into the mountains that overlook the town. When we reach our destination, I back the car in.
“Keep them closed still,” I say as I open my door.
“Okay,” Thea drawls, tipping her head back against the seat. With her eyes scrunched tight, she lifts the flower crown from her head and rests it in her lap.
It’s cold up at Peak Point. We’re the only ones here and I made sure it would stay that way. It’s the most popular place to hook up, but I come here for a different reason. I blow into my hands as I round to the back, opening the trunk so we’ll have the perfect view. Inside the SUV, I built a nest of blankets, pillows, and a strand of battery powered Christmas lights to make it festive. When I click them on, they blink in multicolor.
Once I’m satisfied with the set up, I go to Thea’s door and open it. “Take my hands. I’ll guide you. That’s it—watch your step.”
I want to kiss the crinkle in her nose as I walk backwards toward the rear of the SUV. When I have her in position, I lick my lips.
“Okay. Open.”
Thea’s lashes flutter and she takes in the sight of Ridgeview lit up at night, tiny lights filling the valley below us from the high vantage point.
“Wow,” she breathes.
“Yeah.” I’m looking at her instead of the town below. “I know it’s just Peak Point, but it’s my favorite place. I sit up here for hours when I need to cool my head.”
“It’s so pretty at night.”
“Seeing it all lit up and small reminds me that whatever I’ve turned into a big problem doesn’t have to be in the scope of things.”
She turns to me with a smile. “I love it.”
“You’ll love it more when you turn around. It’s too cold.” Nudging her by the shoulders, I show her the fort I built in the back of the SUV for us. Her delighted laughter echoes off the tree tops as I help her climb in. “Let’s warm up.”
“Thank you. This surprise is amazing,” Thea says once we’re comfortably entwined and burrowed in the blankets to keep out the biting chill. She traces my jaw. “I love you.”
“You make me fall in love with you over and over.” Cradling her face in my hands, I hover my lips over hers. “The world doesn’t matter. Only us. Right here. Only this.”
“Only us,” Thea repeats, her eyes hooded.
I slant my mouth over hers. She plays with the hair at the nape of my neck as we fall into the pile of blankets, kissing like the world could end and we still wouldn’t stop, wouldn’t part from each other.
My hands slide into her coat to get at the curves of her body. She arches against me and a faint moan fills the back of the SUV. I take her mouth again, a rough sound catching in my throat.
This is my favorite place now. Right here, with her in my arms.
Layer by layer, our clothes come off as our bodies tangle together. We close the door to engulf ourselves in a cocoon of our own making. The chill from outside is forgotten as we heat up the back of the car.
“I want you,” Thea begs as I kiss a trail from her breasts down her stomach, settling between her legs.
“Soon, baby.” I stroke her hips and place feather-light kisses over her thighs, then her folds, teasing her until she shakes. I give her a long lick with my tongue where she needs me, enjoying the broken sound that flies past her lips. “First, let me worship you.”
Gripping her thighs, I bury my face between her legs, licking and sucking until Thea is crying out, rolling her hips to ride my face. The sounds she makes while she comes have me grinning against her pussy, my face a mess as I flick my tongue against her clit.
“Love making you fall apart like that,” I rasp, shooting a cocksure look up the length of her body.
“Please, please, I need you now.” Thea tugs on my shoulders, half sitting up to capture my lips in a kiss, moaning into my mouth when she tastes herself on my lips.
Without breaking the kiss, I roll us over, grinding my cock against her. Fuck, her body feels incredible and I can’t wait to drive into her. I fumble around for my pants to get the condom, finally forced to stop kissing her to tear the packet and roll it
