that now because I seriously can’t wait any longer.
Bending my knees a little, I line my cock up with Josh’s hole and start to push inside that incredible, tight heat. I wrap my arms around his body and snap my hips, burying my cock deep inside him in one hard thrust.
He lets out a harsh, strangled groan, followed by the stream of babbled curses that I’m becoming so wonderfully familiar with. And it just encourages me to go harder, because I know he can take everything I have to give him.
I grab a fistful of his hair and yank his head back so I can slam my lips against his in a frantic, messy kiss. And if someone were to walk through the hallway outside Josh’s apartment right now there’d be a raised eyebrow, for sure. Between Josh slapping his palms against the door’s wood and the constant groaning and grunting from both of us, there’s no mistaking what’s going on right now.
I feel Josh’s ass clamp down around my dick as he reaches his orgasm and the sensation is like a trigger, sending me hurtling over the edge and coming hard into the condom as I’m unable to hold back my climax any longer.
I wrap my arms around him and bend my head down to nuzzle at his neck. “You were right, you know—those were definitely the best noodles I’ve ever tasted.”
“Huh?” he asks, sounding completely dazed.
I merely chuckle and hold him tighter.

“Shit, my hands are sweating,” I mumble, wiping my palms over my jeans to try to rectify the situation.
Connor merely chuckles. “You don’t need to be nervous, babe—it’s not like you’ve never met them before.”
“That’s exactly why I’m nervous.” I let out a harsh sigh and lift a hand to rake through my hair. “Fuck, this would be so much easier if they were complete strangers.”
“Hey, look at me,” Connor says in a gentle tone as he takes my hand and pulls me a few paces away from the house, making sure to bring Chase’s stroller with him. “My family’s cool—you know this.”
I nod. “I know…it’s just…”
“I thought the Declan thing wasn’t an issue for you anymore?” He asks, clearly concerned.
“No, it’s not. Not in theory,” I say.
“What the hell does that mean?”
“It means…I know no one really cares, but that doesn’t mean there won’t be…comments…”
He lets out a soft chuckle, his face clearing with realization. “You’re worried they’re going to make fun of you for dating your way through the Kelly brothers?”
“Two out of eight is not ‘dating my way through the Kelly brothers’,” I say defensively.
“It’s a quarter of us,” Connor says with a shrug. “That’s a pretty sizeable chunk.”
I narrow my eyes at him. “Weren’t you supposed to be helping?”
With an incredibly annoying grin, he throws an arm around me and pulls me in close. “Okay, how’s this for helping. Let me offer some reassurance, babe—my siblings will absolutely, one hundred percent make fun of you.”
“How is that helping?”
“Because now you know for sure what’s coming down the pike you can be prepared. Just remember the best defense is a good offense. Keep your eye on the ball. Hit ‘em where it hurts.”
“Um, okay—I never really played sports so I have no idea what you’re telling me to do right now, but does it involve physical violence? I’m not sure I’m on board with that.”
“Don’t worry, you can leave any physical attacks to me,” he says. “I’ll gladly defend your honor, baby. With my bare hands if need be.”
I let out a sputter of laughter, smiling affectionately up at him. “You’re an idiot.”
He grins and presses a soft kiss to my lips. “And you’re not freaking out anymore.”
“Nope.”
“Okay then, let’s go in.” He turns and guides the stroller back up the drive, ringing the bell once we’re at the porch. I’ve been to Connor’s parents’ house so many times over the years I’ve lost count, but this feels completely different. Different even to all the times I came here as Declan’s boyfriend.
The door is opened by Connor’s oldest sister, Bridie, who beams at us in her usual friendly way. “You’re here! Oh, everyone’s so excited to see you. Is this the little guy?” she asks, looking down at Chase.
Connor rolls his eyes. “No, this is just some random baby we found on the ferry.”
Bridie cuts him an annoyed look. “Don’t be an a-hole, little brother.”
She steps aside, allowing us to enter the house with Chase.
As soon as the rest of the Kellys spot us,
