A loving heart is beg beginning of all knowledge

The full moonlight caressed the two naked bodies lying next to each other on the bed. The man lay on his back with closed eyes, breathing evenly, deeply asleep. The woman next to him had one leg draped over his, an arm across his abdomen, her head propped on her hand as she watched the man’s face with a loving expression. Buffy’s heart threatened to burst with happiness as she let her eyes roam Giles’ face and naked body.

After the emotional rollercoaster ride at the Magic Box earlier had thankfully come to a stop, Giles had held Buffy in a tender embrace for hours. They had talked about everything. They’d cleared up misunderstandings, expressed their feelings and shared affectionate kisses and caresses.

There had been a slight interruption when Joyce had cautiously knocked on the door, before smilingly letting them know she was heading back to the museum.

Much later they had regretfully let each other go to get up from the couch. They found only Anya in the main room, telling them that the others left with an offer to patrol for Buffy that evening so she could get much needed undisturbed time with Giles. That had immediately prompted him to take the rest of the day off to be with her, much to Buffy’s delight.

Their plans for a picnic were quickly discarded when they’d gone to Giles’ house to prepare food and had ended up in bed instead. For hours they had brought each other to pleasurable hes, us, until they had fallen asleep from both physical and mental exhaustion. Both had been sleeping restfully until now, when Buffy had been woken up by a barking dog outside. When she sensed no danger, she had forfeited falling back to sleep so she could watch Giles instead.

God, how she loved him! He completed her in ways she didn’t think were possible. It truly didn’t hurt that he was a tiger in bed. Buffy couldn’t help but giggle when she thought of Giles’ expression when she had told him that earlier. If someone could pull off an embarrassed and proud look at the same time, it was him.

“What are you laughing about?” a sleepy voice suddenly said. Her eyes jumped back to his face. He was sporting a slight smile but his eyes were still closed. Buffy chastised herself for waking him when she heard how tired he sounded.

She soothingly stroked his stomach to make him fall back asleep and she whispered, “Sshh, go back to sleep, it was nothing.” A couple of minutes passed, and she thought he had fallen back asleep when he suddenly broke the silence of the room.

“If you think what you are doing right now is going to put me back to sleep, you clearly don’t know me as well as I thought you did.” Buffy glanced down at her hand on his stomach and then her eyes were drawn to the result of her ministrations. She couldn’t stop a giggle from escaping.

The giggle turned into a full blown laugh as she suddenly found herself on her back with Giles’s body covering hers.

“You better be giggling at how easy I am, rather than what you just laid your eyes on” he playfully growled.

Her laugh turned into a moan as he proceeded to kiss his way down her chest and place his lips on her breast.

“Giles, I am not sure I can do this again” she laughed.

“But Buffyyyy”, he playfully whined as he made his was back to her mouth. After a kiss that made Buffy’s entire body shiver his lips traced their way to her neck. “You did say ALL night. I’m just keeping up my end of the bargain. You should as well.” Hiding a grin against her collarbone he continued. “If not, I’d consider it a breach of contract. And I’m not sure you want to be around for the repercussions.”
Buffy squirmed in pleasure as he kept moving his kisses down her front again, responding breathlessly, “Considering we spent the majority of the day in bed, I think I’ve more than fulfilled my part of the bargain”

“Pffft” he said into her bellybutton. That caused her moan to turn into a giggle. “Technicalities.”

She lifted her head to look down at him as he placed his cheek on her stomach while looking up at her.

“Did you just ‘pffft’ me?” she asked, delighted in this playful side she saw too rarely. All he did was respond with an adoring smile and a nod, before he resumed his kisses on her stomach and moved lower.

“Are you sure I can’t change you mind, luv?”

When she didn’t respond, but only spread her legs wider, he assumed that mission was accomplished. When Buffy felt his mouth on her, she fisted her hand into the sheets to anchor herself. Waves of pleasure washed over her, and it didn’t take long for her to scream out in pleasure.

Giles let his hands lovingly stroke her body as he raised up, positioning himself between her legs, letting sweet kisses drop over her flushed face.

“Open your eyes, luv”, he whispered in a husky voice, and when she did he slowly sheathed himself inside her.

“Oh God” was all she was able to say, and felt her heart beat furiously as he moved inside her. As he moved faster, he was unable to keep his eyes locked with hers due to the overwhelming pleasure. To compensate, he lowered his mouth to hers and pushed her arms above her head. He traced her arm slowly with his hand and tangled his fingers with hers.
Over and over their bodies crashed together, and he was regretfully forced to let her mouth go when they both reached the breaking p.
.

He collapsed on top of her as his strength failed him, but kept moving slightly to savor the after shocks. As their breathing slowed, he was unable to fully remove himself from her, but slid down on his side, so only half of his body was crushing her.

After a few minutes she opened her eyes and turned her head so she could look at him.
“That was indescribable,” she said as she let one of her hands lovingly stroke his cheek.

“You took the words right out of my mouth” he answered and placed a feather soft kiss to her mouth. With a sleepy smile he rolled over on his back and pulled her close.

“I love you Buffy,” he whispered as he felt her breathing deepen. Just as he was about to succumb to sleep himself he heard her mumble, “I love you too Giles”.
