miss what took place next. It was hilarious, after all, she was the one who chose that movie, so I had to think that maybe, just maybe, there was an ulterior motive behind her choice.
A guy could hope.
My mind continued to wander back to the grind session that started our evening. Every time I did I could feel myself growing hard all over again. For a timid little thing, her body didn’t react like someone with very little experience. Kissing her set the hidden temptress inside of her loose and control was thrown right out the window.
For both of us actually.
I had a feeling we were going to be dangerous together and I could barely control the excitement I felt to jump in head fucking first. I was ready to be destroyed by this girl. Ready to let her bring me to my knees.
A loud shrill filtered from the surround sound and her body slightly jerked in surprise but nothing like before. It was more of a twitch.
Ruby’s leg was lifted up over mine, her foot tucked under my leg. One hand rested upon my chest and the other rested beneath her cheek. With every breath I took I could smell something floral and sweet, a mixture of her shampoo and I assumed perfume. She felt so small tucked in close.
My arm was around her, my hand rested on her hip. My other was bent and tucked beneath my head. Being like this with her felt comfortable.
Again the echo of screams filled the room and I waited for her to react only she didn’t.
Leaning in a little closer, I listened and smiled when I heard her breathing evenly, the small resemblance of a light snore each time she exhaled. I knew this from the many times we’d been on the phone late at night and she’d fallen asleep.
Careful not to wake her, I reached for the controller and hit mute, afraid that the screams I knew where coming would wake her. I wanted to keep her like this for as long as I could. Holding her felt right.
Turning my own body toward her, I pulled her as close as I could and felt her lips brush against my neck and again my body reacted without control. I paused, waiting for the surge of need to subside before I started to relax once again. She cuddled in, finding the perfect space, and when she did I decided that space was now hers for as long as she wanted it.
Her hair tickled my nose and I closed my eyes, welcoming the comfort that began settling over me. My own body relaxed to hers, my thoughts completely surrounded by the beautiful girl in my arms.
Fuck, I’d do this very thing every single night if she’d allow me. I wondered if this was how my brothers felt when they found their girls. Like a sucker punch in the gut.
Concentrating on her soft purrs, I gave in to the feeling and the darkness engulfed me.
I wasn’t sure how much time had passed, but Ruby stirring against me woke me. She was attempting to roll away and I hooked her waist pulling her back to me. Her back pressed tightly against my chest, my hand spread out over her lower stomach.
“Stay,” I whispered sleepily and she looked back over her shoulder at me. Her eyes appeared sleepy, her hair a bit of a mess. “Stay here,” I repeated and she looked hesitant. “I wanna hold you, just like this.”
“I shouldn’t.” She bit her lower lip and I was reminded of what my sister said, the fact that Ruby’s home life was a bit of a wreck. She was indecisive because of her father.
“Call him and tell him you’re staying with Darcy.” For a second she looked surprised and then she looked away. “You’re old enough to make your own choices, Ruby. You shouldn’t let him make you feel bad for it.”
She nodded, but had yet to grab her phone.
“Do you want to stay?”
A few seconds passed and she took in a slow deep breath before she met my gaze. “Yes.” I felt the tension leave me immediately. For a second I thought she’d tell me no.
“Then stay here with me.” I cupped her jaw and brought my lips to hers. Slowly, teasingly, I kiss her, only skimming over her lips with the tip of my tongue. I wanted to deepen the kiss, damn, I wanted to climb over her and drive her crazy. But instead I
