Xavier's POV "O-Okay.." Esme stuttered. "Close your eyes please. As I said, I want to surprise you. And please tell me if it hurts." She c****d her head to the side a little and looked into my eyes, her beautiful chestnut eyes locking within my own green ones. Esme's eyes fluttered as she closed them, her hands on the counter behind her as she stood there waiting for me to do what I planned to do. When she told me earlier that my touch eased her pain, all I wanted to do was hold her and never let her go, and then she asked me to stay with her. I knew why, she wanted me to hold her while she slept so that her pain was gone. I'll gladly be used in any way as long as I get to touch her soft skin. I moved closer to her and placed my hand on her cheek then moved it into her hair. Esme suck
