want to hear anything but her. I sit up with her in my lap, and she binds her legs around my waist. I take her face in my hands. “I love you, beautiful girl.” I kiss her slowly at first, nipping at her bottom lip, running my tongue across it. Then I slowly push my tongue between her lips, exploring her mouth, savoring her taste. I pull back and wait for her to open her eyes and look at me. “Allison, you mean everything to me. I can’t imagine life without you. I miss you when I'm not with you—all I do is think about you...” I pause to get my emotions in check. I was on the verge of losing my shit, and I need to get this off my chest first. She needs to know what she means to me. “Look in my eyes and you will find me, look in my heart and you will find you, my heart beats your name. You have taken up permanent residence inside me, eternally. I’m never going to let you go.”

Allison’s gazing into my eyes, with soft tears running down her cheeks. I kiss them away before finding her lips with mine. I flip us over on the bed, so I’m lying on top of her, my weight balanced on my forearms.

Allison runs her hands through my hair. “I don’t want you to ever let me go. I wish…” She pauses, collecting her thoughts as I stroke the tears from her cheeks. “I wish I could find the words to express to you how much you mean to me.” She brings my lips to hers and kisses me like her last breath depends on it. “Let me show you,” she whispers against my lips as her hands trail down my back, stopping at my boxer briefs. She begins tugging to pull them off. I sit up and discard them, and when I turn back to the bed, her arms are in the air. I lift my shirt over her head and throw it across the room.

I climb back on the bed and position myself on top of her. I can feel her heat against my erection. I need to calm the fuck down, before I push her into something she’s not ready for. I try to pull away, but Allison grabs my arms.

“Make love to me, Liam. I want to feel you inside me. I want to know what it’s like to be one with you. I love you,” she breathes against my lips.

I stare into her emerald eyes, and I can see love and passion. I don’t see any signs of hesitation; she wants this with me. This amazing girl is giving me something she’ll never be able to give another. I swallow hard over the lump in my throat. I’m losing my shit again, and this time, I don’t want to hide it. I want her to see how her gift is affecting me, how she affects me.

Allison smiles up at me. “Liam, you are my soul, I belong to you. I want to share this with you, and only you.”

“You’re mine,” I whisper against her lips. I slowly move my way down to her breast, taking my time with each one. I move my hand to her center and can feel she’s ready for me. It’s then it hits me. “Shit,” I say against her neck.

“What?” she croaks out.

“I don’t have a condom. I didn’t bring you here for this. I just wanted to be with you, alone,” I tell her.

Allison embraces my cheek and lifts up, so I’m looking at her. “Liam, I’m on the pill,” she tells me.

I look at her in question so she continues on. “The week after we became official, Hailey went with me to the clinic. We’re protected.”

“Babe, I would’ve gone with you,” I tell her. I want to be there for her in every way.

She blushes. “I wasn’t sure we would make it this far, but I wanted to be prepared if we did.”

I rest my forehead against hers. “I’m clean, I just had my annual before the semester started, and I haven’t been with anyone since months before then.”

“I trust you, Liam.” I can tell there’s a deeper meaning behind those words.

I nod my head and position myself between her legs. I stop to take in the moment. I’m overwhelmed with want, passion, and need for her. I’m also a little intimidated.

“What’s wrong?” she asks me, concern and what
