the couch for you.”

“Thank you. Do you need in here?”

“Yeah, but I can wait until you’re done.”

“I’m done,” he said and slid past me.

I went in and closed the door. What was wrong with me? I’d seen him plenty of times at the beach with no shirt on and wet from the ocean but tonight it was making me forget how to talk. It had to be, because I knew he was going to be here all night. I didn’t have another explanation at the moment.

I finished in the bathroom and walked back into the living room. Major wasn’t in there so that meant he was in my room. The door was open so I walked in. I wasn’t expecting to see him lounging on my bed in just his boxer briefs with only the bedside light on.

All I could do was stare at him. It was a sight to behold.

He patted the spot beside him. “Come and join me.”

“I … uh …” was all I managed to say.

“Kayleigh, close the door and come sit with me.”

It sounded more like a suggestion, than a demand, and I found myself doing exactly what he asked. I sat on the bed and crossed my legs. I had no idea what to do because I didn’t know what he was thinking.

“Relax,” he told me. “I thought since I was here it would be a good opportunity for you to sleep with me. And I mean just sleep, no sex or anything sexual, unless you want to of course.”

His signature grin was back. Between his words and his smile, I relaxed. I laid back on my pillow and looked up at him.

“How exactly is this supposed to help me? I assume this is part of my training,” I said, using air quotes.

“You want to be more comfortable sexually right?”

I nodded.

“So that means being more comfortable around men. Do you agree?”

“I guess so.”

“Then I conclude that sleeping next to me will help to get you more comfortable around men in general.”

I giggled. “I’m not sure that’s a valid experiment.”

“Fuck it,” he said, grinning and laid down beside me.

Chapter 50

Major

I wasn’t exactly a small guy, and it was only a twin bed so it took some maneuvering to find the best position to lie in. We ended up with both of us on our sides, my chest facing her back. I put my arm over her and pulled her closer so that she was touching almost the full length of my body.

Kayleigh moved a little, I think to get comfortable, but her ass wiggled right on my dick. I knew what was going to happen but I waited to see her reaction. Being this close to Kayleigh in her little shorts and shirt was bound to make me hard. Hell, that’s exactly what happened this morning and she wasn’t lying next to me then.

She stopped moving when she felt me growing hard against her. I wasn’t expecting the giggle that escaped from her mouth.

“Should I apologize?” she asked.

“Never apologize for making me hard. But just so you know it’s a natural reaction when you wiggle your ass like that and it’s anywhere close to my dick.”

“I wasn’t doing it on purpose.”

“I know, but I wouldn’t mind if you did.”

She was quiet for a minute before saying six words that I’d probably never forget.

“Major, I want to touch you.”

My almost hard dick was suddenly rock hard. Never in my life had just the thought of a woman touching me affected me so strongly.

“You’re welcome to touch me anywhere you want. Did you have something specific in mind?”

She nodded.

“I’m all yours,” I told her. “Just tell me what you need.”

She pulled the covers back. “Move to your back,” she told me.

I did. I was curious what she had in mind. The lamp was still on so I could see her face. I loved watching her watch me. She moved so that she had her legs on either side of mine. She started by running her hand from my chest to the top of my underwear. It wasn’t hard to miss how hard my dick was right now.

Her hand brushed my dick through my underwear and a hiss escaped my lips. She was barely touching me and I felt like I could already come. Kayleigh tugged my boxer briefs down just enough so she could get to my cock.

When she wrapped her hand around me I had to close my eyes and take a few deep breaths. She was
