I’d known you were here. But I certainly can’t deny that I’m thrilled to meet you. I was just telling my son that he needs to come to dinner and bring you with him.”
“Mom.” Kyle’s voice was low and carried a tenor of caution.
Sharon shot him a glare and said, “I’m not going to embarrass Kimberly by continuing this conversation further. I’ll let you two discuss it.” Now, beaming her smile upon Kimberly, she added, “I hope you’ll come tomorrow.” She turned and bent to pick up a box from the floor, but Kyle shifted away from Kimberly and took it from his mom. “I’ll carry it to the car for you.”
She watched as mother and son walked out the back door and disappeared from sight. Slumping against the kitchen counter, her mind raced with the events of the past ten minutes. Certainly not the way she expected their morning breakfast to go, and certainly not the way she expected to meet a member of his parents.
With nothing else to do, she glanced at the stove and saw that Sharon had finished the sausage. She quickly scrambled eggs, adding a bit of shredded cheese found in the refrigerator. A moment later, Kyle returned and shut the door behind him. She turned toward him and opened her mouth but discovered she had no idea what to say.
He kept walking until he stopped directly in front of her. Bending, he kissed her lightly. “Babe, I’m so sorry my mom just showed up.”
“It’s fine. I mean, this is your house. I just wish…” Her breath left her lungs in a rush, and she shook her head, then stared at her feet for a moment. Finally, lifting her chin, she held his gaze and groaned, “I can’t believe I met your mom while standing in your shirt and my panties in your kitchen!”
“Yeah, and it was fuckin’ hot. I’ve got to tell you that if my mom hadn’t been here, I’d have bent you over the kitchen table, babe.”
At those words, a rush of heat moved through her, no longer due to embarrassment. “Kyle! You can’t say things like that!”
“Like what?”
“You can’t talk about your mom and then talk about bending me over a table in the same sentence!”
Barking out a laugh, he pulled her close and tucked her head next to his chest. He held her tight for a minute, then mumbled low and soft. “Babe, I’m not such a man that I don’t get that that scene was embarrassing for you. But honestly, it’s fine. I don’t spend the night with other women. My mom hasn’t met a girlfriend of mine in years. I don’t have women come to this house. So, the only thing you and I have to worry about today is my mom running off to the priest to reserve the church.”
Now it was her turn to bark out a laugh, and she felt her chest ease. “I just didn’t want to make a bad impression. Kyle, we’ve only had one true date.”
“Are you planning on dating anyone else while you’re seeing me?”
Rearing back, she shook her head. “Of course not!”
“Then, even if we’ve only known each other a short time, we’re dating exclusively. We want to see where this goes. Sweetheart, you’re beautiful. You were in my house, fixing me breakfast, and I introduced you as my girlfriend. Believe me, my mom is fine with all that.”

Breakfast was over, dishes were rinsed, and Kyle made good on his promise to use the kitchen table for something besides eating. As he rocked into Kimberly’s body, her perfect ass in his hands as she bent forward over the table, he wondered how his legs would hold them when their releases hit at the same time. Panting, he tried to suck in enough oxygen as he pulled her tight against him, his arms wrapped around her front. Slowly pulling out, he turned her so that her breasts were pressed against his chest and he took her lips in a gentle kiss.
He hated that she’d been embarrassed this morning when his mom dropped by but could not say he was sorry at all that she’d met his mother. He had only known her a few days, and yet, everything with her felt… right. Although, he had to admit it might be too early for dinner with the family. Thinking of her meeting all the McBrides, he now had a clear understanding of Sean’s wife, Harper, and Tara’s husband, Carter, when they first
