“I never want to forget how this feels,” I breathed.

His voice was shaky. “Why the fuck didn’t we do it like this sooner?”

I bucked my hips, meeting his thrusts. “Because we’re stupid?”

We laughed over each other’s lips, and he pounded me harder, as if to punish us for losing any opportunity to have amazing sex like this.

“Fuck, Teagan... I’m losing it,” he groaned.

I nodded vigorously, letting him know I was ready, too. Almost immediately, I felt his body quake and the warmth of his cum filling me. Our bodies rocked back and forth together until we came down from the high.

Still inside of me, Caleb showered my neck and breasts with kisses. I’d never felt more loved by anyone in my life, though I knew love couldn’t be what this was. He just had me fooled in the moment.

When he finally pulled out, I tightened my grip on him. “Please don’t leave me tonight.”

“I won’t, baby. I promise. I’ll be here all night.”

Pulling on his hair, I began to kiss him again, and over the next several minutes, I could feel his erection growing for a second round. The muscles between my legs contracted, immediately wanting him again.

And so we made love all night. It was almost morning by the time we fell asleep.***When the light came through my window the next day, it felt intrusive. Today was the day I would lose Caleb, and the sun was a most unwelcome sight.

Caleb stirred and turned to me. He kissed me passionately before he asked, “Are you okay?”

“No,” I said.

“Neither am I. And that was the dumbest fucking question ever, wasn’t it?” He sighed. “Can we just stay in this spot forever?”

My chest constricted. “I wish.”

We lay together until the clock dictated that we force ourselves up.

To my surprise, when we ventured upstairs to the kitchen, it was empty.

I suspected Maura knew we might need some privacy and had arranged for everyone to leave the house for a while. My suspicions were confirmed when she sent me a text .Maura: Just FYI, we went to the city to the farmer’s market. We won’t be back until at least ten. Love you.“Someone texted?” Caleb asked.

“Maura. She said they won’t be coming back until ten.”

He looked surprised. “Really...”

“Yeah.”

A few minutes later, as I buttered a piece of toast at the counter, I felt Caleb come up behind me. He kissed my neck softly, and the hairs on my skin rose to attention.

His erection pressed against my ass, and I felt the need for him again between my legs.

The next thing I knew, he’d lifted my shirt and moved my underwear to the side. He entered me in one rough movement. I gasped at the feel of him inside of me, and with both hands gripping the counter, I closed my eyes in ecstasy as Caleb took me from behind. We’d make the best of these last minutes together. Instead of wallowing, we’d go out with a bang.***Of course, all good things must come to an end, and ours had arrived.

Things were quiet and somber the rest of the morning as my family reappeared and Caleb gathered the last of his things and packed them into my father’s Subaru. The entire family would drive Caleb to Logan Airport. As much as I didn’t want to say goodbye in front of them, I also figured it might be less painful if I didn’t totally lose my shit. So, it would be better that they would be there. I’d have to keep myself under control.

The ride felt surreal. Caleb and I had probably never said less to each other, but there simply were no words to describe how we felt.

When we got to the airport, Maura said, “Why don’t we all say goodbye to Caleb at the curb? And then, Teagan, you can walk him inside.”

So much for using my family as a buffer.

I got out of the car and watched as Maura hugged Caleb tightly. Tears streamed down her cheeks. My dad patted Caleb hard on the back. Caleb looked almost numb, as if he were just going through the motions of saying goodbye to them. Last was Shelley, who started bawling when he took her into his arms and lifted her up. I felt my first tear fall. Caleb’s eyes shut tight, but he didn’t cry.

I followed him to the outdoor station where he checked his luggage, and then we entered the sliding glass doors to the airport. Hand in hand, we walked until we reached the point where I could no longer accompany him.

We stood facing each other as he brushed the hair out of my face.

He swallowed. “This is one of the hardest moments of my life.”

I closed my eyes and started to cry.

He wiped my tears with his thumbs. “Teagan, look at me for a moment. I need you to know something.”
