to be this close to another person. Safe, warm, intimate. But also scary,
     and I didn’t know what to say any more because all I could think about was his breathing, and my breathing, and how much had
     changed in the space of a day.
    He sighed, exhaling through his nose, which blew a tuft of my hair up and over my face. Jamie reached over to push it back
     and I instinctively nuzzled into his hand, kissing his palm lightly.
    ‘Elle …’ he said, and I shifted my body up so my face was level with him. I wanted that kiss. Did he want it too?
    Suddenly he brought his head up and crushed his lips against mine. I hadn’t kissed anyone for a long time, bar earlier today,
     and my body wanted to make up for it. I had the feeling he was the same, from his urgency.
    We kissed, our tongues tingling from the chilli, and pressed our bodies together on his bed, and the roaring fire slowed to
     softly crackling embers as we melted into it. I hadn’t thought there was a more delicious combination than chilli, wine and
     chocolate, but add the fourth ingredient of Jamie’s lips and finally my mouth was in heaven.
    My mouth felt like I’d been chewing on cotton. And when I opened my eyes, sticky with yesterday’s mascara and found myself
     staring into the T-shirt of Jamie, half of it balled in my mouth, sucked in through a sleep vacuum, I realised this was exactly
     what had happened. I lifted my head very slowly from his chest, leaving a trail of dribble on the bunched-up T-shirt. I glanced
     up, but he was snoozing like a very attractive baby.
    What the hell happened here last night? How did I fall asleep right on him? Was he even still alive, or had I crushed him
     to death?
    I moved a hand as carefully as I could and held a finger under his nose. Yes, he was breathing. Now the real question … was
     I wearing underwear?
    Yes. Although my dress had ridden up to my stomach, my knickers were very much in place, even if they were rubbing up against
     the crotch of his jeans. Okay. So we can’t have done ‘it’. Probably. But we were very close together, so much so that, to
     be honest, I felt a bit clammy. I used my spare hand, i.e. the one not screaming with pins and needles as it was currently
     wedged under Jamie’s triceps, to rub my fuzzy teeth until they squeaked with a whimper of cleanness.
    I lifted my head and – oooh – that was a hangover waiting to happen.
    Jamie opened his eyes and met mine. We stared at each other for a moment, my body tense, very aware of it pressing down on
     his, and suddenly very aware of my full bladder.
    ‘Hello,’ I tested the waters.
    ‘
Ciao
Bella.’ He cracked a smile. He wasn’t revolted by me; this was a good start.
    ‘How are you?’ Formality is always a good start when lying atop of someone, in their bed, with a big old mind-blank and a
     rucked-up dress.
    ‘Very well, and yourself?’
    ‘Not too bad. Thank you.’ I peered around his room, searching for conversation or at least a way to say
Please could you tell me if your bits were introduced to mine last night
. I saw the empty black bottle that had housed the chilli wine that was now thumping about inside my bladder like an angry
     inmate. ‘That chilli wine … that’s some good stuff you’ve got going on there. Strong.’
    Jamie nodded. ‘But without it, this magical night may never have happened.’
    Oh God.
    ‘Magical … did you have a, um, favourite part?’
    ‘Every inch of your body.’ Jamie inhaled, a lazy smile spreading across his face before he stroked my hair and I struggled
     not to pee myself in panic. ‘What about you? What was your favourite part?’
    ‘Hahaha, your body is pretty good too, Mister!’
Shit, shit, shit, REMEMBER
.
    ‘But as wonderful, as unforgettable as our lovemaking was, it was nothing compared to the honour you did for me afterwards.’
    I had no idea what I did. Did I give him a—
    ‘Thank you,
mia Bella
, you have made my heart sing.’
    ‘No problem …’ I sat up
