Ever since the first night they’d shared together, Nora hadn’t had a single nightmare. She finally had reason to believe that all the nightmares were all behind her.

"I wish to hell you never had to get them in the first place, but how it feels when we’re pressed together might just be the best feeling in the entire world to me. Your skin tells your story, and I can’t believe I get to be part of it now.”

i wish we got to see more of nora truly experiencing peace 😔 she's been through too much. also these two are just going at it like rabbits 🤭🤣

“Tell me, Al.” “Get me close,” Alice said. “But don’t let me come.” Nora smirked and nodded at her before she lowered her head again.

Nora took Alice’s hand and put it on the back of her own head. “Put me where you want me.” “Everywhere. Is everywhere an option?” Alice asked as Nora worked her inside...

😯🤭😵‍💫🤒

“We can wait. You just kissed a woman for the first time last night, and–” Alice cut her off with her lips.

"Then, come to bed, sweetheart,” Alice said, giving her a quick kiss on the lips.

Nora rubbed up and down Alice’s back in an attempt to warm her. “It’s really cold out here,” Nora whispered into Alice’s ear. “We should go.” “I’m warming up,” Alice replied, tucking her chin into Nora’s neck. “How are you this warm?”

🥺✋🏻💓

“Sleep, Nora,” Alice replied. “I’ll be here.” “You don’t have to. You can go to–” “I’ll be here,” Alice repeated, and Nora felt Alice’s hand take her own and entwine their fingers.
