date for later?” he asked as he stood and held out a hand to help me to my feet.

We moved down our row to the aisle. “Absolutely not! I think I might never let you go!” I said with a laugh.

Stopping in his tracks, he cupped my cheek and searched my face. “I’m counting on that,” he murmured before leading me out of the auditorium.

“Accidentally In Love”—Counting Crows

Was it possible to fall in love with someone you’d known less than two months? We hadn’t had but a couple actual dates… that hadn’t ended well up to that point. She’d been determined to hate me. Yet, there I was so deep in it that I couldn’t see my way out—didn’t want to see a way out.

I’d been prepared to exit the interstate to catch the highway that cut off toward her house when she shocked the living shit out of me.

“Um, can we go to your place?”

Blinking rapidly, I went over her question in my head a few times, trying to figure out if I’d heard her correctly. When I still wasn’t sure, I chanced a glance in her direction.

“Excuse me?”

“I—um, never mind,” she murmured as her face flushed a deep red.

“No!” It burst out too harsh and too loud, causing her to jump. I had to take a deep breath to calm myself. “I mean, no, I only asked because I thought I surely heard you wrong. Hell, yes, I’d love to take you to my place.”

A shy smile curled her perfect lips, and my dick stood at attention. Down, boy. She might only want to watch movies.

The entire way to my neighborhood, my heart was damn near exploding at the anticipation. I kept wondering, was this it? Were we doing the horizontal mambo, or was I reading too much into this? Also, calling it the horizontal mambo seemed a shitty thing to do, even if it was only in my head.

Nerves damn near shot, I pulled into my garage and shut the car off. Then I was torn between racing around the vehicle to get her out of the car and into my house and playing it cool.

Because I was afraid I might fall on my face, I went for the play it cool option.

As I assisted her out of the low-slung car, I wet my lips. “You are truly stunning,” I said on a sigh. Yeah, I sound like a total sap. Too bad I didn’t care.

Her breath hitched, then she pressed her hands flat to my chest and slid them up to curl around the back of my neck. As she closed in, I fought to behave. Terrified I’d scare her away like a wild animal if I moved too fast, I softly held her hips as I searched her eyes.

“Kiss me,” she whispered.

When she rose up to press her lips to mine, I groaned. What started as a tentative brush of her lips quickly morphed into a breath-stealing kiss. Tongues seeking and tasting, we leaned into each other. Her breasts were on my chest, and I gripped her hips tightly to thrust against her, showing her exactly what she was doing to me.

We broke apart, her gasping for air and me with equally ragged breaths.

“You’re going to be the death of me,” I groaned as she cautiously took one hand, slid it between us, and wrapped it around my stiff length. When she slid her hand up and down it, I lost my fucking mind.

Squeezing her ass cheeks in my hands, I lifted her to be able to tilt her hips just so. It pushed her clit and the heat of her pussy against my painfully erect cock. “Point of no return. We’re going inside, and I’m fucking you into tomorrow, or I’m taking you home for the night. Because I can’t be held responsible if we stay here and you say no.”

“And if I’m not saying no?” Her words were a feathered whisper in my ear that sent chills down to my toes.

With a growl, I hit the garage door button with the side of my fist and burst into my house. Her teeth bit into the side of my neck, and my cock jumped against her. Brazenly, she ground against my length.

Too far gone for pleasantries and offers of a drink, I burst into my bedroom and set her on the side of my bed. The buttons of my shirt became a nuisance as I fought to undo them as quickly as I could.

“Shirt,
