Jack looked up at her in bed, ‘good’ watching her chest rise and fall was so hot, he kissed up her stomach leaving wet kisses, she giggled, ‘it’s like having a puppy’ he grinned kissing passionately, hard on her thigh, ‘you going to use that?’ ‘maybe, I was hoping you would’ ‘hmm, lay on your back’ he grinned as she went down on him, ‘seeing as you were so good to me’ making him a mess, ‘geez, I wanna make you do that’ she giggled, ‘good, get practicing’ he smiled, ‘I love you’ ‘I love you too’.
