the sheets made when he tucked his legs behind mine was a soft swoosh, caressing my senses.
I was on the edge of whimpering like a little girl when I felt his tongue on my neck, kissing me, tasting me.
“I do want to,” I whispered, my eyes fluttering closed as if I was afraid he’d hear me.
Silence followed my words for at least a full minute.
“It’s okay, Rose. Go back to sleep,” he whispered back.
How could I when his hard-on was getting harder and harder to ignore? I squeezed my eyes shut and went for it.
“I didn’t think you’d ask me.”
“Ask you what?”
Groaning, I turned my head and burrowed it into the pillow, trying to be careful with my nose. “It sounds weird when I say it out loud.”
“How would you know that if you don’t say it? Come on, let’s hear it.”
Releasing my breath, I opened my eyes and looked out the windows in the terrace doors. “I thought when it happened, it’d just…happen.”
His hand let go of mine and he started stroking my waist and then my arm. “What do you mean exactly?”
How could I think of anything when he was touching me?
“I’m not sure if you’ve noticed that I talk a big talk, Jack, but I’m not exactly an expert when it comes to getting busy. I’m not saying I’m bad or anything, I’m just saying I’m nothing special when it comes down to it. I’ve only been with three and a half people—”
“Half? No, I take it back. I don’t want to know. I already want to kill all three and a half of them.”
“Cute. You know I’m a romantic, so I thought when the time came, you’d just wake me up in the middle of the night and take me, you know, because you couldn’t wait any longer…or we’d walk into the apartment and you’d just lift me up and I would wrap my legs around you and you’d say fuck it and we’d go for it, or you could push me against a wall and do it like that. I didn’t think you’d ask my permission to have sex with me. It’s making me feel nervous.”
“Sounds like you’ve been thinking about the logistics of this.”
“Of course I have.”
“I didn’t ask your permission.”
“It was implied.”
“You feeling nervous about something? I wouldn’t believe it if I saw it with my own eyes.”
Frowning, I turned my head so I could look at him as his fingers pressed into my skin, holding me at my waist. “Are you making fun of me?”
I caught his smile right before he captured my lips in a deep kiss and my eyes closed on their own. I slowly slipped my tongue in, brushing it against his as I turned onto my back so I could kiss him deeper. This time he let me, and his response was glorious. His fingers lifted the bottom of my shirt and, with no hesitation whatsoever, he pushed his hand right down into my underwear, going straight for my core.
I moaned into his mouth and let my thighs fall open. He growled right back and pushed one finger inside me then he slowly added another. My body offered no resistance, already wet for him. I made a low sound in the back of my throat when he pushed his fingers as deep as they would go, moving excruciatingly slowly.
I just kept kissing him through it, holding his face to me with both of my hands, hungrier by the second. I was so ready for this, for us to be a real thing, and this was sealing the deal. We had done everything backward—I’d even fallen for him before having an official first date—but this…this would make everything right.
When I was sure he wasn’t ending the kiss before I wanted him to, my hands managed to find their way down into his pants, and the kiss turned into something much different once I had my hand wrapped around the base of his cock.
Still kissing him uncontrollably, I took a deep breath through my nose and whimpered into his mouth when he started fingering me in earnest, his thumb firmly pressing on my clit. I moved my hips as much as I could, his hand driving me out of my mind.
My body burning and tingling at the same time, I tore my mouth away from his and bit on my lip to hold in an embarrassingly long and loud moan. My hand tightened around his cock. I could hear all
