real.”

“We’ll work on it together then. Okay?”

She bit her lip and nodded, looking adorably miserable.

“These things take time. You believed those things about yourself for a long time, right?”

“That I was—” She stopped herself short of actually saying ‘chubby’ at the look on my face. I cocked an eyebrow and waited. “Yes.”

“How long?”

“Since . . . I guess since I started to get, you know.”

“Womanly curves?” I asked with a small smile. She nodded, and I pulled her against my chest.

“And then what?”

“I guess I developed a little bit, um, quicker than the other girls.”

“And you got attention for that?”

“Yeah, but I didn’t like it.”

“I understand, sweetheart. I’m sorry. You really don’t understand how beautiful you are.” I tipped her head back so she was looking at me. “But I’m going to show you.”

I stared down at her beautiful face and ran my thumb over her lower lip.

“Right . . . now.”

Chapter Forty-Six

Melissa

“Oh,” I sighed in pleasure as Nick’s lips crashed down on mine. The kiss was urgent, insistent, demanding. But it was different from kissing him in the past. This time, I knew where it would end.

It would end with us naked and writhing. I shivered at the thought of making love with him again. I hadn’t had time to be shy last night. I just didn’t know where we would end up doing it.

My family’s house was limited in places to actually spread out.

“Are you sore?” he asked breathlessly as he ripped his lips away from mine. I knew why he was asking. I couldn’t help but be touched by how considerate he was.

“No. I’m . . . I’m fine.”

“Good.”

I felt myself lifted up into the air. I stared at Nick’s serious face as he carried me through the house and up the stairs. We ended up in my bedroom.

On my twin bed.

“Nick? How are we going to fit?”

“We’ll fit,” he growled, removing my clothing and then his own.

“I mean on the bed,” I giggled.

“We’re getting a new bed. Soon,” he answered. “I want to fix the place up.”

“You do? I mean, you don’t have to—” He cut me off with a kiss and a murmured shush. But he was right. We were onto doing . . . other things.

I’d been a virgin twenty-four hours before. It was hard to believe how nervous I had been. But now . . . I was eager for him. For his touch.

Eager for his gorgeous cock inside me.

“Hurry,” I urged him, ripping his shirt off.

“I want to taste you,” he said. I shook my head.

“No. Please. I don’t want to wait.”

He growled and disappeared long enough to kick his pants off. Then he was back, angling his cock down toward me. I gasped as I felt the silky, hot head press against my outer lips.

“Fuck, you’re so wet. Goddamn, Melissa,” he groaned as he sank inside me. I gripped his shoulders, feeling the thick muscles give just slightly under my fingertips.

I said something incoherent as he moved above me, his dark eyes focused on mine. It was so intimate, so intense, with us staring into each other’s eyes. But I loved it. I could not have looked away if I tried.

He grunted like an animal when my body clamped down on his instinctively. It was unconscious. I wondered if I could actually control it . . . I tried and he moaned.

Well, that was interesting.

So I did it again.

Nick captured my hands over my head and growled at me.

“What are you doing, Melissa?”

I rocked my hips and squeezed him.

“Hmm?” was my reply. I was feeling way too much pleasure to stop. In fact . . . “Oh, oh, oh!”

My head tossed on the pillow. The same old pillow I’d slept on since childhood. But everything felt different. I was a woman now. A woman who knew how to give herself and her man pleasure. It was almost impossible to believe, but it was true.

My breasts rubbed against his chest with every thrust of his hips. Having my arms lifted over my head like that was making my orgasm even more intense. I couldn’t move, other than arching my back.

Nick cursed and started pumping his cock into me hard and fast. He hissed with pleasure and froze. I felt him expand inside me, if that were even possible. He was already so large that he filled me completely. But it didn’t hurt. He felt just right. Tingles spread out from my center and then exploded in a bright fireworks show inside my
