brushes his lips until he opens his mouth. Our tongues dance, and I push on him until he’s on his back.
I sink down onto his length and roll my hips.
“Fuck me, you’re a goddess.” Chance pushes himself up and grabs my face in his hands. “No more running when you get scared. If it happens, we talk about it; we work through it.”
“I promise. No running.” I slam my lips down on his. Chance grabs handfuls of my ass, and we move together. I pull back, and he leans down and sucks my nipple into his mouth. I hug his head to my breasts and moan, “I’m gonna come.” I throw my head back as I come over and over.
Chance pulls out and flips us until I’m on all fours. He grabs my hip with one hand and lines up his cock with the other. With both of his hands on my hips, he pounds into me at a punishing pace.
My body is covered in sweat, but I don’t care. I need this—to feel him. I push back against him. “Fuck, baby. I’m going to come so hard.”
He grabs me, pumps once, twice, and then plants himself deep as I feel him come inside of me. Chance kisses my back and pulls out of me, flopping to his back, and pulling me into his arms.
Earlier we FaceTimed his parents and told them about Oregon. Chance Sr. was very excited for us, but I felt bad because Aubrey started to cry. She, of course, was happy; she is going to miss her boy.
When we FaceTimed my parents, my dad is the one who, well …. he didn’t cry, but he looked really sad. They could see that we are happy, and I promised that any time they want to FaceTime with Ava they can.
“That went well, don’t you think?” I ask as I kiss the underside of Chance’s chin.
“Yeah, but I felt bad that my mom cried.”
I give him a squeeze. “She’s happy for us, though.”
“She is. Tomorrow I thought we could start looking at apartments.”
I nod and bury my nose in his neck. “That sounds great.” I rest my chin on my hands that rest on his chest. “I love you. I’m sorry I hurt you.”
“Baby, it’s over; let’s not think about that. Let’s get through this week, and then we’re done.”
I squeal, “Graduation!”
We get settled under the sheet, my back snug up against his chest, and in no time I fall asleep.

I’ve done it! I’ve finally graduated college. After we tossed our caps, I caught mine as it came back down and went looking for my man.
“Mommy!” I hear my girl squeal as she comes running toward me. I scoop her up into my arms and kiss all over her face. “You did it!”
“I did. Should we look for Chance?” I set her down and grab her hand in mine.
She drags me even though she has no idea where we’re going. We can’t find him, but I spot his parents and sister standing with mine. “Hi, guys.” I hug Chance Sr. and Aubrey then gives Bree a cheek touch since she’s now got my daughter in her arms. “Have you guys seen Chance?”
“No, sweetheart, we figured he was with you,” Aubrey says as she looks around. “He seems to know everyone; it could take a while for him to get here.”
I turn around and spot Chance’s best friend, Trey, coming toward me. He hands me a pink rose. “Um … thank you.” He smiles and then walks away. Hunter, his fraternity president, comes toward me and also hands me a pink rose.
I look at my parents and then at Chance’s. My heart beats rapidly, and I feel faint. Two guys from his soccer team hand Ava and me a pink rose. When I have ten perfect roses in my hands and Ava’s got two, I see my man.
He is in gray, fitted dress pants and a white dress shirt with the sleeves rolled up. Chance stops in front of me. “What are you doing?” I whisper as tears slide down my cheeks.
He gives me his signature cocky grin and gets down on one knee.
“Oh my God,” his sister says from behind me.
My mom takes my flowers from me before he grabs my hand. “I want you to listen to me. I love you.” He smiles at Ava, and she throws her arms around his neck. “I love you too, Ava.”
“I wuv you, Chas.” I cover my mouth to stifle
