She burst out in laughter and hugged him tightly.
He pulled out of her, rolled to the side, and took her with him.
They stayed that way for a long time, and she could feel herself start to drift asleep when he kissed her forehead.
“How are you doing, baby?”
She thought about it for a moment and then looked up at him. “Really good.”
“You’re not sore?”
“No, I don’t think so. I don’t hurt anywhere.”
“Good. Thank you for trusting me,” he said.
“I’ve trusted you from the start.”
“And I’m so glad you did. You know you’re mine forever, right?”
She smiled. “And you’re mine.”
“You’re damn right I am.”
She giggled, tucked her head down, and closed her eyes. “Good night, Daddy.”
“Good night, baby.”
He snuggled her closer to his chest, and it made her sigh and instantly fall asleep.
She was where she was meant to be, and she would do everything to stay right there.
