I nod, knowing it’s true. They’ve always been over-the-top in love and were never very good about being discreet with it.

“I want to ask something of you, man to man.”

“Okay,” I say.

“While she stays here, I’d like for her to stay in the guest room.” I start to protest, but he holds his hands up to continue. “You’ve got less than three months left before you graduate and you’re out from under our roof. I ask that you respect us and our home for that short time until you both go to college.”

“Dad. We’re both eighteen. I can get my own place.”

“I know, Ren. And you know that would break your mother’s heart. It’s your last few months before you leave this home forever. Save your money and stay here. Think about Lily and what she’s going through. This is a big change for her, and we want her to feel safe here. I think giving her her own space and respecting a little of her privacy will go a long way to smooth things over. I’m not forcing you, son. I’m asking you as a man to give her this time.”

I think about Lily and her situation, and I know my dad is right. She’s been through so much, and I don’t want to compound that with pressure about being in my bed. Even if it’s not about sex, she might not be ready for so much so fast. I don’t want to push her, and I want to make sure she’s happy here.

“Yes, sir. I can do that,” I say. It won't be easy knowing she’s so close, but I’ll do this for her. “Thank you for letting her stay here.”

“Ren, we’ve grown to love Lily, too. And knowing she was in danger there this whole time makes me sick. I’m just glad she’s here and we can all look out for her.”

We both look over at my mom, who’s stroking Lily’s hair affectionately and giving her a plate of food. She leans down and kisses the top of her head, and I see Lily’s eyes close. My mom wraps her arms around her, and it warms my heart to know that she’s surrounded by love. My Lily deserves all of it.

It’s pitch black as I tiptoe down the hall to Ren’s room. I silently turn the knob and open the door, closing and locking it behind me.

When I creep over to the bed, I see he’s sleeping. He looks so peaceful.

I pull back the covers and slip under them, pressing my body to his. His big body rolls over to me, wrapping around me as he hums in his sleep. I have to bite my lip to keep from laughing because it’s so adorable. I lean forward, placing a kiss on his chest, and he stirs.

“Lily?” he asks, his voice a little hoarse. “I thought I was dreaming.”

“I couldn’t sleep,” I whisper, burrowing into him more.

“Aww, babe, I missed you, too. But I was trying to give you some space.”

“I don’t want space between us,” I respond, kissing his chest again.

I feel his erection against my belly, and it throbs with each touch of my lips. The heat between my legs flares, and I want him. No, I need him. It was a rough day, and all I’ve done is lie in bed and replay it over and over. I want to make the memories go away, and I know Ren will do that for me. He’ll make me forget all the bad and feel only the good.

“I need you,” I whisper.

He rolls me over and slowly climbs on top. I’m wearing a nightgown, and he pushes it up, revealing my cotton panties. He reaches between us and shoves down the waistband of his sleep shorts and pulls out his cock. I move my panties over to the side and he thrusts his thick cock into me in one fluid motion. My wetness helps him glide in all the way, and he holds himself there, moaning in my ear.

“Fuck, Lily. You’re so warm and soft. So tight,” he breathes heavily in my ear.

We’re still dressed as he starts to thrust in and out of my channel, making my ache for him grow. There’s no better feeling that being full of him, of his love.

“I love you so much, babe. You’re going to be mine forever—my wife, the mother of my babies. All of it.”

I close my eyes, clinging to him. His words are exactly what I want. “I love you too, Ren,” I say, kissing his shoulder.

My climax rises as he moves down and sucks my nipple. I have to stop myself from crying out as I cum hard and fast around him. I clamp down on his cock, his girth stretching me so tight, and waves of pleasure wash over my body. His hot cum fills me up, and I pulse around him, even more turned on by his release.

We kiss softly as we come down and try to catch our breath.

“I want to stay in here tonight,” I say, rubbing my nose against his.

“Then this is where you’ll be,” he answers softly, rolling us over without pulling out of me.

I lie on his chest and close my eyes, sleep taking me fast. Now that I’m with him and I know I’m safe, the worries of the day have melted away.

He takes me twice in the morning before I sneak out of his room and back into mine. I don’t want to be disrespectful of Ren’s parents and their generosity, so hopefully if we can be discreet, we can have the best of both worlds. Because now that I’ve had him, I don’t think I can go a single night without being in his arms.

“What are you doing?” I giggle, smacking at Ren’s hand. He’s been eyeing my outfit all day. Sometimes he looks hungry, and other times he glares like he doesn't like it.

“I’m just buttoning it up.” Ren continues to do one button at a time, his big hands having a hard time with the little buttons on my new pink cardigan.

It’s one I got when I went shopping with Janet last night. She’d gotten off work early and stole me from the hardware store. We stayed at the mall until they practically kicked us out of the place. When we finally got home, both Rick and Ren were sitting out on the cold porch waiting for us. Now we had plans to go get me a cell phone after school because Ren didn’t “like that shit” of not being able to get a hold of me. Janet laughed and said, “Welcome to being with a Hendricks man!”

“I think it’s more for looks. You don’t really button it,” I try to tell him, but he’s clearly not having it. Ren’s hands linger when he gets to one of the buttons that cover the very small amount of cleavage showing. He runs his finger along it before he buttons it, seemingly satisfied now that I’m covered. I really like the new clothes I got, and it’s nice not having to worry so much abo

ut spending a little bit of money on them. It’s nice not to have to worry about saving every single penny trying to get out of my father's house. I know now that as long as I have Ren, I’m safe. I know that every night when I go to bed, I’ll be wrapped around him.

He mumbles something I can’t hear, and I have to fight a laugh.

“Ren, Coach needs you,” someone yells from down the hall. We turn to see Zach from one of our classes standing there. I know he’s on the football team with Ren and they share random head nods at each other when they pass. Neither really says much to the other. A lot of people don’t talk to Ren. I think some try, but his one-word responses don’t leave room for conversation. I think people might fall over and die if they saw how much he talks to me.

“I’m—”

“Go,” I tell him, cutting him off. “I’m going to go to the bathroom and I’ll meet you at our locker.” He glances back over at Zach and I can tell he’s debating it. He’s been in super protective mode since everything went down with my father last weekend. I love that he worries about me, because it’s something I haven’t had in so long. But I also know we can’t always be together. I’m sure when we go off to college next year there will be a lot of times he can’t be directly by my side. It’s something he’s going to have to let go of sooner or later. No matter how much I enjoy it.

He leans down, kissing me on my cheek, the same spot where the bruise from my father had lingered. It’s pretty much gone now. The softness of his kiss melts my insides, like his kisses always do.

“I’ll hurry,” he tells me.

“It’s fine. Take your time.” His mouth covers mine in a quick kiss before he turns to leave. Everyone moves out of his way as he walks down the hallway. I watch him go, and he glances back a few times before he has to turn the corner. I want to laugh. I shake my head and move into the bathroom. When I’m in the stall, I lock the door and take care of business. But before I can step out, I hear some girls come in and start talking trash.
