued to shower her in kisses, and she leaned her head back and enjoyed it.

 Oh, how she loved him- the thought made her gasp- could she REALLY be in love already? But as soon as she thought it, she knew it was true; she was smitten, head-over-heels in love with Guy Blanchard.
    Guy heard her gasp, and pulled away slightly. "What is it?" he asked, a look of concern crossing his face, but Latisse smiled.
     
    "Nothing," she whispered, taking his face in her hands and planting a kiss full-on his lips. "Here, let me wash you…"
     
    She had never bathed a man in the shower with her before, and oh, what a beautiful experience it was. She took a wash cloth and poured some bath-wash on it, then gently rubbed it in small circles across Guy's gleaming chest, working up a lather over his small pattering of chest hair. Guy closed his eyes and groaned in pleasure, leaning back and letting Latisse do her work on him. After she had successfully lathered and rinsed every inch of his body, he gently removed the wash cloth from her hand and returned the favor for her.
     
     
     
    After they had finished bathing each other, they made love underneath the steady stream of hot water in the shower, their bodies melding together, breath hitching as the steam from the faucet head enveloped them. Afterwards, Latisse felt like she was positively beaming, and as
